Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 166 recap
Chapter 166 begins by giving the viewers some insight into Higurama’s past back when he was a young apprentice lawyer. The judge’s hammer morphs into a beautiful sword, and the death penalty is the harshest sentence he can give. This sentence is used to completely disable the curse energy.
Higurama firmly believes that humans are inferior, and trying to understand them would mean accepting their flaws. The two characters engage in fierce combat. The panel transitions back to a scene that was shown on the first page. Higurama is seen empathizing with Yuuji Itadori. Higurama passes the judgment and believes that Itadori is innocent and goes on to substantiate his argument.
