In Jujutsu Kaisen episode 44, titled "Right and Wrong, Part 3," Mahito pursued Yuji and unlocked the Black Flash. Despite wanting to continue attacking Yuji, Aoi Todo intervened to save his brother. Meanwhile, Arata Nitta used his ability to prevent Nobara and Yuji's injuries from worsening, increasing Nobara's chance of survival from zero.
Despite having given up on fighting Mahito, Yuji was encouraged by Todo to rejoin the battle, leading to a two-on-one confrontation where all three fighters pushed themselves to draw out 120% of their potential.
Elsewhere, Mechamaru bid farewell to Kasumi Miwa as she and the Kyoto Jujutsu Tech students were headed towards Shibuya.
What to expect from Jujutsu Kaisen episode 45?

It is anticipated that episode 45 of Jujutsu Kaisen will feature the resolution of the intense battle involving Yuji and Todo facing off against Mahito. As Mahito employs his powerful Soul Multiplicity: Body Repel, the outcome of the fight remains uncertain.
As the Kyoro Jujutsu Tech students make their way to Shibuya, fans can anticipate their arrival to assist Yuji and Todo in the impending battle. On the other hand, the next episode may shift its focus to Pseudo-Geto, who has been notably absent since Satoru Gojo was sealed inside the Prison Realm.
Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z fan of Jujutsu Kaisen, I am eagerly anticipating the release of season 2 episode 21. The previous episode left us on a cliffhanger, with Yuji and Todo joining forces to battle the formidable Mahito. I can't wait to see how their fight unfolds and whether they will be able to defeat him. I also hope to learn more about Mahito's backstory and motivations.
I appreciate the anime's faithfulness to the manga, and I am impressed with the quality of the animation and voice acting. The fight scenes are particularly well- choreographed and visually stunning. I also enjoy the character development and the exploration of themes such as friendship, loyalty, and the nature of good and evil. Overall, I am very excited for the upcoming episode and can't wait to see what it has in store for us.
