Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 245 was expected to reveal the result of Yuji and Higuruma’s gamble against Sukuna, and the spoilers coming out today confirmed it. The official translation is set to be released on Monday, December 18, 2023, at 12 a.m. JST in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump issue 3.

In the previous chapter, Higuruma and Yuji concocted a gamble against Sukuna to force him into a trial. Yuji Attacked Sukuna while Higuruma stalled his weapon and cast his domain Deadly Sentencing. They staged a retrial for Yuji where Judgeman accused him of committing the Shibuya Massacre, but Higuruma interrupted it.

Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 245 spoilers and raw scans reveal the continuation of Hakari vs. Uraume as Sukuna bypasses Higuruma’s Domain

According to the spoilers, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 245 is titled “Inhuman Makyo Shinjuku Showdown, Part 17.”

According to the spoilers, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 245 begins with Uraume using Frost Calm on Hakari, freezing his arm and shattering it. Frost Clam is the essence of Ice formation, which imbues the target with overwhelming frozen Cursed Energy. However, Hakari regenerates his arm and kicks Uraume in the face.

Uraume’s attempts to freeze Hakari’s legs fail as Hakari simply punches through their Frost Condensation. Uraume realizes that Hakari’s Reversed Cursed Technique is very strong. Uraume’s taunts about human nature and perception make Hakari think of Yuta, and he starts to have fun with this battle.

According to the spoilers, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 245 then switches to Yuji and Higuruma Vs. Sukuna in Deadly Sentencing, where Higuruma presents Sukuna as the true criminal behind the Shibuya Massacre. Sukuna does not defend himself, and instead admits to the accusations and asks to hurry along the process. He claims that he is only interested in the Sword.

He is pronounced guilty, with Judgeman confiscates his Cursed Technique and giving him the death penalty. Sukuna continues to be unbothered by his fate. Higuruma’s Domain vanishes as the Judge’s hammer turns into his Executioner’s sword. He surmises that since Sukuna most likely lost the ability to use Ten Shadows after his battle with Gojo, his original Technique, Shrine, will be the one confiscated.

Kusakabe, Choso, and Ino enter the battlefield. According to the spoilers, Higuruma and Sukuna both realise that there is a major flaw in the plan. Kusakabe runs towards Higuruma and shields the man from Sukuna’s attack, which turns out to be a series of regular Dismantle slashes (not the ones that killed Gojo and Kashimo).

Both men get seriously injured as Higuruma realizes that if the plaintive has a Cursed Tool, Judgeman’s Confiscation verdict would apply to it first. In this case, Higuruma's Domain confiscated Sukuna’s Cursed Tool Kamutoke. Sukuna’s own Cursed Technique and Cursed Energy Reserve are completely intact.


Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 245 not revealing Yuji's Cursed Technique has slightly disappointed fans. However, the twist of Sukuna escaping Deadly Sentencing has been well-received. According to spoilers, there will be no break next week and chapter 246 will come out in Weekly Shonen Jump issue 4/5. Find the official Chapter 245 release date here.
