After the revelations in the previous chapter, Maru’s secret mission has finally been laid bare, shifting the tone of this spin-off dramatically.

The first three chapters of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo have introduced a unique narrative that combines the supernatural action of the main series with a new focus on alien-human coexistence.
Chapter 1 introduced the main trio: Yuka, Tsurugi, and Maru. While Maru’s alien origins were hinted at early, his true objective remained hidden. Their first mission brought friction as Maru hesitated to use his cursed technique.
Chapter 2 expanded on the alien threat, revealing Maru’s twin brother, Cross, who views humanity with disdain. The chapter also shed light on their shared cursed technique, a key reason for Maru’s reluctance to fight.
Chapter 3 served as the emotional core of the story so far. The team confronted a shark-shaped cursed spirit that turned out to be Osada, a former Jujutsu High student. The encounter with Toronoske the tiger became a metaphor for alien-human coexistence. Maru revealed his true mission — to observe whether humans and aliens could coexist — marking a turning point for the narrative.
The chapter closed on a hopeful note, with Tsurugi allowing Osada to raise a baby tiger, symbolizing the possibility of a shared future.
Chapter 4 is expected to build on the fragile trust established between Maru and Tsurugi. With Cross and the Simurian King watching from the shadows, the threat of war grows heavier. The next chapter could explore:
The Fallout of Maru’s Confession: By revealing his mission to Tsurugi, Maru risks alienating his own people. This could bring him into direct conflict with Cross.
Yuka’s Expanded Role: Yuka’s presence may become more significant as she mediates between the two sides.
The First Major Battle: After a relatively quiet Chapter 3, the upcoming chapter might finally introduce a stronger cursed spirit or a rogue curse user, setting the stage for the first large-scale fight of the spin-off.
Alien-Human Relations on the Brink: Despite Maru’s efforts, tensions may escalate as the Simurians consider launching a full-scale invasion if coexistence appears impossible.
Fans can expect Chapter 4 to balance intense action with deeper character development, continuing the series’ exploration of trust, identity, and coexistence.
The chapter will be officially available on Manga Plus and Viz Media’s Shonen Jump platform at no cost. Both platforms support simulpub, meaning fans around the globe can read the latest chapter as soon as it drops in Japan.
