• Why does Rika Orimoto become a cursed spirit after she dies?▾

  Rika's death in a car accident triggers a powerful curse because of Yuta Okkotsu's overwhelming love for her — his inability to let her go spiritually binds her soul to the physical world as a cursed spirit. In Jujutsu Kaisen lore, curses arise from intense human emotions such as grief and obsessive attachment. Rika's spirit is essentially trapped by Yuta's subconscious wish that she would never leave him, transforming her into what Geto calls the 'Queen of Curses.'

• Who actually cursed Rika, and how is this revealed?▾

  The film's central revelation is that Yuta himself — not some external force — unconsciously cursed Rika. At the moment of her death, his desperate emotional plea for her to stay became a binding curse that prevented her soul from passing on. Gojo confirms this at the end, explaining that the curse was always a projection of Yuta's own immense jujutsu energy and love, not anything Rika chose.

• What happens to Rika at the end of the film?▾

  After Yuta channels nearly all of his cursed energy through Rika during the final battle against Geto, he declares that he is releasing her from the curse. Her spirit is freed and she briefly appears in human form to say a final goodbye before peacefully dissolving. Yuta loses the power amplification she provided, but gains genuine control over his own natural cursed energy and a sense of closure.

• Why does Suguru Geto choose Christmas Eve to launch the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons?▾

  Geto orchestrates the attack on Christmas Eve because it is one of the most crowded public nights in Japan, maximizing civilian casualties and spreading terror to accelerate his ideology that only sorcerers deserve to live in the world. The mass release of cursed spirits is also designed to overwhelm and destroy the Jujutsu High students before they mature into full sorcerers who could oppose him. It functions simultaneously as a statement of his worldview and a tactical attempt to eliminate the next generation of opposition.

• What does Gojo mean when he says Yuta has the potential to surpass even him?▾

  Gojo is referring to the sheer density and volume of Yuta's innate cursed energy, which he assesses as extraordinary even by the standards of special-grade sorcerers. Unlike Gojo, whose power is tied to the inherited Six Eyes and Limitless technique, Yuta's cursed energy is raw and unstructured — making it unusually adaptable and still-growing. This positions Yuta not as a replica of Gojo but as a distinct generational talent whose upper ceiling remains unknown.
