In Jujutsu Kaisen Manga Chapter 53, Haruta Shigemo sulks in a swamp, frustrated by his minimal role in the recent operation, while a severely injured Hanami lies nearby. Meanwhile, Mahito successfully completes a crucial mission, stealing six of Sukuna’s fingers and the Death Painting Wombs No. 1-3. This heist was orchestrated by Suguru Geto, who cleverly combined Mahito’s cursed energy tracking with a Curtain as a diversion to bypass Tengen’s barrier undetected.
The theft marks a key step in their sinister plan to seal Satoru Gojo on October 31st in Shibuya. Back at Jujutsu High, Ijichi confirms both the losses and the stolen artifacts, while Gojo theorizes the barrier breach was achieved through plant-based means. Despite rising tensions and little intel gained from captured curse users, the school’s Principals debate halting the Goodwill Event. However, Gojo firmly asserts that the decision is not theirs to make.
