Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 237 surpassed expectations following the shocking demise of Satoru Gojo in chapter 236. Mangaka Gege Akutami not only raises the stakes by bringing back the original Heian Era Sukuna, but also delivers another devastating blow to the fandom by seemingly killing off Megumi Fushiguro. In the previous chapter, Gojo encountered Geto, Nanami, Haibara, and others in a surreal afterlife, confessing that Sukuna proved too powerful for him. However, in reality, Mahoraga managed to master Infinity flawlessly, resulting in Gojo being cut in half vertically. Right after Gojo's demise, Hajime Kashimo enters the Battlefield.
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 237 is titled “Inhuman Makyo Shinjuku Showdown, Part 14.”

Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 237 commenced with Kashimo leaping into battle from a towering height of 203 meters. However, Uraume, known as the Frozen Star, maintained a position of dominance atop a massive ice block high above Kashimo. Surpassing Uraume's altitude, Hakari materialized and ensnared both individuals within his Domain Expansion, only for Uraume to swiftly unleash the power of Ice formation.

During a discussion about strength, Kashimo unveiled his Cursed Technique, known as Mythical Beast Amber. This Technique allowed him to reconstruct his body, enhancing his agility, speed, and awareness. Additionally, it empowered him to release destructive electromagnetic waves. However, after utilizing the Technique, Kashimo would experience the physical repercussions of its termination.
Utilizing this Technique, Kashimo successfully struck Sukuna multiple times without suffering any counterattacks. This forced Sukuna to further transform into his original Heian-era form, a transformation that he had deliberately refrained from and could only be achieved without employing the Reversed Cursed Technique once.
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 237 Analysis
Expand Tweet
In Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 237, there are several important points to consider. Firstly, the fate of Megumi is a prominent question. It is evident that Sukuna did not heal Megumi's body before transforming, suggesting that he no longer had any use for him or that Megumi's body would become merged with Heian-Era Sukuna automatically.
Regardless, Megumi is either deceased or severely injured. Sukuna seemed to have saved this transformation as a final option, possibly because once it is complete, Megumi will no longer possess his original body and will lose all abilities associated with the Ten Shadows Technique.
It is speculated that Sukuna relied more on Megumi's technique to overpower Gojo rather than his own physical form. However, with his vessel now permanently ruined, he has decided to take a gamble by utilizing his original body in the battle against Kashimo. The intended function of Kamutoke and the timing of Yorozu's creation of it remain unclear, but it is possible that it played a role in the transformation process.
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 237 also introduces a potential matchup between Hakari and Uraume, which is expected to unfold alongside the Sukuna vs. Kashimo fight. Uraume, like Kashimo, is shrouded in mystery, or perhaps even more so. Many fans have speculated that Hakari may have undergone training with Kashimo to acquire mastery over his Domain. The upcoming battle between Hakari and Uraume will serve as a testament to this theory.
Final thoughts
In Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 237, the fate of Megumi has stirred up quite a controversy. It is indeed fascinating to witness the mangaka Akutami's intriguing decision to remove the deuteragonist after removing the series' arguably most beloved character just the week before.
In addition to Sukuna's reappearance, the current major battle lacks significant emotional connection. Hakari and Kahsimo are not characters that readers have supported as strongly as Gojo or Megumi.
Since the emotional element has been completely removed after Chapter 237 of Jujutsu Kaisen, Akutami needs to ensure that readers are invested in the ongoing battles for the sake of the story. It is hoped that Chapter 238 will primarily concentrate on the battle and not introduce the death of another beloved character, which may be difficult for readers to accept.
