Chapter 247 recap

Chapter 247 of Jujutsu Kaisen opened with Sukuna realizing that Hiromi Higuruma possess the same skill level in wielding his own Cursed Technique as he does. Sukuna then verified Higuruma’s name before launching an attack, which also resulted in separating Yuji Itadori from them. Although Yuji managed to make his way back, Sukuna swiftly threw him aside again after landing a powerful blow on Yuji’s shoulder.
Following this, Sukuna executed a full-power Dismantle at Higuruma, severing his arm in the process. When Higuruma refused to heal himself, Sukuna then proceeded to slice off Higuruma’s other arm, commanding him to learn Reverse Cursed Technique and heal himself, or face death. This prompted Higuruma to reassess his role in the ongoing fight. Sukuna was then unexpectedly attacked by Choso, which gave the now-healed Higuruma an opportunity to counterattack.
While Higuruma did manage to stab Sukuna through the hand, he made the bold decision to cut off his own hand before the attack could actually land. During this intense moment, Higuruma vividly recalled his conversation with Kusakabe about the tendency of curses to become even more formidable after death, just as Sukuna delivered a lethal blow. However, the situation took an unexpected turn when Yuji suddenly reappeared, swiftly seized the Executioner's Sword from Higuruma, and seemingly drove it into Sukuna's back.
What to expect (speculative)
The presumed death of Higuruma and Yuji now holding the Executioner’s Sword sets the stage for an exhilarating and long-awaited duel in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 248. Fans can look forward to Yuji incorporating his own Cursed Technique into the fight, as well as finally receiving a thorough and official explanation of what it entails.
In chapter 248 of Jujutsu Kaisen, Higuruma's fate will likely be confirmed, with the possibility of his untimely death. However, there is a chance of survival due to his newfound knowledge of the Reverse Cursed Technique, leaving his status a compelling mystery for the upcoming chapter.
