Summary

It ’s not a stretch to say thatJujutsu KaisenwasSatoru Gojo ’s World , and everyone else just lived in it . He dominated the space even though he was not actually present for the absolute majority of the story . Gojo ’s popularity even outgrew the serial . Accordingly , it ’s also no surprise that when he was kill by Ryomen Sukuna , the manga universe shuddered .

When a character of Gojo ’s status dies , the immediate buff reaction is usually a hope or outlook that the fiber will render at some point in the story ’s future . There ’s plenty of precedent for fans who consider in this idea . The manga space is filled with the unexpected regaining of antecedently utter characters . This hope / expectation of a grapheme ’s return is based on a act of reason , admit the emotional fond regard that fans developed for the character , as well as the story shock that the graphic symbol ’s death has on the plot .

In this case , sinceJujutsu Kaisen ’s fandom loves Gojo so deeply , there ’s always been Leslie Townes Hope for his return .

Is Gojo’s Return Really Necessary?

Jujutsu Kaisen’s Story Has Moved On After Gojo

While the thoughtful resurrection of a deceased character - such as one that the story carefully builds up or where the story provides a plausible account of why it would go on - can be narrative Au , resurrections that are totally out of the gloomy spite the storymore often than they help it .

Such is the grammatical case with the " hinted at " return of Satoru Gojo inJujutsu KaisenChapter # 260 . If he does indeed make a return , it lessens the tale that has gone on since his death . If he actually is not drained , then it ’s a gag that adds nothing to the story but rather play on fans ' smell .

Jujutsu Kaisen Might Be Better Without Gojo

Gojo’s Return Could Steal the Spotlight from the True Protagonist, Yuji

One of the telltale house that a long - running , popular manga has lead off the decline in terms of the quality of its narrative is the use of outlandish plot twists that make no sense to the fanbase . ForJujutsu Kaisen , Gojo ’s potential appearance at the end ofJujutsu KaisenChapter # 260 is precisely the form of unexpected and unexplained twisting that powerfully intimate the series should end sooner rather than later to keep its character from declining .

One element ofthe bizarreness of Gojo ’s return is that it is unambiguously unneeded . While his end originally trigger off awe that the creation was unprotected without Gojo , it has forced others to tread up - and they ’ve responded to that challenge amazingly well . It ’s unlikely that the harmony of purpose that the jujitsu community is now experiencing would have been potential without Gojo ’s death . His return , if that is in reality what it is , destroy that development . It obliteratesthe incredible development Yuji had for fight Sukuna .

Second , bringing Gojo back runs counter to creator Gege Akutami ’s history of lack of fan service . The resurrection ofGojowould be one of the biggest wins for fan military service in recent memory . However , throughout the saga , Gege has shown little interest group in catering to the impulse ofJujutsu Kaisenfans . Indeed , he ’s been majestic to do the opposite any time he could . While creators can change , such a major reversal from Akutami does n’t make sense , especially considering thatJujutsu Kaisenis set to end sooner rather than later .
