Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 263 is set to be released on Monday, July 15, 2024. However, days before the manga's official release, the chapter's spoilers were leaked online. While the manga's previous chapter was focused on Yuta Okkotsu's fight against Ryomen Sukuna, the latest chapter spoilers saw Yuji and Todo joining the fight.

While Aoi Todo did what was expected of him, i.e., Boogie Woogie using his Vibraslap, Yuji Itadori outclassed himself. Ryomen Sukuna must have been hoping to defeat Yuji, Yuta, and Todo all by himself. That's when Yuji pulled an Uno reverse on Sukuna and made him fall back to maintain his body.

So, how did Yuji reverse his situation against Sukuna?

As seen from the start of the 'Shinjuku Showdown Arc,' Ryomen Sukuna considered his former host Yuji Itadori boring and a person who was nowhere close to being a threat to him.

However, as the story progressed, Yuji showcased the new moves he learned during the one-month training period. Surprisingly, Yuji Itadori improved a lot from the time when he appeared at the Culling Game. Nevertheless, such strength still wasn't enough to be a threat to Sukuna.

That's when Yuji showcased his new Soul-Shattering Punches, attacks that were capable of accurately hitting the barrier between Sukuna and Megumi's souls. This move allowed Yuji to weaken the bond between Sukuna and Megumi and reach out to his friend in one of the previous chapters. Unfortunately, Megumi Fushiguro could not bring himself to get back up.

Following that, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 263 spoilers saw Yuji perfectly hitting Sukuna with Dismantle at the barrier between the two souls. However, unlike the last time, Sukuna's condition was far worse as he was forced to back away from Yuji to maintain control over his body.

To depict his situation to be even worse, Jujutsu Kaisen manga showed Ryomen Sukuna throwing up some of his fingers. Nevertheless, he desperately held onto the regurgitated fingers and swallowed them again.

The fact that Sukuna did not think of Yuji as a threat at the start but was now scared enough to back away proves that Yuji Itadori was able to reverse his situation with Sukuna.

Even Jujutsu Kaisen fans were left amazed as being strong enough to force Sukuna to throw up was something even the strongest sorcerer Satoru Gojo wasn't capable of. Hence, they viewed him as a beast.

"WHAT A CHAPTER!!! Yuji making Sukuna throw up his fingers, and being able to selectively choose the target of the technique?! He is a monster," one fan said.

"I’ve actually never seen one person embarrass Sukuna so much. screaming crying throwing up’ - Sukuna. Yuji easily the GOAT of this manga," another fan expressed.

Meanwhile, another pointed out how the protagonist Yuji Itadori was the only person who embarrassed Sukuna so much. To make the King of Curses scream, cry, and throw up just wasn't something any Jujutsu sorcerer could do. Thus, given Yuji and Sukuna's previous situation, Yuji succeeded in reversing their situations completely.
