Jujutsu Kaisen: The Final Fate Of Yuta Okkotsu, Explained

As a dedicated fan of Jujutsu Kaisen, I’ve been captivated by the journey of Yuta Okkotsu since day one. His growth from a timid boy to a powerful sorcerer has been nothing short of breathtaking. The latest developments with him occupying Gojo’s body have left me on the edge of my seat!


This article contains spoilers from Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 268.

In the anime series “Jujutsu Kaisen,” Yuta Okkotsu stands out as a pivotal figure who has earned the title of main character in JJK0. Throughout the story, Yuta’s significant role has captured the hearts of fans, with his contributions to various arcs of “Jujutsu Kaisen” being particularly appreciated.

In the Culling Game, Yuta demonstrated his full potential, and during the Shinjuku Showdown Arc, he raised the bar even higher by unveiling numerous new skills like domain expansion and more for the audience. While it wasn’t so much his techniques that stood out in the Shinjuku Showdown, but rather his unwavering determination. In an attempt to defeat Sukuna, Yuta took an extraordinary step by occupying Gojo’s body, a move that ultimately had disastrous consequences. Now, his future is uncertain, and fans remain in suspense over what lies ahead for him.

Yuta Okkotsu’s Great Gamble And His Survival

  • Yuta Lost To Sukuna
  • Yuta Took Over Gojo’s Body

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but marvel at Yuta Okkotsu’s pivotal role in “Jujutsu Kaisen.” From the very beginning, it was evident that his moment would come to shine in the climactic chapters. In the epic battle against Sukuna, Yuta showcased his own grit and skills, but even after being struck by a World Splitting Dismantle, he refused to be sidelined. Determined to press on, Yuta had secretly mastered a copy of Kenjaku’s technique. With Kenjaku’s powers now at his disposal, Yuta made the bold decision to seize control over Gojo’s body and bring it onto the battlefield, aiming to vanquish the King of Curses. This daring move by Yuta served as a testament to his unwavering resolve to avenge the loss of his mentor.

In an impressive display, Yuta excelled in the skirmish, not only increasing his territory but also reducing it to the scale of a tiny orb, mimicking Gojo’s technique. He even unleashed a Hollow Purple, regrettably, its potency was insufficient to inflict lethal harm on Sukuna. Yuta could have persisted in the battle and likely emerged victorious, but his Copy ability faltered.

In essence, his bet had backfired, leaving him trapped within Gojo’s form, and since then, there has been no word on Yuta’s status, leaving his future uncertain. In JJK chapter 268, fans finally received some news regarding Yuta. Given the war’s conclusion, many anticipated a revelation of his demise; however, they instead discovered that Yuta might still be rescued. The specifics of how this can occur, though, are yet to be revealed. At present, fans understand that this probably involves sophisticated magic, but the details of the process remain unclear.

Will Yuta Return To His Original Body?

Yuta Could Go To His Own Body And Gojo Could Return

In chapter 268 of Jujutsu Kaisen, there are hints that Yuta Okkotsu’s life will be spared somehow, suggesting a difficult and complex situation for him at the moment. Since he is currently at a Jujutsu facility, it seems his rescue might require combined efforts from sorcerers. The story appears to be leading towards this as a possibility, indicating that Yuta Okkotsu’s survival is all but certain. It can be confidently assumed that Yuta will endure, as the author would have already killed him off if he were to die, and his continued existence suggests he’ll survive in some form or another.

It’s unclear right now whether the character will stay in Gojo’s body permanently or manage to reclaim his own. Both scenarios are plausible, but fans have yet to find out which one unfolds in the story.

If the author prioritizes Yuta’s bond with Rika, it’s almost certain that he will bring Yuta back into his own body. This way, both Yuta and Rika can coexist, allowing Yuta to maintain his individuality while still being connected to Rika. This outcome seems ideal for wrapping up Yuta’s story, and it also paves the way for numerous intriguing developments in the future.

It’s highly improbable for Yuta to remain in Gojo’s body since Kenjaku’s method seems to have failed, implying he can no longer control Gojo’s body. At the moment, Gojo’s body offers Yuta no benefit, and if he persists, his link to Rika could be lost. Under current circumstances, this scenario appears illogical, suggesting that in some manner, Yuta is likely to revert back to his own body in JJK chapter 269.

Will Gojo Satoru Return?

Gojo’s Return Is Possible But Unlikely In Jujutsu Kaisen

Yuta’s comeback is closely tied to Gojo Satoru’s reappearance for the reason that Yuta has taken over Gojo’s physical form while his own remains lifeless. This connection arises because Yuta can transfer his consciousness between bodies without using the brain-hopping technique, and this implies that Gojo might be able to do the same. Since Gojo’s body was sliced in half, fans understood that it couldn’t be fully healed. But since Yuta moved into his body, which was then stitched back together, fans realized that Gojo could potentially employ a reversed cursed technique.

In simpler terms, Yuta utilized his powers to mend all his wounds and prepare Gojo for battle resumption at the same time. This implies that Yuta might come back too, since he’s about to exit Gojo’s body. The possibility of his return can be understood within the context of souls in Jujutsu Kaisen, a series where it’s suggested that bodies and souls could be one and the same. Fans recognize this connection, and if it’s true, then some part of Gojo should still reside within Yuta’s body, ready to engage in combat again. Once Yuta departs from Gojo’s body, there’s a chance that Gojo’s soul could regain control, ultimately leading to the return of the strongest modern sorcerer alive. Additionally, Yuta would continue his role as Gojo’s student and potential successor.

In just two weeks’ time, all enthusiasts can look forward to unveiling further details about the Yuta and Gojo case in Jujutsu Kaisen.

You can find the popular manga series “Jujutsu Kaisen” through Viz Media. Officially and for free, fans can read it on both the Shonen Jump and Manga Plus app. The next chapter of JJK, chapter 268, is scheduled to be released on September 1, 2024.
