Does Kugisaki Nobara Die in Jujutsu Kaisen? Answered
As it stands, Nobara Kugisaki did die in Jujutsu Kaisen during the Shinjuku arc. She was killed by the curse Mahito while fighting him alongside Itadori Yuji. Though they put up a good fight and her cursed technique was perfectly suited to injuring Mahito, he was able to make contact with her and cause the left side of her head to explode. Multiple panels showed her to be dead as well, with some even showing her eye blown out and a sizable hole taking its place. Because Itadori still hadn’t gained control of Sukuna’s powers and wasn’t able to use reverse cursed energy to save her immediately, there was no way to prevent her fate either.
Can Kugisaki Nobara Be Brought Back to Life?
However, none of this means that Kugisaki Nobara is permanently dead in Jujutsu Kaisen. This is because Todo Aoi’s kouhai, Arata Nitta, used his cursed energy technique to keep her body and its injuries in a frozen state after they arrived to help Itadori. This kept her body stuck in the brief moments following her death, leaving open the chance that she could be healed and resurrected by a reverse cursed technique used by the likes of Shoko Ieiri or Okkotsu Yuta. Whether or not one of the Jujutsu Sorcerers who had this technique got to her, though, is still unknown. While Itadori and Fushiguro Megumi have mentioned her in passing in more recent arcs, she still hasn’t made an appearance or been confirmed to be permanently alive or dead. As for when this information will be revealed, your guess is as good as ours. To that end, we’ll be keeping up with the manga and will update this article accordingly once the information presents itself.
