The great battle in the demon-infested and uninhabited land of Shinjuku continues its course and now, that Todo has joined Yuji Itadori to face the ‘king of curses’ Sukuna, help has arrived. Was it Satoru Gojo? Here we tell you everything that happened in the chapter 261 of the “Jujutsu Kaisen” manga!
Chapter 261 of “Jujutsu Kaisen”
The chapter begins with Yuji deciding that he will crush Sukuna’s heart.
As soon as Sukuna sings ‘Domain Expansion’, he sees Gojo standing and in disbelief, Sukuna wonders if it’s really him, but rejects that thought as he says it’s impossible.
Sukuna sees him and realizes who he is and punches Itadori while saying “I apologize for underestimating you! Is incredible! I didn’t know what you were capable of, Yuta Okkotsu!”, while Gojo opens his eyes.
The one in Satoru Gojo’s body is confirmed to be YUTA OKKOTSU using the Cursed Kenjaku Technique!
We have Flashback. Yuta tells Rika to eat Kenjaku and copy his TM to switch bodies. Maki objects but Hakari says yes on the condition that she uses him as a last resort. I mean, if everyone dies or is about to.
- Kusakabe: Can’t we just copy the Mukagen from Gojo’s body?
- Shoko: You can’t use his unlimited cursed technique without the six eyes.
- Kusakabe: Then just copy the six eyes….
- Shoko: The six eyes are part of his physical body, it’s not a CT scan, so you can’t copy it.
Maki asks the question: Since Yuta can ‘copy’ the cursed technique for only 5 minutes…what would happen next? Yuta responds by saying that he doesn’t know what would happen…
Mei Mei explains the pros and cons of Yuta copying Kenjaku’s cursed technique: “There is a possibility that after changing bodies, Yuta will lose his technique and have to live forever in Satoru Gojo’s body.”
If Kenjaku’s cursed technique is of a constant or intermittent type, he will be unable to maintain either his physical body or his soul and will die.
If the cursed technique operates intermittently, it will not die immediately, but it will over time.
If the cursed technique is single-use, you will be able to use it without limits even after 5 minutes.
Mei: After completing the body change, it is also possible that Okkotsu’s cursed technique will be discarded and he will live in Gojo-kun’s body from now on.

Kusakabe says it’s a good plan but it’s just not “humane”
Yuta: What do you mean by “human”? We are about to fight the strongest Jujutsu Sorcerer in history. “If we can win by simply wasting our humanity, we shouldn’t even argue about this,” Okkotsu continues.
Yuta asks if everyone is afraid of turning into some kind of “monster” to fight Sukuna. Maki yells at Yuta saying that “everyone is worried about him.”
Scene change, Yuta tells Gojo that he will take his body if he dies. Gojo says he’s fine with that. He says that he has no intention of losing and doesn’t care what happens to his dead body.
Yuta: Oh, by the way, they told me that you were a descendant of the Fujiwara blood. Didn’t Gojo-sensei say that you were a descendant of the “Sugawara” blood?”
Gojo: It’s Sugawara, you and I are distant relatives. But weren’t the “Sugawara” and the “Fujiwara” on bad terms?
Yuta: So I guess Uro-san had a misunderstanding then…
Gojo: Well, we might both be right.
Gojo says that Yuta could have been born in better circumstances than him. Then Gojo says that if Yuta can’t use that advantage, he’s totally stupid. Gojo: Let’s start with your careless cursed energy. I’ve always told you to be careful with that.
Gojo then asks his students to leave because he doesn’t want them to see a bloody side, especially since he doesn’t know that what he’s about to do is right.
Gojo once again tells his students to go back but they refute him. Yuta tells Gojo not to try to become a monster himself again. Gojo: That’s something I can’t. At that moment I was left behind. I have to reach it (Remembering Geto).
Mei Mei puts Amai (Itadori’s friend) in the team’s medical corps with Nitta as support, asking him to supply sugar to the brain using his CT scan.
The scene changes again. Yuta is cut in half due to Sukuna’s WCS and has been rushed to the medical room. Arata has used CT to prevent Yuta’s injuries from getting worse, so it may be too late.
Yuta says he’s conscious thanks to Rika but he’s starting to reach his limit. Shoko tells Yuta that she has already sewn Gojo’s corpse, so once Yuta changes, he has to activate RCT to his maximum capacity and complete the body.
We return to the present. Sukuna and Yuta in Gojo’s body, both open their domain. The narrator says that Gojo had already shown the solution to Sukuna’s Open Barrier Mastery in their fight.
The chapter ends with Sukuna using Malevolent Shrine and Yuta using Gojo’s Unlimited Void.
