Summary
Jujutsu Kaisenchapter 265 is just around the corner, and fans cannot wait to see what is next in this incredible final arc of the story. As things stand, fans know thatJujutsu Kaisenis scheduled to end later this year, which means that the battle between Yuji and Sukuna that is currently going on is likely the very last that the manga has to offer.
Jujutsu Kaisenhas seen the Shinjuku Showdown Arcgo on for way too long now, and it is about time that this manga finally finishes up this incredibly intense arc, and then starts focusing on the post-war stuff, which could then set the stage for the conclusion of the series as a whole.JJKchapter 265 has a massive role to play in that regard, as fans believe that this arc is now going to be more intense than ever before, with Yuji’s domain expansion finally being revealed. Unfortunately, fans did not get to see what his domain expansion is truly capable of in the previous chapter, but that is precisely why JJK chapter 265 is of such importance.

Updated on Aug 01, 2025, by Rei Penber: JJK’s Shinjuku Showdown arc is edging closer to its end, and Yuji opening his domain against Sukuna might just be the final push the story needs to wrap up this fight. With the chapter edging closer, we’ve updated the article accordingly.
Yuji And Sukuna In The Domain
Yuji Will Show His Powers In JJK 265
Of course, JJK chapter 265 is going to be completely about Yuji Itadori and Sukuna. It is safe to say that this chapter is going to be more about Yuji than it is going to be about Sukuna. Sukuna has had his moments in the war, and it is safe to say that the author did justice to him and the titlehe carries, King of Curses.He has shown everyone why he is the strongest and why his name alone has rung through centuries of history, all the way to the modern era of Jujutsu Sorcery.Sukuna is a force to be reckoned with. However, at some point, he must fall. That is precisely why Yuji Itadori has an incredibly massive responsibility on his shoulders, which he’s going to fulfill with the usage of his domain expansion.
Domain Expansion. – Yuji Itadori
In JJK’s previous chapter, fans saw Yuji tap into the power of his domain, and it is now time for the readers to see what his domain actually is all about. At this point, fans can’t really predict anything about his domain. Thispower could be completely different from Sukuna’s, and that is down to the fact that the cursed technique they share is different. Even though both of them have the Shrine cursed technique, their usage couldn’t vary more. Sukuna uses indiscriminate slashes to eliminate everyone in his path. Meanwhile, Yuji makes use of precise attacks to cut off what he wants or unsettle his enemies in the most innovative ways. Naturally, this is going to translate to his domain expansion as well in JJK chapter 265, as Yuji unleashes his powerful barrage of attacks.
Curiously enough, fans did get to see Yuji’s power in a way in the previous chapter. As soon as Yuji unleashed his domain, Sukuna was seen at a train station. Sitting on a bench, Sukuna was absolutely dumbfounded because he was inYuji’s body once again. Meanwhile, Yuji approached him and asked him to begin, which might be referring to their battle inside the domain. It is unknown at this point in time whether this train station is a part of Yuji’s domain or if it is just some memory that Yuji has implanted in Sukuna’s brain, just as he has done with the likes of Todo and Choso in the past. Perhaps this power is a part of his domain expansion, or this could also be something similar to what Gojo felt before he died at the hands of the King of Curses. Only JJK chapter 265 is going to provide a proper answer to the fans, and that is precisely why readers are excited.

Yuji’s Sure Hit Domain Attack
Yuji Will Launch A Magnificent Attack On Sukuna
Given that fans will likely not see this domain battle continue for too long, it is absolutely important that Yuji’s domain be fleshed out in JJK chapter 265. It is also worth noting that Yuji’s domain is likely going to be the opposite of Sukuna’s. Where Sukuna’s domain is the Malevolent Shrine,Yuji’s domain could be the Benevolent Shrine.
This could set it apart from Sukuna’s indiscriminate technique, where he firesslashes of Cleave and Dismantleat everything inside the domain until it is completely obliterated. Yuji’s attacks could be more precise and chip away parts of his enemies that he wants to be cut instead. Or, he could use some other rules in his domain that would put him in an advantageous position.

The Sure-Hit inside a domain always lands. – Gojo Satoru
The key here is thatYuji will incorporate his soul-damaging attacksinto whatever technique he launches at Sukuna. This is true for two reasons. The first one is that Yuji has recently learned how to infuse the soul damage into his Dismantle, which he can now fire at the barrier between Sukuna and Megumi’s soul. By doing this, he can make Sukuna throw up the fingers andrip him from Megumi’s body.

The second reason is that Yuji looks to be portrayed as aguide for souls that have no chance at redemptionby the author, and whatever he launches at Sukuna in the upcoming chapter, especially the sure-hit attack, will most definitely land on the King of Curses, and is going to be a mix of a very powerful slicing attack, and at the same time, a technique that deals deadly soul damage.
Sukuna’s Inevitable Fall In JJK Chapter 265
Sukuna Could Be Defeated Soon
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 265 is going to be absolutely incredible because it could set the stage for Sukuna’s fall. Of course, it remains to be seen whether Sukuna will be defeated in this chapter for good or if there is more of his incredible fighting to come. But what fans can say for sure is that hedoesn’t have much left in Megumi’s body.Perhaps Yuji’s attack will rip him from Megumi, which would verify thatSukuna is now utterly defeatedin this battle. This would serve the story in more ways than one. Firstly, it would free Megumi from his grasp and allow him to finally be a character of his own. Secondly, if Sukuna is ripped from Megumi’s body inJJKchapter 265, then fans could see the merger happening finally.
It is imperative for the merger to be utilized now because otherwise, it would have served absolutely no purpose. Thirdly, this would ensure that the King of Curses is ripped from his throne and that, in an act of desperation, he would trigger the merger because, otherwise, he would lose every bit of legacy that he built over the years. This would essentiallyset the stage for the final segment of JJK,where Yuji,Megumi, and just about everyone elsewho has the will to fight will combine to end the King of Curses. In that regard, JJK chapter 265 has an incredibly important role to play, and fans cannot wait to see what it delivers in the coming days.
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 theManga Plusapp. The release date for the next chapter of JJK, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 265, is set to be July 09, 2025.
