Gege Akutami revealed the art of Gojo Satoru on the back cover of Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 26, which has now made all the fans debate whether Gojo is dead or is making a comeback in the new volume.
Jujutsu Kaisen has always been known for its unpredictable plots and Gojo’s death is the biggest Shocking news and mystery in JJK that’s been unsolved. JJK fans were so shocked when they heard the news of their favorite character’s death which caused a huge uproar in the fandom. But now we can hope, even if it’s just a theory but maybe we can expect to see his comeback in the next volume.
Jujutsu Kaisen is a popular Japanese manga series written and Illustrated by Gege Akutami. 25 volumes of Jujutsu Kaisen are already out, Volume 26 is still in progress, and now fans are debating whether Gojo is alive or not as Gege revealed his new Gojo Satoru art for the back cover of Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 26. In this cover, Gojo appears to be in shock or awakened but we still aren’t sure if this is his last moment or his comeback in the new volume.
What happened in Chapter 236 of Jujutsu Kaisen?
So, here’s a quick summary of what happened in the 236 chapter and how Gojo is said to be dead. After the most epic battle between Sukuna and Gojo, Gojo died because Sukuna used Mahoraga’s adaptation as a blueprint to copy an attack that slashed Gojo in half. Although the manga didn’t cover what happened to his body after his death, that’s why fans are still hoping that he would return.
Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 26 Fan’s Speculations
While some fans are predicting that he’s already dead and isn’t coming back again, some Die-hard fans are still hoping that he is alive in the next volume after seeing this cover on Twitter. At the same time, some believe that Gojo isn’t going to come back and Gege is just playing with Fan’s feelings.
Many users commented on this post and showed different opinions regarding this cover:
A Twitter user commented “I think we could finally see Gojo’s POV…which has not been shown in the manga…(before Gojo’s death)” which is true because we haven’t seen the Gojo POV in the manga but here, we’re talking about Gege Akutami so we can’t predict anything as he’s known for his unpredictable plots and even gets hate for it.
Hope it’s the same case and Gojo isn’t death is what fans are also hoping but the story can be devastating as we didn’t predict Gojo’s Death in the first place.
“If it was him reacting to being slashed, his eyes wouldn’t have shined like that. That’s him waking up!!!” another X user says.
“A third secret option: Gege is giving you false hope and loves the taste of your tears,” and someone else agreed with this comment.
Whether Gojo will return in the next volume or not, the next volume is going to be fire and most anticipated by the fans and if Gojo does comebacks in the next volume, then maybe we expect a rematch between Sukuna and Gojo Satoru.
