Chapter Summaries

After Yukiko Mitsuo received a kidney transplant, a monstrous being emerged from her stomach and named itself Tomie. Meanwhile, Kento Nanami investigated Reiko Mizutani’s disappearance and headed to the hospital with Yu Haibara.

• Yukiko Mitsuo recovered well after her transplant, but a growing mass in her abdomen sent her into severe pain.
• Doctors opened Yukiko Mitsuo’s stomach and saw a head emerge, which named itself Tomie.
• Kento Nanami learned that Reiko Mizutani was dead and her body was missing.
• Kento Nanami discovered that Reiko Mizutani and the man claiming to be her father, Takagi, had fake identities.
• Kento Nanami asked the Assistant Supervisor to investigate the police for possible jujutsu influence and then went to the hospital with Yu Haibara.

Nanami investigated the strange behavior at Yukiko Mitsuo’s hospital and learned that jujutsu had amplified the desires of people there. He and Haibara found Tomie in the basement as one version burned another, and Nanami attacked her.

• Nanami questioned Yukiko Mitsuo, investigated the hospital staff, and noticed that their behavior seemed suspicious.
• Nanami received a report confirming that jujutsu had amplified the desires of police officers involved in the incident, then returned to the hospital with Haibara.
• Tomie explained that her ability magnified others’ desires and turned them into Cursed Energy, fueling her endless proliferation.
• Tomie ordered Teacher Takagi to burn an incompletely formed version of herself, and he set it alight.
• Nanami and Haibara entered the basement, where Haibara restrained Teacher Takagi and Nanami attacked Tomie with his machete.

Kento Nanami fought Tomie while resisting her ability to manipulate desire, then identified her as a Curse User and moved to capture her. He pinned her down, but a surge of Cursed Energy rose from Tomie's body as he prepared to bind her.

• Tomie evaded Kento Nanami's attacks by sensing his desire and tried to lure him into serving her.
• Kento Nanami recognized Tomie as the supposedly dead woman divided into forty-two pieces and decided to take her to Jujutsu Headquarters for investigation.

• Kento Nanami revealed his Grade 1 strength, seized Tomie when she exposed an opening, and pinned her to the floor.
• Kento Nanami told Tomie that controlling desire was a required course for adults and reached for a Cursed Talisman rope as Cursed Energy surged from her body.

Kento Nanami resisted Tomie's attempt to exploit his desires, but a Cursed Spirit sent him into a vision of the mission that had once driven him away from sorcery. After confronting his guilt and returning to the basement, he found Tomie and Teacher Takagi had escaped, leaving him and Yu Haibara to deal with the possessed Yukiko Mitsuo.

• Kento Nanami restrained Tomie, but a Cursed Spirit emerged from her and its attack transported him to the site of his failed high school mission.
• Kento Nanami remembered how his mistake had led to Assistant Supervisor Akutami Jojo's death and how a store clerk's thanks later helped him find purpose again.
• Kento Nanami accepted that he should shoulder only what he could handle, closed Akutami Jojo's eyes, and returned to the basement.
• Kento Nanami found that Tomie and Teacher Takagi had disappeared while Yu Haibara struggled to restrain the frenzied Yukiko Mitsuo.
• Kento Nanami knocked Yukiko Mitsuo unconscious, and Yu Haibara worried that the two suspects had escaped.

Kento Nanami and Yu Haibara discovered that Tomie could infect others with her tissue and change their bodies, prompting Jujutsu Headquarters to prioritize investigating her. Kenjaku tracked Tomie down, and as they spoke in an underground bar, she learned who he was and asked about the strongest Jujutsu Sorcerer.

• Kento Nanami examined Yukiko Mitsuo and concluded that Tomie's kidney tissue had infected her and changed her body; Yu Haibara took the charred Kidney Homunculus back to Shoko Ieiri.
• Shoko Ieiri confirmed Tomie's infectious nature and ability to proliferate, and Jujutsu Headquarters later fast-tracked matters related to her after hundreds of deaths.
• Eiji told Satoru Gojo what Kenjaku's new body looked like, and they spread wanted posters across the Island Nation, drawing the police's attention as well.
• Kenjaku became interested in Tomie's rapid growth and resilience, then found her during the Demon Hour and introduced himself as Kamo.
• Tomie learned from the other Tomies that Kamo was Kenjaku, a notorious Special Grade Curse User, and resolved to make him her power.
• Tomie asked Kenjaku who the strongest Jujutsu Sorcerer was.

Tomie questioned Kenjaku about the strongest Jujutsu Sorcerers and learned about Satoru Gojo and Dongfang Eiji. After Kenjaku resisted her charm and left, Tomie received information about sorcerers and decided to pursue Gojo.

• Tomie asked Kenjaku who was strongest, and he named Satoru Gojo and Dongfang Eiji as the strongest modern sorcerers and Ryomen Sukuna as the strongest in history.
• Kenjaku described Gojo as an overwhelming god-king and Eiji as a reserved sorcerer whose full strength remained unknown.
• Tomie tried to charm Kenjaku, but he resisted and teased her before leaving the bar.
• A package addressed to Tomie arrived with records on Kento Nanami, Yu Haibara, other sorcerers, and places Gojo and Eiji frequented.
• Tomie studied Gojo's photograph and declared that she would take him.

Kento Nanami tracked Tomie to a country villa and fought the monstrous aberration she had created. After discovering the creature’s body could be damaged by gunfire, he prepared to reveal another modern weapon.

• Kento Nanami arrived alone at Tomie’s country villa after learning from Tsukiko that Tomie had invited her there.
• Tomie revealed that she had wanted to eliminate Kento Nanami and Tsukiko together, and Kento Nanami attacked her.
• A huge aberration made from Tomie’s transplanted flesh ambushed Kento Nanami, while Tomie watched from the second floor.
• Tomie’s experiment had advanced with materials from Kenjaku, and she planned to build controllable strength rather than merge with the other Tomies.
• Kento Nanami resisted the aberration’s influence, tested its defenses, and shot it with a Pistol.
• Tomie watched in disbelief as Kento Nanami took out something even more unexpected.

Kento Nanami defeated Tomie’s aberration after awakening Black Flash, but Tomie escaped. In Sendai, Tomie lured Satoru Gojo into an alley with Edamame Cream Kikufuku, where he recognized her as a Curse User and captured her.

• Kento Nanami used a grenade and his blade to cut down the aberration, then landed several Black Flashes and destroyed it.
• Kento Nanami knocked out a boy hidden in armor, pursued Tomie, and called the Assistant Supervisors to seal the aberration’s multiplying remains.
• Tomie met several men at a dessert shop in Sendai and took their Edamame Cream Kikufuku before discovering Satoru Gojo had come looking for the same sweets.
• Tomie offered Satoru Gojo the desserts in exchange for a favor and led him into a deserted alley.
• Satoru Gojo grabbed Tomie by the throat, said he disliked her tainted Cursed Energy, and identified her as a Curse User he intended to catch.

Tomie abandoned her attempt to charm Satoru Gojo after his Limitless blocked her influence, then targeted Eiji instead. Eiji began approaching Tomie under her charm, unaware of her intentions, and asked if she was Tomie.

• Tomie realized Satoru Gojo's Limitless completely isolated him from her ability and decided to pursue Eiji instead.
• Eiji reflected on how dating Artoria had changed his daily habits and how much he valued their relationship.
• After exorcising a Cursed Spirit, Eiji noticed Tomie, whose charm had already begun affecting him.
• Tomie used a copy with enough Cursed Energy to influence a Special Grade and successfully drew Eiji into approaching her.
• Eiji asked Tomie if she was Tomie, and she replied by asking whether he knew her.

Eiji captured Tomie and delivered her to Shoko Ieiri, whose research revealed that Tomie was an Over-Cursed Spirit capable of inflaming desires and multiplying. After Tomie’s true form emerged and injured Shoko, Jujutsu Headquarters and the Tokyo Branch assigned the gathered sorcerers to deal with her.

• Eiji bound Tomie with shadow ropes and brought her to Shoko Ieiri’s Lab as a research specimen.
• Shoko and Kiyotaka Ijichi found two restrained Tomies outside the Lab the next morning.
• Tomie’s Cursed Spirit form emerged from her corpse and attacked Shoko, but the Lab’s defenses suppressed it.
• Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto returned to Tokyo Jujutsu High and learned that Shoko was safe and resting.
• Masamichi Yaga shared Shoko’s report, which identified Tomie as an Over-Cursed Spirit that could amplify desires, absorb Cursed Energy, and multiply.
• Jujutsu Headquarters and the Tokyo Branch assigned Eiji, Artoria, Satoru Gojo, Suguru Geto, and the others to deal with Tomie.

Masamichi Yaga assigned Artoria, Satoru Gojo, Suguru Geto, and Eiji separate roles in a coordinated effort to stop Tomie as the Tokyo Branch struggled with missing Assistant Supervisors. After a Tomie was completely exorcised, Tomie grew wary and asked Kenjaku whether Ryomen Sukuna could defeat Satoru Gojo, then asked what Kenjaku intended to do.

• Masamichi Yaga appointed Artoria to oversee operations, Satoru Gojo to exorcise Tomie, Suguru Geto to capture and help eliminate Tomies, and Eiji to seek Tengen's help locating them.
• Artoria adjusted missions and deployed Heroic Spirits and Toji Fushiguro against High-level Cursed Spirits to relieve pressure on Tokyo's Jujutsu Sorcerers.

• Kenjaku visited Tomie, who asked whether Satoru Gojo was truly strong and whether Ryomen Sukuna could defeat him.
• Kenjaku said Ryomen Sukuna would win, and Tomie asked what he intended to do.

Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto fought through Tomie's enthralled followers as she escaped into the mountains. Suguru caught her, resisted her charm, and immobilized her with a Cursed Spirit before another Spirit began entering her body.

• Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto fought Tomie's followers without killing them, and Geto left Gojo to pursue her.
• Satoru Gojo used Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue to lift and spin the remaining attackers before heading after Geto.
• Suguru Geto tracked Tomie into the mountains and surrounded her with Cursed Spirits.
• Tomie tried to charm Suguru Geto, but he declared he would preserve her as part of his collection.
• Suguru Geto used a Cursed Spirit's Simple Domain to immobilize Tomie, then tentacles suspended her as a massive Cursed Spirit burrowed into her body.

Suguru Geto forced Tomie's original form out of her body, but discovered he could not absorb her because the other Tomies resisted. After Taotie devoured her, Satoru Gojo urged Geto to disband the Star Religious Cult and return to Tokyo Jujutsu High, promising to support him.

• Suguru Geto sent wave after wave of possessing Cursed Spirits into Tomie's body until they forced her true form out.
• Tomie tried to flee, but Suguru Geto's Cursed Spirits trapped and weakened her.
• Suguru Geto failed to absorb Tomie and mistakenly accused her of betraying him.
• Suguru Geto ordered Taotie to devour Tomie, while reasoning that he could deal with any infection afterward.
• Satoru Gojo arrived, urged Suguru Geto to disband the Star Religious Cult and return to Tokyo Jujutsu High, and offered to support him.

Eiji and the others used Tomie as a sample to adapt Tengen’s Barrier into a radar, while an infected Assistant Supervisor infiltrated Tokyo Jujutsu High and stole Sukuna’s Finger. The radar exposed more than a dozen Tomies inside the school, and the trapped Tomies retaliated by making their controlled victims riot.

• Shoko Ieiri discovered that a Tomie could escape her damaged body as a Cursed Spirit, so Eiji brought another Tomie to the Tombs of the Star Corridor as a sample for Tengen’s Barrier radar.
• An infected Assistant Supervisor entered Jiku, stole Sukuna’s Finger, and took other Cursed Objects before the Barrier activated and Jujutsu Sorcerers pursued her.
• Tomie discarded Sukuna’s Finger to draw the pursuers away and was captured, while another figure quietly retrieved the finger from a trash can.
• Eiji activated the Tomie Radar across Tokyo Jujutsu High and found more than a dozen Tomies, then sent the warning to Artoria.
• Trapped Tomies realized they had been exposed, and one of them triggered a riot among the people she had controlled.

Tomie threw Tokyo Jujutsu High into chaos to cover her escape after stealing Sukuna's Finger, the Barrier-opening Cursed Tool, and a Cursed Womb Death Painting. Artoria and the others subdued the controlled staff and exorcised one Tomie, while Choso and his brothers pursued the thief.

• Tomie's controlled allies attacked their companions, and Medea and Eiji subdued people across Tokyo Jujutsu High.
• Tomie revealed she had arranged for Sukuna's Finger and the Barrier-opening Cursed Tool to be stolen, then tried to escape with a Cursed Womb Death Painting.
• Choso nearly struck the stolen Cursed Womb Death Painting with Kari-barae, then bound Tomie's controlled attackers and chased after her with Eso and Kechizu.
• Artoria led the school's forces in capturing Tomie's controlled allies and exorcised one Tomie with her Holy Sword.
• Round Deer healed nearby allies with Reverse Cursed Technique and damaged Tomie as Artoria pursued another copy.

Tomie gathered eleven of Sukuna's Fingers from Uraume, and Kenjaku brought five more, but Tomie warned that the sorcerers could track her and they had to act quickly. At the Tombs of the Star Corridor, Eiji considered how many fingers remained and concluded that Kenjaku had likely controlled most of them.

• Tokyo Jujutsu High tallied the loss of six Sukuna's Fingers and questioned how Tomie had found and stolen them.
• Tomie asked Uraume about Ryomen Sukuna, and Uraume brought her five fingers, bringing their total to eleven.
• Kenjaku arrived with five more fingers, bringing the total to sixteen, and said they might not be enough to defeat Satoru Gojo.
• Tomie told Kenjaku that the sorcerers could pinpoint her location, so they had no time to wait.
• Eiji counted the fingers known to be held by himself, Satoru Gojo, and Yuji Itadori, then inferred that Kenjaku had kept most of the remaining fingers under his control.

Tomie’s selves gathered in a stadium and orchestrated a mass slaughter so the survivor could absorb them all into a Cursed Womb. Kenjaku watched the fusion with satisfaction and prepared to begin the next stage of his plan.

• Eiji worried that Kenjaku and Tomie might be working together after learning that Sukuna’s Fingers had been stolen from multiple locations, and he called for support.
• The Tomies gathered in a stadium and let their bodyguards slaughter one another while their Cursed Energy and the fallen Tomies flowed into a growing mass.
• The last surviving Tomie had a Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer kill her other controlled sorcerer, leaving her as the sole victor.
• Tomie merged with the Cursed Energy mass, forming a Cursed Womb that held a terrifying existence.
• Kenjaku, Uraume, and two Tomies watched the fusion, and Kenjaku told Tomie it was time to begin the next step.

Tomie swallowed Sukuna's Fingers and endured the clash between their Cursed Energy until Ryomen Sukuna revived in her body. Sukuna welcomed Uraume and assessed Kenjaku's plans, while Tomie's appearance and regenerative ability remained in control of his new incarnation.

• Kenjaku watched the cursed womb form in the gymnasium as Tomie and Uraume prepared Sukuna's Fingers.
• Tomie reluctantly swallowed the first finger and endured her body being repeatedly destroyed and regenerated as Sukuna's Cursed Energy merged with hers.
• Cursed markings appeared on Tomie as she began eating the second finger, and Ryomen Sukuna's consciousness revived inside her.
• Uraume greeted Sukuna, who recognized her and then identified Kenjaku by his stitched seams.
• Sukuna called the cursed womb an appetizer for Kenjaku's coming spectacle and became irritated by Tomie's disgusted expression.

Tomie tried to use her Demonic Charm to control Ryomen Sukuna, believing his two-finger strength and his possession of her body gave her an advantage. Sukuna resisted, severed her head, and began eating her, but Tomie welcomed the ordeal and resolved to erode him over time.

• Tomie prepared to influence Ryomen Sukuna and planned to control him while gradually increasing his power.
• Ryomen Sukuna let his hunger and desires swell, then lifted Tomie's chin and cut off her head.
• Sukuna caught Tomie's head and told her he had never eaten a woman as delicious as her before.
• Uraume offered to prepare Tomie, but Sukuna tossed her head to Uraume and began eating her body.
• Tomie endured Sukuna's feast without fear and resolved to infect and erode every part of him.

• Sukuna used Dismantle against Gojo, but the attack stopped before reaching him, and Gojo threw Sukuna into a nearby building.
• Kenjaku warned Sukuna that Gojo was the strongest modern Jujutsu Sorcerer, while Sukuna grew eager to fight and taste him.
