Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 is just around the corner, as there's no break for the series this week. Fans are incredibly excited for this chapter, possibly more than any other chapter in the entire series, and this is due to the return of a beloved character, Gojo. Fans had hoped that Gojo's return would be confirmed before the end of the story, but for many, that hope was slowly fading.

Just when they least expected it, Gege shocked fans by making another strong comeback, being called a ghost for now. However, from here on out, things will only get more exciting.

Gojo's Return

Gojo Return will take center stage at JJK 261

In the previous chapter of JJK, fans saw Gojo's return right at the end. This happened immediately after Sukuna attempted to expand his domain for the second time, and just as he made the palm sign for the new Malevolent Shrine, Gojo, the ghost he had buried alone, appeared before him. Even though Sukuna knew he had dealt with Gojo, he appeared before him once more. It's also possible that the one who actually cast the domain wasn't Sukuna, but Gojo. Fans never got to see who exactly said the words "Domain Expansion," and while one might be led to believe it was Sukuna, given his palm sign, it could easily have been Gojo, especially since his body was covered in smoke.

Sukuna saw… what his hands buried. The ghost of the strongest!

Of course, the biggest debate here will be whether this individual is actually Gojo or a spirit. What fans need to go by is what's stated in the story. Clearly, Gojo is in front of Sukuna, and the editor also confirms that his eyes are unmistakable. Unless there's explicit confirmation that this person isn't Gojo, fans simply have to accept that Gojo is back.

This paves the way for another battle between Gojo and Sukuna, one where he'll likely join forces with his students to attack the King of Curses. This battle is just beginning to enter its final stages, and it looks like Gojo will be a big part of it.

A domain expansion to look forward to

A domain will likely be expanded in JJK 261

As mentioned earlier, JJK Chapter 261 will likely feature a prominent domain expansion. Sukuna made the palm sign for the Malevolent Shrine in the previous chapter, and fans were led to believe he also uttered the words "domain expansion." However, there's no explicit confirmation that the person who said the domain expansion was Sukuna. It could easily have been Gojo, and that's where things get exciting. Either way, fans have a domain expansion to look forward to in the next chapter. If it was Gojo who uttered those words, then fans may see Unlimited Void once again. Fans know this domain expansion is incredibly dangerous and will further incapacitate Sukuna. Sukuna likely won't fall here in this case; however, JJK Chapter 261 would still cause him to lose his domain once again.

When Gojo Satoru was born, the balance of the entire world changed!

On the other hand, if it was Sukuna who uttered the words "domain expansion," then fans may see him create another domain, but this time, Gojo will come to his students' rescue and save them from the King of Curses, taking the lead in the battle once again. Things are looking incredibly exciting in this fight, and JJK Chapter 261 will increase the intensity even further.

What fans need to keep in mind regarding the domain expansion is that this domain likely won't be the end of the battle. Regardless of who casts the domain, there's more to come. If it's Gojo, then Sukuna will likely lose his domain, and the fighting will continue. If it's Sukuna, then Gojo will likely be the one saving the students until the domain collapses, and then the fighting will continue. Regardless of the author's approach, this domain likely won't be the conclusion of the battle, which is the most important part fans need to keep in mind at this point.

The second round of Gojo vs Sukuna begins

Gojo Vs Sukuna may start once again in JJK 261

The second round of Gojo versus Sukuna is about to begin, and fans are incredibly excited for this battle. Of course, now, all fans of the series are wondering whether Gojo has truly returned or not. As mentioned previously, it appears that Gojo is indeed back, and until there is explicit confirmation from the author that this individual is not actually Gojo, fans should proceed to the next chapter assuming that the modern-day sorcerer is back and a battle between Gojo and Sukuna is imminent. Of course, fans would love a one-on-one battle between these two characters once again, but that won't happen. On the one hand, Yuji cannot be overshadowed in this final battle at any cost.

For this reason alone, fans will definitely see Gojo, Yuji, and Todo teaming up against Sukuna, making it a three-on-one battle. This would also imply that Gojo will return far from his best and in a weakened state, much like Sukuna is now. A three-on-one battle is the most likely outcome here, and fans will be in for a phenomenal showdown regardless of who comes out on top.

If this person isn't Gojo and is a mirage, then fans can take this to mean that Sukuna is at the end of his life and the battle is beginning to end. In this case, Sukuna won't last long, and this battle will end in several chapters at best. However, the most likely possibility is Gojo's return, as the narrator and the editor themselves have mentioned. This also makes perfect sense, given the entire setup for Gojo's return, and hopefully, fans will find the answers to their questions soon.

A break now would have been very difficult for fans to handle, but thankfully, JJK will continue for at least another week and deliver a non-stop battle in Shinjuku, along with confirmation of whether or not Gojo has truly returned. Things look more exciting than ever in JJK, and this might just be the most anticipated chapter of the entire series. Right now, all fans can do is sit back and theorize, which is one of the most fun parts of being a fan. Jujutsu Kaisenstart with.

Jujutsu Kaisen is available to read from Viz Media. The series can be read officially and for free by fans in Shonen Jump and Manga Plus application. The release date for the next chapter of JJK, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261, is set for May 26, 2024.
