The second season ended on a major cliffhanger as Yuta returned to Japan and met with the elders. He swears to kill Yuji Itadori after seeing how his friend, Toge Inumaki, lost an arm during Sukuna’s rampage. The third season’s premiere unveiled his plans, and it’s way different from what fans anticipated. Yuta only shows a glimpse of his powers, and it’s enough to freeze everyone in fear.

Even as a special grade, Yuta is an extraordinary sorcerer, often being compared to Gojo. While surpassing Gojo doesn’t seem likely for the young sorcerer, he is still called second only to his Sensei. Yuta’s presence in Shibuya was enough to send chills down Yuji and Choso, who were his prime targets. Not only that, but the raw cursed energy he unleashed was so terrifying that, for a second, Yuji thought he sensed Gojo, but realized it was someone way creepier.

Additionally, he even revealed that his cursed energy reserves are even greater than Gojoโ€™s. Yuta effortlessly overwhelmed Yuji, Choso, and Naoya, and that was only a glimpse of his true powers. Because he wasn’t serious during the fight, he didn’t need to go all out against them at all. Not to mention that his goal was always to kill Yuji and revive him with the Reverse Cursed Technique in the very next moment. He has an unlimited number of cursed techniques at his disposal thanks to his innate Copy Technique.

The anime reveals he has always been an ally to Yuji and the others, which is a huge relief because his powers will even the odds against the villains. Yuta will continue to side with the sorcerers throughout the Culling Game and the Shinjuku Showdown Arcs, and his abilities will definitely give the sorcerers an edge against the powerful villains.
