Full Plot Summary

After retreating outside the juvenile detention center, Fushiguro notices the death of the special grade cursed spirit. Sukuna arrives and holds Yuji hostage by ripping his heart out, believing Yuji would not be so reckless as to try and take over. They fight for dominance but even with the help of his shikigami Megumi is overpowered. Megumi admits that he was selfish to save Yuji and that his will to save people that can't be saved came from a desire to "help people unequally" after seeing his sister fall into a coma from a cursed spirit. Yuji emerges, but quickly dies from blood loss. While in mourning, he and Nobara encounter second-years Maki Zenin, Toge Inumaki, and Panda (an anthropomorphic panda) who inform them that they will be taking place in the Kyoto Sister School Exchange Event together. Meanwhile, cursed spirits Dagon, Jogo, and Hanami meet with Geto, a human, plotting to get Yuji and Satoru on their side. While his body is examined by doctor Shoko Ieiri, an alive Yuji wakes up in Sukuna's domain.
