Fans have long wait Megumi ’s restoration , hoping that Sukuna ’s hijacking of his body would n’t import the end for the brooding , condemnation - taming Word of " Sorcerer Killer " Fushiguro Toji . As it become out , chapter # 266 would renew Leslie Townes Hope for Megumi ’s survival of the fittest , and the way it would do so would bea definitive elude from the shadow of manga titanNaruto .
Creator Gege Akutami has made it clear thatJujutsu Kaisenis meant to beNaruto ’s opposite . Yuji and Megumi have parallels with Naruto and Sasuke , severally . Yuji mirror Naruto ’s undying finding and will to persevere , and plain , they ’re both problematic seal of incredibly strong force .
Megumi and Sasuke partake in a tragical fatherless backstory , a disaffected and unhesitating demeanour , and a portentous grasp over their respective ability . Both pairs are ( in different ways ) institute as rivals , butJujutsu Kaisenchapter # 266shows a vastly unlike approach that proves why Naruto struggle to save Sasuke .

Yuji Summons Incredible Empathy For Megumi
Yuji’s Awareness At A Critical Moment Brings Megumi Back From The Brink
If there ’s one common thread that unites Megumi and Sasuke now , given Megumi ’s dire berth , it’sa fatalistic response to Yuji ’s ( and Naruto ’s ) desire to bring them back — literally back to Konoha for Sasuke , and figuratively back into his own consistency for Megumi . Both Megumi and Sasuke feel obvious incredulity at the extent to which Yuji and Naruto would go for their own sake . However , chapter # 266 picture why Yuji ’s kinship with Megumi is different .
The last few chapters ofJujutsu Kaisenhave been notably meditative , as Yuji describes his renew horse sense of the import of life and dying . Yuji takes this to young heights , however , as he admits that because of his own strength , he hasalways found it unmanageable to identify with people whose context lead them to give up . Relating Megumi ’s bodily surrender to Sukuna to his own grandfather ’s struggle with lung cancer , Yuji has an exemplary moment of empathy as he glorify that he ca n’t reasonably expect Megumi to keep live .
Instead , in a semisweet turn , Yuji only offers Megumi his tearful sincerity:“it ’s lone without you , Fushiguro . “This earnest , unpretentious confession of Megumi ’s importance seems to have perfectly combined with Yuji ’s resounding empathy , and it conduce Megumi to start resisting Sukuna ’s control over his organic structure .
This was alsoonly possible because of Megumi ’s own earnestness . The chapter begins with Megumi describe his simple wish for a world where his sister and Yuji were happy , separate Yuji he ’s done enough and shine on the hopelessness of his situation . This directness of communication is refreshing come from the perspective ofNaruto . Naruto and Sasuke ’s seemingly unbreachable gulf emerges largely because of an unfitness to in effect commune , and both only really listen to another during their final showdown inNaruto Shippuden .
Gojo Satoru has always been a dark character but the late installment of Jujutsu Kaisen show he was never a Hero of Alexandria after all .
Yuji and Naruto’s Preoccupations Show Why Naruto Struggles With Sasuke
Yuji’s Grounded Maturity Opens Megumi Up While Naruto’s Idealism Failed To Reach Sasuke
Jujutsu KaisenandNarutoare starkly different in the perceived " maturity " of their theme and foundation ideals . This is n’t a fault withNaruto . Narutois found in messages that the unseasoned reader it aim can realise , which necessarily involve fully grown estimate and fewer worked up ramification . Kishimoto admit as such , as ( for example ) on ninja families :
Not limiting families by their blood relations seemed required to me . The most obvious representative of this is the intercourse between Naruto & Jiraiya . These two solitary beings , a hermit and an orphan , made the master / student relation work very well . It ’s very family - same . The word " family " , as most people realize it , is too circumscribed as far as I ’m concerned .
particularly since I ’m writing for minor who may or may not present the problem of parent divorcing .
[ mention corrected for grammar ]
By dividing line , Jujutsu Kaisenhas always tried for a spirited and more realistic glide slope , which appeals toviewers skewing on the older end of the shōnen demographic . One resultant role of this is thatNaruto ’s title reference isvery exclamatory about his broadly speaking moralistic ideals : protecting Konoha , becoming Hokage , and more general concepts like " friendly relationship " , " perseverance " , and " unity " . By contrast , Jujutsu Kaisendrives at a more mortal and contextual view of thing , emphasizing existential concepts like " worthy last " and the agonizingly individual circumstances that lead people to make their choice . This is hardly better exemplified thanin Gojo and Geto ’s backstory .
The problem with Naruto ’s idealistic worldview is thatideals are subjective and deep personal . When morals and ideals disagree sufficiently , idealistic monologue can fall on indifferent ears . For the most part , Naruto ’s ideals famously do n’t return on indifferent ears , and he ’s capable to succeed over unnumerable enemies just through rhetoric .

Sasuke clearly has respect for Naruto ’s shared orphan upbringing , evident as early as episode 3 of the original series . This foundational similarity in their rearing but total difference in their worldviews ( because of contextual , individual events ) is the basis for Naruto and Sasuke ’s total rivalry;it would n’t exist otherwise . However , it ’s also the matter which leads this contention to be basically insurmountable . For Sasuke , Naruto ’s high-mindedness seems unrealistic and undeservedly admiring of their circumstantial birthplace , especiallyfollowing the Five Kage Summit , when the true chronicle of the Uchiha clan is revealed .
Ultimately , Naruto ’s noble-mindedness clouds his ability to reach Sasuke , where Sasuke ’s full sensory faculty of deracination leads him to see Naruto ’s approach as , in a way of life , dehumanizing . It ’s not that Sasuke never sympathized with Naruto ’s unyielding idealism , either . intelligibly , after their final showdown , Naruto ’s ideals won in the end , even over Sasuke .
Yet , that ’s only after hundreds of chapter of failed communication and a mutual lack of empathy . This is by design , sinceKishimoto always " wanted the employment to stop with a climactic confrontation " between Naruto and Sasuke . By contrast , thesimple exchange of full sinceritybetween Yuji and Megumi shows howJujutsu Kaisendoes things otherwise , having a profound story wallop in go .
