Kenjaku is the mastermind behind the Shibuya Incident. Kenjaku's goal in carrying out this attack is to eliminate his biggest obstacle, namely Gojo

Kento Nanami becomes one of the key figures in the rescue effort of Gojo. However, in the middle of the journey, Nanami, Maki, and Naobito must face Dagon.

Dagon's abilities were quite troublesome, but they managed to get out of Dagon's Domain Expansion thanks to Megumi and Toji who was resurrected.

But when they managed to get out of the domain, Jogo was already waiting for them. Seeing Dagon die at Toji's hands, Jogo immediately went on a rampage by burning Nanami, Maki, and Naobito. 

After being burned by Jogo, Nanami still managed to survive even though half of her body was burnt.

In a near-death state, Nanami is still strong enough to fight dozens of people who were turned into Cursed Spirits. 

Unfortunately, Nanami had to meet Mahito. Nanami, who was already helpless, was finally killed by Mahito in front of Yuji.

Nobara Kugisaki

After Nanami's death, Mahito fights with Yuji. Then Mahito split himself into two to look for Nobara.

After finding Nobara, the Mahito clone invites Nobara to meet Yuji who is fighting the real Mahito.  In order to destroy Yuji's mentality, Mahito immediately kills Nobara in front of Yuji.

Nobara received a very fatal wound so she was immediately taken by Arata Nitta. Nitta did manage to stop Nobara's bleeding, but Nitta also emphasized that the chances of Nobara surviving were very slim.

Naobito Zenin
