Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 125: The Calm Between Curses – Gojo Returns, But So Does the Danger
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 125 delivers a much-needed breath—before tightening the noose again. With Zanka’s tortured soul finally at peace, Gojo Satoru returns to the real world, changed but alive. The battle is over… or so it seems.
The chapter opens with Gojo regaining consciousness in the wreckage of the spiritual domain. His body is visibly drained, Six Eyes dimmed, his cursed energy almost fully depleted. Yuta, Shoko, and Megumi rush to stabilize him.
Shoko warns,
“He burned a part of his soul. He may never access that depth again.”
But Gojo, now calmer and more introspective, whispers,
“It was worth it. He remembered his name.”
As the team begins to regroup, the narrative shifts…
Far from Jujutsu High, in the depths of an abandoned shrine, a figure watches Gojo’s battle through a cursed mirror array—a long-forgotten relic capable of observing domain expansions from afar. The silhouette speaks:
“So… even the strongest can be emptied.”
This figure is unnamed but robed in black sutras, eyes covered by ceremonial threads. They are not a curse—but something worse: a former sorcerer, erased from the jujutsu registry and presumed dead for over a century.
The final panel shows the figure holding an old fragment of Kenjaku’s binding scroll, saying:
“The next vessel has awakened. And Gojo… won’t be ready.”
Back at Jujutsu High, Gojo rests—but the peace feels uneasy. Yuta looks to the sky and mutters,
“We won one war… but we just invited another.”
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 125 gracefully closes the emotional Zanka arc, but Gege Akutami wastes no time hinting at what’s coming next—a new enemy, likely rooted in jujutsu’s forgotten records, with a plan that began long before Gojo’s time.
