Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 239

Yuta Okkotsu strikes from behind and severs Kenjaku’s head in a single, flawless ambush. As his severed head lies on the ground, Kenjaku laughs — revealing that his will, and the rules of the Culling Game he set in motion, will carry on without him. Takaba, utterly exhausted from his performance, collapses as his role in the plan comes to an end.

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 239, titled “Foolish Survivor!!”, marks the fall of the series’ greatest schemer. With Kenjaku dead, Yuta immediately rushes toward Shinjuku to join the fight against Sukuna. The chapter closes the book on a thousand years of manipulation, though Kenjaku’s final smile suggests his contingency may still be in motion.
