This article contains spoilers Jujutsu Kaisen.
Gege Akutami left many unanswered questions at the end Jujutsu KaisenLeaving fans scratching their heads and debating what happened to certain characters with little or no updates on their status. Gage can only reveal if they are alive somewhere or if they died a long time ago. Among them, Jin Itadori remains a huge mystery despite how important Yuji Itadori is to Itadori's existence.
Jujutsu Kaisen Fans are fully aware that Jin Itadori is Yuji's father and Wasuke's son, but his past, motivations, and actual role in the story aren't exactly clear. However, based on his actions alone, it's safe to assume that Jin Itadori is more sinister than Kenzaku, not because of power or body count, but because of choice. While Kenzaku is a monster by nature, Jin Itadori was human, fully aware, and still chose to look away.
Jin Itadori accepts Kenzaku as Kaori's replacement
Jin Itadori used his dead wife's body to produce a son
Fans love to know more details about the Itadori family, Jujutsu Kaisen It was not generous enough to give them what they needed to learn. In fact, there is almost no information about the Itadori family, other than a handful of fragmentary details and chaotic clues scattered throughout the story. In short, almost everything about Yuji's family remains a mystery.
Still, fans know that Jin Itadori is Yuji's biological father. JJK chapter 257 also revealed that his soul was the reincarnation of Sukuna's younger brother, who was adopted and eaten by the latter before he was born. In addition, Jin was also married to Kaori Itadori, who possessed an incredible cursed technology called the Antigravity System that invited Kenzaku further involvement in the Itadori family.
For the most part, Jin and Kaori struggled to have children. It was only after Kenzaku took control of Kaori's dead body that she became pregnant. Jin knew that Kaori wasn't really his wife anymore During her pregnancy, but it didn't seem to bother her one bit. He sat with his wife's corpse, lay next to it, and confessed to the lie Simply because it fulfilled her desire to have children. Until the end, he remains indifferent, making Yuji the result of willful compliance rather than a child born through mutual love. When Kenzaku uses Kaori, Jin Itadori allows it.
Jin Itadori did not raise Yuji
Yuji misses Jin Itadori
Despite Jin Itadori's extreme desire to have children, he was never really present in Yuji's life. While Wasuke stepped in to take full responsibility for Yuji's upbringing, he played no part in raising his own son. Yuji tells Junpei Yoshino in JJK Chapter 24 that he barely remembers his father. For some reason, Jin completely disappeared from Yuji's life, leaving a void filled with Wasuke love and care.
To be fair, Jin Itadori's status in JJK is unknown. After Yuji's birth, Gege Akutami never revealed more information about her, let alone her efforts. While some fans are claiming that Jin Itadori is still alive, there is no concrete evidence of his life. There is no evidence of his death, as all records of him disappear after Yuji's early years. Additionally, Yuji and Wasuke never visited the cemetery to lay flowers on her grave.
I never met her (Kaori). I miss only my father (Jin).—Yuji to Junpei
Interestingly, the same is happening to Iori Okkotsu at JJK Modulo. Like Jin Itadori, Iori is gone, leaving no trace behind. His last recorded conversation was with Yuji, after which all contact and sightings suddenly ceased. According to Tsurugi, Iori disappeared after Yuka's birth, drawing a parallel to Jin Itadori's complete absence from Yuji's life.
Jin Itadori's status is unknown
Is Jin Itadori alive or dead?
As mentioned, Jin Itadori's status at JJK is unknownBecause Gege Akutami did not address any details about his fate until the end. This led to much speculation about his death at the hands of Kenzaku, who fans believed had killed Jin after fulfilling his purpose in Yuuji's birth. Knowing Kenzaku's true nature, he was able to easily take out Jin without hesitation.
However, some still believe Jin Itadori disappears from Yuji's life as penance for abusing Kaori's corpse.. Perhaps he chose to walk away completely, carrying the burden of his guilt in solitude. Whether he is alive or dead, the sin of his choice and knowledge cannot be erased.
