What to expect in Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 episode 5

The upcoming episode will start by adapting chapter 76, wherein a new character will be introduced, named Tsukumo Yuki, who's also a Special Grade sorcerer just like Geto Suguru and Gojo Suguru. However, her ideals do not align with the higher-ups at Jujutsu High.

An interesting conversation between her and Geto Suguru will spark certain thoughts in him. One might even say that these were the seeds that were sowed back when he was in Jujutsu High which led to him becoming a criminal. Geto hated being a shaman and wanted to kill every single person who didn’t utilize curse energy.

This genocidal plan of his was not approved by Gojo Satoru. During a mission, which will most likely be shown in Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 episode 5, he will kill non-sorcerers and end up breaking the law. Geto Suguru will be branded as a criminal who would need to be executed on sight.

Gojo Satoru will manage to encounter Geto in Shinjuku after being branded as a criminal. The latter will challenge Gojo’s ideals. Just when it would look like that the two are about to engage in a fight, Gojo would stop since he can't hurt his best friend. The upcoming episode of Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 will be quite interesting as it will explore the difference in the duo's ideals.
