Chapter 8 of Modulo began with its first page with a line that asks its reader to wait for a minute before they continue with the chapter. The first page was like a warning directed to fans to prepare them for what was to come next.

Rather than continuing the story that was going on in Chapter 7, Gege took a different route and focused on giving us a flashback on two characters and their world. Interestingly, it is important to note that this instalment also had some breathtaking worldbuilding moments.

As the story shows us, Cross and Maru, as children on the planet of Samuria before it was destroyed, became the central figures of the story. Moreover, we were introduced to another overpowered character known as Dura. He was convinced to take care of these twins after they lost their parents.

Dura is shown to be an incredibly strong person, but equally very kind and empathetic. He planned to build a canal that would cause two civilizations to unite. Corss and Maru were put to work with him and help build this canal.

Cross was not on board with this idea as he felt Dura's philosophy was naive, and there was no concept of peace. But his brother Maru was more accepting and open to this idea. Eventually, after a few hiccups, everyone comes around to this idea and helps Dura build the canal.

The chapter was building itself to a wholesome moment where there was hope that everything would be okay, but then tragedy struck that causing the peace treaty to be in jeopardy.


What to expect from Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 9? (Speculative)

With Chapter 8 ending on a somber note, Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 9 is expected to build up on the tension. It seems like the flashback is far from over. If anything, this could be the start of the foundation that shows us how Cross and Maru's trauma shaped the way they approach life and their fate.

Early fan theories also suggest Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 9 will most likely show us the Callian Tragedy, the event that destroyed the alliance between the Romelians and the Disconte.

Another key expectation from Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 9 centers on the mysterious rock that their father once carried. What was initially dismissed as a sentimental keepsake may hold deeper meaning, possibly connected to cursed energy or even the cosmic origins of jujutsu itself

As Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 9 is set to release in a week, one thing is for sure that fans can expect heartbreak, revelation, and perhaps the defining tragedy that turns the brothers into the figures we know today. It could become a reminder to readers that sometimes the deepest curses aren’t born from power, but from loss.
