As “Jujutsu Kaisen” nears its conclusion with Chapter 271, fans are left wondering about the potential return of Satoru Gojo, amid subtle hints scattered throughout the manga.
The saga, created by Gege Akutami, is approaching its finale, raising the stakes higher than ever. In the climactic arc, Yuji Itadori and his allies have successfully battled Ryomen Sukuna, a confrontation that has kept readers riveted as numerous sorcerers sacrificed themselves in the fight.
In a particularly intense sequence, the showdown between Gojo and Sukuna culminated in a shocking twist—Gojo, known as “The Honored One,” was brutally defeated, leaving fans in disbelief when Sukuna cut him in two.
Despite this, speculation about Gojo’s return has gained traction online. Many fans are hopeful, particularly in light of Yuta Okkotsu’s recent resurrection in Chapter 269, which has rekindled discussions about the possibility of Gojo’s revival.
Yuta, an essential character in the fight against Sukuna, demonstrated remarkable resilience. After playing a pivotal role in defeating Kenjaku, Yuta’s fate took a turn similar to Gojo’s; however, Rika’s reverse curse technique allowed him to defy death. Notably, Yuta temporarily inhabited Gojo’s body, using Kenjaku’s abilities to restore him—though with caveats regarding control and the healing of his injuries.
As Yuta’s own life began to wane, he returned to his original body, raising questions about the potential for Gojo’s survival as well. Observers have noted that within the “Jujutsu Kaisen” universe, sorcerers have yet to fully acknowledge Gojo’s death. Conversations among characters, such as Hakari, have only referred to Gojo’s “defeat,” not his demise, fueling speculation about his fate.
Fans remain cautiously optimistic, interpreting the lack of mourning among sorcerers as a sign that Gojo may not be permanently gone. Additionally, parallels can be drawn from Yuta and Higuruma’s recoveries from similar injuries, reinforcing the notion that Gojo could return through reverse-cursed techniques.
While Yuta’s unconventional approach to bringing Gojo back may not align with fan expectations, there is a lingering belief that Gojo could make a comeback, especially considering his past escapes from death, notably during his encounter with Toji Fushiguro.
However, the reality remains uncertain. Akutami is known for emotionally charged storytelling, leaving fans to ponder whether Gojo’s return is indeed in the cards or if it’s merely a hopeful wish in a narrative filled with loss and sacrifice. As the final chapter approaches, readers can only wait to see how this epic tale unfolds.
