**\[00:34\] Yuji**
There are so many of them!
**\[00:37\] Yuji**
I can't just ignore them!
**\[00:39\] Yuji**
But I don't have time to rescue everyone!
**\[00:41\] Yuji**
What do I do?!
**\[00:43\] Yuji**
The station... and Gojo-sensei...
are just up ahead, too!
**\[00:47\] Toge**
Roe!
**\[00:48\] Yuji**
That vocabulary!
**\[00:50\] Yuji**
Inumaki-senpai!
**\[00:52\] Toge**
Salmon!
**\[00:52\] Yuji**
Please help!
**\[00:53\] Toge**
Salmon, salmon.
***SIGN*** Episode 37

**\[01:03\] Toge**
Don't move!
***SIGN*** JUJUTSU KAISEN
Shibuya Incident
***SIGN*** 22:10 Shibuya Station, Interior

**\[03:30\] Choso**
**Yuji Itadori!**
**\[03:32\] Choso**
**My brothers' killer!**
**\[03:37\] Choso**
Convergence!
***SIGN*** Convergence
**\[03:40\] Narration**
Blood Manipulation: "Convergence"
**\[03:43\] Narration**
is a skill that involves applying pressure
to blood in order to compress it to its limit.
**\[03:50\] Narration**
The blood compressed with Convergence
**\[03:52\] Narration**
is then released through a single point.
**\[03:55\] Narration**
The initial speed of this blood
enhanced with cursed energy
**\[03:59\] Narration**
well exceeds the speed
of sound when released.
**\[04:02\] Narration**
This secret art of Blood
Manipulation is called...
***SIGN*** Piercing Blood
**\[04:08\] Choso**
Piercing Blood.
**\[04:23\] Choso**
**A double impact?**
**\[04:25\] Choso**
**What an odd technique.**
**\[04:42\] Choso**
There's something
**\[04:44\] Choso**
I have to ask you.
**\[04:47\] Choso**
Did my little brothers leave
behind any last words?
**\[04:51\] Yuji**
Brothers?
**\[04:52\] Choso**
Tsk.
**\[04:54\] Choso**
I'm talking about the ones you two killed.
**\[04:59\] Yuji**
No, not really.
**\[05:03\] Yuji**
But...
**\[05:06\] Yuji**
They were crying.
**\[05:11\] Choso**
Eso!
**\[05:12\] Choso**
Kechizu!
**\[05:17\] Choso**
Watch over me...
**\[05:19\] Choso**
This is your older brother!
**\[06:42\] Yuji**
**Shit...**
**\[06:45\] Yuji**
**He got distance on me again.**
**\[06:48\] Yuji**
**That beam of blood is too fast.**
**\[06:50\] Yuji**
**I have a 50/50 chance to dodge.**
**\[06:52\] Yuji**
**If my intuition is off and it hits my head...**
**\[06:55\] Yuji**
**I'm dead.**
**\[06:59\] Yuji**
**Then I should at least...**
**\[07:07\] Yuji**
**determine when he fires it myself.**
**\[07:11\] Choso**
**He's luring me out.**
**\[07:14\] Choso**
**Fine, then.**
**\[07:35\] Yuji**
**I knew it!**
**\[07:36\] Yuji**
**That attack is only fast when first fired.**
**\[07:39\] Yuji**
**Once I avoid it, I can lay on the pressure!**
**\[07:43\] Choso**
Supernova.
***SIGN*** Supernova
**\[08:17\] Choso**
**Tsk.**
**\[08:18\] Choso**
**I got hasty.**
**\[08:21\] Choso**
**It wasn't compressed enough.**
**\[08:26\] Yuji**
**Shit! This bastard...**
**\[08:31\] Yuji**
**is strong!**
**\[08:32\] Mechamaru**
**Hey!**
**\[08:34\] Mechamaru**
**Hey! What's the situation?**
**\[08:37\] Yuji**
Mechamaru! What have you been—
**\[08:39\] Mechamaru**
**Conserving energy.**
**\[08:40\] Mechamaru**
**There's still a lot I need to do.**
**\[08:42\] Mechamaru**
**Choso! Blood Manipulation, huh?**
**\[08:45\] Yuji**
You know about it?
**\[08:46\] Mechamaru**
**He's using the same**
**cursed technique as Kamo.**
**\[08:49\] Yuji**
That thin-eyed third year, huh?
**\[08:51\] Yuji**
Which means...
**\[08:52\] Mechamaru**
**I don't know its weakness.**
**\[08:54\] Yuji**
Geh!
**\[08:55\] Mechamaru**
**Blood Manipulation is treasured as one of**
**the Kamo clan's hereditary techniques.**
**\[09:00\] Mechamaru**
**The reason for that is "Convergence,"**
**which compresses blood with high pressure,**
**\[09:04\] Mechamaru**
**plus "Piercing Blood" and "Blood Blade,"**
**which are derived from that,**
**\[09:08\] Mechamaru**
**giving it a well-balanced response**
**in close, mid, and long range.**
**\[09:11\] Mechamaru**
**Since Choso won't bleed out,**
**he has no openings.**
**\[09:14\] Yuji**
Thanks for the critical infor—
**\[09:17\] Mechamaru**
**I don't know its weakness,**
**but I do have an idea.**
**\[09:20\] Yuji**
What is it?
**\[09:22\] Mechamaru**
**First, flee into the restroom.**
**\[09:24\] Yuji**
The restroom?! Why?!
**\[09:25\] Mechamaru**
**I'll explain later.**
**\[09:27\] Mechamaru**
**There's maybe a 10% chance this works.**
**\[09:29\] Mechamaru**
**Sorry, but if this fails,**
**brace yourself for death.**
**\[09:32\] Yuji**
That's cruel.
**\[09:33\] Mechamaru**
**At this rate, you'll just get worn**
**down until you're killed anyway.**
**\[09:45\] Choso**
**Idiot.**
**\[09:47\] Choso**
**That only leads to the**
**restrooms and the elevator.**
**\[09:50\] Choso**
**No matter which you run to,**
**you're trapped like a rat.**
**\[09:57\] Choso**
**What's that sound?**
**\[09:59\] Choso**
**This guy has beaten my brothers before.**
**\[10:02\] Choso**
**Those two wouldn't lose to some idiot.**
**\[10:04\] Choso**
**There's also that second voice**
**that suddenly appeared.**
**\[10:09\] Choso**
**It would be right to assume**
**he's planning something.**
**\[10:12\] Choso**
**Don't let your guard down.**
**\[10:13\] Mechamaru**
**What's wrong?**
**\[10:14\] Mechamaru**
**Not coming?**
**\[10:16\] Mechamaru**
**You're a coward, huh?**
**\[10:19\] Mechamaru**
**Just like your brothers.**
**\[10:22\] Choso**
**I'll kill you!**
***SIGN*** JUJUTSU KAISEN
***SIGN*** JUJUTSU KAISEN
**\[10:30\] Mechamaru**
**You really are just like them.**
**\[10:36\] Mechamaru**
**All three of you care**
**so much for each other.**
**\[10:39\] Mechamaru**
**It makes you easy to manipulate.**
**\[10:48\] Mechamaru**
**It's all gone well so far.**
**\[10:50\] Mechamaru**
**Now it's up to chance,**
**\[10:52\] Mechamaru**
**Yuji Itadori!**
**\[11:05\] Choso**
Too bad.
**\[11:08\] Choso**
**That was your last chance.**
**\[11:11\] Choso**
**You're the one with nowhere to run now!**
**\[11:20\] Choso**
**Convergence dissolved?!**
**\[11:23\] Narration**
In order to enhance the effects of
the Blood Manipulation Technique,
**\[11:27\] Narration**
users constantly have the coagulation
properties of their blood turned off.
**\[11:31\] Narration**
As a result, Choso's blood dissolves in
water more easily than that of others.
**\[11:37\] Narration**
On top of that, once exposed to water,
**\[11:40\] Narration**
the osmotic pressure causes the red blood
cells to expand and rupture their cell walls.
**\[11:47\] Narration**
This left him unable to control the blood
cells that comprise 45% of his blood,
**\[11:53\] Narration**
breaking his Convergence.
**\[11:57\] Narration**
Mechamaru's aim was on the mark.
**\[12:00\] Narration**
In that situation,
**\[12:02\] Narration**
it was impossible for Choso to use
Blood Manipulation outside his own body.
**\[12:12\] Choso**
**Flowing Red Scale - Stack.**
**\[12:16\] Narration**
Choso lacked combat experience,
**\[12:19\] Narration**
so he couldn't comprehend
what was happening to him.
**\[12:23\] Narration**
He just coldly accepted the new reality
**\[12:25\] Narration**
and conducted his blood
manipulation within his body.
**\[12:30\] Yuji**
**I don't understand the reasoning.**
**\[12:32\] Yuji**
**There wasn't any opportunity for me to ask.**
**\[12:35\] Yuji**
**But I do know one thing.**
**\[12:38\] Yuji**
**I've dragged him into my turf!**
**\[13:49\] Yuji**
**I can win!**
**\[13:52\] Narration**
Choso had been keeping a clot of blood from being exposed and dissolving
**\[13:57\] Narration**
in the water as he strengthened
said clot with cursed energy
**\[14:00\] Narration**
and compressed the
coagulated lump to its limit,
**\[14:05\] Narration**
so the moment Yuji Itadori
was convinced of victory,
**\[14:08\] Narration**
it pierced his liver.
**\[14:11\] Choso**
**Blood Manipulation: Blood Meteorite.**
**\[14:15\] Yuji**
**I screwed up! I assumed he couldn't**
**use any more projectiles!**
**\[14:18\] Yuji**
**What now? Where was I hit?**
**\[14:21\] Yuji**
**This isn't the same as when**
**I had a hole in my stomach!**
**\[14:24\] Yuji**
**It destroyed something**
**that shouldn't be broken!**
**\[14:27\] Yuji**
**I'm going to lose...**
**\[14:29\] Yuji**
**and die!**
**\[14:36\] Yuji**
**I understand what my role is.**
**\[14:39\] Yuji**
**Fushiguro, Kugisaki,**
**\[14:42\] Yuji**
**Nanamin, the other**
**upperclassmen, all of them**
**\[14:46\] Yuji**
**will pass through here on**
**their way to Gojo-sensei.**
**\[14:49\] Yuji**
**So even if I die, I'm taking this guy out.**
**\[14:53\] Yuji**
**I don't have to be the one**
**to rescue Gojo-sensei.**
**\[14:59\] Choso**
**Three hits.**
**\[15:00\] Choso**
**A mere three hits,**
**\[15:03\] Choso**
**not counting the ones I guarded against.**
**\[15:05\] Choso**
**Those blows I took from Itadori**
**dealt this much damage to me...**
**\[15:10\] Choso**
**Blood Meteorite's only**
**strength is its hardness.**
**\[15:12\] Choso**
**It doesn't have the speed**
**or impact of Piercing Blood.**
**\[15:15\] Choso**
**If I hadn't caught him by surprise,**
**it wouldn't have been able to pierce him.**
**\[15:20\] Narration**
Normally, Blood Manipulation sorcerers
**\[15:23\] Narration**
never coagulate blood like
he did for Blood Meteorite.
**\[15:26\] Narration**
Even Blood Blade only
solidifies the outline and
**\[15:29\] Narration**
circulates blood at high speeds
to heighten its lethality.
**\[15:33\] Narration**
Even those sorcerers with
Blood Manipulation can't
**\[15:36\] Narration**
extend their concentration
to every blood vessel at once.
**\[15:39\] Narration**
So when they strongly coagulate their blood,
**\[15:41\] Narration**
it always poses the risk of
causing spontaneous thrombosis.
**\[15:46\] Choso**
Bring it.
**\[15:48\] Narration**
However, Choso decided the risk
posed by Yuji Itadori was far greater.
**\[16:21\] Yuji**
**He's strong!**
**\[16:32\] Yuji**
**A tooth?!**
**\[16:37\] Yuji**
**It was a feint?!**
**\[17:47\] Yuji**
**Not yet!**
**\[17:52\] Yuji**
**I haven't used my left fist since the start.**
**\[17:56\] Yuji**
**He probably believes I can't use it anymore.**
**\[17:59\] Yuji**
**So this attack using my**
**right fist as a distraction**
**\[18:06\] Yuji**
**will land!**
**\[18:11\] Yuji**
**What was that response I felt?**
**\[18:30\] Choso**
Too bad.
**\[18:47\] Choso**
He's still breathing.
**\[19:00\] Choso**
Apologize...
**\[19:03\] Choso**
to my brothers in the afterlife!
**\[19:10\] Sukuna**
How worthless.
**\[19:12\] Sukuna**
Losing to such riffraff.
**\[20:02\] Choso**
What?
**\[20:10\] Narration**
In that moment,
**\[20:11\] Narration**
memories flooded Choso's mind.
***SIGN*** Memories that didn't exist.
**\[20:13\] Narration**
Memories that didn't exist.
**\[21:02\] Yuji**
Hey!
**\[21:04\] Yuji**
You, too, Brother!
**\[21:18\] Choso**
What's happening? You're...
**\[23:22\] Nanako**
There he is.
**\[23:31\] Mimiko**
He's alive, right?
**\[23:33\] Nanako**
Yeah.
**\[23:35\] Nanako**
Let's get this started, then.
**\[23:40\] Kugisaki**
Moan-day?
**\[23:42\] Fushiguro**
Monday.
**\[23:43\] Kugisaki**
Tuesday!
**\[23:44\] Yuji**
Mhmm!
**\[23:45\] Kugisaki**
Weh-do-ness-day?
**\[23:46\] Fushiguro**
Wednesday.
**\[23:47\] Kugisaki**
Screw this!
**\[23:48\] Yuji**
Next time, "Fluctuations."
***SIGN*** Next Episode
Fluctuations
**\[23:49\] Kugisaki**
Who the hell came up with these readings?!
**\[23:52\] Fushiguro**
Someone smarter than you, dummy.
