The Shinjuku Showdown Arc of Jujutsu Kaisen is one of the most intense arcs of the story as the sorcerers try to defeat Sukuna. We\u2019ve seen many characters reach their finest moments as they face off against the King of Curses. However, someone has yet to play an active role in the arc: Megumi Fushiguro, one of the series\u2019 main characters who\u2019s had key roles in every arc. Towards the end of the Culling Game Arc, he found himself in a precarious position as his body was taken over Sukuna, making him the new vessel of the ancient sorcerer. Ever since then, Megumi has been left to play a passive role in the story, something fans are not too happy about. In the Shinjuku Showdown Arc, many beloved characters like Choso, Higuruma, Kashimo, and \u2014 most of all \u2014 Gojo died while fighting Sukuna. Yuta, Maki, and Kusakabe have all suffered terrible injuries, while Yuji practically lost everyone dear to him. Things get even more twisted with Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 as Gojo returns \u2014 but with a depressing caveat. After dying, Gojo\u2019s corpse is used as a vessel by Yuta to get access to his technique to defeat Sukuna. This treatment of Gojo makes him one of the most tragic characters in the story. With so many major deaths and beloved characters suffering like this, fans are calling out Megumi\u2019s lack of an active participation in the story. Earlier in the arc, in Chapter 251, Yuji made contact with Megumi\u2019s soul and urged him to fight back against Sukuna\u2019s control. However, at that time, Megumi was too depressed and seemed to have given up, making the opportunity his friends fought so hard for end up in vain. This, along with the suffering of the other characters and Megumi giving up, has fans enraged with the Ten Shadows Technique user. One user on X commented: \u201cLet\u2019s agree that Megumi is the most useless link in this battle.\u201d Another said: \u201cYuta could have ended Sukuna in his domain if Megumi didn\u2019t fumble. And now that has cost us so many lives.\u201d A third fan added: \u201cAnd to think they literally would have beaten Sukuna if the objective wasn\u2019t to save Megumi.\u201d Some fans believe that Megumi will return to the story at a meaningful point, given that he\u2019s the deuteragonist of Jujutsu Kaisen. However, the fandom is split on this speculation. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 will be released on May 26, 2024, on Manga Plus and Viz Media.
