Chapter 158 marked the beginning of the Culling Games arc, and players like Hajime Kashimo and Hiromi Higuruma have already taken a huge lead by scoring in the hundreds.
It also shocked us by revealing that Itadori has already become a participant for having Sukuna within him. Does that mean everything that happened so far, right from Itadori consuming Sukuna’s finger, is preplanned by some mastermind? We bring you the latest chapter updates of this manga.
1. Chapter 159 Discussions and Predictions
In Chapter 159, Itadori and others will be going after Hajime Kashimo and Hiromi Higuruma, aiming to earn the maximum points through minimal deaths.
We may also get to know exactly how Hakari wants the Jujutsu High rules to be changed after the Culling games are over. He surely has some selfish intention behind agreeing to assist the first years.
However, there’s a high chance that the chapter can be solely Itadori centric. The previous chapter teased a mysterious connection between Sukuna and Kenjaku. Thus, it’s just a matter of time before the manga dives deep into this conspiracy theory, thereby explaining Itadori’s role.

5. Chapter 158 Recap
In Chapter 158, Panda confirms to Hakari and Kirara that the rumors of Satoru Goju getting sealed are true. Not only that, Principal Yaga lost his life in the hands of Jujutsu High’s higher-ups.
It’s heartbreaking even for someone as cold as Hakari to know that everyone who ever took care of him is passing away one by one. After giving some thought, he finally agrees to help Megumi out in the Culling games.
However, I doubt this cooperation is a sudden act of selflessness from the third-year student. He surely wants to change the Jujutsu High’s rules taking advantage of this chaos, and what’s better than having the Zenin clan’s leader by his side?
Just when everyone was about to relax a bit, Hajime Kashime introduced a new rule to the Culling games by sacrificing 100 of his 200 points. This new rule allows players to have complete transparency over each other’s points, skills, and other details.
The notice being delivered to Itadori also confirms that he has already been recognized as a participant of the Culling games. Is that because he is holding the King of Curses, Sukuna, within him? We will find that out in the upcoming episodes.
