Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 71 is a crossroads of mentorship and mistrust. This chapter unpacks what it means to teach—and whom we trust when the curtain falls.
In JJK Chapter 71, Satoru Gojo revisits his promise to protect Megumi, reaffirming the bond that began when he spared the boy from tutelage under the Zenin legacy. Simultaneously, Megumi and his classmates finally learn the identity of the traitor among them—Kokichi Muta (Mechamaru)—revealing his deception and the role he played in channeling intel to enemies inside Jujutsu High. Trust was never an option; it was a responsibility revealed too late.
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 71 doesn’t just reveal a spy—it reclaims promise. Gojo’s mentorship of Megumi isn’t a subplot—it’s the armor his students wear. Kokichi’s betrayal doesn’t end conflict—it defines the stakes. In this arc of deception and destiny, trust becomes priceless, and the cost of betrayal is only appreciated in hindsight.
To explore the aftermath of clan-shattering events, check out Chapter 236 for the emotional loss that reset the battlefield, Chapter 248 where Yuji and Yuta step up against Sukuna’s rising threat, and Chapter 223 where Gojo’s explosive return begins a new phase of war. You can also read Chapter 271 to see how domain battles intensify across multiple fronts.
