“The Insane Hate Towards Gojo”: Jujutsu Kaisen Fans Question Why the Sorcerer Can’t Come Back to Life Like His Student

Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 269 is scheduled for release on September 16, 2024. Spoilers for the chapter have already surfaced, revealing that Gojo’s return remains a fantasy, despite the author resurrecting characters previously thought dead. Although the Honored One’s soul seemingly perished in a location surrounded by deceased companions, his comeback is still a possibility.

Recent spoilers confirm the revival of Okkotsu Yuta and Higuruma, both of whom were believed to be dead. Higuruma’s return is logical since he was transported to Jujutsu High shortly before his demise, while Yuta’s consciousness was transferred to another body, casting doubt on his survival. This situation has ignited calls from Gojo’s fans for their beloved character’s revival.

Jujutsu Kaisen: Why is the fandom fervently requesting Gojo’s comeback?

Chapter 269 of Jujutsu Kaisen picks up from the last chapter, where the main trio enters Jujutsu Tech and finds Yuta fully healed, despite prior indications that his survival would be a challenge.

The reason for his revival lies in Rika’s continuous provision of reverse cursed energy, which allegedly prevented his body from decaying. This act aided Yuta’s soul in returning to his body, making the dynamics of his survival and Kenjaku’s cursed technique contentious.

With a ‘potentially’ revived character, the fandom has begun demanding the return of the Honored One, who also perished early in the Shinjuku Showdown arc of Jujutsu Kaisen. Fans express their frustration over perceived unfairness, noting that Gojo’s body was entirely healed (stitched) after death, unlike others.

Fan Reactions

Unsurprisingly, due to the controversial resurrection of Okkotsu Yuta, many fans voiced their dissatisfaction regarding the absence of their favored sorcerer. The community firmly believes that Gojo’s return is inevitable in forthcoming chapters.

Conversely, some fans voiced their frustration towards the author, arguing that Gege’s decision not to revive the Honored One constitutes poor writing, especially since Yuta’s return occurred without sufficient explanation.

“I swear he better be coming back, if Yuta could then it only makes sense that the GOAT comes back too,”one fan asserted.

“Literally makes 0 sense that Gojo would be unable to come back. He will rise!!!!!”another fan exclaimed.

“Yuta got world slashed and his brain taken from his body and still came back, Gojo got world slashed, and his body completely healed. All signs point to him needing to come back or it’s terrible writing lol,”another fan contributed.

“They also think Gege is going to conclude the manga without even acknowledging Gojo like, can y’all stop dooming for like 2 seconds,”one more commented.

The longing for the Honored One’s return started as a mere fantasy among the fanbase. However, with Gege Akutami’s recent narrative choices, it would seem unjust if Gojo doesn’t make a comeback.

Still, certain criteria must be evaluated before making such demands. Unlike Yuta, who was resurrected due to Rika’s healing, Gojo’s body was merely stitched by Shoko to enable Yuta to inhabit it and combat Sukuna. This distinction could significantly influence Gojo’s potential return.
