This article contains spoilers from the JJK Modulo series.
Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo has delivered an absolutely incredible experience to the fans so far. The series has shown the fans exactly what Gege Akutami can do when he puts a lot of focus on worldbuilding and character writing. While JJK Modulo is a short manga, it is clear to see that the quality that Gege possesses has not gone down at all.
Jujutsu Kaisen: 20 Strongest Powers Of Sukuna
Sukuna is arguably the most powerful character in Jujutsu Kaisen, and here are some of his most powerful abilities.
Right now, JJK Modulo is focusing on the building conflict between the humans and the alien race of Simurians. Due to the growing conflict, especially after the shooting of Cross, it seems that war is inevitable. However, shortly before the war, fans will most likely get to see the conclusion of the duel between Yuka Okkotsu and Dabura. As things stand, this duel seems one-sided even, after Yuka made a Binding Vow and summoned Mahoraga. As such, there is an immense need for the strongest sorcerer to return and take her place. Of course, Gojo Satoru is dead and he cannot fight Dabura, which he gladly would have. In his stead, Yuji Itadori will have to step up once again and show the world why he was Gojo's student.
Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Will Officially Bring Back Yuji Itadori To Fight Dabura
Yuji Itadori Will Come Back To Fight Against Dabura
It has already been confirmed in JJK Modulo that Yuji Itadori is alive and well. In fact, he is stronger than ever before, given that it has already been confirmed that he doesn't age anymore. Yuji was the perfect vessel for Sukuna, so it makes sense that his body is special. On top of that, it must also be remembered that Yuji consumed Death Paintings 4-9, which means that his body is no longer human and he has stopped aging altogether.
I think it was during the Edo period...or maybe Keicho? I forget, but the heads of the respective households killed each other in a fight before the aristocracy. Back then, the leaders were a Limitless Cursed Technique user with the Six Eyes like me for the Gojo Family, and a Ten Shadows technique user like Megumi for the Zenin Family. You get what I'm trying to say? — Gojo Satoru to Megumi Fushiguro, JJK Chapter 117
Based on everything that JJK Modulo has told the fans, it is quite clear that Yuji Itadori will return at some point. After Yuka vs Dabura, his return would not make any sense because he would not be needed anymore. The only time that Yuji can actually make a return in JJK is right now before the duel begins.
Yuka Vs Dabura Cannot Be Allowed To Happen
- Yuka Is Currently In A Suspended State
- Her Death Has Been Signed Already
Yuka vs Dabura is quite an exciting battle, but it absolutely cannot be allowed to fully conclude for two main reasons. The first reason why this battle cannot be allowed to conclude is that it would essentially kill Yuka immediately. She only has three months left to live and Tsurugi wants her to live out these three months to the fullest. If Mahoraga beats Dabura, it will then kill Yuka, since she's involved in the ritual. If not, then Dabura will kill Yuka. Either way, she would die prematurely even though she already has a very short life.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Why Yuji Itadori Left The Sorcerers, Explained
Yuji Itadori has disappeared and left the sorcerers behind. Here's why in JJK Modulo.
The second and most important reason why she cannot be allowed to fully fight Dabura is that if she did so, her goal of surpassing Yuta would not come to fruition. Making a Binding Vow is forcibly making Yuka stronger. This is not a natural progression of strength, and it is clearly not what she wanted for herself. Yuji Itadori must absolutely return and show the world why he is the strongest sorcerer around, and save Yuka's life as well.
Yuji Could Die In The Fight Against Dabura
Another reason why Yuji Itadori must absolutely return is that it would conclude his own character arc as well. It has been established in JJK Modulo that he cannot die, and this has left him saddened for various reasons. The first main reason is that he cannot fulfill his grandfather's last wish, and secondly, he cannot stand his friends dying around him all the time.
Dabura's cursed techniques are ---- and light. ---- is murderous intent given a tangible form — a concept that is impossible for earthlings to even describe in words — passed down through the Deskunte Tribe. — Narrator on Dabura's Cursed Technique, JJK Modulo Chapter 15.
Yuji wants to be freed from this prison and a fight against Dabura will be the perfect opportunity for him to get just that. Dabura is the only character alive who can kill Yuji in combat, and that is why this fight must absolutely happen. Once again, JJK will give fans the clash of the strongest, and it is certainly going to be a battle to behold.
