Should Gojo Return? Lets Talk About It | JJK 260 Discussion 

i think the direction its going is gojo haunting sukuna while he’s losing i can see it not getting mentioned and you see gojo a few more times during the fight as it goes on maybe leading to ghost gojo and sukuna having a conversation that might lead to a heian era flashback probably for the best since everyones getting so tired from the fight a heian flashback can just give it space to take everything in and prepare for when it cuts back to the present with sukuna body swapping with uraume or starting the merger or whatever else

Honestly Gojo's supposed conclusion has some *underwhelming* aspects for me... I think if he had a stronger conclusion more people could make peace with his death (like Choso more recently), but there some aspects where it feels like it needed more to it. Gojo died selfishly according to Nanami's words as a jujutsu pervert. Mentioning the students wasn't even much a part of his conclusion in ch 236 as it was mainly focused on Sukuna and teaching him love (when his character was more connected to the students prior). There was never Gojo defining who he was for himself: "Are you the strongest because you're Satoru Gojo or are you Satoru Gojo because you're the strongest?" He was forcibly removed his title of strongest, but never defined what he is for himself. I feel like there's room to add more to his conclusion in some way. I could potentially see Gojo in a Toji situation where he comes back temporarily in some form (maybe also at a cost of less power) to better round out his character arc. Toji died to Gojo because of his ego to defeat him. Then he had a better had a conclusion with facing Megumi after coming back temporarily and then he died to protect Megumi. Gojo also wore the Toji outfit with his death to Sukuna. Gojo still has death of his ego and could have journey of enlightenment full circle as to fit his Buddha character motif. Gojo if he did come back I imagine would only be a supporting role (maybe aid with the merger as the six eyes user tied to Tengen by fate). Yuji still mainly to deal with Sukuna as he only as the power to save Megumi with his soul abilities. Gojo still died as the strongest, but briefly back as Satoru Gojo. Comes back unselfishly to contrast his death and when he's done he completely dies after doing a last unselfish act. There's still the consequences of him dying apply in the end, so that isn't fully taken away and ch 236 wasn't his definitive end, but merely a crucial transition point needed to reach his full enlightenment before complete death. That's just my perspective on it.

Yeah, I can see this being a misdirect. Sukuna is currently trying to activate Domain Expansion. Perhaps this is just a callback to when he and Gojo were playing chicken with RCT and restoring their techniques while frying their brains. Perhaps Sukunas technique is finally fried, and "the ghost" is Sukuna realizing that gojo played the long game, in order to screw him over horribly. Maybe Gojo knew all along he would lose the battle, but win the war, and thus claim final victory over Sukuna. Id really like that.

Bro you hit every option! Well done🤘🏾✊🏾 I’m not excited for him to come back but I agree. How he does it will probably make or break it.

I can see narrative reasons for him coming back (finally being able to fight alongside his students). I can see narrative reasons for him not coming back (students carrying the torch). We just have to see which direction Gege takes it. Also an explanation to how he’s back if he’s back

It's obviously the 'Groomed One' Uiui who switched his eyes with Six Eyes using his ability.

Every time I look at the picture of gojo and you look at that other eye.. it looks more and more like it's blacked out or just gone completely

To me what’s interesting is that in the panel where Gojo got sliced in half he still had both eyes. In the panel for ch 260 where gojo appears (or whoever it is) it’s clear that one eye is missing.

There’s no mistaking those eyes the departed spirit of “the strongest” was a version of a man that he buried with he’s own hands

This deserves way more than 400 sum views in an hour.

Honestly after having Gojo dead for so long and there being SO many logical ways for him to come back ….if it is him, and he’s nerfed down to like Choso levels then honestly….i don’t particularly care I’d prefer him stay dead but like…..him coming back does make sense

I feel like if Gojo is alive bro is probably going say “Waassup!” to everyone and just spectate Yuji and Todo and jump in for insurance.

I'm just praying we cut to the Uraume VS Hikari fight or have a heian era flashback for a chapter or two. I wanna see the fandom tweaking and frothing at the mouth. It would make me happy :)

Ive said this a few times on a couple different chapter's, but the word "ghost" was noted as the same word Sukuna called Kashimo in 237, where Kashimo was very much alive. Not saying its hard proof hes alive, but it having been used for a living being makes me think hes back

I hope we don’t get some sasuke behavior out of megumi since he has been depressed for the longest.

gojo being brought back in a way where he can genuinely connect and fight alongside his students equally would be great. perhaps gojo nerfing himself through loss of one of his six eyes would bring him down to his students’ level, so that he no longer needs to be burdened by his title of the strongest. or maybe giving up his limitless barrier permanently in a binding vow would work, as the thematic significance with that aspect of the limitless technique is that it symbolizes his total isolation from everyone else, and losing it would allow him to truly connect with people, no longer being alone. if done in a way similar to that, i think it could add to gojos character arc rather than destroy what 236 gave us.

Gojo would need to sacrifice something massive, like making it possible for the six eyes and unlimited void to be born in any sorcerer from now on instead of only in his family or something like that.

I very much like the idea of gojo coming back and having a 3 v 1 against Sukuna now realizing he's not alone anymore, and beating Sukunas ideals of selfishness and love being meaningless.

I think Gojo coming back would be far more beneficial for his character. In the entire series, we've seen a fake version of him, always hiding his true self to impress others. Seeing the true Gojo without him following others or pretending to be the smug, confident man who annoys others for attention, would be a far better way of showing Gojo’s growth. He also could just fight Tengen, going against the being that is linked with the six eyes, the one that started it all. If Gojo truly will be going off of the lore that inspired him he could make a binding vow to sacrifice everything, and to truly be enlightened. Losing a eye, limitless, and possibly more in exchange for far more. Gojo might even evolve his six eye into something far superior.

Aye just throwing shit out there but what if yuji really said domain expansion & it’s ability is something similar to Yamamotos south bankai ability from bleach, like it’s some soul based domain that allows him to call upon the souls of the victims of whoever’s trapped in his domain to fight alongside him, or the souls of the his dead friends that he continues to fight for, or just any souls in general, idk I could possibly see something like that working with his character, but I know it’s a crazy ass theory that most likely won’t happen lol

the crazy part is how much denial the fanbase was in, that Gojo is coming back and now its been so long we've accepted his death, that ppl are like 'he should stay dead'. personally my stance was always that Gojo passing the torch is what makes narrative sense for Gojo but that no one is even close to Sukuna's power level that anything Gege pulls for the win against Sukuna is going to be an ass pull. which yuta saying 'we cheated' basically confirms. so idk, we'll see.

Hopefully gojo is a ghost cause then he can be like sukuna Grim reaper. The reminder that there is more to life than his way of life. And everytime this occurs to him gojo shows up to remind him thematically of that reality.

for the first part of the video i agree that the concept of gojo "having a laugh" at sukuna about his ideology winning in some sort is plausible but why know? in the climax of yujis battle for example **SPOILERS FOR ATTACK ON TITAN** like sasha appeared before jean at the end of the story as the hero's won against eren, so if you are correct it will be more appropriate if sukuna was on his last breath but clearly sukuna in this chapter is losing but not on his last breath

I think Gojo will be coming back but considerably weak. I hope he made a binding vow where his Unlimited Void is not dangerous anymore but negates the effect of domain expansion of the enemy. But see through the soul and talk with megumi for the last time to save him like how he save kid megumi from being sold. Probably he will have a new form of domain expansion by sacrificing his other six eye.

What if the ghost is someone frome the gojo clan who gave sukuna a run for his money back in the heian era and made him flee the way yoriichi made muzan flee and scatter (crackpot theory) which is why he wanted to figure out infinity and find a way to breach it . We don't actually know who the strongest opponent of sukuna was , but an unprepared sukuna facing a six eyes limitless for the first time without 10 shadows would probably bring him to the brink of death .

Hope it's something like deathnote with light seeing L before death .. yet I'm happy enough for gojo to return at the end when yuji defeats suk

Just realised if it weren't for megumi Yuji could've just used clip & snip to chop sukuna in half while sukuna got distracted by gojo using cutie honey

18:57 I seen many people talk about how this chapter saying Gojo never cared assasinated Gojo's character. I'm not sure but I kinda understand, I will also be pissed if Oda made Luffy lets his crew die and say he never cared.

I think people are expending opinions they can't afford, if we don't have all the pieces of this puzzle, then we don't have anything to base our opinion on. The only thing people have is their narrative interpretation on the trajectory of the series; the problem with "interpretations" is that it's inherently personal and people don't want to feel dumb, so they just blame every other external factor. *A):* _"Was I wrong about Gojo coming back? No, it's probably just a ghost; if it isn't a ghost, then it's bad writing and the series is ruined."_ *B):* _"Was I right about Gojo coming back? Yes, I was right and this series is peak; though if I was wrong then it's because it was a marketing strategy and Gege did it because he fell off."_ One of those 2 things are going to happen.

If gojo comes back without his powers ask yourself this:- Do you love gojo because he's the strongest or do you love gojo because he's satoru.

Sukuna power scaling wise is very weird, because all sorcerers now have shown some relativity to him making him technically the weakest he's ever been. Gojo only disabled his domain for a while, with Kashimo the expected difference to Sukunas favor was shown. Against Yuji and Higuruma he didn't get hurt but he still got punched and catched in a domain before Yuta came in to do the first real lasting damage that you can warrant as the culprit that started nerfing him again. We got comments the sorceres cheated and still aren't sure what they did that upscaled them. Yuji got soul swapped to learn key tools like simple domain and RCT, but the thing that made Sukuna confused was their durability, that's unanswered. We would also need some explanation for speed. Originally Sukuna and Gojo are well understood to be far past Kenjaku who in turn is a little past disaster curses who in turn are generally past sorcerers, Yuji didn't overpower Mahito exactly and he didn't get stronger afterwards either, so what excuses does Sukuna have? If Gojo came in for real he should stomp him np

imma keep saying its kenjaku till proven otherwise, because then imma be sitting here like the panel of saitama going “ok.” also cursed spirit sukuna would go hard.

They noticed, because it was the plan .

I think Gojo coming back proves the merger is happening I think it’s a good idea as he will more than likely sacrifice himself to save his students coming full circle , but also I don’t think he’s back Sakuna the only one who looked over yuji and todo would’ve noticed if it was someone there

Not sure about the uraume bit. If she was heavily affected from the poison in choso's blood i highly doubt that she is able to handle sukuna's fingers. Though it would be pretty cool if he/she could and sukuna would have both flame and ice powers

I know we keep saying Gojo is Megumi’s dad but…..Megumi seems to not see it that way and from what we see Megumi actually doesn’t know Gojo very well….like at all Literally the first time we see them together Megumi just refers to Gojo as “this guy” and questions what Gojos personality is even like…. Megumi literally calls Gojo a “benefactor”

i can see gojo coming back just to replace tengen's place after the mergere

So gojo "beats sukana" by being a ghost image not just because the main character beat him if y'all don't want gojo to beat sukana why want this weak azz he won in spirit that ain't no win let yuji get all the praise if y'all wanted gojo to lose and never win this makes no sense

We probably have 2 more chapters for this fight left

Guessing you missed how in the other "ghost" references that background was solid white and in this one the background is exactly the same as the current battle setting. It's really not that hard. Gojo coming back does not in any way ruin the story. Gojo coming back doesn't diminish anything. And the fact sukuna is still merking everyone shows that gojo's ideology was not fulfilled.

Gojo may have died happy, but he still died with regret, so that's not a complete save I think.

honestly i feel like a gojo had a solid character arc but if he were to comeback via binding vow or brief apparition i think it can add a lot to his narrative

I don’t care yes please bring home back, everyone loves him

I think it's Gojo's cursed energy. At the start of the fight ichji tells him his energy lingerd there so long that no new curses formed. During the fight they dropped underground. I think we're looking at the spot Gojo got sealed at

I personally would rather see him return than stay dead for the simple reason I just cannot get over him getting off screened while on a 4 black flash amp and having the 6 eyes. He was fully healed from his own purple too so it’s a stupid plot hole. Yuji and Megumi deserve the final win against Sakuna though.

Can you do what if yuji was main character in fate stay night

I mean if he comes back he needs to hobbled or something, like just his upper half

I feel like he going to help fight the merger

Gojo’s ending was beautiful and would be perfect IF he had closure with Megume as his “father” and the whole thing with Toji as well as if he had buried Geto. I want Gojo to come back, nerfed beyond all recognition, finish seeing through passing the torch (see his work pay off) and finish the loose end of Geto’s body and Fushigoro

Cursed energy = to Yuta is all of a sudden close to death?

What if instead of a kaiju, the merger is more similar to soekthing like kid buu

What if gojo traded all of his power for a heavenly restricted body, for an equal exchange hed be like a super maki. Still has hands but he's nerfed. Id rather he just give up an eye but still be a bad ass.

I’m convinced that that’s not Gojo at all and is instead the six eyes taking shape, and it’ll be revealed that the six eyes are a binding vow that someone in the Gojo line made to prevent the merger in return for their power

It might be a vengeful spirit

What if Sukuna just activated his domain but used the part of his brain gojo damaged in their fight .

Theres the worry of If gojo can come back from certian death why couldnt sukuna. And that alone would make his death less impactful since there will always be that question Whats stopping him from pulling a gojo?

Fuck it new theory, norbora is using Gojo body w new technique

I think it may be a hallucination bc Sukuna told Gojo he would either 1) Die or 2) not have the precision to combat Sukuna in a DE clash. Maybe Sukuna thought he was good for another DE but it triggered his death. Thus Sukuna seing Gojo Also in ch230, we see a black speech box with domain expansion so it could still be Sukuna casting his domain

Personally speaking i think he should stay ridden away,and not come back. His send off and character arc as a whole blends so well together,that him returning would throw away the narrative and everything the story has going for it,just for the hype train. There's no reason for the ending to derail I think it's his soul/ghost and i can explain why if wanted

He’s not coming back 😭😭

Wait is megumi gonna get the six eyes?

The only way for gojo to comeback os to fogth the merger Him coming back and defeating sukuna would ruin his goal kf creating a future where people dont relie on him/new strongest Not to mention all the chapters since gojos death become essencially pointless Plus it doesnt make sense for gojo to comeback and then win Eigthwr keep him dead or dont kill him in the first place Plus its yujis time to shine He was meant to prove he js the strongest of tommorow Not for gojo to show he is the strongest Yuji should kill sukuna To gwt his revenge And to ahow that the old age is long gone.woth both sukuna and gojo dead

WHAT IF ITS SOMEONE ELSES SOUL INSIDE OF GOJOS BODY?!!?!?!??

Gojo tellingegumi about his father and how he killed him, and how he actually did care about megumi's well being will pull him back from the deep. And yuji, having climbed to the heights of gojo and sukuna will fight beside the "gojo" that was seen. If its a past sorcerer who sukuna killed before who was just waiting until sukuna was so weak to show up and attack, or if its just gojo. Yuji will fight along side, and on par with, the strongest.

YES HE SHOULD COME BACK !!! He told me he would win and I never doubted him he PROMISED ME , he would never lie to me !!!

I do not want Gojo to come back but I do think it would be cool if the six eyes or limitless technique still play a part in the story. The six eyes are such a staple to the JJK universe and I would love to see that part of Gojo return again. Gojo himself though, I think had a very good ending for his character and I see no reason for him to come back. I think it could be Gojo body but not Gojo soul, maybe Ui Ui used his ability to put someone in Gojo body, but I think Gojo soul already passed on.

Listen I love gojo but I wouldn't hate it if he stayed gone. I wanna see what becomes of yujis character he's been cooking

Its probably Nobara with one of his eyes 😭 or its Yuuji DE 🤞

Ngl bro this just felt like copium for people that don’t want him back lmao

It could just be sukuna but if Gojo is coming back, he's coming back weaker and nerfed. Gojo comes back but not as the strongest like usual, hence 'ghost of the strongest'. But that's just a thought & possibility, I don't think he's coming back tbh

Bro I’m sorry but huh? You say sukuna doesn’t have access to his ct he literally used dismantle in 260 as well as 260 stating as long as he can refresh his ct he can pop more domains.. that was stated on the last panel. It also states he is at yuta level in terms of CE atm.. that’s still way higher than anyone currently in the fight. On top of that.. uruame has already stated sukuna isnt trying.. and he isn’t..

I believe gojo being alive would be more negative than good cause Yuji himself has always fought an uphill battle to be seen as the protagonist of the series for a multitude of factors and gojo is one of those factors. Even in the fight against sukuna he’s been diverting his attention and praise to everyone but Yuji despite him doing the most against sukuna and after the barrage of black flashes it feels like JUST NOW that sukuna began to acknowledge Yuji. Gojo being back would immediately negate all of that, however I can see this being gojo’s spirit mocking sukuna, how sukuna needed binding vow upon binding vow to make it as far as he did, & how this entire time sukuna “MAIN DISH” wasn’t Yuuta, or maki, or higaruma but Yuji instead. Gojo is a troll and him coming back as a spirit to mock sukuna would be in character and serve as much deserved Yuji hype as the strongest of today gives his blessings to sukuna and to the audience that Yuji itadori was the real threat all along. Also gojo did die happy, he died fulfilled in himself that he finally got to enjoy a battle to his fullest, despite what gojo said legit he fully won that battle, he brought the king to his knees with no need of a binding vow and no real prior knowledge of sukuna’s abilities, He raised a generation of sorcerers that came together to stop sukuna, and despite not being able to show sukuna what “love is” that’s not eating away at gojo cause he know that Yuji will be the one to show it to sukuna. How the love of your comrades can make a cog like Yuji, someone who compared to sukuna isn’t all that powerful, be an immovable stone, how it was others care & love for Yuji and others that let them sacrifice their lives without fear. Higaruma, Yuuta, maki, Choso & funny enough heart nipple man, ino, all of them came together cause they believe in one another and care for others! And hell heart nipple and Miguel wouldn’t have even been here if gojo killed them back at the end of volume 0, Yuta or especially Yuji wouldn’t be here if not for gojo. I imagine gojo spared Choso solely cause of Yuji after he was released, The sheer amount of things that are happening now because of gojo is much more impactful than him returning to “finish” the job Also funny thing, in Baki during the father son fight, Baki’s grandad’s ghost came to watch and told Baki “you know you can beat your dad if you wanted to.” I just Need Gojo’s ghost telling that to Yuji, except have him say “Yuji you know you can pop a domain if you wanted to.” Cause honestly a domain expansion will be the final push Yuji needs to really hurt sukuna, he’s down to Yuta levels of CE, he has cursed technique burnout, no rct, and depending on the domain type, hollow wicker basket may not save him.

I think the ones that think Gojo shouldn't return are mainly the Sukuna fans... The same ones that spent months talking about copium, and now they don't wanna be wrong.

Wow I’m early

Gojo is sukuna's idol. Todo just boogie woogie his schyzophrenia

Its Yuji's Dad bro trust

yea. he should. will he? not likely 😢

What if it isn’t Gojo. But Jin Itadori / Sukunas brother Because yuji’s eyes are turning into a demon.

Yuji landed 9 black flashes

Thanks for the upload. Having recently gotten into JJK, and doing some cosplays, I totally get why it is so popular. I'm even catching up on the manga, which I don't usually do. JJK content creators like yourself go a long way in helping me enjoy the series even more! Keep up the good work. Will you go to Heaven when you die? Here’s a quick test: Have you ever lied, stolen, or used God’s name in vain? Jesus said, whoever looks with lust has already committed adultery in their heart. If you have done these things, God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart, and the Bible warns that one day God will punish you in a terrible place called Hell. But God is not willing that any should perish. Sinners broke God’s Law and Jesus paid their fine. This means that God can legally dismiss their case: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Then Jesus rose from the dead, defeating death. Today, repent and trust Jesus, and God will give you eternal life as a free gift. Then read the Bible daily and obey it. God will never fail you.

There is so much risks on having Gojo coming back that it's insane to take such a risk. Unless Gege is a genius we rarely see and he can pull it off, I don't think it's a safe option to have him coming back. Dead character should stay dead especially when their narrative arc is over

Personally, as much as I enjoy Gojo as a character, he should stay dead. His character arc and also death arc was well done and complete, and to uproot it this close to the supposed end... would leave it unresolved in the end, which would be far worse for the character.

I just wanna watch the burning that is the gojo Fanbase crying that the object that has basically ruined the JJK fanbase for a lot of people not come back. They been complaining and throwing tantrums every day about his death and return for 9 month…yeah they deserve this trolling for being too illerate to see he isn’t coming back.

Mark my words. Its Yujis domain. Gojo is a projection/"ghost" in yujis SHRINE. and most likely anyone thats been killed by the individual in the domain is allowed to attack them

9 black flashes

Short answer is no keep the “strongest” laying with his family the dirt Long answer is still no because from an agenda point of view him helping finishing off a basically dead and powerless sukuna is not impressive for their level of power and would be pointless to do. Two Sukuna is the old man that needs the young ones to put him to bed not a snapped twig that fell from the tree of life also gojo himself said that he trust in his students to handle sukuna. And finally we had never needed gojo as a fandom when he was sealed and it been a while since he had died and the series is still going strong so keep him on the airplane and out of the war zone

i just hope its not takaba, thats the last thing i want lol

I think Gojo should not come back. Mostly because people want him back for superficial reasons, JJK fans are kinda weird. Gojo was all about cultivating sorcerers that would surpass him, and we’re seeing the results of that in how he nurtured Yuta’s and Yuji’s potential. With Yuji soul swapping with Yuta, we’ve been seeing Yuji finally becoming realized as a sorcerer. Gojo returning would undermine this, and Yuji’s role as THE PROTAGONIST.

261 cut to Hakari

Gojo should not return, because in my opinion, it would go against Gojo's character. Gojo believes in his students, so much so, that he entrust sometimes his duty to some of his students. To say that he returns is to help is indirectly saying, he doesn't trust his students enough.

Me GOAT mi Or yuta returning from the airport reincarnated

It feels terrible to take this victory from Yuji

I dont think its a good idea to look too deep at english wordings, when it is usually not that accurate... it is left vague for a reason (in japanese).

You're late. 261 spoilers are out. It is Gojo

Sukuna hasn’t eaten his 20th finger there’s a minimum of 20 chapters. And we need to know what his trident does. I think it’s kenny not gojo

Noooo leave him be cause then people are gonna start complaining Abt how they shouldn't have brought him back

gojo coming back will ruin death’s meaning in jjk 🙏

Its clearly mei.mei 😤😂😂

Sukana lost because he was haunted by a ghost lol weak that's a suck ending

Why is this a discussion. Why shouldn’t he return. He’s the strongest in the verse aside from sakuna.
