Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 3 initially deviates from the usual action-packed narrative and presents a rare beach interlude. Gojou and Riko enjoy a quiet day on the sun-drenched shores of Okinawa. A melancholic undertone permeates their fun as Riko reveals her intention to offer her life to Tengen-sama.
With the news of Kuroi's abduction and the inexplicable choice of Okinawa as the location for the exchange, a sense of urgency resurfaces.
This episode also introduces a new character, Touji Fushiguro, who, despite possessing no cursed energy, displays a startling affinity for a cursed spirit. He fights with cursed tools, much like Maki Zen'in. The intrigue surrounding Touji escalates when it is revealed that he possesses a heavenly pact, which enhances his physical strength to an astonishing degree.
Two major plot twists ramp up the tension. First, the seemingly fatal injury of Gojou, one of the main characters, shocks the viewer and leaves them anxious for his recovery and potential savior. The name Shouko Ieiri emerges as the likely healer. The second twist is the sudden death of Riko. Her impending demise had been hinted at, but the abrupt manner of her passing leaves viewers shocked and saddened.
