Even before Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 251 was officially released on February 19, 2024, it became a hot topic of debate on the internet. Heartbreaking images showed the terrible outcomes of Sukuna and Yuta’s upcoming clash, as JJK 251 spoilers surfaced online. Conversations on the recently released chapter on Shueisha’s MANGAPlus sparked curiosity about the possibly dark future that Yuta Okkotsu could face.
From Yuji reconnecting with his soul to Megumi losing all hope of life, those leaked visuals caused a new concern. What drew the greatest attention, however, were suspicions concerning the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 protagonist’s well-being. “Yuta dead”, “Yuta not dead”, and so on furious comments made it to X (previously Twitter), where fans are still assessing the odds of what occurred to Okkotsu at the end of the 251st chapter.
Here’s everything you need to know!
The manga chapter revealed Yuta’s severe wounds after being hit by Sukuna’s World Cutting Slash, which also resulted in the sudden death of the adored Satoru Gojo earlier.
Yuta fought hard against Sukuna, making use of the power of domain expansion. He even managed to use one of Sukuna’s abilities against him. Yuta wanted to injure Sukuna to the point where his control over Megumi would be weakened. However, things took a turn for the worse when Sukuna revived and treated Yuta to his most powerful weapon, the World Cutting Slash.
Did Sukuna kill Yuta?
Yuta has undoubtedly been hit by a lethal blow. His arm and chest looked to have sustained significant slashes, with the deep slice potentially harming his back.
Regardless of what happened, he will not be able to heal soon. As a result, we may consider him out of the fight. Furthermore, with his ring-wearing hand now disabled, it is hinted that he cannot rely on his cursed technique. In any case, it’s quite likely that he is still alive.
