The episode concludes by expanding the series' scope. We are introduced to a group of special-grade cursed spirits—including and Hanami —meeting with a mysterious human sorcerer in a cafe. Their ultimate goal is revealed: to replace humanity with cursed spirits by neutralizing Gojo and bringing Sukuna to their side.

The ensuing battle is less of a fight and more of a "beat down" that highlights the terrifying gap between Sukuna and the young sorcerers. Despite the odds, Megumi refuses to back down, summoning and Orochi (the Great Serpent) in a desperate attempt to force Sukuna into using a Reverse Cursed Technique to heal Yuji’s heart.

While Sukuna easily overpowers him—even destroying Orochi with ease—he becomes increasingly intrigued by Megumi’s unique technique and untapped potential. This fight serves as a pivotal moment for Megumi, who reflects on his personal philosophy: he isn't a hero, but a sorcerer who saves people "unequally" based on his own convictions. In the end, Yuji manages to switch back just long enough to share a final smile and a request for his friends to "live a long life" before succumbing to his wounds. JujutsuKaisen_Ep_05_ITA.mp4

The "King of Curses" takes this opportunity to hold Yuji’s life hostage. In a chilling display of cruelty, Sukuna rips out Yuji's heart, ensuring that if Yuji does regain control, he will immediately die. To solidify his dominance, Sukuna consumes another of his fingers before turning his sights on Megumi Fushiguro.

Picking up from a devastating cliffhanger, Episode 5 forces our heroes into an impossible corner. Yuji Itadori, having overused Sukuna’s power without a binding vow, finds himself unable to take back control of his body. The episode concludes by expanding the series' scope

The final chilling shot reveals that while Yuji's body may be dead, his soul is still trapped within Sukuna’s domain, setting the stage for an inevitable, dangerous pact.
