What To Expect From The Chapter

Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 246 is just around the corner, thanks to the manga returning from a break week recently. Fans can rest assured that the manga will continue into the next week before heading on a break for the holiday. JJK fans are incredibly excited for the story to continue as the amazing battles that the fans have gotten to witness over the course of the last few chapters continue to ramp up.

In the previous chapter, quite a lot of focus was thrown on the battle between Sukuna and the duo of Yuji and Higuruma. This battle is most definitely going to continue into JJK chapter 246 as well and that is something that has fans very excited.

Sukuna’s Counter Attack

JJK chapter 246 will most definitely see a lot of Sukuna. In the previous chapter, Sukuna was certainly not all that much on the offensive. The vast majority of the focus was thrown on Deadly Sentencing, using which Sukuna got his Cursed Tool confiscated. The heroes had hoped that Sukuna’s cursed technique would be confiscated and, if that were to have happened, then the battle would have become a tad easier. Unfortunately, Higuruma did not know the rules of his very own domain as well as he would have liked and this resulted in a grave miscalculation.

Instead of Sukuna’s cursed technique being confiscated, it was his cursed tool that was taken away from him and his incredible ability to cut and dice people still exists, as was seen immediately after the domain was ended.

Sukuna launched an extremely powerful attack on his nearby enemies, slashing and hacking at every single one of them. Taking a closer look at Sukuna, it is clear to see that he’s making hand signs that amp up the power of his attacks. As such, fans should expect Sukuna to launch powerful attacks at his enemies in JJK chapter 246 and these attacks are likely going to be much stronger, thanks to his ability to use incantations and hand signs all the while he is fighting.

4 vs 1 Battle Begins

It was clear for the fans to see at the end of JJK chapter 245 that the battle has now turned from 2 versus 1 to a 4 versus 1. Kusakabe As well as Ino likely have joined the battle and they have reunited with Yuji and Higuruma. This has effectively changed the battlefield in many ways and now, Sukuna is up against four enemies. This isn’t a worry for him, given that he is the strongest of all time and his level of strength is far beyond what these four characters possess. This is more true now than ever before, especially because he is currently in his true form. While he might have lost his cursed tool, Sukuna is still incredibly overpowered and it should be expected of him to dominate these four in battle in the next chapter.

Fans will likely see Sukuna’s speed as well as his power on full display in JJK chapter 246. Given that he has four arms and the ability to use incantations while fighting, his enemies are going to be on the ropes. Furthermore, if he were to launch his world slashing attacks, then fans might even end up seeing some deaths in the upcoming chapter of JJK, as much as they would want for that to not happen. All doors are open for the upcoming chapter of JJK and it is only a matter of time before spoilers drop and fans find out what ends up happening in the next few chapters of the story.

The Executioner’s Sword

A major plot point that is likely going to be tackled in JJK chapter 246 is Higuruma’s fight against Sukuna using the Executioner’s Sword. As fans know, Sukuna was sentenced to death in the previous chapter using the Executioner’s Sword. Higuruma was able to get his hands on this powerful weapon that could kill in one strike and, at the same time, Sukuna’s cursed tool was confiscated as well. Sukuna himself was very interested in seeing the Executioner’s Sword in action. Now, Higuruma has the sword in his hand and it is going to be interesting to see how he feels it and combat.

Here’s why Satoru Gojo must return to the JJK story.

Curiously, Higuruma heard an inner voice telling him if he wanted to die in the previous chapter and this might actually serve as a red flag for this character to eventually end up dying.

Fans know that Gege doesn’t shy away from killing off his characters and this might just be a major hint for Higuruma to end up dying. Sukuna is incredibly strong and he might want to test his cutting techniques against the power of the Executioner’s Sword, which is known to kill in one blow. What ends up happening here is something that fans are very interested in and, hopefully, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 246 will deliver on this end.

Yuji’s Newfound Strength

Of course, while Higuruma is at the center of attention at the moment, fans absolutely cannot forget about Yuji. He is the protagonist of the series and it is a known fact that he is going to be the biggest enemy that Sukuna will face from here onwards. Yuji is quite powerful now and his strength is likely to keep on growing even further. He has already surprised Sukuna with a powerful punch that he was forced to block previously and fans certainly have not seen the best of Yuji just yet. As such, fans should also keep an eye out for Yuji in JJK chapter 246.

Given that the battle is a 4 versus 1 now, it is likely that all of them will attack Sukuna at once and this will give them a numerical advantage over him and possibly allow them to land more blows. Yuji has displayed his new ability capable of shaking Sukuna to his very core earlier and, perhaps, this ability will be in full swing in the upcoming chapter as well. Curiously, fans also do not know what this ability is and how Yuji got access to it. Sakuna is also unaware of where he got this power from. Perhaps, JJK chapter 246 will see to it that this incredible ability gets explored to the fullest. Fans are very curious to know where Yuji got this power from and what exactly it is and, hopefully, the upcoming chapter is going to delve deeper into this.

There is also a big chance that JJK chapter 246 will focus on the continued clash between Uraume and Hakari, however, it must be remembered that the center of attention at this moment is Sukuna himself. Fans are desperate to see him showcase the limits of his reincarnated form and, as such, every other clash going on right now is secondary.

Jujutsu Kaisen is available to read via Viz Media. The series can be read by the fans officially and for free on the Shonen Jump and the Manga Plus app. The release date for the next chapter of JJK, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 246, is set to be December 24, 2023.
