Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 15 Recap
Episode 15 of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2, titled "Sway, Part 2," witnessed the resurrection of Toji who managed to snatch Playful Cloud from Maki and in collaboration with Naobito Zen'in, successfully defeated Dagon. As Dagon's Domain vanished, Toji swiftly rescued Megumi from the confines of the building and relocated him onto the busy street.
Elsewhere, Jogo discovered the remains of Dagon. In a fit of rage, he mercilessly set Nanami and Maki ablaze before ultimately defeating Naobito. Soon after, he reached Nanako and Mimiko, who successfully revived Sukuna by offering Yuji a finger. To further empower Sukuna, Jogo provided him with ten additional fingers. Once Sukuna took control of Yuji, the twins pleaded for him to eliminate Kenjaku and release Geto from his grasp.
In response to their plea, Sukuna callously murdered the twins. Notably, Jogo implored Sukuna to make a Binding Vow with Yuji, allowing the curse to permanently dominate the young boy. In reply, Sukuna declared that if Jogo managed to strike him, he would unleash utter devastation upon Shibuya, sparing only one human life.
What to Expect from Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 16
In Episode 15, the last page of chapter 109 was adapted, as well as chapters 110-112. Episode 16 is expected to cover chapters 113-116, featuring Megumi's confrontation with Toji and Sukuna's encounter with Jogo. It may also touch on chapter 117, which includes a flashback involving Gojo.
The upcoming episode, titled "Rainbow", based on the preview, will likely center on the fight between Toji and Megumi, as well as its resolution.
In addition, the episode will feature Sukuna's Fire technique, a subject of extensive discussions since its introduction in the manga. Depending on Mappa's decision to accelerate the narrative, it may also unveil Megumi's long-awaited trump card, hinted at since the series' inaugural episode.
Editor's P/S
As a passionate fan of Jujutsu Kaisen, I am eagerly anticipating the release of Episode 16. The previous episode left us with a major cliffhanger, as Sukuna was resurrected and unleashed his devastating power. I am excited to see how the battle between Sukuna and Jogo unfolds, and whether Jogo will be able to strike Sukuna and trigger the Binding Vow. I am also curious to see how Megumi will fare against his father, Toji, and whether he will be able to overcome this challenge.
Overall, I am very excited for the upcoming episode of Jujutsu Kaisen. The series has been consistently delivering high-quality animation, engaging storytelling, and memorable characters, and I am confident that Episode 16 will continue this trend. I can't wait to see what the future holds for this thrilling anime series.
