Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 55 kicks the Yuji and Nobara vs Mahito battle into high gear, delivering pulse-pounding action, brilliant teamwork, and one of the most satisfying sequences in the Shibuya Incident arc so far. This chapter showcases how far both young sorcerers have come — and how terrifying they are when in sync.
After the shocking reveal of Mahito splitting his soul across two bodies, Yuji and Nobara adapt fast. Instead of panicking, they push forward — using the strange soul connection to attack both bodies simultaneously, weakening Mahito from within.
Nobara’s Resonance technique becomes the linchpin of their strategy. She targets Mahito’s clone directly, causing internal reverberations that strike the original. Mahito, caught off guard, starts to lose his composure. And for once, his trademark grin fades into genuine panic.
Yuji doesn’t miss a beat. He capitalizes on Mahito’s confusion with raw, furious blows. The chapter highlights the synergy between Yuji’s brute force and Nobara’s precise, cursed energy manipulation. Their bond isn’t just emotional — it’s tactical. Together, they begin overwhelming Mahito in a way no one has done before.
Gege Akutami’s artwork shines here. Every punch, nail strike, and reaction shot is filled with tension and kinetic energy. The choreography of the fight is beautifully construct, flowing smoothly between perspectives while still capturing the brutality of each moment.
But just when it feels like victory is within reach, Mahito starts retreating — a dangerous sign. His strategic mind is still intact, and readers are reminded that Mahito is never out of options. He’s a cursed spirit who learns and evolves under pressure.
Still, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 55 stands out as a rare moment of triumph during the bleakness of Shibuya. It’s a celebration of growth, partnership, and perseverance. For once, the cursed energy is flowing in the right direction — and Mahito knows it.
