Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 recap

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 is titled Inhuman Makyo Shinjuku Showdown, Part 33. The chapter continues where the previous left off, as Yuji launches a furious assault on Sukuna, aiming to crush his heart. Sukuna attempts to counter with his domain expansion, only to halt abruptly as he senses a presence nearby. To his astonishment, Satoru Gojo emerges from the smoke, albeit with stitches across his forehead.

Punching Yuji aside, Sukuna acknowledges Yuta Okkotsu's audacious plan to defeat him by transplanting his brain into Gojo's body. A flashback shows Yuta's discussions with his allies regarding the plan to assume control of Gojo's body. The idea is met with skepticism and opposition, particularly from Maki Zenin and Atsuya Kusakabe.

However, Yuta vehemently asserts the necessity of drastic measures in combating Sukuna, saying that he would be the inheritor of Gojo's legacy as the ‘monster’ should the need arise. Later, Yuta confides in Gojo about his plan, eliciting a nonchalant reaction from his mentor in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 – he was more annoyed Shoko agreed to the plan than the idea of his body being used after his death.

Amidst their conversation, Gojo reflects on Yuta's lineage, speculating about the accuracy of Takako Uro's assertion regarding Yuta's ancestry. They believe Yuta likely had both Fujiwara and Sugawara blood in him. After encouraging his student to be better, Gojo set off to battle, briefly remembering Geto.

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 then sees Rin Amai's unique cursed technique explained, as well as his role in supporting Yuta's recovery after his battle with Sunkuna. As Yuta confronts the brink of mortality, he braces himself for the final phase of his treatment. As per Shoko’s advice, he prepares to activate his cursed technique at maximum capacity once transferred to Gojo’s body.

Yuta then apologises to Gojo for using his right hand for the cursed technique. In the present, Yuta and Sukuna initiate their respective domain expansions, as the narrator states that Gojo Satoru had already figured out how to beat Sukuna’s Barrierless Domain. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 concludes as Yuta releases Unlimited Void while Sukuna uses Malevolent Shrine.
