Summary
Jujutsu Kaisenchapter 262 has all the fans incredibly hyped and right now,the battle between Sukuna and Gojo, with Yuta in charge, has the attention of all the fans. This fight was one that no fan was expecting to see once again, but now, it is the most anticipated battle in the entire Shinjuku Showdown arc, right after the first battle between Gojo and Sukuna.
Things are going to get incredibly exciting inJJKchapter 262 and fans absolutely cannot wait to see how the battle between Sukuna and Yuta, who is in charge of Gojo’s body, is going to proceed.
Malevolent Shrine Vs Unlimited Void
The Two Ultimate Domains Of JJK Clash Once Again
Towards the end of the last chapter, fans were clearly able to see Gojo return to the battlefield, with Yuta in charge. Just by seeing Gojo once again, even though it was just his body, Sukuna was incredibly excited. At the same time, he was also incredibly impressed with Yuta, clearly stating that he did not expect him to go that far and that he underestimated him. Now,Yuta has shed his humanityand it is time for him to become the monster that Gojo once was. This is going to be an extremely exciting battle, with both of them unleashing their powerful domains right from the get-go.
My apologies! It seems I’ve underestimated you. I didn’t think you were capable of going this far…Okkotsu Yuta!
On the very last page of the chapter, fans were able to see Malevolent Shrine versus Unlimited Void once again, and it has been quite a while since this domain clash was observed. As fans have seen on many occasions before, these domains have not been able to deliver a telling blow right away.
As such, it is possible that both of them will end up crashing right away. However, that doesn’t mean that this will be the only domain clash that fans will see in JJK chapter 262. Yuta and Sukuna will most likely clash again and again in this chapter, with physical combat being thrown into the midst as well. Above all, fans should get to see a breakthrough being made in terms of domain clashes towards the end of the chapter, which has been hinted at by the author himself. As to which side this breakthrough is going to be made towards, fans should be putting their money on Gojo, or rather, Yuta.
Yuta’s Open Barrier Domain?
Yuta Could Manifest An Open Barrier Unlimited Void
The biggest problem that Gojo facedin regards to fighting Sukuna’s domainwas that it was an open barrier domain. While this was a major issue, he has already delivered the answer on how to deal with such a domain to his students. This was hinted at by the narrator himself in the previous chapter, which means that Yuta already has the answer to dealing with this problem. The biggest thing that Yuta could pull off here is an open barrier domain by himself. Essentially, Yuta could be able to use Unlimited Void as an open barrier domain, which would allow him to battle Sukuna’s Malevolent Shrine on an equal footing. This might sound like something too out there to the fans, however, it is a massive possibility.
As to how Yuta would be able to do this when Gojo couldn’t, the answer lies in his Sugarwara and Fujiwara bloodline. This was insinuated in the previous chapter when Gojo stated that he was born with better conditions than him. Essentially, if he has a connection to both of these bloodlines, then, perhaps, he will have the innate ability to do something that Gojo couldn’t and utilize an open barrier domain.
In case Yuta is able to pull this off, then, Sukuna will find himself in a great deal of trouble. It has already been established by Gojo before that Limitless is clearly the superior technique when compared to the Shrine. Limitless is, by far, the strongest cursed technique that fans have seen inJJK. The only issue Gojo had was that Malevolent Shine was an open barrier domain and he couldn’t deal with it efficiently. Now, if Yuta manifests an open barrier domain as well, then, the chances for Sukuna to lose a domain clash certainly increase. This could be the key to weakening Sukuna greatly and that is where Yuta is most likely going to shine.
A Look At Yuta’s Next Step
Yuta Okkotsu Could Run Out Of Time In JJK 262
JJKchapter 262 will most likely also focus on Yuta’s next step in battle. Fans know that Yuta is going to bemaking use of all of Gojo’s techniquesto the absolute best. He is going to be able to utilize Six Eyes to the best of their abilities, and perhaps due to his Sugawara and Fujiwara connections, he might even be able to use the Six Eyes better. There is no telling as to what Yuta can do and what his potential is going to be in Gojo’s body. At the same time, fans also know that Yuta will be making use of all of Limitless, which includes the neutral Limitless, Red, as well as Blue. Fans should also expect to see Purple at some point in this battle, but, for the time being, that will likely not happen.
However, whileYuta is expected to make use of all of Gojo’s abilities, he can only do so for 5 minutes, or so fans should assume at this point in time. There is no telling what will happen after 5 minutes, because Yuta’s Copy technique lasts only for this limited time. Once the 5 minutes are up, anything could happen with Yuta. There is a possibility that he will die instantly and Gojo’s corpse will just fall to the ground. The second possibility is that Yuta will die a slower death, which means that if the 5 minutes are up, he could die after 10, 15, or 30 minutes, depending on how long Yuta’s brain survives in the body. It is also possible that Yuta will just stay locked forever in Gojo’s body and die of old age eventually.
Yuta can only use his Copy technique for as long as Rika is fully manifested, which is 5 minutes. What happens after those 5 minutes are up?
JJKchapter 262 could give fans a hint as to what will happen to Yuta after the 5 minutes are up. This is going to be incredibly massive in this battle going forward because if Yuta is able to put Sukuna on his last legs and then the time runs out, then it would set up the perfect state for Yuji to take over and finish the job. On the other hand, it also opens the room for Gojo to take control of his body if Yuta leaves Gojo’s corpse, and he returns to his own body, which, by this time,should be patched up by Shoko. All doors are open at this point in time, and fans simply have to see what Gege has in store for them withJJKchapter 262.
