Jujutsu Kaisen: The Fate of Gojo Satoru: “A Possible Comeback, But Not Without Sacrifices”

Jujutsu Kaisen fans were left in shock with Chapter 236, witnessing the apparent demise of the indomitable Gojo Satoru in a fierce battle against the King of Curses, Ryomen Sukuna. The aftermath unfolded in a mysterious realm where Gojo was reunited with his late friend Suguru Geto, and faced with a crucial decision to go North or South. The chapter concluded with a haunting image – Gojo cleaved in half, signaling the fall of the strongest sorcerer.

However, recent developments and a teaser from Gege Akutami have ignited speculation about Gojo’s potential return, albeit with a significant twist. This article delves into the clues provided and the potential consequences of the “full resurrection.”

Warning: Spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen manga ahead.

Signs of Gojo’s Return

Gege Akutami, the author of Jujutsu Kaisen, kicked off 2024 with illustrations of Gojo and Sukuna to promote the upcoming Volume 25 of the manga. Accompanying this, a special promotional video was released on January 3, 2024, featuring a phrase in Japanese that translates to “full resurrection.” This phrase has sparked speculation among fans, hinting at the possible return of Gojo Satoru.

Notably, the promotional video showcased what appeared to be chains around Gojo’s eyes, leading fans to speculate about Binding Vows. A prevailing theory suggests that on the brink of death, Gojo might make a binding vow, sacrificing his Six Eyes and relinquishing the title of “Strongest Sorcerer” to survive. This sacrifice, if true, would significantly nerf Gojo, making his return more intriguing.

The Meaning of “Full Resurrection”

The phrase “full resurrection” could also be interpreted in relation to Ryomen Sukuna. In the latter part of the Culling Games, Sukuna takes over Megumi Fushiguro’s body, dispatches several formidable opponents, and begins his quest to regain his original demonic form from the Heian Period. The term “full resurrection” might allude to Sukuna’s complete revival, transitioning from Megumi’s body to his true demonic state.

Potential Consequences and Final Thoughts

The anticipation for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 has skyrocketed as fans eagerly await the animated adaptation of the impending clash between Gojo Satoru and Ryomen Sukuna. The speculated return of Gojo, coupled with the ambiguous nature of “full resurrection,” adds layers of intrigue to the narrative.

Whether it’s Gojo’s comeback with sacrifices or Sukuna’s resurgence in his true form, Jujutsu Kaisen enthusiasts can only wait with bated breath for further details. MAPPA’s track record promises an extraordinary portrayal of the anticipated battle, making the series even more thrilling for its dedicated audience. Only time will reveal the enigmatic fate that awaits Gojo Satoru and the unfolding events in the Jujutsu Kaisen universe
