With Yuji reaching the pinnacle of Jujutsu sorcery, our beloved protagonist catches Sukuna and fans off-guard by unleashing his Domain Expansion, highlighting Itadori’s significant character development. Gege Akutami even gave fans a little hope for Megumi Fushiguro’s survival after making the Ten Shadows Technique user suffer from immense trauma.
Besides bringing up the truth about Sukuna’s last finger, Gege Akutami left the entire JJK fandom in shock by Nobara’s surprising reappearance in the recent chapter. With the recent developments in Chapter 267, Sukuna’s defeat seems more certain than ever as the iconic Jujutsu High School trio reunites for the last time.
Nobara Kugisaki’s Shocking Return in Jujutsu Kaisen Leaves the Anime Community Speechless
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 left several fans emotionally scarred by the tragic demise of two beloved characters, Nanami and Nobara. Nobara Kugisaki instantly became a crowd favorite thanks to her cocky and humor-filled personality traits. She was first introduced in Season 1 as a first-year student at Tokyo Jujutsu High alongside, Yuji and Megumi.
Back in JJK Season 2, it seemed Nobara lost her life to Mahito in front of Yuji Itadori, leaving our beloved protagonist traumatized. Interestingly, Gege Akutami remained secretive about Nobara’s existence throughout their narrative, leaving fans optimistic about her survival. Chapter 267 features Nobara’s return, taking the entire internet by storm and leaving several fans in shock.
In JJK‘s last chapter, Gege foreshadowed the Jujutsu sorcerer’s secret plan to take down the King of Curses with Nobara’s assistance. JJK Chapter 266 unfolds the secret location of Sukuna’s last finger and highlights Nobara playing a pivotal role in Sukuna’s execution.
With the release of JJK Chapter 267, Gege has confirmed the rumors of Nobara’s survival to be true. Moreover, our beloved female character launched a surprise attack on Sukuna thanks to her signature Resonance Curse Technique. The mangaka first hinted at Nobara’s immense strength back in Season 2 when her attacks significantly damaged Mahito’s body and soul.
Nobara’s surprise attack on the King of Curses catches Sukuna off-guard and makes Yuji aware of her friend’s survival after a long silence spanning 100 chapters. Jujutsu Kaisen‘s manga is nearing its conclusion and with recent revelations, the return of Megumi and Nobara seems more promising than ever.
Nobara’s Long-Awaited Return Sparks Mixed Reactions in the Jujutsu Kaisen Fandom
Nobara’s return may have surprised many, but Gege Akutami foreshadowed this numerous times, and even the Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade theme song’s official music video (Avant) featured several references. Although Nobara’s reappearance received a positive reaction, many fans remain underwhelmed by the revelation of her survival.
Gege Akutami introduced many new faces to Jujutsu Kaisen during the Culling Game Arc, taking away the spotlight from the most Season 1 iconic characters. Regardless, Nobara will play a pivotal role in ending the bloodshed by assisting Yuji in dealing a final blow to Sukuna in his domain.
Besides Nobara, the video also foreshadows the return of more iconic characters such as Gojo and Yuta, leaving fans in tears of excitement. As Nobara and Megumi’s return seems highly likely, Gege might be planning to end Jujutsu Kaisen with the iconic JJK trio’s reunion.
Since Yuji desired to die surrounded by his loved ones, we might see the return of iconic characters such as Nobara, Megumi, and even Gojo in exchange for Yuji Itadori’s life.
