Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 21 Preview: The New Toji Fushiguro Awakens

by

Last week’s chapter of Jujutsu Kaisen was a huge cliffhanger, and all fans are eagerly awaiting chapter 21. It could be the most thrilling chapter yet in this new continuation of the manga by Gege Akutami. The former main character, Yuji Itadori, has returned and unexpectedly revealed his abilities.

The current battles in Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo are moving quickly and are incredibly intense. Dabura is constantly adapting during his fight with Mahoraga, and Tsurugi has finally begun to unlock his full potential against Maru. Chapter 21 promises to be thrilling, as the author, Gege, seems set to conclude at least one of these major fights happening in Tokyo. Given Tsurugi’s recent power boost, it’s likely that Chapter 21 will show him reaching a new level of strength.

Chapter 21 of JJK Modulo will likely showcase a lot more of Tsurugi Okkotsu. As fans have seen, his fusion with Rika allowed him to handle Maru’s awakened abilities with ease. He demonstrated a power level capable of matching Yuji’s Dismantle, and the next chapter will probably explore this further, but in a new direction.

Thank you, Rika! Good luck! — Tsurugi Okkotsu after unfusing with Rika

At the end of the last chapter, Rika separated from Tsurugi Okkotsu, but she left him with a significant benefit: the complete activation of his Heavenly Restriction. As many fans know, Tsurugi was born with cursed energy within him, which previously prevented him from fully utilizing his potential, similar to how Maki Zenin was limited. Maki overcame this by the death of her twin sister Mai and the removal of her cursed energy. However, Tsurugi didn’t have a twin to balance things out, and the world didn’t see him and Yuka as a single being. That’s where Rika’s help became crucial.

In the previous chapter, Rika separated from Tsurugi, and in the process, absorbed the last of the cursed energy he had inside him. This caused Tsurugi’s cursed energy to rapidly decrease until it disappeared completely. As a result, Tsurugi Okkotsu fully awakened as a Heavenly Restricted human, now as powerful as Maki Zenin and Toji Fushiguro.

Chapter 21 of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo will likely conclude the intense fight between Maru and Tsurugi. With Tsurugi now fully awakened and significantly faster, he’s expected to overpower Maru. He’s also obtained the Split Soul Katana, which allows him to bypass physical defenses and directly attack Maru’s soul, making every hit potentially fatal. This means Tsurugi should be able to defeat his old friend relatively quickly. Readers are eagerly anticipating the next chapter to see Tsurugi’s dramatically increased power in action.

Come, Tsurugi. It’s Time we end this once and for all! — Maru to Tsurugi

Maki’s awakening resulted in the complete destruction of the Zenin Clan, and the author, Gege, really emphasized just how powerful she is. Now, it seems Gege might be setting up a similar outcome for Tsurugi Okkotsu. He’s likely to catch Maru off guard and finish the fight with a devastating attack in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 21.

Chapter 21 of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo will likely center on the fight between Tsurugi and Maru, but the showdown between Dabura and Mahoraga remains the biggest highlight. Dabura recently achieved something incredible by reversing his cursed energy and channeling it into his innate technique, creating what’s being called Cursed Technique reversal. He essentially turned Light into Darkness, and this new ability seems extremely powerful. We saw in the last chapter that when Dabura created a sphere of darkness, everything around him started to be drawn towards it, hinting that it possesses a significant gravitational force.

Tell me, what do you call this type of technique on earth? — Dabura to Mahoraga

Dabura is strategizing a finishing move against Mahoraga, and the next chapter will likely reveal his plan. He still has a chance to win this fight. In addition to already mastering Cursed Technique Reversal, Dabura may be able to combine Light and Darkness, similar to Gojo, creating a powerful new technique. This could be his ultimate move, potentially allowing him to defeat Mahoraga, just like Gojo did in Shinjuku.

It’s possible chapter 21 of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo won’t show everything at once, and some of these events might unfold over several chapters. Regardless, Mahoraga seems likely to lose, and Dabura is positioned to become the new strongest character. This victory introduces a new challenge, specifically concerning Yuka Okkotsu.

Now that Mahoraga is sure to lose, Yuka’s future is unknown. As fans will recall, Yuka is currently in a kind of death-like sleep, linked to Mahoraga’s shadow. If Mahoraga is defeated, it’s unclear what will happen to her. She might reappear from the shadows and revive, or she could be trapped there permanently, similar to how Megumi was stuck for a long time.

Yuka is in a life-or-death situation, and will likely need help from someone like Yuji Itadori. Even if she survives, things could get much worse after Mahoraga is defeated. In fact, this crisis would likely draw Yuji into a final, decisive battle against Dabura Karaba, who has become the strongest sorcerer in Jujutsu Kaisen.

Chapter 21 of JJK Modulo has the potential to build towards an epic confrontation, and fans are eagerly anticipating what happens next with Yuji Itadori, Yuka Okotsu, Tsurugi Okotsu, and the story’s newest villain, the fascinating Dabura Karaba. Gege has done an excellent job with JJK Modulo so far, and hopefully, the series will continue beyond the originally planned three volumes.

The next chapter of Jujutsu Kaisen, chapter 21, will be available on February 8, 2026. It will be released at midnight in Japan (11:00 AM Eastern Time, 8:00 AM Pacific Time). You can read it for free on Manga Plus and the Shonen Jump app.
