Yuta Okkotsu Returns toJujutsu Kaisen
The episode focused on the aftermath of the Shibuya Incident, which turned the neighborhood into a swamp infested with spirits of the dead that Kenjaku set free. In the middle of episode 23 ofJujutsu Kaisenseason 2, while the government officials are debating how to handle the situation, the attention moves to a young girl who is being tricked by a Cursed Spirit into falling into a trap. But just in time, Yuta Okkotsu appears spectacularly and saves the girl.
It is revealed that Yuta has managed to get back both Rika and his Special Grade standing. After that, Yuta talks with the leaders of the Jujutsu Society and shows no concern about Yuji being Gojo’s student. Because Yuji severed Inumaki’s arm, Yuta declares his intention to kill Yuji personally.
Jujutsu Kaisenanime fans were shocked to hear about Yuta’s declaration, but at the same time, his entrance brought energy and enthusiasm amongst fans who were sad about the deaths during the Shibuya Incident arc.
