On: March 18, 2023
Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 is within the wings, and without delay, the manga is conserving followers in tune with Yuji as all the time. In spite of everything, creator Gege Akutami has put the fighter by way of some actual ache this previous month, and we’re about to witness even wilder issues as April rolls in. In spite of everything, a significant twist by Sukuna threw the Jujutsu Kaisen Manga the other way up this month, and the story took time to settle a debate concerning Yorozu alongside the way in which.
And what was the difficulty at hand? Properly, Jujutsu Kaisen followers have been on the fence about Yorozu’s gender. Particulars from the manga left readers confused, however now Jujutsu Kaisen has confirmed the cursed spirit is a lady.
The entire scenario got here to gentle when promos for Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 216 hit social media and seemingly referred to Yorozu as a person. A textual content bubble was shared extensively on social media of Yorozu being referred to by a particle reserved for males in Japanese. Nonetheless, fan translators like Lightning446 had been fast to appropriate the out-of-context proof.
It appears the entire ordeal was misconstrued because of the scene’s altering POVs. Akutami likes to put in writing quick and unfastened throughout these sorts of interactions. The usage of “?” virtually definitely refers to Sukuna on this scene, and what’s extra is that Yorozu has been coded with female descriptors this complete time. Even past possessing a lady’s physique by way of Tsumiki, Yorozu makes use of historically female speech cues. As an example, they use particles within the Jujutsu Kaisen manga you’d count on a lady to make use of.
In fact, there may be all the time the prospect Akutami was imprecise with Yorozu’s gender. The author might all the time shock readers, and that will not be the primary time Jujutsu Kaisen has caught followers without warning. As an example, characters like Uraume are nonetheless seen as nonbinary as their gender has been impartial from the beginning. However for now, it appears the proof suggests Yorozu is a lady or feminine presenting at present.
Actually, we should always study extra about Yorozu earlier than lengthy because the Jujutsu Kaisen manga is gearing up for his or her massive battle in opposition to Sukuna. The cursed spirit is obsessive about the King of Curses, however Sukuna doesn’t really feel the identical. As he has now taken over Megumi’s physique, Sukuna is keen to kill Tsumiki to make sure the boy can’t resume management of his destiny. This implies Sukuna is able to ship Yorozu and their host to the grave, however the cursed spirit is not going to go down with no battle.
