Recap of Chapter 176

In Chapter 176, titled “Sendai Colony (Part 3),” it was revealed that Takako Uro’s Cursed technique allowed her to turn the sky into a surface and manipulate it at will. She used it on Yuta to redirect his attacks.

However, Yuta refused to fight her. Instead, he asked her why she sought him out for a fight when she was so strong. Uro then revealed that all the reincarnated sorcerers have returned from Hell, and they all have regrets.

Kenjaku apparently gave them a chance at a second life in the form of the Culling Game. However, since no one knew what his motive was, they thought it was prudent to collect as many points as possible to be safe.

Just as Yuta told her that he couldn’t understand her logic, Uro got a flashback of someone from her past. She asked Yuta if he belonged to the Fujiwara Clan and started to get angry.

However, Ishigori chose that moment to attack them with his Granite Blast. His Cursed Technique allowed him to shoot devastating beams of energy from his cannon-like hair.

Both Uro and Yuta decided to fight Ishigori. Yuta used the hole he had made in the ground to appear behind Ishigori as they prepared for their fight.

What to expect in Chapter 177

Yuta is still unaware of the proceedings of Tokyo Colony No. 1, and Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 177 will be a prime opportunity for Akutami to sync the two Colonies. If Yuta manages to kill both Uro and Ishigori, he will have 50 points, on par with Megumi.

However, from his playful demeanor, Ishigori seems to be a mix of Higuruma and Takaba and could become an ally to Yuta. In that case, the lattermost stands a chance to obtain his powers.

Uro can also ally herself with Yuta, albeit reluctantly. However, she would be less likely to hand over her points.

Uro’s relationship with the Fujiwara clan is undisclosed. It is possible that Michizane was from this clan, and Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 177 may explore more of the Heian Period through flashbacks of his interactions with Uro.

Although, as many readers have pointed out, Sugawara no Michizane was from the Sugawara clan. It is unclear how they are related to the Fujiwara clan or to the Toh, where Uro served as a general.

It has not yet been clarified whether Ishigori is a modern or past sorcerer. His Cursed Technique is yet to be fully explained, as is his history with the Culling Game and Kenjaku.

The statement that every Jujutsu Sorcerer dies with regret has been proved once again. However, how Akutami plans to expand upon it can only be seen in Chapter 177.
