🔥 What Happens in Chapter 236 — Summary & Spoilers

🔹 Final Moments & Afterlife Sequence

Chapter 236 begins with a sequence that looks like a flashback but quickly reveals itself to be more: Satoru Gojo finds himself talking with his old friend Suguru Geto (and other deceased comrades) in a sort of “afterlife” lounge. 

Gojo reflects on his battle with Ryomen Sukuna — admitting Sukuna was “incredibly strong,” even without using his full power. He confesses he gave everything he had, but that his strength, talent, cursed energy, and efforts still weren’t enough. 

He says that, despite losing, he feels some solace: “At least I died at the hands of someone stronger,” rather than by illness or an ignoble fate. 

Then Gojo bids farewell — to Geto, to friends like Kento Nanami, Yu Haibara, and others. 

In short: this segment appears to be Gojo’s internal reckoning, his acceptance of fate, and a final farewell — which heavily suggests that Gojo thinks he is already dead, or dying.

🔹 The Reality — What Happens in the Fight

We then return to “reality”: Gojo’s body is found — brutally bisected (cut in half), the result of a devastating attack from Sukuna. 

The reason: Sukuna used a strategy involving Mahoraga (a shikigami / cursed spirit) that had adapted to Gojo’s “Infinity” – Gojo’s space-manipulating technique that previously made him virtually invulnerable. When Mahoraga’s adaptation reached a certain point, it allowed an attack that would cut not just Gojo — but space itself, bypassing Infinity altogether. That attack cleaved Gojo’s body. 

After the fatal blow, Sukuna stands over Gojo’s remains and gives a chilling tribute: “You were magnificent, Satoru Gojo. I will never forget you.” 

The chapter ends with a new combatant stepping onto the battlefield — Hajime Kashimo — setting the stage for the next confrontation. 

🔹 The Verdict — Is Gojo Dead?

According to the chapter: yes — Gojo Satoru dies in Chapter 236. His body is severed; he accepted defeat; comrades mourn him. 

However: as with many dramatic manga deaths, some fans believe there remains a possibility for his return. The chapter leaves some symbolic/mystical threads (afterlife “airport”, conversations about “north vs south,” etc.) that spark speculation.

🧠 Fan Reception & Reactions (from Community / Reddit)

Many fans felt the chapter — and Gojo’s death — was a powerful, emotional send-off. One Redditor wrote:

> “With the leaks of chapter 236 … this is a fantastic chapter … this has made it one of my favourite chapters to this date.” 

Others criticized the execution, calling the death “off-screen,” sudden, and “anticlimactic,” especially given how Chapter 235 ended. Some felt the fight build-up didn’t deliver a satisfying conclusion. 

A recurring theme among dissenters: the perceived plot convenience. One wrote:

> “Gojo was winning in one panel, and then he got cut in half. A lot of people are comparing this to Yamamoto's death in Bleach … but Gojo was winning in one panel, then cut in half off-screen in the next.” 

Some fans remain hopeful. A few theories suggest symbolic cues (afterlife scenes, “north vs south”, eyes open at death) could hint at a possible comeback — though nothing is confirmed.

⚠️ On Leaks, Raw Scans & Spoiler Ethics

Because Chapter 236 attracted massive attention, spoiler leaks and raw scans circulated widely. Many fans read the summary above from such leaks. However:

Official releases are always via legitimate channels (e.g. the publisher’s platform).

Leaks and raw scans are often unauthorized and may violate copyright or distribution rules.

As such, many fan-communities avoid sharing raw scan links. One Reddit thread emphasized this with a call to keep leaks off public forums. 

If you care about respecting creators and supporting manga, the safest route is waiting for official publication.
