Jujutsu Kaisen sparks controversy after character’s divisive return from the dead

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 267 spoilers are out, but news has split fan opinion after the return of one popular character.

Jujutsu Kaisen manga is heading towards its finale, with the series concluding with Chapter 271 on September 30, 2024. The fight against Sukuna is almost over, as Chapter 267 spoilers confirm Nobara is alive.

In the Shibuya Incident Arc, she received a nasty attack from Mahito and stopped breathing. Arata gave her first aid and took her to emergency care. He made no promise of saving her life but also didn’t say there was a zero percent chance of her survival.

The series leaves her status unknown while giving hints along the way that she may not return. In Chapter 265, fans were sure she had died only for her to return in Chapter 267. She uses her technique on Sukuna’s final finger before greeting Yuji.

Nobara disappeared from the story after Chapter 125, which was released in October 2020. Jujutsu Kaisen fans are divided over this popular character’s sudden return when the series is about to end.

One fan shares, “Haven’t seen Yuji smile in a long time and yet we finally got him smiling the past 2 chapters cause of Megumi and Nobara.”

“The OG trio is back and Yuji is smiling again. I need more than 5 chapters because I want to see more of this,” replies another.

“I’m praying that when Gege said he’d end Jujutsu Kaisen in a way that would be satisfying, that he didn’t just mean it’d become Disney Kaisen. Cus literally what the f**k is this,” shares another.

Another shares, “Yuta gave this whole grandiose speech about becoming a monster only to be used to save Yuji from Sukuna’s domain and now Nobara came back only to save him from Sukuna’s domain AGAIN Both got used as plot devices this sh*t SUCKS.”

Jujutsu Kaisen manga will be ending in a few weeks, so find out the final chapter release date.
