Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 77: Clash and Consequence
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 77 shifts the spotlight from Yuji’s intense battle to Megumi Fushiguro, who finally enters the barrier with a clear goal: find and protect his sister, Tsumiki, who has mysteriously awakened cursed energy and is now a participant in the Culling Game.
The chapter begins with Megumi’s quiet entry into his assigned colony. It’s eerie—no immediate combat, no opponents in sight—just silence and tension. But that quiet is broken quickly when a strange cursed player confronts him, testing his awareness and reflexes. Using illusion-based cursed techniques, this enemy traps Megumi in a looping hallucination, trying to disorient him mentally before striking physically.
But Megumi, ever the tactician, breaks free using his Ten Shadows Technique, revealing that he’s been conserving strength since the Shibuya arc—and now he’s ready to fight smart, not just hard.
The emotional weight comes when he finally locates Tsumiki—or someone claiming to be her. Her demeanor is off, her voice unfamiliar. Is she being controlled? Is she really awakened? Or worse—was Tsumiki never truly herself to begin with?
Gege Akutami crafts this chapter with an excellent blend of psychological suspense and shonen energy. It’s less about physical confrontation and more about truths being unearthed, and Megumi’s reactions are key to how this emotional arc will unfold.
Meanwhile, the chapter hints at a greater presence watching from the shadows, likely one of Kenjaku’s hidden pieces, tracking Megumi’s every move.
Chapter 77 delivers on mystery, character depth, and haunting setups. Megumi’s mission has never been more personal—and now the line between family and enemy is dangerously thin.
