Where to read Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 259
For those eager to dive into Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 259, you can find it on Viz Media or Manga Plus. The best part? It’s completely free to read on both platforms within a reasonable time frame.

What to expect in JJK Chapter 259
The only information we can gather about Chapter 259 derives from Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 258. So, if you haven’t read it yet, turn away to avoid spoilers.
In this latest arc, the storyline takes a thrilling turn as Yuji Itadori faces off against the formidable Sukuna. After gaining the upper hand with his Black Flash, Itadori now finds himself up against Sukuna’s brutal attacks. More importantly, we finally know the name of his mysterious fiery ability, which definitely does the technique justice.
Just as the chapter is about to close, Sukuna reveals the “Divine Flame” as a fire emerges from his hands. You may remember this ability from the Shibuya Incident arc, when Jogo gets engulfed in his flames. The technique has yet to be explicitly explained, so Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 259 will likely dive into Sukuna’s Divine Flame.
Whatever the case may be, Yuji will undoubtedly have his plate full with this blazing technique. We’ll just have to see how he handles it and whether he has what it takes to go against this demonic enemy.
