Exploring Hakari's Intentions: The Prolonged Battle with Uraume in Jujutsu Kaisen

The Jujutsu Kaisen manga is currently one of the most popular series, with intense battles between ****sorcerers and Ryomen Sukuna, the King of Curses, stealing the spotlight. Despite Sukuna's victories due to his strength and abilities, another significant fight is happening in Shinjuku - Kinji Hakari's battle with Uraume.

Hakari is known as a highly skilled student sorcerer in Jujutsu Kaisen, and fans have been eagerly awaiting his showdown with the formidable Uraume. While not as powerful as Kenjaku or Sukuna, this battle provides a great opportunity for Hakari to showcase his abilities. However, the fight has been dragging on for quite some time, leading fans to question if Hakari is deliberately stalling.

Exploring if Hakari is dragging his battle with Uraume on purpose in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga

Some fans have been wondering whether Hakari is intentionally prolonging his fight with Uraume in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga. This article will delve into this theory and explore the reasons behind it.

In the recent chapter 252 of the manga, there were some panels showing Uraume and Kinji Hakari having a conversation while they were fighting. Uraume mentioned that Kinji's Cursed Technique and confidence were "absurd." This sparked a lot of discussions among fans about the current state of the battle because the author, Gege Akutami, has not revealed many details of what is happening in this part of the story arc.

Uraume and Hakari have probably not revealed the full extent of their powers to each other. However, it wouldn't be wise to prolong this battle. Uraume would want to help Ryomen Sukuna as soon as possible, and Hakari would want to do the same for his friends. Therefore, neither of them benefits from continuing to fight each other.

They have likely been assessing each other's strengths at the moment. Uraume has been impressed by Hakari's high levels of Cursed Energy and the quality of his Reverse Cursed Technique, showing that she did not know much about him beforehand. It is challenging to imagine them fighting at their best yet, as Hakari has not utilized his Domain Expansion, and it would be reasonable to assume that Uraume has one as well, although the full extent of her abilities has not been revealed in the manga.

In the upcoming chapters of the Jujutsu Kaisen manga, we can expect to see a shift towards focusing more on the battle between Uraume and Hakari. This is because Uraume is a minor antagonist and it would make sense to conclude this battle before the main showdown between the remaining ****sorcerers and Shinji Hakari.

Final moments

Additionally, it's doubtful that Hakari will keep on battling after this fight. There's a strong possibility that this could be his final significant appearance in the series, regardless of the outcome. Akutami seems to have a fondness for the character and has arranged for him to face off against Uraume to showcase his skills as a sorcerer, potentially concluding his storyline on a fulfilling note.

There is no evidence in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga to indicate that Hakari is intentionally prolonging the fight with Uraume. Both characters likely want to finish the battle quickly so they can assist their allies. Therefore, dragging out the fight on purpose would not be a wise choice for either of them.

Editor's P/S:

The article delves into the ongoing battle between Hakari and Uraume in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga, exploring the theory that Hakari may be intentionally prolonging the fight. While the author presents some intriguing points, I find it difficult to fully agree with the notion that Hakari is deliberately stalling.

The article suggests that Hakari and Uraume have not yet revealed the full extent of their powers, and that they may be assessing each other's strengths. However, given the urgency of the situation, it seems unlikely that either character would waste time unnecessarily. Both Hakari and Uraume have allies who need their assistance, and prolonging the fight would only benefit their opponents. Moreover, Hakari has already demonstrated his impressive abilities, including his high levels of Cursed Energy and the quality of his Reverse Cursed Technique. It would be reasonable to expect that he would use his full power to end the fight as soon as possible.
