Expected plot in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 264

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 264 will likely focus on Megumi Fushiguro, perhaps even revealing his awareness of the efforts Yuji and the others have made to rescue him. Despite this, he may still struggle to fight back, even as Jacob's Ladder begins hitting Sukuna.

The chapter should then shift to Yuji and Todo, who will continue calling out to Megumi, urging him to fight. As Sukuna weakens under the relentless attack, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 264 may also explore his desperation and potential strategies to counteract the Cursed Technique.

Given the direct hit from Jacob's Ladder, Sukuna is expected to be significantly weakened, possibly leading to his temporary defeat and the freeing of Megumi. However, the merger Sukuna holds the key to could be triggered, adding another layer of danger as the stage sets up for the next phase of the battle.

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263 recap

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263 begins with the clash between Yuta's Unlimited Void and Sukuna's Malevolent Shrine domains, which simultaneously results in both being shattered. Sukuna comes out of the collision severely burned but confirms that Yuta managed to land Hollow Purple, albeit with limited control.

As Yuta exits the domain, Todo and Yuji join him in attacking Sukuna. Yuta unfortunately collapses due to the strain of using Kenjaku's Cursed Technique, which he couldn't sustain as Kenjaku would. Todo and Yuji then rush to Sukuna. Sukuna uses a Black Flash to break Todo's Vibraslap, but Todo ingeniously activates Boogie Woogie by slapping the Vibraslap against his head.

This allows him to swap positions with the barrier shards floating around, maintaining their assault on Sukuna in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263. Yuji aims his Dismantle attacks at the barrier between Sukuna and Megumi’s souls, causing Sukuna to regurgitate and consume three fingers.

Todo tries to swap positions one more time but seems to fail initially. However, he extends his technique’s range through a Binding Vow, successfully swapping in Hana Kurusu. A flashback reveals that Yuta had asked Hana to use Jacob's Ladder as a final move against Sukuna.

This was done by leveraging Copy's true strength of having two of the same card. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263 concludes with Hana unleashing Angel's Maximum Output: Jacob's Ladder directly at Sukuna.
