This article contains spoilers from the JJK Modulo series.
Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo So far it has given the fans an absolutely incredible experience. The series showed fans what Gege Akutami could do when he focused heavily on world building and character writing. While JJK Modulo is a short manga, it's clear to see that there is no drop in quality that Gage has.
Jujutsu Kaisen: The 20 Powerful Powers of Sukuna
Tsukuna is the most powerful character in Jujutsu Kaisen, and here are some of her most powerful abilities.
Right now, JJK Modulo focuses on the building conflict between humans and the alien race of Simurians. Due to the growing conflict, especially after the shooting of Cross, this war seems inevitable. However, shortly before the battle, fans will often get to see the conclusion of the duel between Yuka Okkotsu and Dabura. As things stand, it seems one-sided even after the conflict Yuka made a binding vow and called Mahorag. As such, there is a great need for the strongest magician to return and take his place. Of course, Gojo Satoru is dead and he can't fight Dabura, which he would gladly have. instead of him, Yuji Itadori must once again rise above and show the world why he was a student of Gozo.
Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo will officially bring Yuji Itadori back to fight Dabura
Yuji Itadori will return to fight against Dabura
This has already been confirmed JJK Modulo that Yuji Itadori is alive and well. In fact, he is stronger than ever, because it has already been confirmed that he is no longer old. Yuji was the perfect vessel for Sukuna, so it makes sense that his body is special. On top of that, it should also be remembered Yuji ate Death Paintings 4-9, meaning his body is no longer human and he has stopped aging.
I think it was during the Edo period… or maybe Keicho? I forget, but the heads of the respective houses killed each other in a fight before the nobility. Back then, the leaders were Six Eyes like me for the Gojo family and Ten Shadow Technique users like Megumi for the Genin family. Do you understand what I mean? – Gojo Satoru to Megumi Fushiguro, JJK Chapter 117
Based on everything JJK Modulo As fans have said, it's pretty clear Yuji Itadori will return at some point. After Yuka vs. Dabura, his return makes no sense because he is no longer needed. Only that time Yuji can actually turn to JJK right now before the duel starts.
Can't let it be Yuka vs. Dabura
-
Yuka is currently under suspension
-
His death has already been signed
Yuka vs Dabura is a very exciting fightBut this cannot be allowed to be fully concluded for two main reasons. The first reason why this battle cannot be allowed to conclude is because it will inevitably kill Yuka instantly. She only has three months left to live and Tsurugi wants to live these three months to the fullest. If Mahoraga beats Dabura, it will kill Yuka, as she is involved in the ritual. If not, then Dabura will kill Yuka. In any case, he will die prematurely, despite already having a short life.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Why Yuji Itadori Left the Mages, Explained
Yuji Itadori has disappeared and left the magicians behind. Here's why JJK is at Modulo.
I think it was during the Edo period… or maybe Keicho? I forget, but the heads of the respective houses killed each other in a fight before the nobility. Back then, the leaders were Six Eyes like me for the Gojo family and Ten Shadow Technique users like Megumi for the Genin family. Do you understand what I mean? – Gojo Satoru to Megumi Fushiguro, JJK Chapter 117
The second and most important reason why she didn't fight Dabura outright is because if she did, her goal of overcoming Yuta would not be accomplished. Making a binding vow is strengthening Yuka. It's not a natural progression of power, and it's clearly not something she wants on her own. Yuji Itadori must return exactly and show the world why he is the strongest magician around, and also save Yuka's life.
Yuji may die in the fight against Dabura
Another reason why Yuji Itadori absolutely must return as this will also end his own character arc. It is established in JJK Modulo that he cannot die, and this makes him sad for various reasons. The first main reason is that he cannot fulfill his grandfather's last wish, and secondly, he cannot stand friends dying around him.
Dabura's Cursed Techniques are —- and Light. —- Embodying murderous intent—a concept impossible to describe even in words to Earthlings—passed through the Deskunte tribe. – Narrator in Dabura's Cursed Technique, JJK Modulo Chapter 15.
Yuji wants to be freed from this prison and the fight against Dabura will be the perfect opportunity for him to achieve that.. Dabura is the only surviving character who can kill Yuji in battleAnd that's why this fight absolutely has to be. Once again, JJK will give fans a battle of the strongest, and it's definitely going to be a battle to watch.
