In Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 7, Kokichi and Mahito continue their fight. Kokichi gives Mahito a run for his money during the majority of the battle and utilizes nifty techniques.

Unfortunately, Mahito defeats Kokichi and flees with Suguru to initiate his plan. 

We cut to Halloween night at the Tokyu Department Store’s Tokyo Outlet. People are trapped inside a veil and we get several glimpses of different sorcerer teams led by Kento, Atsuya, and Naobito. They receive intel about what’s going on from Akari and Kiyotaka and we learn about Satoru’s involvement.

The episode closes with Satoru entering the veil and apologizing to a random citizen.
