Jujutsu Kaisen Manga Chapter 159
The chapter focuses on Hiromi Higuruma, a skilled public defense lawyer who deeply believes in justice but has grown frustrated with the system. He takes on Keita Oe’s case — a young man accused of killing a mother and daughter, even though the evidence against him is weak and mostly circumstantial.
Keita insists he’s innocent, explaining he only handled the bloody knife out of fear and desperation from his harsh working conditions.
Trusting Keita, Higuruma begins a careful investigation. He reviews the case, spots inconsistencies, and gathers evidence suggesting Keita may have been wrongly accused.
As the investigation unfolds, Higuruma sees how easily the legal system can be manipulated, leaving him even more disillusioned. This chapter not only introduces Higuruma’s character but also shows his growing frustration with injustice — hinting at the important role he will play in the Culling Game.
