Episode 12was a show-stealer due to Kento’s interrogation scene with Haruta Shigemo.

When does Nanami Kento die in Jujutsu Kaisen?

A favorite of mangaka Gege Akutami, Nanami Kento is a former student ofJujutsu High. He mentored Yuji Itadori and Takuma Ino following Satoru Gojo’s insistence. In the ensuing Shibuya Incident Arc, he assists Yuji and Megumi in finding Gojo and freeing him from captivity in the Prison Realm.

Unfortunately, the mentor falls midway during his journey to Gojo. Nanami Kento dies inChapter 120ofJujutsu Kaisenat the hands of Mahito after he is grievously injured by a swarm of transfigured humans. In his final moments, Kento sees the apparition of Haibara before giving his goodbyes to Yuji Itadori.

Season 2 Episode 12covered the manga chapters 98-101. Thus, Nanami Kento’s death will be around the 20th episode or later. It will be quite a shock for anime fans as the season comes to a close but currently, the hype is aroundEpisode 13which is scheduled to be released on October 19.
