The Shibuya arc has not only reconsidered the power dynamics within the Jujutsu world but has also changed the expectations of readers. The events that unfolded during this arc have left the most impactful storyline inJujutsu Kaisento date. It projected the heinous act of Sukuna’s power over Satoru Gojo as well as on normal, innocent people.
Ryomen Sukuna’s Rampage Plotted by Gege Akutami
Ryomen Sukuna‘s sheer devastation in the Shibuya Incident arc has leftJujutsu Kaisen‘s readers glued to the manga panels.Gege Akutamipulled no punches in depicting Sukuna’s terrifying power and ruthlessness, resulting in what many now consider to be the most catastrophic arc in the whole series. Both sides, heroes and villains, have suffered many losses, and it was unclear who would be the next to fall.
Sukuna’s kill count during his rampage was staggering, as the ancient sorcerer managed to completely wipe out several opponents including multiple special-grade cursed spirits, elite Jujutsu sorcerers, and many innocent civilians. His most notable feat was the shocking defeat ofSatoru Gojo, the strongest sorcerer of his era.

He was playing around, is yall still not getting that after months?
Sukuna stocks in shambles right now lmaooo
I feel like this is part of sukunas character to show that he never cared wether u lived or not but if ur in his way he’d knock you out for the meantime and won’t give shit if u end up living he had so many chances to finish his kills but he didn’t care
atp the only people in the team he killed is kashimo (incarnated) and choso (cursed spirit) and gojo so he basically only killed ONE person
However, fans have noticed that Sukuna’s body count may not be as high as they believed. An X user @Irin917817 highlighted that only two named characters from the main cast were confirmed dead, with others like Kusakabe surprisingly surviving the encounter.

Despite the relatively low named character death toll, the scale of his destruction unleashed on Shibuya and the Jujutsu world as a whole cannot be overstated.
Unexpected Survivors’ Impact onJujutsu Kaisen
Akutami’s clever move to set Sukuna on a rampage through Shibuya has undeniably created a devastating scene, but it has also raised discussion among fans regarding the true extent of the carnage with recent revelations. A point of contention has arisen from the surprising survival of certain characters, whom many had assumed perished in the chaos.
Some argue that the relatively low count of confirmed deaths among named characters was due to Sukuna’s playful nature. Others contend that the true devastation lies not in the body count, but in the fact that his actions lead to many consequences on the Jujutsu world.

Readers can now only speculate what Gege Akutami might be cooking with the last two chapters ofJujutsu Kaisen. Will other characters be reintroduced just like Nobara and Kusakabe or be left as is?
