"Jujutsu Kaisen" Chapter 177 Recap

Ryu Ishigori and Yuta Okkutsu were facing each other in Sendai Colony. After Ryu’s monologue about food and fights, he went all out against his opponent, Yuta.

A fierce battle ensued as Ryu landed blows after blows and Yuta tried his best to block the attacks. Yuta noted that his opponent’s output was high and he was releasing cursed energy at a rapid pace.

He added Ryu’s movements were fast and precise. Yuta was trying to stop Ryu but at one point the latter overpowered and launched a massive attack that threw off Yuta.

Later, in the chapter, Takako Uro appeared and joined the battle. Ryu was annoyed because Takako was interfering. Yuta was his target and Ryu was irritated with Takako's appearance.

Toward the end of the chapter, Yuta was up against Takako and Ryu at the same time.
