Following the release of Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 260, which hinted at Satoru Gojo’s possible return, fans have been speculating about the identity of the figure depicted in the final panel. While many theories have circulated, a particularly intriguing one suggests that Yuta Okkotsu could have inherited the Six Eyes from Gojo.
This theory posits that there is always a Six Eyes user, as evidenced by past events in the series. Kenjaku’s actions resulted in the death of one user, and yet another emerged during the Shibuya Incident arc.
With Gojo sealed and subsequently killed by Ryomen Sukuna, there’s speculation that Yuta, who shares a lineage with Gojo, may have inherited this ability.

However, this theory raises questions similar to those surrounding Gojo’s return. Given Sukuna’s weakened state in chapter 260, introducing an empowered version of Yuta or a resurrected Gojo could potentially deflate the tension of the plot.

The next chapter of Jujutsu Kaisen is expected to address the panel hinting at Gojo’s return and may provide clarity on Yuta’s role.
If Gojo does return, his involvement in the final battle against Sukuna will undoubtedly be significant. As for Yuta, his fate remains uncertain since he was last seen affected by one of Sukuna’s attacks.
While the possibility of Yuta inheriting the Six Eyes adds an intriguing layer to the narrative, author Gege Akutami must provide explanations to ensure coherence with the story’s context and maintain narrative tension.
As fans eagerly await further developments, the mysteries surrounding Gojo’s return and Yuta’s fate continue to fuel speculation within the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom.
