Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 68: Shadows Move – Yuta Hunts, Friends Return, Loyalties Fracture
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 68 continues the simmering tension from Chapter 67, tightening the noose around Yuji Itadori’s fate. The Shibuya Incident may be over, but the fallout continues—and the battlefield has quietly shifted to one of political maneuvering and emotional betrayal.
The focus now rests on Yuta Okkotsu, who has officially accepted the mission to execute Yuji. But his demeanor is cold, controlled, and mysterious. Readers are left guessing: is Yuta truly loyal to the higher-ups, or is there a deeper plan at play?
As Yuji continues to operate in the shadows, new allies reappear—including Panda and Toge Inumaki. Their reunion adds an emotional spark, reminding us of the bonds forged at Jujutsu High before the darkness of Shibuya. But it’s clear things have changed. The world is colder now, and even old friends seem distant.
Inumaki’s return is particularly heartbreaking—his arm, missing. It’s quickly revealed that Sukuna’s rampage during the Shibuya Incident took a brutal toll on him. The weight of that injury hangs heavy in the air, especially as Panda quietly tries to support him.
Meanwhile, Yuta tracks Yuji’s movements with chilling precision. We get glimpses of how powerful and efficient Yuta has become since Jujutsu Kaisen 0. He’s not the same soft-spoken boy anymore—he’s now a hunter, and Yuji is the prey.
Gege Akutami masterfully blends emotional fallout with tension-building, keeping the pace steady but the stakes sky-high. The threat of internal conflict—student vs student—is no longer hypothetical. It’s inevitable.
Chapter 68 doesn’t explode—it simmers. It’s about shifting pieces on a cursed chessboard. And with Gojo still sealed and the higher-ups pulling strings behind the curtain, Yuji may have more enemies than ever before—some even wearing familiar faces.
