Jujutsu Kaisen Episode 17: Kyoto Sister School Exchange Event: Group Battle 3

# Jujutsu Kaisen Episode 17: "Kyoto Sister School Goodwill Event – Team Battle, Part 3"

The episode opens with **Kasumi Miwa** engaged in combat with **Maki Zenin**. Kasumi recalls how Mai, Maki's twin sister, had assured her that Maki was weak and permanently stuck at grade 4 sorcerer rank, so Kasumi felt confident facing her. This confidence proves misplaced—Maki overwhelms Kasumi with ease, kicking her into a stream. Desperate, Kasumi deploys her **Simple Domain** technique, which creates a radius of pinpoint accuracy to deflect Maki's attacks. However, Maki counters by deliberately breaking her own spear in half, sacrificing her reach advantage. She uses the broken piece and a kunai as distractions, forcing Kasumi to move and deactivate her domain. Maki then disarms Kasumi, taking her sword.

**Nobara Kugisaki** and **Momo Nishimiya** continue their battle. Nobara uses her **Straw Doll Technique: Hairpin**, causing nails to explode with cursed energy and toppling trees. This allows her to grab a bristle from Momo's broom. Using **Straw Doll Technique: Resonance**, Nobara severs Momo's control over the broom, sending her crashing to the ground. Nobara approaches with her squeaky hammer to strike Momo without killing her, but **Mai Zenin** intervenes, shooting Nobara in the temple with a cursed energy-infused rubber bullet that instantly knocks her unconscious.

The final confrontation is between **Maki and Mai**. Mai reveals she has developed an **Innate Technique called Construction**, which allows her to create matter from nothing using cursed energy—a power she had hidden from her sister. This technique is extremely taxing on her body; she can only produce one bullet per day, and using it causes her to bleed from her nose. Despite her newfound power, Maki's superior speed and reflexes allow her to catch Mai's final bullet with her bare hands.

In a separate storyline, **Megumi Fushiguro** faces a dire situation. He summons **Mahoraga**, one of the most powerful shikigami that no Ten Shadows Technique user has successfully controlled before. Mahoraga immediately attacks Megumi, and he is severely wounded and bleeding. **Sukuna**, sensing Megumi's plan to sacrifice himself through this ritual, arrives and defeats Mahoraga using his **Domain Expansion: Malevolent Shrine** technique. The battle causes catastrophic destruction throughout Tokyo, with buildings collapsing and debris falling around them. After the fight, Sukuna sends Megumi away and leaves the devastated area.

**Yuji Itadori** regains control of his body and is horrified by the destruction he witnesses, expressing despair that his existence continues to cause innocent people to suffer. The episode concludes with **Nanami Kento** walking through a subway station in a disheveled state.
