Jujutsu Kaisen: Sukuna May be Hiding His Biggest Trick Yet as Gojo’s Own Powers Come Back to Haunt Him
Spoiler Alert
Fans finally got some Jujutsu Kaisen content after Gege Akutami took a long hiatus after suffering from health issues. The spoiler for the new Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter, which is surprisingly just Chapter 262 Part 2 and not Chapter 263, has fans flipping out about the future of the series.
The Chapter 262 Part 2 spoiler was absolutely breathtaking. It brought back a character that most fans believed was done for and certainly left the King of Curses staring down at a shotgun barrel by the end of the chapter. But does this really mean that Sukuna is done for?
Body Swap Evolution! How Sukuna can counter Yuta’s gradual mastery of the Limitless CT
Jujutsu Kaisen, Chapter 262 Part 2 started where the previous chapter left off, with Rika holding the lifeless body of Yuta Okkotsu. However, as the fans went on to read the chapter, it went on a completely different trajectory from what fans had initially expected.
Given how Chapter 262 “Part 1” ended, fans were expecting Rika to go on a destructive rampage against Sukuna. However, Rika would only appear during the first panel of the recent chapter. Chapter 262 “Part 2” showed fans Yuta getting accustomed to the Limitless Cursed Technique and Gojo’s massive frame. But fortunately for fans, the chapter would feature a fan-favorite character stepping up to fight Sukuna.
In the chapter, we see Yuta coming to an understanding that Sukuna’s world-cutting slash was inaccessible to the King of Curses due to the missing limbs. However, it didn’t seem like it mattered as much as Sukuna easily disrupted Yuta’s hand sign for the hollow purple and punched him away, knowing a Hollow Purple could end his life. However, Yuta would use the Blue technique to pull a recorder closer to Sukuna and Inumaki’s voice, yelling “Don’t Move”, stopping Sukuna, for the copy curse technique user to prep for a Hollow Purple and ending the chapter with Sukuna being on the back foot.
Yuta can’t use any CT other than Gojo’s limitless right now. He notices that since the time Sukuna lost his left arm, he hasn’t used world cutting slash. Yuta thinks Sukuna doesn’t has no other ways to overcome limitless other than using Amplification https://t.co/4U9QH2fVYM

However, given that Yuta isn’t the main protagonist of the series, it would be safe to assume that this wouldn’t be the end for Sukuna. With how things are going, Sukuna might pull out the biggest trick in his bag, with his back cornered. And not to forget, Sukuna being Gege Akutami’s favorite character, it’s hard to imagine the King of Curses meeting his end by Gojo’s body. But Given the unpredictability of Gege, it’s impossible to guess what comes next for the characters in Jujutsu Kaisen.
How Gege Akutami revealed his superior foreshadowing in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 262 Part 2
Despite just having 13 pages, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 262 Part 2 was memorable, to say the least. The chapter had moments where we had to rewind back to the old chapters to truly understand the depth of the panels. It showed Gege Akutami’s showing off his foreshadowing skills in crafting a story and it certainly left fans impressed.
The recent chapter had fans going all the way back to Chapter 222 to truly understand what Yuta truly meant when he told Inumaki, “I’ll be putting you to work”. But this isn’t all as one of the most important questions about the honored one in the series.
Fans finally got the answer to Suguru Geto’s question, “Are you the strongest because you’re Satoru Gojo? Or are you Satoru Gojo because you’re the strongest?”. However, unfortunately for fans, the answer is revealed by Yuta Okkotsu as he is figuring out how hard his Sensei must’ve worked to truly bring out the full potential of the 6 eyes and the Limitless Cursed technique.
