The world of Jujutsu Kaisen finds itself in a state of flux, all under the masterful guidance of Gege Akutami. With a penchant for crafting characters and unpredictably dispatching fan favorites, Akutami continues to captivate audiences with their masterpiece. As the narrative unfolds, it seems another seismic shift looms on the horizon.
At present, the spotlight rests on Yuta Okkotsu and Yuji Itadori, locked in a fierce struggle against Sukuna, the King of Curses. Together, they’ve managed to contain Sukuna’s formidable power and even inflict some damage. However, with Valentine’s Day fast approaching, the dynamics may soon undergo a drastic alteration, with Yuta Okkotsu potentially becoming the target.
Yuta Okkotsu Might be the Next Target of Gege Akutami
Recently, Akutami unveiled Yuta Okkotsu’s Domain Expansion, “True and Mutual Love,” showcasing his arsenal of copied abilities embodied in several swords. Yuta is also accompanied by Rika Orimoto, a special grade Cursed Spirit and his childhood friend who, upon her demise, returned as a protector and combatant by his side.
Given Yuta’s thematic connection to “Love” and the impending Valentine’s Day, Akutami’s penchant for the unexpected could manifest in a grim turn of events. In Jujutsu Kaisen, flashback chapters often signal doom rather than empowerment, as seen with Satoru Gojo’s fate.
Despite Yuta’s current advantage over Sukuna, the looming date offers Akutami a prime opportunity to deliver another gut-wrenching blow to fans.

Valentine’s Day Might Become the Worst Day for the Jujutsu Kaisen Fans
Akutami’s track record speaks for itself when it comes to character demise. While Yuji Itadori inches closer to unlocking his full potential, Sukuna’s millennia-spanning experience grants him unparalleled insight into any strategy.
With Valentine’s Day as the potential stage for their next move, the outcome remains uncertain. Whether it spells the end for Rika Orimoto or Yuta himself, the aftermath promises chaos and heartbreak.
Though merely conjecture at this point, the looming Valentine’s Day casts a shadow of uncertainty over the fate of our beloved characters. If a flashback chapter materializes, fans brace themselves for the worst.
Perhaps it’s all part of Akutami‘s grand design—to push Yuji Itadori to his limits through suffering and loss. Yet, the notion of sacrificing a character on a day synonymous with love, especially one rooted in the theme of ‘Love,’ feels particularly cruel.
