Jujutsu Kaisen, Chapter 156
Chapter 156 Summary (Jujutsu Kaisen)
In Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 156, Yuji Itadori enters the Tokyo No.1 Colony and is immediately pulled into combat with other Culling Game players. The environment feels different from past fights since many opponents are newly awakened and rely on unconventional cursed techniques.
Yuji encounters Haba and Hanyu, who attack from the air using cursed energy tools. They keep their distance and try to control the fight through movement and positioning. Instead of rushing in, Yuji watches their pattern and waits for a clear opening.
Once Yuji closes the gap, the fight changes instantly. His close range strength and control take over, breaking their coordination. What looked difficult at first becomes straightforward once he forces the fight into his range.
