Sukuna taking over Megumi\u2019s body at the end of the Culling Game Arc is one of the most shocking twists in Jujutsu Kaisen. Following this, he killed Yorozu, and effectively Tsumiki, to destroy the boy\u2019s will to live. When the Shinjuku Showdown began, the heroes aimed to save Megumi from Sukuna\u2019s clutches before killing the ancient sorcerer. However, that proved to be wishful thinking as the King of Curses was stronger than they could\u2019ve predicted. After Gojo died, the sorcerers\u2019 chance of victory went significantly lower. But Yuji and others were determined to save Megumi. They even got an opportunity when Yuji finally found Megumi inside Sukuna after using his soul punch. However, Megumi had given up by then, making Yuji unable to save him. Following this, things got too bleak for the sorcerers as many characters died or were brutally injured, and their chance of winning became little to nothing. As a last resort, Yuta transferred his brain inside Gojo\u2019s corpse using Kenjaku\u2019s cursed technique as Gojo was the only one capable of meeting Sukuna on an equal footing. After using every weapon in their arsenal, Yuta proceeded to use Hollow Purple on the King of Curses in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 262 Part 2. Readers noticed the Jujutsu Kaisen characters had given up on saving Megumi anymore as the attack \u2013 if it worked \u2013 would completely obliterate Sukuna (and Megumi, in the process). But they also understood why that was. \u201cThey are already using their last option (their last option was to use Gojo\u2019s body if there was practically no other option left),\u201d commented one Reddit user. Another joined, \u201cI don\u2019t think Megumi\u2019s even functioning at this point. If he even survives, he would be brain-dead. Better to put him out of his misery.\u201d \u201cMegumi is practically dead at this point, so it doesn\u2019t even matter. The best they can do is give him a proper death and spare him of the suffering,\u201d wrote a third. \u201cWho cares about saving Megumi at this point, they\u2019re literally at their last stand,\u201d was the opinion of another Jujutsu Kaisen fan. We won\u2019t know if Megumi actually survives this ordeal until we reach the end of the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. Until then, we (and the sorcerers) will have to pray for the best.
