Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Arc: Every New Character and the Main Villain, Explained

  • Confirmed new leads in Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo are Yuka Okkotsu and Tsurugi Okkotsu, according to the series’ own fandom wiki page.
  • Confirmed supporting characters tracked so far include Maru, Cross, Usami, an unnamed Simurian leader, and a character named Jabaloma.
  • Legacy names mentioned in the story include Kinji Hakari, Ryomen Sukuna, and Satoru Gojo, but being mentioned is not the same as being confirmed alive on the page.
  • Fan trackers report that Yuta Okkotsu and Maki died before Modulo’s current arc begins, though this comes from early reader tracking rather than an official character profile.
  • The main antagonist’s identity has not been confirmed in translated material. The setup so far centers on a conflict between sorcerers and an alien faction.
  • Naming differences across wikis and forums, like Val, Vol, and Yelvori, come down to romanization inconsistency, not separate characters.

You typed “jjk modulo characters” into Google and got three different stories. A Reddit thread arguing about who’s speaking behind a masked panel. A TVTropes page listing names that do not match the Reddit thread. A YouTube video guessing who died based on vibes.

That is not you being bad at reading manga. Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo is new, unofficial translations are inconsistent, and every fan tracker is filling in gaps with slightly different guesses. Nobody has organized this in one place yet, so we did it here.

This piece separates what is actually confirmed from what fans are inferring, names every character tracked so far, and answers the one question everyone actually wants: who is the villain, and is Gojo really dead.

What Is Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo, and Is It Actually Canon?

Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo is a follow-up story set after the events of the original Jujutsu Kaisen series, tracked and documented on the franchise’s own fandom wiki. It is treated as canon continuation material rather than fan fiction, based on how it is cataloged alongside the main series’ entries.

The biggest tonal shift readers notice right away is the introduction of an alien element into a series that was previously built entirely around curses born from human emotion. That is a genuine swing in direction, and it is part of why longtime readers are confused rather than just curious. If you need the ending context first, when Yuji killed Sukuna is a good place to fill that gap before jumping into Modulo.

It is cataloged as a direct sequel story with its own character roster, which is exactly why fans are trying to map who’s new and who’s returning.

JJK Modulo Characters: The Confirmed List

The confirmed new characters introduced in Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo are Yuka Okkotsu and Tsurugi Okkotsu, with a supporting cast that includes Maru, Cross, Usami, an unnamed Simurian leader, and a character named Jabaloma. This list reflects characters that have actually appeared on the page, not speculation about who might show up later.

NameStatusWhere They’re Tracked
Yuka OkkotsuConfirmed new leadFandom Wiki, Beebom
Tsurugi OkkotsuConfirmed new leadFandom Wiki, Beebom
MaruConfirmed supportingBeebom
CrossConfirmed supportingBeebom
UsamiConfirmed supportingBeebom
Simurian LeaderConfirmed, unnamedBeebom
JabalomaConfirmed supportingBeebom
Human TraffickerConfirmed role, unnamedBeebom

The shared surname is the reason fans immediately assume a family connection to Yuta Okkotsu, but no source we found states this outright. It is a reasonable read based on the name alone, and it is the most common theory circulating in fan discussions right now. Treat this as a strong fan reading rather than settled fact until an official statement shows up.

Why Do Fan Wikis Spell Character Names Differently? (Val vs. Vol vs. Yelvori)

This naming chaos comes from translation and romanization differences between fan trackers, not from multiple characters with similar names. TVTropes and Reddit threads covering Modulo show spelling variations like Val, Vol, and Yelvori for names that likely refer to the same person, simply transliterated differently by different readers working from raw Japanese text.

Every tracker is doing its own best guess at spelling, and none of them are coordinating with each other. If you keep running into a name that looks slightly different every time you search it, that inconsistency is almost always the explanation, not a sign you’re missing a character.

Who Is the Main Villain in JJK Modulo?

[Unconfirmed / Developing Story] The main antagonist’s exact identity has not been confirmed in any translated material we could verify. What is confirmed is the structural setup: a conflict between jujutsu sorcerers and an alien faction, with the unnamed Simurian leader positioned as a key figure on the opposing side.

That framing alone is a big departure for a series that spent its entire original run on curses generated by negative human emotion. Bringing in an alien faction changes the entire rulebook, and it is likely why so many fans are still arguing about who the “real” villain even is. Until a name gets confirmed in a legitimate translated chapter, treat any specific villain name circulating online as a guess.

Who Is Alive in JJK Modulo? Is Gojo Really Dead?

Satoru Gojo, Ryomen Sukuna, and Kinji Hakari have all been mentioned by name in Modulo, but being mentioned in the story is not the same thing as being confirmed alive on the page. Separately, fan trackers following early Modulo appearances report that Yuta Okkotsu and Maki have already died before the current arc’s events begin.

A character being name-dropped in dialogue, in a memory, or in passing reference does not tell you their current status. If a character has not actually appeared on-page doing something, their fate is technically still open, even if fans are treating a mention as confirmation.

Does Nobara Have Kids in JJK Modulo?

We could not verify a confirmed answer to this in any of the sourced material we reviewed. This question shows up constantly in search results and fan videos, but it appears to be circulating as unconfirmed speculation rather than something stated on the page.

What Powers Do the New JJK Modulo Characters Have?

Fan trackers describe Yuka Okkotsu as inheriting what they call the strongest technique introduced in Modulo so far, though this is fan-tracked discussion rather than an official stat sheet. Mahito’s power is described in some trackers as now operating within something referred to as “the Interstice of Souls,” framed as a stronger version of his prior curse ability from the original series.

Maru and Cross tend to get grouped together in the same strength conversations among trackers, though the specifics of their techniques are thinner in the sourced material available right now. There is no official character stat page for Modulo yet, so every strength comparison floating around online right now is reader interpretation, including the ones in this section.

Still Have a Specific JJK Modulo Question the Trackers Can’t Answer?

Because Modulo is brand new and scattered across scanlation trackers, Reddit threads, and fan wikis, plenty of specific questions genuinely don’t have a clean answer yet. A particular character’s exact fate, a precise power detail, or a name spelling might change entirely once an official translation catches up.

If you want the full manga catalog context rather than just the new arc, see Dr. Stone’s time skip cast, since sequel-era confusion like this is more common than people think. And if Modulo has you back in the anime headspace generally, our anticipated anime for 2026 breakdown is a natural next stop.

The Bottom Line on JJK Modulo

The most useful thing you can do with Modulo right now is separate confirmed page appearances from fan inference, because those two categories are getting blended constantly across search results. Yuka Okkotsu and Tsurugi Okkotsu are the confirmed new leads. Everything else, from the villain’s identity to Nobara’s family status, is either partially confirmed or actively unresolved.

Check back as more chapters get tracked and translated, since names, spellings, and character statuses in this specific corner of the internet change fast. For now, treat any single-source claim with a healthy amount of skepticism, including the ones in the video essays.

FAQ

Who are the main characters in JJK Modulo so far?

The confirmed leads are Yuka Okkotsu and Tsurugi Okkotsu. Confirmed supporting characters tracked across sources include Maru, Cross, Usami, an unnamed Simurian leader, and a character named Jabaloma. Legacy characters like Satoru Gojo, Ryomen Sukuna, and Kinji Hakari have been mentioned by name, but a mention does not confirm their current on-page status in the new story.

Is Gojo dead in JJK Modulo?

There is no confirmed answer available in translated material right now. Gojo has been mentioned by name in the story, but being mentioned is different from appearing on-page alive. Until a legitimately translated chapter shows him directly, his status should be treated as unresolved rather than assumed either way.

Does Nobara have kids in JJK Modulo?

This detail could not be verified in any sourced material reviewed for this piece. It circulates frequently in search results and fan discussion, but it appears to be speculation rather than a confirmed plot point. Treat any specific claim about this as unconfirmed until an official translated chapter addresses it directly.

Is JJK Modulo written by Gege Akutami?

The available source material we reviewed did not explicitly confirm the writer’s identity for Modulo. Because this detail matters for canon status and is easy to get wrong, we’re not stating an author name here without a verified source. If you find this confirmed in an official listing, treat it as more reliable than most fan tracker claims.

No source confirms a direct family connection, but the shared Okkotsu surname is the reason fans widely assume one exists. It is currently a fan theory, not a stated fact, so treat it as the leading interpretation rather than settled canon until the story addresses it directly.

Why do character names look different on every website I check?

This happens because Modulo is being read and translated by fans before any official English release exists. Different trackers romanize the same Japanese names differently, which is why you might see the same character called Val, Vol, or Yelvori depending on which site you’re on. It’s a translation inconsistency, not multiple characters.
