Jujutsu Kaisen S2 Episode 15. Keiichiro Watanabe is one talented animator he cooked with the Toji fighting dagon sequence & the anime made the Sukuna scene brutal with the sound effects. Sukuna & Toji content are always top tier. #JujutsuKaisen #呪術廻戦

However, Toji enters from one of the Domain openings and proceeds to destroy the Curse physically. Slashing and cutting so much that Dagon’s healing factor wasn’t enough.
