Fans expect to witness a lot of twists and turns in "Jujutsu Kaisen" Chapter 188. Aside from Kashimo's past, it may also reveal more about Kenjaku's dealings with the reincarnated sorcerers, especially Ryu Ishigori and Takako Uro.
Kashimo's fight against Hakari has turned out to be interesting. Hakari swears he will not be defeated and his future may be revealed in "Jujutsu Kaisen" Chapter 188.
SportsKeeda noted no one knows which path the creator, Gege Akutami, will take in the new chapter. It may revolve around Hakari and Kashimo's fight or focus on Kenjaku.
The mangaka may not just leave Kashimo's storyline by just half explaining his Cursed Technique. Many also want to know more about Kashimo and his past ability that is used to "brute force to overpower fancy techniques."
It's highly likely that he plans to overcome Hakari through his resilience and bloodlust. It's also possible that "Jujutsu Kaisen" Chapter 188 will focus on the flashbacks from 400 years ago and explain Kenjaku's designs at the time.
Kenjaku seems more open about his true nature in the past, so it will be interesting to see him having interactions with Uro, Ishigori or Sukuna. By the looks of it, the next chapter can be a combination of the two storylines that can switch between the past and the present, continuing the Tokyo No. 2 Colony arc.
Meanwhile, in "Jujutsu Kaisen" Chapter 187, Kashimo started to understand how Hakari's cursed technique, per OtakuKart News. As his domain was harmless, his cursed energy became infinite after hitting the enemy.
Hakari became invisible for a time after the attack and lost his power after the time limit of four minutes and 11 seconds. He would use his visible time to increase his probability while avoiding being fatally hit.
From there, the cycle would continue. He claimed responsible gambling was disrespect to the game, so he would just trust his luck.
Alternatively, Kashimo found it a cowardly move to wait for Hakari's time limit. He vowed to find a way to kill Hakari despite being unable to be killed.
A flashback was then seen, featuring the blood-stained days of the Jujutsu world when Kashimo was associated with Kenjaku. Kashimo was already taking his last breaths when he asked Kenjaku about the strongest sorcerer of all time.
Kenjaku then told him about Ryomen Sukuna who lived hundreds of years ago. He then offered him to return to life to face Sukuna.
What happens from here can be seen when "Jujutsu Kaisen" Chapter 188 drops on Sunday, June 19.
