In Jujutsu Kaisen Manga Chapter 23, Nanami Kento continues his fierce battle against Mahito, deftly evading attacks as Mahito manipulates transfigured humans into grotesque monsters. In the middle of the skirmish, Nanami hears one of the creatures desperately crying out for help. Remembering Shoko Ieiri’s warning not to hesitate when confronting them, Nanami steels himself. Mahito nonchalantly apologizes, remarking that some victims don’t die instantly from his alterations. Nanami coldly replies that he keeps his emotions separate from his duty, though Mahito chuckles, easily recognizing the conflict beneath Nanami’s calm exterior.
