Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 15 Recap
In Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 17, titled βThunderclap, Part 2,β Megumi clarifies to Shigemo that no Ten Shadows sorcerer has successfully exorcised the formidable Shikigami, Mahoraga. Megumi proceeds to summon Mahoraga as part of an exorcism ritual involving Shigemo, ultimately nullifying the ritual.
A flashback reveals Satoru informing Megumi about a past confrontation between a Gojo family head with Six Eyes and Limitless abilities and a Zen’in family head with Ten Shadows. Both combatants perished, hinting that Megumi would eventually possess the strength to challenge Gojo, but only through Mahoraga.
In the current timeline, once summoned, Mahoraga fatally injures Megumi, who is left in a state of suspended death. Sensing Megumi’s peril, Sukuna intervenes to rescue him, recognizing Mahoraga’s adaptive power. Sukuna deploys a Domain that stops just before Megumi, successfully exorcising Mahoraga.
This event will later be recognized as the Shibuya Incident. Following Mahoraga’s defeat and Megumi’s transfer to Shoko, Sukuna relinquishes control to Yuji, who is deeply disturbed by the unfolding events. In a post-credit scene, Kento Nanami is depicted wandering aimlessly, his body partially scorched.
