Shortly after the exchange event team battle begins, Todo ambushes the Tokyo students. Yuji moves to stop him but soon finds himself surrounded.

Todo gives Yuji advice on how to better tap into his curse powers. After Kugisaki taunts Nishimiya, Panda fights the remote-controlled Mechamaru.

Team Mei Mei are reassigned to a veil that has been lowered over Meiji Shrine Station. The team splits up and Yuji encounters a grasshopper curse assigned to protecting the veil. Elsewhere Satoru Gojo encounters Jogo, Hanami, and Choso.

After being severely injured in his fight against Toji, Fushiguro suffers a surprise attack from Shigemo. On the verge of death, Fushiguro desperately heads toward Dougenzaka crossing and summons a certain Shikigami with his Ten Shadows Technique.

Itadori reawakens with grievous resolve as he bears witness to the aftermath Sukuna has wrought upon Shibuya. Meanwhile, Nanami continues to fight through packs of transfigured humans in an exhausted haze until Mahito appears before him.

Itadori launches into a back-and-forth battle against Mahito, but he struggles against Mahito's ploy of using average people against him. Meanwhile, Kugisaki encounters one of Mahito's separated bodies as she returns to the battlefield.

Itadori stands in a daze at the disaster before his eyes, his mind already well past its limit. As a curse, Mahito is elated at seeing his ideal sequence of events play out before him, and he prepares to further finish off Itadori.
