Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 126: Enter the Veilwalker – The Forgotten Sorcerer Returns
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 126 marks the dawn of a new and terrifying arc. With Gojo Satoru recovering from the emotional and spiritual war with Zanka, Gege Akutami wastes no time introducing the next threat—The Veilwalker.
The chapter opens in a mountainside crypt, where scrolls burn and old names are whispered. A robed figure meditates amid cursed talismans and broken ceremonial mirrors. Their face is obscured by cloth etched with sacred seals, but their presence is undeniable.
This is The Veilwalker—an ancient jujutsu user erased from the clan records, who once walked beside Kenjaku during the earliest experiments in vessel manipulation.
As they rise from their meditation, we hear the first chilling line:
“I taught Kenjaku how to trap souls. He just had better marketing.”
Flashbacks reveal a hidden chapter in the jujutsu timeline. The Veilwalker was once a Gojo-clan exile—banished for practicing cursed soul tethering, a forbidden art that predated Domain Expansions. The method was deem too unstable… and too sentient.
Now, with Gojo weakened and the world distracted by the fallout of the Zanka arc, the Veilwalker declares a return. Their goal? Not domination—but “correction”. They believe the current jujutsu society is corrupt memory, mercy, and modernity.
“Let the strong stand. Let the weak be vessels. That is order.”
Meanwhile, back at Jujutsu High, Gojo senses a disturbance in the cursed energy fields surrounding Kyoto.
Yuta receives a sealed envelope, marked with the Veilwalker’s ancient crest—a sigil long thought destroyed by the Five Principal Families.
The final panel?
A map drawn in blood. And at its center—Gojo’s ancestral estate.
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 126 confirms it: the next arc will be personal, ancient, and deadly. Jujutsu Kaisen is stepping deeper into its mythos, and the Veilwalker might be Gojo’s most ideologically dangerous enemy yet.
