Miguel Returns, Black Flash Strikes Again!

The battle for Shinjuku intensifies in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 255, bringing unexpected reinforcements, emotional callbacks, and yet another devastating Black Flash from Sukuna. If you’re following the chaos of the Culling Game or looking to read Jujutsu Kaisen manga online, this chapter delivers a thrilling mix of power, loyalty, and tactical nuance. Let’s break it down!

Old Friends, New Resolve: Miguel and Larue Step In

Longtime manga fans may remember Miguel, the enigmatic sorcerer who once clashed with Gojo in the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 movie. Now, he’s back—and this time, he’s brought Larue, both fighting in memory of Suguru Geto.

🛡️ A Strategic Entrance

• Miguel and Larue arrive in Shinjuku to rescue Ui Ui and Kusakabe, just as Sukuna dominates the battlefield.
• Their cursed techniques offer a brief but crucial reprieve—exactly what the battered Jujutsu sorcerers need.

Flashback to Africa: The Mission to Convince Miguel

Before the chaos, Yuta Okkotsu and Larue took a trip to Africa with a simple but daunting mission: convince Miguel to fight the King of Curses. Unsurprisingly, Miguel declined.

“Let Gojo himself ask me,” Miguel demanded—believing even a worn-out Sukuna was too much to handle.

But Larue knew exactly what string to pull: Geto’s memory.

🤝 A Pact of Grief and Strength

• After a heartfelt exchange about their mutual love and loss of Geto, Miguel agrees to fight—not for glory, but as a mourning ritual.
• He lays down strict conditions: he’ll join only after Sukuna defeats both Gojo and Yuta, and only if Sukuna is unable to use his Domain Expansion.

Back in the Present: A Wounded Sukuna, But Still a Threat

Miguel, Larue, and Sukuna engage in a brutal close-quarters fight inside a building. The sorcerers know Sukuna is hurt—but underestimating the King of Curses is never wise.

⚔️ Breaking Down Sukuna’s Condition

According to Miguel and Larue:

• No Domain Expansion available.
• Lower left arm is incomplete.
• Lower right arm is non-functional.
• Heart still healing.
• Reverse Cursed Technique weakened.

💥 Miguel and Larue Tag Team the King

• Larue uses his Heart Catch technique—a virtual hand that can grab and crush targets.
• Miguel relies on Prayer Song, a rhythmic power-up that enhances his strength and wards off curses.
• Sukuna mocks Larue’s technique but seems intrigued by Miguel’s unique style—especially since he doesn’t rely on a Domain.

A Deeper Look: Miguel’s Technique and Gojo’s Praise

In a flashback, Gojo explains Miguel’s combat prowess to Yuta:

• Miguel doesn’t just boost himself—his technique also debuffs enemies without needing a domain.
• Gojo even notes Miguel’s physique gives him an edge over most Japanese sorcerers. Miguel, however, quickly calls this a racist generalization, emphasizing he earned his strength through training, not genetics.

🔥 Gojo’s comparison:

“In a marathon, I’d win. In a sprint? Miguel’s faster.”

Choso, Yuji, and… Another Black Flash?!

As the fight rages on, Sukuna spots Choso preparing an attack from above. He quickly ducks and retaliates with Dismantle, injuring Choso.

Cue the entrance of our protagonist: Yuji Itadori smashes through the ceiling and lands directly on Sukuna!

🖤 Sukuna Strikes Again

• Just when things start turning in the sorcerers’ favor, Maki Zenin reappears and chops off Sukuna’s upper left hand!
• Now severely handicapped, Sukuna is still able to land a second Black Flash—this time, on Larue.

Remember: Gojo recovered his reverse cursed technique after two Black Flashes… and now Sukuna might do the same.

Final Thoughts: Is This the Beginning of Sukuna’s Comeback?

Chapter 255 reminds us why Jujutsu Kaisen remains one of the most gripping titles in the shonen genre. Between emotionally charged alliances and strategic combat, Gege Akutami continues to blend heart and horror with remarkable finesse.
