Toge Inumaki has become a fan-favorite character in Jujutsu Kaisen due to his complex personality and unique powers. As a result, many ardent fans of the series wished to see him in action in the Shibuya arc. While Inumaki plays a crucial role along with the other sorcerers in the arc, he doesn't have much screen time.
In fact, he was last seen in the anime helping out Yuji Itadori by taking out several mutated human beings. However, given the brutal nature of the Shibuya arc, with so many important characters dying, several fans now fear for Inumaki's fate.
As such, many fans have taken to social media to ask questions such as, "Does Toge Inumaki die in the Shibuya arc?" Undoubtedly, Toge's fate in Jujutsu Kaisen has become a topic of concern among the ardent fans of the series.

Toge Inumaki's fate in Jujutsu Kaisen's Shibuya arc, explained
Toge Inumaki does not die in Jujutsu Kaisen's Shibuya Incident Arc. but he does lose his arm. As is seen both in the anime and manga, Inumaki arrives in Shibuya to help guide the civilian and manage the Transfigured humans roaming free.
Undoubtedly, it would have been extremely difficult for Yuji Itadori to deal with a crowd of transfigured humans on his own. However, Toge Inumaki's innate cursed speech technique allowed him to control the crowd alone. As such, he paved the way for his junior so that he could enter the Shibuya station and help Satoru Gojo.
That said, Inumaki doesn't evade a brutal fate in Jujutsu Kaisen's Shibuya arc. According to the manga, while he was busy maneuvering the crowd, elsewhere Sukuna fought against Mahoraga and unleashed his Domain Expansion. Interestingly, Sukuna's Domain Malevolent Shrine cut anything within its 200m radius.
Toge Inumaki and others in Shibuya were, unfortunately, within the range of Sukuna's domain. While the sorcerer was able to barely survive, the other non-sorcerers or civilians died a brutal death. It was later revealed in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga that Toge lost his left arm in that attack.
That said, the fact that he survived Sukuna's Domain (although barely) speaks a lot about his endurance as a Jujutsu sorcerer. Moreover, as a semi-grade 1 sorcerer, it was expected of him to withstand the King of the Curse's Malevolent Shrine.
Yet, even though Toge Inumaki is alive in Jujutsu Kaisen, he hasn't had a major moment since the Shibuya arc. Considering the fact that he is a fan-favorite character, mangaka Gege Akutami may decide to put him back into action later in the manga.
As for the anime, MAPPA studios may decide to expand Sukuna's domain expansion scene and clearly portray how Toge Inumaki survived the curse's attack, albeit at the cost of his left arm. Fans can also expect some anime original scenes featuring Inumaki.
Nonetheless, the semi-grade 1 sorcerer from Tokyo Jujutsu High barely evaded his death, when many other sorcerers stronger than him met the ultimate tragedy. This only shows how brutal the entire Shibuya incident was for the Jujutsu Sorcerers.
