Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 244 will deliver the highly anticipated showdown between Yuji and Sukuna. The previous chapter entertained with the humorous fight between Kenjaku and Takaba, culminating in a surprise attack by Yuta.
Yuta delivers a fatal blow to Kenjaku and swiftly beheads the curse, leaving fans to ponder if this marks the conclusion of Kenjaku's journey. This intense moment captivated JJK fans, but there are still more surprises in store for the fandom. As Sukuna and Yuji's showdown unfolds, anticipation is high for what the upcoming chapter will bring.
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 244 to feature Yuji and Higuruma vs. Sukuna
In the 244th chapter of JJK, the focus shifts from Yuta and Kenjaku to Yuji and Sukuna as the former heads toward the battlefield with Higuruma. A flashback shows every sorcerer preparing a plan against the king of curses. Kusakabe suggests they decide who should jump in the fight and who should stay behind. However, Kashimo interrupts, calling it an all-out war and believing that everyone should be given a chance to fight Sukuna.
Kusakabe reveals that Miwa has sworn to never engage in combat. Shortly after, they discuss the consequences of Kenjaku's death at the hands of Yuta if Gojo is defeated. Naritoshi expresses remorse for not joining the fight, prioritizing the safety of his family and not wanting them to endure hardship.
Kusakabe then invites those with the ability to use RCT and the willingness to sacrifice themselves in battle to step forward, with the others taking a back seat. Yuji attempts to comfort Kamo by expressing gratitude for his support and noting Choso's poor teaching. Higuruma decides to pursue Kashimo in order to use his CT to capture Sukuna's CT.
Not feeling confident, Kashimo questions, "Do you really think I'll lose? I'm getting angry." Hakari acknowledges him for allowing Gojo a significant role.
Imposing the death penalty
Kashimo inquires Higuruma about the possibility of using the death penalty on Sukuna with his CT, but Yuji indicates that the decision ultimately rests with Judgeman. He further asserts that Higuruma is unable to take any action in this matter. The boy notes that Sukuna has caused multiple fatalities whenever he has taken over.
Higuruma provides a detailed account of his crimes, starting with the possession of Yuji and the brutal murder of Yuji Itadori by the evil curse (whose good deeds brought him back to life). He then proceeds to list the murders he has committed, including that of Gojo Satoru.
Following this, Higuruma confesses to possessing and harming Megumi, using his body to steal a dead body. He claims that the Judgeman will surely sentence the enemy to death if all these actions are considered, but notes that his CT only focuses on one crime at a time.
After the sorcerers' discussion, the scene shifts to the battleground where Sukuna has annihilated Mei Mei's birds. She remembers that her birds were useless against Sukuna, Gojo, and Kenjaku.
She begins by distracting the king of curses to give Higuruma time to break Sukuna’s posture with his hammer, while Yuji throws debris at him. Higuruma then prevents Sukuna from using his weapon temporarily. When Yuji lands a heavy punch on Sukuna, his body starts to shiver.
Higuruma then activates Deadly Sentencing, leading to a flashback scene where Yuji asks if they can use the evidence from the Shibuya fight to prove Sukuna guilty to the Judgeman. However, things take a wrong turn when the trial begins and the Judgeman suspects Yuji of the Shibuya killings. Higuruma defends Yuji, but the chapter ends before Judgeman's final verdict can be given.

Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z fan, I am thrilled about the upcoming showdown between Yuji and Sukuna in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 244. The series has been building up to this moment for quite some time, and I can't wait to see how it all plays out.
Yuji and Sukuna are two of the most powerful characters in the series, and their battle is sure to be epic. I'm also excited to see how the other characters, such as Higuruma and Kashimo, will factor into the fight. I think this chapter will be a turning point in the series, and I can't wait to see what happens next.
