Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 is set to be released on Sunday, May 26, 2024. In what may very well be the last arc of the series, the Shinjuku Showdown arc, Yuji Itadori seemingly finally has an advantage over Sukuna thanks to the arrival of Aoi Todo and his upgraded Boogie Woogie cursed technique. The two-versus-one fight of Yuji and Todo against Sukuna took up the entirety of the chapter, and as thrilling as that was, it’s really the shocking cliffhanger that got fans excited for the next chapter.

Chapter 260 of Jujutsu Kaisen ended with the tease that Satoru Gojo, who was originally thought dead after Sukuna cut him in half, may actually still be alive. With ominous dialogue that neither confirms nor denies the return of the strongest, the speculation still has fans desperate for the next chapter to confirm whether or not Gojo is back to settle the score against the King of Curses.
