Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami has finally spoken out about the manga’s long-awaited final chapter.
The Jujutsu Kaisen manga debuted in 2018 and will end in September 2024. The manga begins with Yuji eating Sukuna’s finger and joining Jujutsu Tech High School. His ordinary life is turned upside down when he finds himself in the middle of the brutal world of curses.
The final arc, “Shinjuku Showdown”, focuses on the battle against Kenjaku and Sukuna. Thanks to the plans and efforts of the sorcerers, the villains are ultimately defeated. As the manga draws to a close, Jujutsu Kaisen focuses on the aftermath of the battle.
Chapter 269 spoilers have confirmed that Yuta is alive. Thanks to Rika, he has regained his own body. With no more villains to fight, Mei Mei wants to take down the three great clans.
Alongside Chapter 269, Gege Akutami shared a commentary on the final chapter.
The author wrote: “I’ve never drawn a final chapter before, so it feels new even though it’s ending.”
The King of Curses was defeated in Chapter 268 and the remaining chapters will focus on the conclusion by tying up the remaining loose ends.
Jujutsu Kaisen is his first manga series. The author continued the story after JJK 0 and it became a worldwide sensation after the anime adaptation. It is not yet known what the author plans to do after the end, but it goes without saying that fans all over the world are eagerly waiting for the end.
