Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 269 Spoilers Raise Hopes for Gojo’s Return
Sep. 12, 2024Spoiler Warning: This article includes spoilers for the Jujutsu Kaisen manga.
Gojo was the strongest sorcerer in the Jujutsu world, but despite having the Six Eyes and immense power, he was defeated and killed by Sukuna in Chapter 236. Since then, every fan has been hoping to see him return. Well, the blindfolded sorcerermade a surprising entry in Chapter 260, but later, we learned that Yuta Okkotsu was using his body and techniques to defeat the King of Curses. Well, now that Yuji has finallyput an end to Sukuna’s storyin Chapter 268, the spoilers for the upcoming chapter have revealed that Yuta and Higuruma are alive. So, based on the events discussed in JJK Chapter 269 spoilers, fans have high hopes for Gojo’s revival.
Yuta Okkutsu Is Back in his Original Body
We have to appreciate how Yuta left behind Rika and contributed to the fight against Sukuna. He jumped onto the battlefield in the most unthinkable way, as he took possession of his own sensei, Gojo Satoru’s body. He perplexed fans by making us believe that our favorite character was finally back. However, sadly, our happiness was short-lived, as Gege didn’t take longer to reveal the truth. It was quite disheartening seeingGojo as a puppet.
In Chapter 268, Sukuna finally got what he deserved, and Yuji must be thanked for that. The boy worked hard to improve his skill set, and the previous chapter proved that. After a brief hiatus, theJJK manga returns with Chapter 269showcasing the aftermath, and the early spoilers have already surfaced.
We get to meet every surviving sorcerer, including Yuta, who is back in his own body. He also does not hesitate to open up and say that he can’t control the pressure of the gifted sorcerer’s body. So, he used Kenjaku’s CT and returned to his original body, which Rika helped him keep intact.
Gege Akutami is an unpredictable author, and until now, nobody has been able to figure out what he wants from the characters and where he wants the story to go.
After making us believe that our beloved sensei is gone and will not return, the new chapter of JJK hasagain raised our hopes. That’s because not only Yuta but Higuruma has also survived, so it’s obvious fans will become hopeful for Gojo’s return as well.
Higuruma is nowhere in front of Gojo when it comes to their powers or the significance they have in the story. So, it won’t make any sense for Higurama to return and Gojo to stay dead. Also,Jujutsu Kaisen will end with Chapter 271, and Gege is currently focussing on the Tengen lore, hinting towards the possibility of JJK Part 2 (a fan can dream, come on).
Tengen’s backstory, or the entire lore, is of great significance in JJK’s world, and it wasn’t explored much in the story. We only learned a little about it in the Hidden Inventory arc. But now, when only a couple of chapters are left before the manga ends, Gege has decided to focus on Tengen
So, many fans believe that Gege is setting up Part 2 of Jujutsu Kaisen by bringing characters such as Yuta and Higurama back to life and turning focus toward Tengen’s lore. If that happens, it would be wise for the author to bring Gojo Satoru back, as the sequel project would be incomplete without our sensei.
If that doesn’t happen and Gojo doesn’t return, fans will always remember that Gege has decided to go the extra mile to bring a character like Higurama (always considered a side character) back from the dead, but let a highly popular and significant character die.
Regardless, this is simply what the community is expecting to see happen in the manga, but as of now, there’s no confirmation about Gojo’s comeback. However, one must wonderwhy there’s no mention of Gojo’s bodyin the manga as of now. Since Yuta has now returned to his own body, someone will surely mention Gojo in the final chapter.
Either that or Gojo will return to life, and the community will stop using words like “heartless” or “cruel” for Gege. Only time will tell what will happen in the story.
