Chapter 248 of Jujutsu Kaisen has managed to pacify the doubts of many fans who were eagerly awaiting any kind of clue about the return of Gojo Satoru. Ultimately, all the pieces for the six-eye user’s revival are now in place and we might be able to witness the conclusive round between Gojo and Sukuna.
The demise of Gojo Satoru was an astonishing turn of events that occurred in chapter 236, and following his death, the fans got to work putting together numerous theories on how the six-eye user would eventually make a return to the story. The latest chapter managed to set the stage for the return of Gojo, whose body is now with Shoko.
However, with the constraints of the reversed curse technique, which yields less than 50% precision when done on someone else, one other character needs to assist Shoko. Utahime, with her ability to buff others, will be needed to revive Gojo Satoru.
To revive Gojo Satoru, Shoko and Utahime need to work together
Chapter 248 of Gege Akutami’s magnum opus revealed many intrusive details while simultaneously answering numerous questions about what’s happening to the injured or deceased characters while the battle rages on.
It was depicted that Ui Ui, using his teleportation technique, sent the bodies of both the wounded characters as well as the deceased to Shoko Ieiri, the primary doctor of Tokyo Jujutsu High.
Since the get-go, Shoko Ieiri has been a character who never played a crucial role in the story but now everything might change as she now has the body of Gojo Satoru.
Shoko is skilled in the reversed curse technique, which only a handful of characters can use and her ability to use it on others makes her a very critical asset.
Many fans believe that Shoko is trying to bring Gojo back to life, but there is a major implication and that is the restriction of the usage and accuracy of RCT when applied to others besides oneself.
With the accuracy dropping below 50% when used on someone else, one other character is necessary during this important stage, and that is none other than semi-grade-1 sorcerer Utahime Iori.
Endowed with the ability to enhance the powers of others, Utahime uses a natural method called Solo Forbidden Area, which boosts anyone within a premise.
The effectiveness of this technique can sour up to 120% if it is incorporated with hand signs, dance, music, and incantations.
With Utahime boosting Shoko’s RCT up to 120%, Gojo Satoru could potentially be revived and brought back to the story.
What events unfolded in Chapter 248 of Jujutsu Kaisen?
Chapter 248 was the latest addition to the story, laying the groundwork for what’s to come next for the Jujutsu sorcerers, who are presently engaged in combat with Ryomen Sukuna.
As anticipated, the executioner’s sword failed to inflict any fatal damage on Sukuna, who is making light work of every character involved.
The immovable and dominating human spirit of Yuji, who now can use RCT, seems to have infuriated Sukuna, who currently desires to destroy it with all his might.
With the lights deeming out for the sorcerers as Sukuna dog-walks the strongest Jujutsu sorcerers such as Gojo and Kashimo, and the latest entry being Higuruma, the last hope is none other than Yuta, who makes a breath-taking appearance.
In the upcoming chapter, the impending clash between the King of Curses, Ryomen Sukuna, and the Queen of Curses, Rika, will begin.
