The release of Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 268 has caused a major stir on the Internet due to the abundance of spoilers. This chapter not only concluded the lengthy Shinjuku Showdown arc and Ryomen Sukuna’s reign of terror, but it also brought together the much-awaited reunion of the beloved main trio in the series.
Chapter 268 of Jujutsu Kaisen is proving to be one of the most fast-paced and unpredictable chapters yet. This is due to the unexpected reunion of Yuji Itadori, Nobara Kugisaki, and Megumi Fushiguro, who were last seen laughing and enjoying each other’s company in the same chapter where the King of Curses met his demise.
Additionally, the upcoming chapter’s popularity on social media is not solely due to these reasons. It also includes numerous references to the anime’s noteworthy scenes, causing a stir among the entire fandom.

Despite Yuji Itadori’s successful separation of Ryomen Sukuna from Megumi Fushiguro’s body, the powerful King of Curses was left as mere remnants. While Yuji did offer Sukuna the opportunity to continue living within him, the enraged entity rejected the offer and ultimately chose to perish as a malevolent spirit.
Still, the most unforgettable moment of Yuji’s monologue is his declaration to Sukuna, “You Are Me.”Dedicated followers of the series will recall that this line echoes the infamous scene from the Shibuya Incident arc, where Yuji utters “I Am You”to his archenemy, Mahito, following their intense battle.
In addition, chapter 268 of Jujutsu Kaisen also featured a reference to one of its most beloved gags, causing many fans to become emotional.
When Megumi awoke at Jujutsu High, he was surprised to see Yuji pushing a cart with Nobara inside towards him. He was left feeling perplexed and curious about their intentions. Upon asking, Yuji and Nobara revealed their plan to surprise Megumi with a “Kugisaki Revival Surprise.”
As soon as they witnessed this scene, it became apparent to fans that it was yet another reference to Yuji’s well-known “Oppappi”prank on Megumi and Nobara prior to the Kyoto Sister-School Goodwill Event. In this prank, Yuji unexpectedly reappeared from a cart, symbolizing his return from death. This moment continues to be one of the most beloved and comical moments in the series, evoking nostalgia for the early days among fans.
In episode 21 of the first season of the anime, there was yet another reference to one of Jujutsu Kaisen’s most beloved scenes. The scene in question depicts Megumi waking up at the infirmary of Jujutsu High, accompanied by Nobara and Yuji, after the events of the Kyoto Sister-School Goodwill Event arc.
The sight of Megumi waking up at Jujutsu High with his friends brought back memories of the earlier scene in the anime, which many consider to be one of the most humorous moments in the entire series.
