Summary
monition : moderate pillager for Jujutsu Kaisen chapter # 259.One of the biggest mysteries ofJujutsu Kaisenover the past few years has been the nature of Sukuna ’s Divine Flame technique . It ’s been remarked as one of the hard techniques in Sukuna ’s armory , but it ’s notably removed from the slash ability of his Shrine cursed proficiency , and it was n’t even properly named until late chapters , only ever being referred to as “ Fire Arrow ” .
Jujutsu Kaisenchapter # 259saw the first manipulation of Sukuna ’s Divine Flame in almost three year , and with its return came the long - awaited explanation of how it turn . Everything that was unwrap has been a combination of new data and an enlargement on antecedently set up traditional knowledge , and when it all make out together , Divine Flame easily stands out as one of the most brawny proficiency in all ofJujutsu Kaisen .
The way things have played out makes it unconvincing that Sukuna will apply Divine Flame again , but even with its minimal use , the wallop it ’s had on the series can not be understate .
Sukuna’s Divine Flame Technique Explained
Everything to know about Sukuna’s ultimate technique
Jujutsu Kaisenchapter # 259 established that , on its own , Divine Flame is n’t that great of a technique . While it has unbelievable power , Divine Flame is very slow and has a short reach , so it usually is n’t that useful in a battle , specially when Sukuna is fight back against multiple opponents . To counter that , Sukuna enacted a binding vow to give Divine Flame withering synergy when used together withMalevolent Shrine , the drawback being that Sukuna ca n’t apply Divine Flame while outnumber without first trigger Malevolent Shrine .
Thanks to Sukuna ’s binding vow , when Sukuna use Malevolent Shrine , anything caught up in the Dismantle and Cleave attack of Malevolent Shrine is infused with volatile curse energy . When Divine Flame take contact with that explosive oath free energy , Divine Flame triggers a thermobaric detonation that steep everything within the reach of Malevolent Shrine , and much like a real - life rubble blowup , everything within its range is destroyed and death is all but ensure for anyone involve .
The account of how Divine Flame works also explains why its usage against Jogo was different from its usage against Mahoraga . Despite being the same technique , Divine Flame make far less destruction when used against Jogo than when it was used against Mahoraga , but now it ’s clear thatDivine Flame was so effective against Mahoraga because Sukuna ’s Domain Expansion countenance him trigger a thermobaric plosion . Not only does that highlight how much work Sukuna had to put in to outsmart Mahoraga , but it also highlights just how sinewy Divine Flame is and why it serves as his ultimate proficiency .
Why Didn’t Sukuna Use Divine Flame Against Gojo?
Was Sukuna holding back against Gojo?
With how potent Divine Flame is , that beg the question of why Sukuna never used it in his battle against Gojo . Both during and after Sukuna ’s competitiveness with Gojo , numerous character note on how queer it was that he was n’t using it , and with the full account of how it works , Divine Flame could have well been used by Sukuna as a trump card against Gojo . As such , it becomes all the odder that he never used it in their fight , even as he was being pushed to his limits .
fortuitously , Jujutsu Kaisenchapter # 259 was immediate to explain why Sukuna waited so long to use Divine Flame . One of the fundamental moments inGojo and Sukuna ’s fightwas their reiterate clash of Domain Expansions , and it ’s explain thatall the adjustments Sukuna had to make to Malevolent Shrine ’s range essentially seal Divine Flame , as Malevolent Shrine became so small that he could n’t mother anything worth using on Gojo . After that , the only issue was that Sukuna needed clock time to recover his Domain for maximum efficiency , and even that was zip up due to the air pressure Yuji put on Sukuna .
Can Yuji Use Sukuna’s Divine Flame?
Considering the pairs other traits, it could be possible that Yuji can harness this technique, too
Another interesting theory fence this power is whetherYuji Itadorican use it . Recent chapter have eventually capitalise on the old plot of land point of Yuji gaining Sukuna ’s doomed proficiency , albeit in a slimly different form , so if Yuji has his own version of Shrine , it stands to reason he would develop a unique variation of Divine Flame , as well . That being say , it ’s been notice that Yuji has n’t had much time to master Shrine yet , soeven if Yuji could employ Divine Flame , he ’s unlikely to use it during the final battle .
Sukuna’s Divine Flame Confirms A Big Theory About His Cursed Technique
The true form of Sukuna’s power
Divine Flame confirm a major theory about Sukuna ’s cursed technique . While Shrine seemed to simply be slash attacks , it ’s been noted that the Japanese names for Sukuna ’s attacks can also be translate in ways that relate to cooking ; Dismantle and Cleave , for model , can refer to offload and preparing factor , and the kanji used in the 2nd half of Malevolent Shrine can also be translated as “ kitchen ” . Because of this , it ’s been theorized , both seriously and jestingly , thatSukuna ’s cursed technique weaponizes cookingas counterbalance to just being about slashing attack .
Sukuna ’s cursed proficiency being theme after cooking has gotten a lot of adhesive friction of late , and Divine Flame adds even more credence to that idea . The kanji for Divine Flame can be translate as “ furnace ” , which has very obvious relations to cooking , and as such , Malevolent Shrine embuying things with explosive swearword energy before Sukuna heat everything with Divine Flame can be akin to a chef putting food in the oven after completing all the prep study . That ’s far too similar to be a coincidence , so in all likelihood , Divine Flame is the last ratification of Sukuna ’s cursed technique being about preparation .
All of that , of course , is perfectly in line with Sukuna ’s character . Sukuna has always been characterized by his stark patronage for others due to how much stronger than everyone he ’s been , soSukuna ’s cursed technique of letting him literally treat hoi polloi like food he can simply mess up around with in the promise of gratification , is the complete annexe of his character . Divine Flame ’s huge world power and thematic usage are just the final percentage point in all of that , and overall , it paints an incredible motion picture of whatJujutsu Kaisen’sfinal scoundrel is really like .
