This article contains spoilers from Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo.

The Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo arc is moving very quickly, and fans are loving how the story is developing with each new chapter. So far, it’s been a thrilling addition to the series, expanding on the established lore and showcasing the author’s impressive world-building skills. The arc also delivers the exciting fights fans expect from Gege Akutami’s work. One thing fans have been anticipating is major character deaths, as Akutami is known for writing darker stories with significant losses.

Fans of Jujutsu Kaisen know that any character, even main ones, could die at any time, which creates a lot of tension. Following the deaths of Gojo Satoru and Choso, viewers anticipated another significant loss in the Modulo arc. Chapter 9 of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo delivered just that, confirming the death of Dura, a highly respected figure among the Rumelians. Dura tragically died while trying to bridge the gap between different groups and bring people together, leaving fans heartbroken.

Dura Was Like A Father To Cross And Maru

  • Dura was JJK Modulo’s most influential character
  • Dura shaped Maru and Cross’s Ideology

The anime Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo recently showed its first truly heartbreaking death, which happened during a flashback episode. This flashback introduced Dura, a key character who was like a guardian to Maru and Cross. Dura lived in a time of conflict and aimed to build bridges with those around him, hoping to foster peace and understanding.

Real peace and getting along with each other starts with having love and compassion for everyone. — Dura, Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo

Despite his noble intentions, Dura tragically fell victim to the very hatred that plagued his world. His death in the flashback was a major shock, deeply impacting Maru and Cross. In fact, Dura’s wish for them to find a peaceful place to live – a place built on love and understanding – is why Maru and Cross traveled to Earth in the first place. Ultimately, Dura’s desire sets the entire plot of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo in motion, making him a pivotal and important character.

Yuji’s Death Is Being Foreshadowed

Dura isn’t the only character Gege Akutami has killed off in Jujutsu Kaisen, and fans have come to expect shocking and heartbreaking moments. Akutami intentionally keeps readers on edge, making them worry about the fate of their favorite characters. This sense that anyone could die at any time is a key part of what makes Jujutsu Kaisen so captivating.

You deliberately pulled your punches, didn’t you? You could have really crushed him, but you didn’t. That’s disappointing and frankly, embarrassing. — Cross to Dabura, JJK Modulo

Currently, Dura is the only character who has died in the Modulo arc, but another death is likely. The story has hinted that Yuji Itadori will return, but also that his death is coming. Fans may recall that Yuji’s continued existence was confirmed when Mahito revealed he hadn’t encountered him yet. This suggests Yuji and Mahito will meet during the Modulo arc, which can only happen after Yuji dies.
