Hiromi Higuruma had a brilliant performance in Jujutsu Kaisen, but alas, the author decided to end his journey.
The final chapter of 2023 in Jujutsu Kaisen delivered a spectacular showdown for fans. Chapter 247 focused on Hiromi Higuruma and his astounding display.
Gege Akutami portrayed the character of Higuruma excellently, impressing even the Curse King Sukuna. However, in a tragic turn of events, Higuruma joins the list of 'characters whose lives were tragically cut short,' sparking heated debates among fans.
The potential for Hiromi Higuruma to become the next Gojo Satoru
Higuruma's journey has captured the imaginations of fans, following his continuous growth and impressive feats as a sorcerer. His abilities are no secret, drawing the attention of Kenjaku.
The battle with Sukuna further highlights Higuruma's exceptional potential. Sukuna has acknowledged Higuruma as a worthy adversary. In theory, he could even reach the level of Gojo Satoru.
Despite only possessing cursed technique, Higuruma has shown impressive mastery within a remarkably short period. In just two months, he has surpassed grade 1 sorcerers and seems on the verge of reaching special grade sorcerer status.
His understanding of cursed energy progresses to the point where he can decipher and reverse complex domains, a feat reserved for the most talented individuals in the sorcery world. However, Higuruma's meteoric rise abruptly halts, leaving fans lamenting a talent now part of history.
Epic Clash: Higuruma versus Sukuna
In chapter 247 of Jujutsu Kaisen, readers witnessed the terrifying showdown between Hiromi Higuruma and the Curse King Sukuna. With his Executioner's Blade and curse power, Higuruma showcased remarkable abilities, including seizing Sukuna's cursed tools.
Despite being at a disadvantage, Higuruma quickly learns to defend himself against Sukuna's powerful attacks, leaving the villain astonished.
Higuruma also demonstrates a special ability to regenerate and even injure Sukuna, yet the overwhelming power of the ultimate Curse King still holds sway. Sukuna's attack intensity is so strong that even when Higuruma employs reverse cursed technique, he cannot continue the fight. Higuruma's death comes as a shock to fans, marking the end of a remarkably promising character.
Higuruma's Legacy and Yuji's Future
Higuruma's death in chapter 247 is a shocking and disappointing moment for many manga followers. His relatively brief involvement in the story, albeit intense, leaves readers wanting more.
The decision to end Higuruma's story prematurely without fully exploring his character is a bold move by Gege Akutami. This reflects the trend of Jujutsu Kaisen, introducing promising characters but not delving deep into them, preventing fans from becoming attached.
With Higuruma's demise, the responsibility falls back on Yuji. This echoes what Nanami did earlier, placing Yuji in a crucial position in the battle against Sukuna. Readers eagerly await the next chapters to see how Yuji will face this daunting challenge.
