hello !! jxdedstilll here

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this book. It has been an incredible journey to revisit the world of Jujutsu Kaisen and experience those emotions once again.

As for the purpose of this chapter, I would like to provide a comprehensive explanation of the entire story. This will help clarify any confusion you may have encountered. Rest assured, I will do my best not to reveal too many spoilers from the original Jujutsu Kaisen plot. It's important to note that this entire book contains significant spoilers for Season 2, as I've already mentioned at the beginning, so please don't come after me for that. z3

First and foremost, as explained by Yang Haru in the epilogue, she was being possessed. The Yang Haru we encountered in the first chapter was not her, but merely her lifeless body. This is why Niki mentioned, "My Six Eyes tell me you are ..., but my soul knows otherwise." It served as a subtle spoiler for Haru's death in Chapter 29, given that Niki was by her side when she passed away for the first time.

In Chapter 1, Haru regains control over the curse inhabiting her body and harnesses her powers to send Niki back in time, ultimately altering their fates. However, it's essential to note that this divergence from the original Jujutsu Kaisen plot did not occur.

You might wonder how Haru could accomplish this, considering she didn't possess any time-manipulating techniques. Although this detail wasn't explicitly mentioned in the book, during her years as a villain, Haru had consumed numerous curses to prepare for the impending war that would ultimately claim her life. Among these curses was one that held a unique time-manipulation ability, which is how she was able in doing so.

We accompany Niki throughout the book as he embarks on a quest to unravel the mystery behind Haru's actions. In the initial chapters ( 2-5 ), Riki retains his memories, preserving knowledge of the future events. However, as he undertakes a mission to rescue Sunoo, he gradually forgets his origins from the future, leading to repeated catastrophes such as his untimely demise at the hands of Xiaojun.

His memories are only fully restored when Haru, who has now switched allegiances and is a wanted curse user, resurfaces. It's at this point that he resolves to relive the unfolding tragedies yet again, with the intention of altering only one crucial interaction in Chapter 29, as I will delve into further.

Sunoo served as a vessel for the individual known as the "bridge" between the jujutsu community and ordinary humans. This concept of being a vessel is akin to Haru and her connection with the curse she was inhabited by. 

However, it's essential to clarify that Sunoo was not possessed in the same manner as Haru. He retained his own soul and personality, but his body was utilized by Taehyun-sama, preventing the latter from further maturation. In essence, Sunoo represented an unpossessed vessel, despite his brief appearance, leaving a profound impact on Riki and Haru's narrative.
