Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236 is the most shocking ever as it confirms the death of a fan-favorite character. Here’s what really happened.

Jujutsu Kaisen ended its previous chapter by almost confirming Gojo’s victory. The battle of the strongest was the most intriguing fight in the series. It ends in chapter 235, where Kusakabe declares Gojo to be the victor.

Gojo had the upper hand throughout the entire battle, so his victory wasn’t all too shocking. Despite several fans worrying over his fate, Gojo was too confident. As such, he launches his most devastating Hollow Purple and blows up Shinjuku with it.

However, Gojo fans didn’t get to rejoice in his victory for too long before a tragedy struck. Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236 changes the entire course of the battle. Delve deeper to find out what happened.

Which fan-favorite character dies in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236?

Jujutsu Kaisen’s beloved sensei, Satoru Gojo, meets his end in chapter 236.

Gojo has been a fan-favorite character since the very beginning. With his charm, his humor, and his strength, fans can’t find any reason to dislike him.

Gojo was sealed in the Shibuya Incident arc and was freed much later in the series. As soon as he came out, he fought Sukuna in Shinjuku. The battle was incredibly intense, as it should be. One is the strongest sorcerer alive, and the other is the King of Curses. 

Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236 confirms his tragic death with panels of his upper body lying lifeless on the ground while the lower half is standing in front of Sukuna. Gojo meets his deceased friends, Geto, Nanami, Haibara, Riko, and Kuroi. 

At first, we see Geto and Gojo in their high school uniform, so it looks like a flashback scene. But we soon learn that he is talking with the spirits of his deceased friends. After he bids farewell to all of them, the scene changes to reality. It’s something Gojo fans would never have wanted to see, no matter what.

Twitter/X is already flooding with fans expressing their remorse over the death of their favorite character. Fans have always been concerned about Gojo’s death, but the previous chapter washed off all their worries when Kusakabe declared Gojo’s victory. However, Sukuna had a trick up his sleeve, which Gojo didn’t see coming. In the end, the strongest sorcerer alive left the world without any regrets and was glad that he died at the hands of someone stronger than him.
