Jujutsu Kaisen Author Gege Akutami has just brought back a legendary wizard

Gege Akutamis Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo continues to be incredibly strong, with each chapter doing better than the previous one to enthrall fans even more. Although the beginning of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo created some doubts among the readers, after 10 chapters, fans can confidently say that this story is absolutely sensational and it will only get better, especially as Gege Akutami has finally brought back a legendary wizard into the fold. For months, fans have been wondering if old characters will play a big part in the JJK Modulo.

The truth is that Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo has been so good that the show's characters are good enough to stand on their own two feet and rely on the old generation for hype. Even so, if the plot needs old legendary wizards to return, then the story simply becomes that much more exciting. Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo has now officially brought back the legend of Shinjuku Showdown and the new strongest wizard, Yuji Itadori. As the former protagonist of the series and the strongest wizard, Yuji is needed more than ever before as negotiations with the Simurians continue.

Gege Akutami brings back Yuji Itadori in JJK Modulo

• Yuji Itadori is alive and well

• Yuji Itadori has left the wizarding organization permanently

Gege Akutami has teased the return of Yuji Itadori in Modulo for quite some time now. Yuji was mentioned right at the beginning of the story in the same breath as Gojo Satoru, giving some fans an idea of ​​how strong he had truly become over the years. More recently, after Tsurugi finished his fight against Takeda and passed out, fans saw Mahito in limbo again, waiting for Yuji Itadori's death so the two could meet. In other words, this was Gege's confirmation to the fans that Yuji Itadori was now officially alive.

In Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 10, Gege Akutami finally reintroduced Yuji Itadori properly. This time, Yuji was shown walking in a heavy crowd, towering over them all. It seems like Yuji left the Wizarding Organization years ago and working independently, or simply just disappeared. But for now, Japan absolutely needs Yuji Itadoriand it's a very smart move by Gege. In this way, he has now officially brought back a legendary wizard from the Shinjuku Showdown in history, 68 years later.

Japan officially seeks Yuji Itadori to act as a deterrent

While Gege Akutami confirmed the return of Yuji Itadori in Jujutsu Kaisen Modulohe also revealed to fans why his return matters. Currently, Japan is facing a rather dangerous situation. Simurians exist on Earth, with their hopes of co-existing with humans. However, the Simurians are also very powerful. If negotiations with the humans break down, they have enough power to take over Japan by force.

This is especially true as they have a monster even rival Ryomen Sukuna, named Dabura. Of course, the Simurians want coexistence with humans, just as the humans seem to, but just in case things go south, the humans also need their own deterrent. At most they have none, which is why they have now started the search for Yuji Itadoriwhich has been missing for quite some time.

Yuji is the strongest wizard in JJK

By confirming Yuji Itadori as a deterrent against the SimuriansGege Akutami also confirms to fans that he is the strongest wizard in Japan at the moment. Yuji is the only one they have who is strong enough to face Dabura and protect his people.

This also means that after Gojo Satoru, Yuji Itadori was the one who became the strongest in Japanand he probably had this title when people like Yuta and Megumi got older, while he kept his youth.

Jujutsu Kaisen's sequel, called Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo, is featured in Weekly Shonen Jump Magazine. Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 11 will be released on November 16, 2025. Fans can read the chapter for free on Manga Plus.
