After the exciting reveal about Yuta Okkotsu’s current situation in the previous issue, fans are eagerly waiting for Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262. Many are searching everywhere for spoilers about the upcoming chapter. Unfortunately, there are no confirmed spoilers yet, as the spoiler process starts later in the release week and might be halted due to recent anti-piracy efforts in Japan.
However, fans can still expect certain events in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262 even without leaks. This includes the ongoing battle of Domain Expansions between Yuta (in Satoru Gojo’s body) and Ryomen Sukuna, which seems to be leading towards the climax of the fight against Sukuna.
In Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262, Yuta is expected to struggle in a Domain clash while learning the Limitless technique.

I didn't realize you were capable of going that far!!
YUTA OKKOTSU!!"
Ohh you know Sukuna is ENCHANTED by Yuta, who did smth not even Kenjaku was able to do. That's what it means for him to say Yuta’s full name #JJK261 pic.twitter.com/ZO8u3FzSRT
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 262 will likely start with the full manifestation of Unlimited Void and Malevolent Shrine, clashing like fans have seen before. We might see some panels showing the strain on Gojo and Sukuna’s faces as they battle for control, followed by a narrator’s explanation.
The narrator will probably explain that Yuta isn’t using Limitless or Unlimited Void as effectively as Gojo did, which is understandable. Sukuna notices this and plans to overpower Yuta with his Domain to end the fight quickly.
At this point, Yuji Itadori and Aoi Todo are expected to get involved. This should be possible because the clashing Domains don’t create a full barrier for Unlimited Void, and since Malevolent Shrine is barrierless, they should be able to target Sukuna during the clash.
Gege having each one of the two major characters with identity crisis: Gojo and Yuta, lose the soul and the other the body then combining what’s remaining is a level of sinister you’d think came from the darkest horror you could find and not a manga meant for teenagers. #JJK261 pic.twitter.com/lMGaebGcRa

It’s hard to predict exactly how Yuji and Todo will get involved, but they’ll likely focus on Yuji disrupting the connection between Sukuna’s soul and Megumi’s body. This should lower Sukuna’s Cursed Energy and his control over Reverse Cursed Technique, among other effects. The lack of control over Reverse Cursed Technique is crucial because the Domain clash will severely damage both Yuta’s and Sukuna’s brains.
However, this probably won’t make up for the skill gap between Sukuna and Yuta. The chapter might show Yuta losing this initial clash, getting caught in Malevolent Shrine’s range, and having to use Reverse Cursed Technique and Limitless to defend himself.
It’s possible that Yuta’s time is running out, hinted by a nosebleed indicating a serious brain issue. Yuji and Todo might notice this and try to help him, but Uraume could show up to secure Sukuna’s victory. This will likely lead to a flashback in the next issue, explaining how Uraume escaped from Kinji Hakari at the perfect time.
