Fans have been kept on their toes with the recent developments in Jujutsu Kaisen. The revered manga has unveiled a cataclysmic event – the massacre of the Jujutsu society’s higher-ups, creating ripples of suspicion, theories, and deep introspection on the future of the Jujutsu world.
Gojo Satoru: From Savior to Suspect?
Gojo Satoru, a character of unmatched strength and unparalleled skills in Jujutsu Kaisen, suddenly finds himself at the crossroads of suspicion. With his well-known antagonism towards the elders and their age-old beliefs, it wasn’t surprising that fingers pointed toward him after the discovery of the massacre. Despite his tumultuous past and open distaste for the elders, the notion of him descending to the dark side as a villain doesn’t sit well with many fans.
Given his overwhelming strength, incomprehensible abilities, and a certain lack of respect for authority, Gojo is being blamed for the massacre of the higher-ups. Then again, things are rarely as they seem in Jujutsu Kaisen.
The Dark Corridor and the Students’ Secret
But Gojo might not be the only suspect in town. A seemingly innocent chit-chat from Chapter 222 unveiled another twist. Yuta Okkotsu and Inumaki Toge, second-year students, were found wandering in a corridor eerily similar to the murder scene. Clues suggest that they might have had a hand in the gruesome event.
Twitter users like @gintrauma and @kaisen071 connected the dots between the ominous hallway and the students’ previous visits, leading to heightened speculation about their involvement.

Dismantling the Gojo Theory
While the power-packed Gojo remains a natural suspect, a closer look at the crime scene tells another story. His fighting technique is heavily reliant on energy, gravity, and spacetime distortions, contrasting starkly with the elders’ apparent physical wounds. This mismatch raises the question – could someone else have executed this brutal act? And if so, who?
Enter Yuta – skilled in physical combat, and one who bears a katana. With his close ties to Inumaki, their combined abilities could indeed align with the tragic event. Yuta’s cold demeanor in battle, coupled with Inumaki’s unique cursed speech technique, could explain the massacre in all its chilling detail.
A New Dawn for Itadori?
One positive outcome of this upheaval is the potential salvation of Itadori Yuji. Destined for execution from the manga’s outset, the absence of the higher-ups could mean his survival. With the anticipated rise of new leadership in the jujutsu society, Itadori might find allies rather than adversaries, leading to a fresh chapter for the cursed teen.
Jujutsu society is ever-changing, and this massacre could send a message: those who try to solve new-age problems with archaic methods won’t be tolerated by the new generation.
In Closing: An Unraveling Enigma
So, where does this leave us? The recent events have thrown the spotlight on characters often lingering in the backdrop. Whether it’s the powerful Yuta, the mysterious Inumaki, or the formidable Gojo, the puzzle continues to mystify fans. The only certainty is that the repercussions of this event will reverberate through the Jujutsu Kaisen narrative, reshaping its future in unexpected ways. Only time will reveal the true orchestrator behind the curtain.
