Gojo Satoru has become the superstar of the incredibly popular anime/manga series Jujutsu Kaisen. Fans love him and he’s undoubtedly the main reason why the show has blown up so massively.
The manga has been an absolute thrill ride for fans these past few weeks. The Shinjuku Showdown arc has been mind-blowing, and the climax of this arc in Volume 26 delivers the long-awaited, massively hyped battle between Gojo and Sukuna that fans have been dying to see since the very start.
After building up the anticipation for so long, creator Gege Akutami finally pulling the trigger on this epic clash was immensely satisfying for readers.
However, the outcome left many fans in shock. Against all expectations, the almighty Gojo actually ends up losing his life in this incredible fight, devastating his countless diehard fans.
Jujutsu Kaisen‘s Latest Volume Holds Some Clues To Gojo’s Return
Jujutsu Kaisen volume 26 has finally dropped, and as expected with Gege Akutami, this volume has added a lot of amazing stuff for the fans.

The first thing that caught fan’s attention was Gojo’s cover art. However, this was not something out of the blue, because the volume features Gojo’s last big fight in the story before he dies against King of the Curses.
However, the volume also has some interesting details about a particular scene. For instance, Gege Akutami portrays an illustrated Gojo’s brain bleeding out, after being overused.
Just like that, there was one more illustration of Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen volume 26. This time we see Gojo opening his right eye wide open, while also emitting some rays of light. It shows that Gojo knows he is lying on the floor, and that is what makes this panel a whole lot more interesting,
When this particular panel of the latest volume aligns with the panel of Gojo’s death, it makes perfect sense and feels like Gojo is waking up after being hit by a powerful attack.
As fans know, Gojo was transported to Shoko’s location, so it’s entirely possible that he could be revived and open his eyes once more, just like the volume artwork suggests.
However, this artwork alone would not be enough for speculating about Gojo’s grand return to the story.
Gege Akutami wouldn’t rely solely on a single illustration to hint at such a major plot development. There must be other clues or potential storylines that could cover the way for Gojo’s eventual rejoining of the intense battle in Shinjuku.
Fans are undoubtedly analyzing every detail, looking for any possible narrative threads that could facilitate Gojo’s comeback.
After all, his presence and involvement in the Shinjuku Showdown arc have been highly anticipated since the beginning of the series.
With Gege Akutami’s masterful storytelling, there’s no telling what surprises or twists may await readers as Gojo’s fate continues to be revealed.
