Yuji’s Final Words to Sukuna Represent His Character Arc Throughout Jujutsu Kaisen
Created by Gege Akutami, Chapter #268 “Settling Matters”
When Mahito first says the musical phrase " You are me , " to Yuji in chapter # 126 , he does so compare how Yuji economise people without a second thinking to how he kills multitude without a thought . This culminate inYuji eventually accepting his role as a cogin the machine whose only role is to kill curse word , which is reflect when he tells Mahito " I ’m you , " before killing him . He even claims he does not require to see substance or reason and will merely express out his purpose .
Yuji ’s use of the phrase in the late chapter is a callback to this very minute during Shibuya , except now Yuji has rejected his theatrical role as a sprocket tax with continuously killing curse . As he reveals in chapter # 265 , Yuji now seems to sympathize that humans do n’t come with a foreordain role . Moreover , throughout the entire collage of taking Sukuna through his domain of a function , Yuji explains how signification and value can be found even in the smallest of things in aliveness .
He also seems to infer that Sukuna perhaps became a monster because of his circumstance and poor fortune , so he understand with Sukuna even though he hates him . Thus , when Yuji offers Sukuna the alternative to give up , he may beoffering him the chance to bump real value in life through these modest things instead of the specialty he has always relied on , to live even if he is weak using Yuji as his host .

Sukuna’s Ending Makes Sense Given His Established Ideals in Jujutsu Kaisen
Sukuna’s Final Moments Mirror Mahito in Many Ways
Though misfortunate and anticlimactic , it comes asno surprisal that Sukuna chose to conk out rather than give up his prideand populate amicably with Yuji . Sukuna stuck to his ideals until the blistering close and his nonsuch are ironically the very reason he met the end he did . Over the course of the report , Jujutsu Kaisenhas carefully set out Sukuna ’s nihilistic philosophy , which was befittingly first explore through Mahito .
As early on as chapter # 21 , Mahito talk of the town to Junpei about not abiding by a restrictive doctrine and say Junpei to eat if he ’s hungry and kill if he hate someone . Sukuna mirrors the same sentiment in chapter # 248 when he claims he eats when he wants to , dally with whatever amuses him , and shoot down whoever receive in his way .
In Sukuna ’s event , he may have turned to hisstrength as the only thing he could trust onbecause of the inauspicious life he ’s pass , which is imply through him being forced to eat up his similitude in the uterus and refer to himself as a creepy , undesirable child . As such , Sukuna drift aside his humanity and became a curse , or better yet , a monster who only hold out for the tingle of press and testing that potency and does n’t see any tangible value in life beyond that .
AfterHiguruma ’s ill-timed death , Sukuna even displays a uncommon moment of introspection where he claims that heonly come across fight as a way to pass time until he dies . Sukuna also notably states that he has never thought of relying on someone else to fulfill him . As seen in chapter # 181 , Sukuna see overwhelming aggressiveness and a complete neglect for others as the only style to truly be the strongest , which is a cardinal paper inJujutsu Kaisenwhere being the strongest is equated to becoming a " monster " .
Of course , his refusal to rely on someone else is especially ironic pass on thatSukuna was defeatedand go because of his demand to rely on another as a innkeeper for his soul . At the end of it all , the only reason both Mahito and Sukuna were capable to abide by this way of thinking and go alone for the flush of fighting and killing is their strong point . However , Mahito ’s strength dilapidate in the face of Yuji ’s finding at Shibuya , which is when he felt pure fright for the first prison term .
Like Mahito , Sukuna also revere end in his final moments when his long suit at long last fails him . Without his strength , all he has left is his pride , which is why he chooses to break rather than give up his ideals and acknowledge the value in biography that Yuji has tried to show him through his area . Instead of living by relying on Yuji ’s mercy , which he equates to impuissance and being human , Sukuna chooses to perish as a curse ; as the monster he had turned himself into . befittingly , in the end , Yuji may have been the one to teach Sukuna about love and compassion in the death through his empathy .
