a panel of Megumi Fushiguro from chapter 1 of the Jujutsu Kaisen manga. he is in the dark, on the phone, looking frustrated. text edited on reads, "Here is Megumi,"

a manga panel of Megumi that shows him curled up on his side in a dark abyss, dying light shining over him. the edited on text continues, "all alone in the dark."

a manga panel from chapter 1 that shows Yuuji and his Occult Club friends sitting around a table, attempting to contact spirits. text edited on reads, "Here is Yuuji,"

a manga panel that shows Yuuji running, desperation evident on his face. his face and arms are riddled with cuts. edited on text continues, "playing with supernatural forces beyond his control."

a manga panel from chapter 1 that shows Megumi and Yuuji heading in opposite directions as they pass each other. a "Szzt" between them indicates the lingering cursed energy of Sukuna's finger, which Megumi senses.

three manga panels from chapter 1. the first shows a flashback of Yuuji with his occult club friends as dialogue from Yuuji reads, "It's only been a couple months...but they're my friends!" the second panel shows Yuuji, determined as he says, "I have to do something to help!" the third panel shows Megumi looking over his shoulder at Yuuji, a shadow darkening his face as he orders, "Stay here!"

There is no universe in which Megumi & Yuuji can survive.

My ninth grade English teacher walks us through the prologue of Romeo & Juliet, explaining how it serves as a synopsis of the play, and how it spoils the ending. Here are our characters, here is where they live, here is why their love is forbidden. You will spend the next two hours learning to love them only for their blood to spill across the stage. This is the only ending they were ever meant for.
