Chapter 239 of Jujutsu Kaisen introduces Takaba, a comedian-turned-sorcerer who becomes an unexpected wild card. With his curse technique known as the "Comedian," Takaba has the ability to transform his witty thoughts into reality. However, he is unaware of the full potential of his unique powers.
This power, which is said to be on par with characters like Gojo, turned him into a formidable opponent and introduced an element of unpredictability to the ongoing battles. JJK chapter 239 confirmed a showdown between Takaba and Kenjaku, further highlighting Yuta's mysterious absence from the current events. Even though Yuta was initially set up to be the one to face Kenjaku, it ended up being Takaba who took on the challenge.
