Maki Zenin Goes Through a Powerful Transformation
Maki Zenin’s role in the Shibuya arc comes to an end at the hands of Jogo after the defeat of Dagon at the hands of Toji Fushiguro. The only reason Maki survived the attempted immolation by Jogo was because of her body’s superhuman properties. After this, Maki goes through a big transformation which not only changes her appearance but gives her incomparable strength and power. Her new internal alterations, on the other hand, have been brought out by some horrible strife and loss.
According to Chapter 149 of theJujutsu Kaisenmanga, Mai Zenin died in an attempt to save her twin sister Maki, which has a significant impact on Maki. After Maki’s twin sister Mai dies, the restrictions on her “Heavenly Restriction” are lifted. She was granted complete access to superhuman strength, speed, and durability, which had previously been constrained by the limited quantity of cursed energy she had held at birth but had been eliminated by her sister’s sacrifice.

Maki Zenin’s transformation after her sister’s death makes her one of the strongest characters in the upcoming culling games and probably in the entire series. Her new scarred look also adds the essence of a rebel to her character and she will surely be loved once her new transformation makes an entrance on the screen after the Shibuya Incident arc of season 2.
