The previous chapter provided a flashback into Takaba’s journey as a comedian, emphasizing his resilience amidst challenges. Presently, Takaba recollects his comedic purpose, revitalizing his Cursed technique with newfound confidence to confront Kenjaku once again.
Spoilers
Titled “Foolish Survivor – Rise Up,” Chapter 242, as per spoilers, begins with Kenjaku summoning the Special Grade Curse, “Akuro Ouohtake,” against Takaba. In a surprising twist, Takaba, now envisioning himself as a truck driver, obliterates the Curse.
Subsequently, he transforms Kenjaku into a police officer in a scenario of drunk driving accusation, adding a surreal touch with a bag meant for alcohol testing containing a deceased goldfish.
Continuing the imaginative spectacle, Takaba morphs both himself and Kenjaku into doctors attempting to revive the lifeless fish, leading to a moment of disappointment for Takaba. Amidst the bizarre sequence, it is revealed that Takaba’s Cursed Technique not only materializes his own thoughts but can also interpret and manifest his opponent’s imagination.
This includes the ability to manipulate the opponent’s thoughts to influence the course of the battle. As the narrative unfolds, Takaba and Kenjaku engage in a variety of scenarios, from a rock-paper-scissors game evolving into a quiz show, ultimately leading them to a mysterious door.
Kenjaku recognizes the complexity of Takaba’s power, realizing that the only way to counter it is to eradicate Takaba’s affinity for comedy entirely. The chapter takes an unexpected turn as they encounter a situation involving a cat on the verge of being hit by a car, only for the cat to turn out to be Kenjaku himself.
In an ironic twist, Takaba attempts to save the cat but ends up getting hit by the car. The setting shifts to the ocean, where Takaba utilizes a water scooter to run over Kenjaku before engaging in a playful water fight reminiscent of childhood antics.
Although the spoilers for Chapter 242 leave the question of whether Takaba can manipulate or read thoughts unanswered, there is a strong implication to that effect. Notably, mangaka Gege Akutami is set to continue the narrative without a break, with Chapter 243 scheduled for release in Weekly Shonen Jump issue 52.
Release Date
For those anticipating the release, let us tell you, Chapter 242 of Jujutsu Kaisen is scheduled for official translation release on Monday, November 20, 2023, at 12 am JST in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump issue 51.
