Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 85: Domain of Shadows – Sukuna Unleashes His Ultimate Technique Using Megumi’s Body
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 85 escalates the arc’s emotional and visual stakes by introducing one of the most terrifying evolutions yet: Sukuna’s Domain Expansion using Megumi’s Ten Shadows Technique.
The chapter begins with Sukuna activating a twisted version of Chimera Shadow Garden. But this isn’t Megumi’s — it’s corrupted. The once sleek, water-based domain now pulses with spiked cursed energy, drenched in Sukuna’s aura of violence and mockery.
Within it, multiple shikigami appear simultaneously, monstrous in scale and fused with Sukuna’s cursed energy. Shadow wolves with fangs like blades, a grotesque Nue raining cursed lightning, and something even more ominous lurking below the surface.
Yuji, caught inside the domain, fights for survival. His cursed energy flares, fists flying, but he’s clearly outmatched. The domain negates escape and suppresses outside interference—he’s alone. Yet, Yuji doesn’t retreat. He adapts, slipping into the shadows to counter from within, using speed and instinct over brute force.
But Sukuna anticipates everything. With each hit, he taunts Yuji not just physically, but emotionally:
“You couldn’t save him… and now you’re fighting him.”
In a pivotal moment, Yuji hesitates again when he sees Megumi’s face twitch—a subtle, flickering resistance. Is Megumi still fighting back from inside?
That split-second doubt gives Sukuna the edge. He summons a massive, combined shikigami — half Mahoraga, half Divine Dog — and slams it toward Yuji.
But just before it hits, the cursed creature wavers mid-air.
Megumi’s soul pushes back.
The chapter ends with a cracked panel: a glimpse of Megumi inside the void, staring upward with hollow but conscious eyes.
Chapter 85 is explosive, emotional, and brilliantly drawn. It’s not just a fight — it’s the beginning of a rescue mission inside a curse. And Yuji? He’s not just fighting Sukuna anymore. He’s fighting for Megumi’s very existence.
