On December 24, 2017, the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons took place in Shinjuku and Kyoto. A thousand curses were released in Shinjuku by Suguru Geto. To face the curse user's forces, many jujutsu sorcerers, including Satoru and Masamichi Yaga, assembled to battle them.[3] Gojo confronted Miguel, one of Suguru's commanders, in a fight that raged throughout the ward.[4][5]
Shinjuku Showdown Arc
Large portions of Shinjuku decimated by the fight with Sukuna.
Following the Shibuya Incident on October 31st, 2018, all twenty-three wards of Tokyo were compromised.[6] Shinjuku was left desolate, off-limits to the public, and home to only cursed spirits. With no bystanders around, Makyo Shinjuku was the ideal location for a clash between the most destructive sorcerers in history, becoming the battlefield for the jujutsu sorcerers' raid on Sukuna. Great portions of the city were decimated by powerful acts of jujutsu sorcery, including two Hollow Purple techniques that carved through Shinjuku.[7][8] As the raid continued, Shinjuku was further ravaged by the battle. Uraume's ice froze over a section of the city during their fight with Hakari[9] and Sukuna unleashed his domain as well as his Divine Flame, annihilating a far more massive area.[10]
