Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 265

Inside his domain, Yuji takes Sukuna on a quiet walk through his childhood hometown of Kitakami — the park where he played as a boy, the pond where they catch crayfish, the farm his grandfather once took him to, even a round of archery where Sukuna’s ancient skill shines. Sukuna walks in silence as Yuji shares ordinary, precious memories, hoping to reach whatever humanity remains in the King of Curses.

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 265, “That Day”, builds to a devastating confrontation of ideals. Yuji explains that a person’s worth lies in the small memories they leave in others, and begs Sukuna to release Megumi. Enraged at being pitied, Sukuna vows to slaughter everyone Yuji loves before his eyes. Mercy has failed — only battle remains.
