Jujutsu Kaisen‘s fans have spotted a hidden detail that shed light on the series’ complex plot structure. A minor visual change has attracted the attention of the manga readers, which sparked discussion about the nature of Yuji Itadori. The speculation centers around the transformation in Yuji’s eyes, similar to Sukuna’s eyes.

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 267

Chapter 257 brought out a connection that revealed a familial link between Yuji and Sukuna. In that chapter, Sukuna said Yuji was his nephew. Thus, Yuji might have latent potential equal to Sukuna or even more that could come in handy in the final battle. This potential may be linked to his change in eye color and pattern that’s been seen in the latest chapter.

Yuji Itadori’s Eyes Say It All

Sharped-eye fans have noticed thatYuji Itadori‘s eyes have changed during the recent manga chapter 267. His normal yellowish eyes and irises have taken a new appearance. They have multiple concentric circles now, bearing a similarity to the eyes of the main antagonistRyomen Sukuna.

The change has not gone unnoticed by theJujutsu Kaisencommunity. One fan discussing on the forum stated, “He absolutely is destined to be the next King of Curses.” The claim seems to have gained traction which symbolizes Yuji’s growing power while fighting Sukuna.

The timing for these changes came at a crucial moment in the narrative. Some have noted that Yuji’s eyes transformed after his soul-searching ‘stroll’ with Sukuna. Others linked it to his growingmastery of Sukuna’s Cursed Technique Shrine.

The change in Yuji’s eyes appeared to be another example ofGege Akutami‘s technique of foreshadowing. Fans have tracked down when these changes occur, noting that they often coincide with Yuji’s moments of intense emotional or physical strain.

Some fans have cautioned against going too deep into the coloring of the eyes because Akutami is also known to be partially colorblind. Even then, the structural change in Yuji’s iris remains a point of discussion. He has the ability to harness multiple Cursed Techniques including those of the Death Painting brothers and even Sukuna’s own abilities. It has led many to believe that Yuji is far from reaching his full strength.

Gege Akutami’s attention to those details continues to keep fans engaged toJujutsu Kaisen. Analyzing each and every panel for clues makes fans think about what’s to come next in the sorcerer saga. Yuji becoming the next King of Curses after defeating Sukuna still remains on hold till the last page is turned.
