The release of Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 261 spoilers confirms a popular fan theory surrounding Yuta Okkotsu. It has been revealed that it was actually Yuta, not Satoru Gojo, who returned to the battlefield, inhabiting the body of the latter.
Despite a popular fan theory, it was unexpected that Yuta would acquire Gojo’s Six Eyes through Kenjaku’s Cursed Technique, as they were both believed to be related.
The recent Jujutsu Kaisen chapter leaks surprised many fans as they revealed that Yuta had Rika consume Kenjaku’s head after his defeat. This resulted in the special grade sorcerer learning the body swap technique, which he then used to take over Gojo’s body. The upcoming chapter delves into the strategy devised by Jujutsu sorcerers and also explores Gojo’s perspective on what would happen to his body after his death.
Please note: This article includes spoilers for the series.
Explaining how Yuta Obtained the Six Eyes by Possessing Satoru Gojo’s Body in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261
The latest chapter of the manga revealed that Satoru Gojo’s body had been infiltrated by Yuta Okkotsu’s brain on the battlefield. The chapter confirmed that Yuta had utilized his Cursed Technique (CT) to consume Kenjaku’s head, granting him the ability to control and possess other individuals’ bodies. With the help of Shoko Ieiri, Yuta successfully took over Gojo’s body by utilizing his CT.
The fanbase had long speculated that Yuta would inherit Gojo’s Six Eyes upon the latter’s death at the hands of Ryomen Sukuna. However, most of these theories centered around a process for Yuta to solely obtain the eyes. To the surprise of many, author Gege Akutami revealed that Yuta would actually fully take over Gojo’s body, a contingency plan devised by the sorcerers in case Satoru fell in battle against Sukuna.
Despite the potentially unsettling and outlandish nature of the plan, it remains consistent with the story’s established events and aligns with Yuta’s Cursed Technique and abilities. With the ability to mimic others and the assistance of Shoko’s body-switching, there is sufficient in-universe reasoning for this course of action. Additionally, acquiring the Six Eyes would require Yuta to possess Gojo’s body.
Possible Events in Future Chapters
It can be stated that the release of Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 261 has left many readers surprised, particularly those who were eagerly anticipating Satoru Gojo’s return. However, the most captivating aspect lies in the events that will unfold in the upcoming chapters. Certain characters have mentioned that Yuta can only sustain Gojo’s body for a brief period, making it crucial for him to utilize his time wisely in order to defeat Sukuna.
While it is improbable that Sukuna will be killed by Yuta, there is a high likelihood that he will sustain serious injuries. Additionally, Yuji Itadori may intervene and ultimately defeat Sukuna, especially since he had the advantage in their previous encounter with the help of Aoi Todo’s Cursed Technique in chapter 260.
Concluding Remarks
The latest chapter of Jujutsu Kaisen, chapter 261, has officially confirmed a theory that has been circulating within the fandom for quite some time. It was believed that due to their distant familial connection, Yuta Okkotsu would inherit Satoru Gojo’s Six Eyes ability. However, what caught many readers by surprise was Yuta’s unexpected takeover of Gojo’s body, which he achieved by copying Kenjaku’s Cursed Technique.
