With Jujutsu Kaisen manga soon set to end, most fans began theorizing about the possible return of fan-favorite character Satoru Gojo. As a result, many fans believed that the strongest sorcerer would return in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 270. Unfortunately, that seemingly isn't the case.

As evident from the alleged Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 270 spoilers, Satoru Gojo will not be returning in the upcoming chapter. However, the alleged spoilers revealed one story development surrounding Megumi that might as well be the biggest hint about the strongest sorcerer's revival.

Jujutsu Kaisen: Megumi's visit to Tsumiki's grave could be a hint at Gojo's revival

Following the Shinjuku Showdown, Yuji Itadori was shown handing Megumi and Nobara letters from Gojo to them. The two sorcerers reading the letters were the only developments post-battle that suggested that Satoru Gojo had actually passed away.

Besides them, no other person was shown discussing the death of the strongest sorcerer. According to fans, this was a sign. This is because if Gojo had actually passed away, the Jujutsu Tech Sorcerers would have been shown discussing the same. Instead, they spoke about everything else besides the death of the Six Eyes user.

With such theories in mind, the only thing that could have effectively canceled out any possibility for Gojo's return would have been if the manga showed fans a panel of his grave. Therefore, just as the spoilers got delayed in leaking out, fans started panicking.

This is because the last time the manga's spoilers were delayed was before Chapter 236 which featured Satoru Gojo's death. Hence, upon the manga's delay, fans predicted that the upcoming chapter might finally confirm Gojo's death with an opening scene featuring the strongest sorcerer's final rituals. Therefore, many fans dreaded witnessing a grave amidst the alleged spoilers.

Surprisingly, fans' predictions turned up almost true as the alleged Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 270 spoilers opened with a grave. Fortunately, the grave wasn't of Gojo but Megumi's deceased sister Tsumiki Fushiguro.

The alleged spoilers opened with Megumi Fushiguro and Shoko Ieiri visiting Tsumiki's grave to decorate it and pray for her happiness in the afterlife. As grieving as that development might have been, this means that the manga has yet to confirm Satoru Gojo's death in the series.

Therefore, with Jujutsu Kaisen manga set to release its final chapter next week alongside a happy announcement in Weekly Shonen Jump magazine, there exists a chance that the manga might either hint at or showcase Satoru Gojo's revival once and for all.

Moreover, fans should also note that, within the alleged spoilers, one Takaba panel features a character who looks very similar to Suguru Geto. Hence, no matter how delusional fans may be acting in curating theories, they are not wrong in assuming that manga creator Gege Akutami has something big planned for the manga's end.

Even the editor's comment suggested that there was more to come. As a result, fans should wait until the release of Jujutsu Kaisen's final chapter to know what Akutami has planned next for the series.
