This article contains spoilers for the "Jujutsu Kaisen" manga. Discretion is advised to the reader.

A few days ago we reported that fans of "Jujutsu Kaisen" were already becoming "immune" to the constant deaths that have been shown during the manga's most recent arc (which is also the last). So, when the Chapter 260 leaks finally hit the internet, most didn't expect the surprise they ended up encountering.

As is always the case in a day of leaks, several names of "Jujutsu Kaisen" became a trend on social media and surely continue to be so. What happened that was so exciting even for fans who had given up hope?

Well, the chapter begins with Aoi Todo, who considers himself Itadori's best friend, revealing his new left arm where he carries a new instrument that now allows him to activate himself with a completely different method. Now instead of resorting to applause to activate the Boogie Woogie Technique, you can do so through this new tool that allows you to make up to 50 trades per second.

Following this revelation, Todo and Itadori begin to launch combo attacks against Sukuna, and the Curse King is unable to mount a defense against this unpredictable new power. In fact, Sukuna thinks it's virtually impossible to adapt to the Boogie Woogie Technique, and keeps coming attack after attack from the duo.

But what made these leaks viral was what came right after this. When Sukuna thought he had adapted to the rhythm, he fell victim to one of Mei Mei's crows and Itadori gave him a Dark Flash all over his chest. Itadori takes advantage of this to pierce Sukuna's body and start tearing it apart while maintaining a completely unexpected expression.

And when Sukuna tries to expand his domain again, he sees something that leaves him speechless: the silhouette of Satoru Gojo's ghost in Yuji Itadori. "Those eyes are unmistakable," writes the note at the end of the chapter.

While it's definitely exciting, we shouldn't forget that this still continues the cycle of developments that Gege Akutami has been using in this latest arc: The sequence of a new character arriving, starting to fight Sukuna, and gaining an apparent advantage, has already been seen multiple times. In fact, what would follow is that Sukuna eventually adapts to this new power that threatens him and ends up killing the sorcerer (which in this case would be Everything). Could it be that the author resorts to this device again in Jujutsu Kaisen?
