Warning! Unmarked spoilers below!

Yuji's unique power.
  • Twice now, there have been instances where "Memories of events that have never happened" has happened to characters Yuji is fighting. Memories of the people in question as close friends or family of that person. And, his Grandfather's last words were to have a lot of friends. A blessing/curse born from his Grandpa's desire?

Aoi Todo is also a Cursed Womb: Death Paining.
  • In addition, or alternatively, to the theory above about Yuji's power, maybe the reason he has inserted himself into "memories of events that have never happened" with both Choso and Todo is because both of them are Death Paintings. Choso's has case been mostly handwaved away so far due to the fact that Yuji is indeed technically his brother; so it is possible to conjecture that Todo is also another Death Painting that does not know this fact which would also explain his absurd physical power and overall resistance.

Black Flash
  • Since negative energy can be multiplied with itself to produce positive energy, it seems that it follows standard mathematics. The stated power increase of Black Flash to the 2.5 power, thus the result would be imaginary. Conclusion, Black Flash creates imaginary energy.

Fumihiko Takaba tells unfunny jokes on purpose
  • Getting indignant at the audience being completely unimpressed is part of a pact that allows his technique to power up. If someone actually laughed at his jokes, it would render him harmless.

Domain Expansion
  • So far, we have only seen a Domain Expansion being unlocked twice. Both times, the characters were on the verge of death. Maybe that's one of the requirements for unlocking it?
    • If that's the requirement, how would Gojo or Sukuna have unlocked it? It's more likely that those two were just able to unlock it quickly due to the pressure and adrenaline, rather than practicing as most other Domain Expansion users likely did.

Gakuganji will not tell the Jujutsu higher-ups how to created sentient cursed corpses.
When he executed Principal Yaga and was told the secret of creating sentient, self-sustaining cursed corpses, Gakuganji was shown to be mournful of Yaga's death and wished that he had just told them the secret so he could stay alive. As he sent the other sorcerer accompanying him away, it's entirely possible, and even highly likely that he will keep the knowledge a secret from the Jujutsu higher-ups as a way to honor Yaga's memory, showing that even Gakuganji dislikes the self-centered and execution-happy methods of the higher-ups.
  • That was the point of Yaga telling him - he got back at him by burdening him with a dangerous secret.

Takada will be one of the final bosses
It will be Todo's greatest challenge ever.

Junpei is one big Shout-Out to Persona 3.
He shares his names with Junpei Iori, the resentful normal guy who becomes a genuine friend to the hero, and Chidori Yoshino, Junpei's off-kilter love interest who works for the villains. Like Junpei, he awakens to his full power after someone close to him dies, but like Chidori, he dies tragically and his loss shakes one of the heroes to his very core. His eye-covering haircut, asocial demeanor, and fighting style that involves a summoned creature also give him shades of P3's protagonist. Bonus points for the familiar being named after the moon, which is very important to Persona 3's plot.

Why Kenjaku is escorting people out of the Culling Game.
It seems like something the stolid chessmaster wouldn't do, assisting bystanders in escaping the death battles of the Culling Game... but because it's so out-of-character, we can assume that he gets something out of this. What he gets out of it is under question, however.
  • Kenjaku needs to keep the Culling Game going.
    • The Culling Game ends once one person obtains 400 points. Normally, this would be extremely difficult for someone to pull off, since killing 80 sorcerers or curses without dying or needing to add a new rule would be incredibly difficult. With defenseless humans, however, it suddenly gets a whole lot easier; while each human is only worth 1 point, there are a lot more of them than sorcerers, and with how weak they are, all it takes is one large enough attack to shoot someone up hundreds of points. Kenjaku's plan needs the Culling Game, however, so he's getting the easy targets out in order for it to continue for as long as he needs.
  • Kenjaku's plan to convert everyone to sorcerers requires normal humans to be outside of the barrier.
    • It's obvious that Kenjaku needs the Culling Game as a focal point for him to link everyone to Master Tengen and turn everyone into sorcerers. Because of this, however, it's likely that the people inside of the Culling Game area wouldn't be able to be affected by this. As such, Kenjaku is moving humans outside of the barrier, ensuring that there aren't any normal humans remaining.

The Itadoris are descended from Sukuna.
Yuji resembles Sukuna to an inordinate degree - the pink hair, the musculature, the bizarre strength, and so on. On top of that, he's apparently a one-in-a-million type of person able to serve as a vessel for Sukuna without dying. In addition, Kenjaku seemed to have specifically targeted Itadori Jin as the father of Sukuna's vessel. Knowing all of that, combined with how Ryoumen Sukuna was a mortal sorcerer before he became a curse, it's entirely possible that the Itadori family is descended from the King of All Curses.

  • And don't forget that Sukuna had a bit of a problem controlling Yuji's body once he swallowed the first finger. Yes, it could be chocked up for the fact that Sukuna was weak after being away for a long time. But remember, Yuji only possessed [Charles Atlas Superpower] abilites

Possible voice actors for upcoming characters.

Yuji's Domain Expansion is going to be called...
  • The Sorcery Fight. Or the Jujutsu Kaisen, and it'll involve a straight up fist fight between sorcerers with no Cursed Techniques allowed.
  • Benevolent Shrine. By the end of the series, Yuji will become the exact opposite of Sukuna and will thus answer his shrine with one of his own.

Kenjaku will steal Gojo's body.
With the conclusion of the fight between Gojo and Sukuna, Gojo's body has become perfectly available for Kenjaku to take over. Since Antigravity System shows that Kenjaku keeps the Cursed Techniques he obtains from possessing a body even after leaving it, he no longer needs Geto's body, as he no longer needs it to manipulate Gojo, he'll keep Cursed Spirit Manipulation after taking a new body, and while Kenjaku likely staying inside Geto's body since the body of a Special Grade sorcerer probably strengthened him a lot, Gojo is stronger than Geto still and has two broken Cursed Techniques besides. It would only make sense for the body-hopper to nab Gojo's remains, stitch them back together, and gain an extremely overpowered new vessel.

Yuji was meant to take Geto's place.
Prior to Geto's death at Gojo's hands, Kenjaku would have had no way to control Tengen after their evolution into a curse, which seems like an incredible oversight at the hands of such a master manipulator. However, prior to Geto's death, Kenjaku was busy using the body of Kaori in order to create Yuji. Assuming that Yuji's Cursed Technique really is a Cannibalism Superpower meant to help him serve as a perfect vessel for Sukuna, then it adds a whole new dimension to Kenjaku's plan. Perhaps originally, Kenjaku wanted Yuji to devour Sukuna's fingers and allow for Sukuna's rebirth, whereupon Kenjaku would take over Yuji's body, gaining the full power of Ryoumen Sukuna - a perfect tool to conquer the modern era - and a Cursed Technique that allows one to gain the powers of the things they devour. Combined with Kenjaku's ability to turn people into cursed objects small enough to easily eat, it would make Yuji an excellent way to take over Tengen's barriers and obtain Mahito's Idle Transfiguration, with that plan only being discarded when he was able to get his hands on Geto's body, giving him an improved version of the same power and letting him keep Sukuna as an active ally.
