This article contains spoilers from Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 269.
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 270 is just around the corner, and fans are well aware of the fact that the manga is just two chapters away from wrapping up. Last week’s chapter was on the tamer’s side, and it certainly didn’t have as many exciting things that fans would have liked. Of course, the biggest thing that fans expected the previous week’s chapter to tackle was Yuta’s fate, and it certainly delivered upon that.
Beyond that, however, there are many things that still remain unresolved in the story, and fans absolutely cannot wait for the remaining plot points to be addressed, which is why JJK chapter 270 is going to be a massive one in the story moving forward.
Updated by Rei Penber on September 18, 2024: Jujutsu Kaisen is ending soon, and with that, Jujutsu Kaisen 270 will dump the much-needed information on fans before the series concludes for good. Gege might perhaps finally confirm once and for all the fate of beloved character Satoru Gojo.
Gojo’s Survival Or Death Finally Confirmed
- Gojo Died In The Fight Against Sukuna
- There Might Be Hope For Gojo’s Return
JJK chapter 270 absolutely has to address the case of Gojo Satoru. Fans know for a fact that Gojo ended up dying in the battle against the King of Curses, Sukuna, and he was chopped in half. In fact, after he was chopped up, Gojo marked the place with his friends in a space between life and death, where he contemplated whether to go north or south. Of course, fans will be inclined to believe that Gojo is dead. However, the fact is that there are many individuals in JJK who suffered from the same attack as Gojo and managed to survive. For instance, Higuruma is one such character who was hit by the world splitting dismantle and yet in this chapter, he was clearly seen alive.
Similarly, Yuta survived the same attack as well. Clearly, when these characters end up surviving, one absolutely has to go over the case of Gojo as well. Gojo is the strongest Sorcerer Sorcerer right now, and if lower sorcerers can accomplish that, then Gojo should be able to do it as well. Above all, what gives fans hope the most is the fact that Yuta, after being chalked up in pieces, had his brain removed from his body, moved to a different body, and then reattached in his own body once again. Yet, he managed to survive.
Rika was using reverse cursed technique to repair and sustain my body – Yuta
Goju’s body is stitched up, just like that of Yuta, and Yuta even utilized reverse cursed technique inside. It is entirely possible that Gojo will have returned from the dead and hopefully, he will do so in quite some style in the upcoming chapters. Of course, then again, nobody truly knows what the author intends, and it is entirely possible that he wants Gojo to stay dead forever. If that is the case, fans would at least hope that JJK chapter 270 sees a proper confirmation on the subject, such as having a grave built for Gojo, or something along the lines.
A Hint At A Sequel?
Jujutsu Kaisen Has A Lot Of Potential For Part 2
JJK chapter 270 is the penultimate chapter of the series, and fans know for a fact that there is more that the story has to offer. Quite a lot of the plot points in JJK were absolutely rushed, and it would have been much better if the story got some more time to develop further. It is unfortunate that JJK is ending the way it is, and everything about it, starting from the war, all the way to character arcs, had to be rushed. This was due to a plethora of reasons, one of the biggest of which was Gege’s deteriorating health. However, while fans do understand his troubles, they also know that the story deserves better, which is why many fans hope that after a while, Gege attempts to come back to JJK with the sequel series, and continue the story even further.
This is truer now than ever before, especially after seeing new lore being dropped about Tengen and the big families in the previous chapter of the manga. Clearly, there is a lot that is still unexplained in the series, and fans are absolutely desperate to see these plot points being addressed. Furthermore, there is more than enough content in JJK left to be explored. Many characters still need some progression, and the premise of the story is rich enough for the fans to want more of.
Hopefully, fans will find out soon if JJK is ever going to continue, and, taking into consideration what has been set up already, the chances for that happening are truly high.
Perhaps, JJK chapter 270 will drop another hint about the sequel series, which is something that fans would absolutely love.
Three Big Families Lore
Kusakabe Reveals New Information As He Steps Up
Much to the surprise of the fans, JJK’s previous chapter focused on the three big families, to a certain extent. This was entertaining to these three clans, and hopefully, fans will find out more context as to what is being achieved here in the story.
What’s more important than money can’t be protected without money. – Mei Mei
The most important takeaway from this is that Mei Mei knows some secrets about the Big Three clans and, at the same time, knows how to get to their deepest secrets. That is precisely why Mei Mei is going to be directly involved in the plot moving forward as well.
New Sorcerer Ranks Could Be Bestowed Upon Yuji And Others
Yuji Deserves To Be A Special Grade Sorcerer
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 270 is most likely also going to focus on the growth of the sorcerers in Japan. Fans know that the order of the sorcerers has taken a significant hit after the events of Shinjuku Showdown. Many strong characters have already died, and other weaker characters have risen dramatically in terms of strength. It is clear for the fans to see that new sorcerer ranks need to be assigned. Right now, the only Special Grade Sorcerer alive is Yuta, but other sorcerers, such as Yuji, could progress and reach this rank as well, which is something that all fans would love to see.
Similarly, the likes of Megumi, Nobara, and even some characters such as Todo, deserve a boost in rank. There is also the case of Higuruma, who has now managed to survive but doesn’t know what to do. Many characters need proper conclusions, but the story arcs in JJK chapter 270 must do just that.
Yuji Itadori deserves the boost in terms of rank the most after all, as he is the one who took down Sukuna, and, at the same time, he is also the protagonist of the series. Depending on how Yuji’s character is handled in the upcoming chapter of the manga, fans will get an idea of what the author intends to do with those who remain alive.
Clearly, there are many interesting plot points for JJK chapter 270 to tackle, and fans can only hope that the upcoming chapter of the manga will be absolutely massive in terms of scale, reveal some deep secrets, and give a proper conclusion to the vast majority of the characters within the series.
Jujutsu Kaisen is available to read via Viz Media. The series can be read by the fans officially and for free on the Shonen Jump and the Manga Plus app. The release date for the next chapter of JJK, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 270, is set to be September 22, 2024.
