Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262-2 will be released on Monday, July 8, 2024, at 12 am JST, according to the official MANGA Plus website. The chapter was set to release on July 1 after the three-week break taken due to Mangaka Gege Akutami's health. However, Shueisha notified the readers that Akutami was forced to take another week of break to properly recuperate.
Thankfully, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262-2 should have some basic spoilers coming later in the week as the release date draws nearer. However, with the spoiler process for creator Gege Akutami’s original manga series in danger (as are several others), this process is liable to stop at any time, including this week.
Fans at least know when Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262-2 will be released thanks to official information from Shueisha’s MANGA Plus website.

Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262-1 recap
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262-1 began with Ryomen Sukuna and Yuta Okkotsu (in Satoru Gojo’s body) activating their Domain Expansions. Yuta then shrunk Unlimited Void’s barrier to the size of a basketball, as Gojo once did. The narrator then explained this as a countermeasure to Sukuna’s Domain, which can withstand its attacks for roughly three minutes. Yuta revealed that he did body swap training with Gojo during the timeskip, confident in his skills.
Meanwhile, Sukuna removed the 99-second Binding Vow from Malevolent Shrine by shrinking the effective range. It now was only just surrounding the outer shell of Yuta’s Barrier, setting up their fight. In three minutes, Yuta’s goal was to damage Sukuna enough that he couldn’t use Malevolent Shrine, while Sukuna’s goal was to destroy the Barrier before then, widen Malevolent Shrine’s range, and kill everyone.
Yuta then tried preparing an attack, but Sukuna rushed at him using Domain Amplification alongside Domain Expansion. Sukuna explains that Yuta and the others didn’t know about it since Sukuna only used it inside Gojo’s Barrier, where Mei Mei’s crows couldn’t go or see. The issue ended with a focus on Rika, who had now fully manifested and was sobbing as she held Yuta’s lifeless body in her arms.
What to expect from Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262-2 (speculative)
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262-2 will be titled The Decisive Battle in the Uninhabited, Demon-Infested Shinjuku 34. The next chapter has the same title as the previous chapter, it is the continuation of the previous chapter which couldn't be completed by the author due to his health. As indicated by the climax of the previous chapter, the chapter would continue the battle between Yuta (Gojo) and Sukuna.
Moreover, the chapter could also show Yuta discovering Gojo's body even more, thus adding to the difficulty of controlling it. Gojo Satoru stood at the top as the strongest one for a reason, so controlling the body of someone like him is definitely not easy. With the majority of the sorcerers currently injured, could there still be a friend who could aid Yuta against the King of Curses?
