  • Jujutsu Kaisen is trending worldwide but fans aren’t happy – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen is trending worldwide but fans aren’t happy CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen is currently trending across the globe, thanks to the chapter 236 leaks. However, fans are still unhappy with everything that happened. Jujutsu Kaisen is currently following the battle of the strongest. The intense fight kept fans on the edge of their seats as they pondered over the outcome. Neither side showed signs of backing down, making each chapter extremely unpredictable. In chapter 235, Gojo blows up Shinjuku and everyone on the battlefield, including himself. After being forced into a corner, he uses an insanely powerful Hollow Purple and blows up Sukuna and Mahoraga along with himself. Therefore, Gojo’s victory was all but confirmed, and even Kusakabe was sure about it. However, before fans could celebrate for long, a major tragedy struck. The series is currently trending worldwide, but fans can’t find a reason to be happy about it. Jujutsu Kaisen trends worldwide after chapter 236 leaks Jujutsu Kaisen leaks confirm Gojo’s death in chapter 236. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Satoru Gojo contributes a lot to the series’ global popularity. He has every quality that Shonen fans adore: he’s a teacher, is unparalleled in battle, has an eccentric personality, and is kind enough to help anyone in need. Gojo may come off as arrogant at first, but he only shows off his superiority in front of his enemies – which isn’t necessarily bad. Therefore, it’s reasonable that his death deals a heavy blow to Jujutsu Kaisen fans worldwide. Nonetheless, people are all the more intrigued to find out what transpired in the battle of the strongest. The series is currently at the peak of its popularity, but fans are still mourning his tragic death. Apart from the shock, Gojo’s death is also disappointing, as many blame Gege for bad writing. While others simply mourn their favorite character’s death. Gojo fans celebrated his week after the release of chapter 235. After weeks and months of worrying, they finally breathe a sigh of relief as their favorite character wins his most difficult battle ever. However, the upcoming chapter will take a drastic turn as Gojo dies off-screen. The chapter doesn’t even show what exactly happened to him. Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236 will be officially released on September 24. You can read the spoilers here.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Is there any character stronger than Satoru Gojo? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Is there any character stronger than Satoru Gojo? CrunchyrollSatoru Gojo has the reputation of being the strongest character in Jujutsu Kaisen. However, in the entirety of the series, has there really never been any character stronger than him? Ever since the beginning of the series, Jujutsu Kaisen has put Satoru Gojo on a pedestal by calling him the strongest sorcerer alive. Although he is ranked a special grade, Gojo is in a whole other league than them. He doesn’t even consider legendary characters such as Sukuna to be a threat. Although Gojo admits that dealing with Sukuna may be tiring, he will defeat the latter. The Jujutsu instructor has always been rather arrogant, though he has the strength to back that up. The second season may be featuring his past arc now, but the manga has come a long way. With the manga about to end sometime this year, the series has pretty much introduced all the characters. However, even now, is there really no other character in Jujutsu Kaisen stronger than Satoru Gojo? Satoru Gojo remains the strongest character in Jujutsu Kaisen until the very end The reason Satoru is unparalleled in battle is that he never runs out of cursed energy. Although any member of the Gojo Clan can inherit the “Limitless,” only one with Six Eyes can fully unlock its potential. Having been born with special eyes, Gojo is the pride of his clan. The previous clan member to have been born with those eyes was over four hundred years ago. That said, when it comes to pure talent, Yuta is better than Gojo in various ways. Additionally, since Sukuna is not a human being, he has more physical strength. In the first season, when Yuji “died,” Gojo expressed his anger towards the elders. He also said Yuta, Yuji, and Hakari had the potential to be on par with him. Gojo only said “on par” instead of “surpass” because he will remain the strongest unless there’s another sorcerer with Six Eyes. Luckily, because Six Eyes are special, two people can never possess it at the same time. The manga is currently featuring Gojo’s battle with Sukuna, which fans have been anticipating ever since the beginning of the series. The battle of the strongest is currently anyone’s game now since no side is showing any weakness. That said, Gojo is enjoying it, knowing full well he will win. Therefore, despite so many characters appearing in Jujutsu Kaisen, none could be stronger than Satoru Gojo. Jujutsu Kaisen can be currently streamed on Crunchyroll.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen is reuniting Gojo and Geto soon, and fans can’t keep calm – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen is reuniting Gojo and Geto soon, and fans can’t keep calm Gege Akutami/MAPPAJujutsu Kaisen fans are excited over the imminent reunion of Gojo and Geto, as the characters’ voice actors will appear together in a special program soon. Jujutsu Kaisen currently holds the world record for being the most in-demand animated series in the world. A huge portion of its popularity is thanks to the characters and their dynamics — especially Gojo and Geto and their ill-fated friendship. Despite the love they receive from the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom, Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto are both dead in the manga. This is quite upsetting for their fans, given the tragic fates they both suffered. However, the two friends will reunite once more; not in the story, but in real life. According to recent reports, Gojo and Geto’s voice actors Yuichi Nakamura and Takahiro Sakurai will appear together on a special Jujutsu Kaisen program on May 19, 2024. The two voice actors are expected to unveil some news about the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash video game. The game is about to get the new ‘Hidden Inventory’ DLC. Nakamura and Sakurai will also look back at the anime and discuss their characters. Fans are very excited to have the two characters back, even if it’s just the voice actors. “I’ve been waiting for this for so long,” commented a user on X. Though many fans are disappointed with the Cursed Clash, they are excited over the Gojo and Geto reunion, writing, “Satosugu will save this game hehe.” Another user commented, “Sakurai is free!!! Now Nakamura won’t be the only one praising Geto as if he were his favorite wife (he praises Geto even more than Gojo), now Sakurai will finally tell more about his character.” Nakamura and Sakurai are both prominent names in the industry. Nakamura has voiced popular characters like Kuroo from Haikyuu!! and Hawks from My Hero Academia. Sakurai, on the other hand, is the voice of Giyu from Demon Slayer and Ayame from Fruits Basket. With how their characters died, it’s unlikely readers will ever get to see the two of them interact again in the story. So, this is the closest they will get to a Gojo and Geto reunion.

  • Nobara’s fate in Jujutsu Kaisen explained: Is she dead? – Dexerto

    Nobara’s fate in Jujutsu Kaisen explained: Is she dead? Gege Akutami/MAPPADespite being one of the main characters of Jujutsu Kaisen, Nobara’s fate was left ambiguous for a long time, making fans wonder if she was dead. Nobara Kugisaki was introduced pretty early in Jujutsu Kaisen as a first-year student. She came from a jujutsu family and was a classmate of Yuji and Megumi. She’s also one of the few sorcerers to have experienced a Black Flash. However, her role in the series is pretty limited, only until the Shibuya Incident Arc. During this arc, Nobara came to Shibuya with other sorcerers and eventually faced Mahito. After being defeated by the curse, her status stayed unconfirmed for a long time. Nobara’s mysterious circumstance makes her unique in Jujutsu Kaisen, as the manga never shies away from revealing major character deaths. The ambiguity has sparked countless theories about her return until her fate is finally confirmed in Chapter 267. Is Nobara dead in Jujutsu Kaisen? Nobara is alive in Jujutsu Kaisen. Nobara’s status has remained one of the biggest mysteries in Jujutsu Kaisen. After her fatal encounter with Mahito, she disappeared from the story, even though there was no confirmation of her death. However, after Chapter 265, fans were convinced she didn’t survive her wounds in Shibuya. This is revealed to be just the perception of Yuji in Chapter 267. In the chapter, we see the sorcerers’ final contingency plan against Sukuna. They’ve hidden the ancient sorcerer’s last finger as the final chip. When Sukuna was weakened enough after multiple battles, we bring out Nobara to use her Resonance on the last finger. Thanks to this, the villain receives a huge blow, allowing Yuji to attack with his delayed punch and ultimately defeat him with Black Flash. The chapter also features a heartwarming moment between Yuji and Nobara. After she reveals herself to be alive, she uses the same word Yuji used when he revealed himself not dead during the Kyoto Goodwill Event: “OPP”. It’s an adorable callback to their early days of friendship. Nobara’s supposed death is a lesson for Yuji While Nobara appears for a short while in Jujutsu Kaisen, her supposed death serves as an important lesson for Yuji. Before everything happened, he thought he’d have a good death if he fulfilled his role in life and saved as many people as possible. However, after what happened to Nobara, he had to change his view. She was as old as him and didn’t live enough to fulfill her ‘role’ (that was what he thought before he found her alive). Yet, that doesn’t diminish the life she led and how precious it was. Her fate also motivates his pursuit of eradicating the world of curses. His rage and bloodlust for Mahito were also influenced by this. But more than anything, losing her has made him more determined to save Megumi at all costs. That’s why Yuji offers to spare Sukuna’s life and even become his vessel just to get the ancient sorcerer out of Megumi’s body, despite knowing that Sukuna is a mass murderer and pure evil. Though Nobara comes back from the dead, it’s divided the fandom in two. While many are happy to have their favorite character back, a lot of readers are also complaining about how clichéd this twist is. Bringing her back so late and have her play such a big role in Sukuna’s defeat when she wasn’t even very strong is decision that’ll face controversies for some time.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Is Gojo vs Sukuna worth the hype? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Is Gojo vs Sukuna worth the hype? CrunchyrollThe Jujutsu Kaisen manga is currently featuring the highly anticipated Gojo vs Sukuna, the final battle between the strongest. However, does the fight live up to all its hype? The two strongest characters of Jujutsu Kaisen, Gojo and Sukuna, maybe on different sides, but they have a lot in common. They’re both the most mighty warriors of their era and have the same superiority complex because of that. Furthermore, they’re both enjoying their showdown more than anyone. The fight between these two was foreshadowed when Gojo first introduced Sukuna in the early part of the story. However, a lot happened since then, and Gojo was sidelined because of getting sealed. Meanwhile, Sukuna had his own plans regarding Megumi Fushiguro. Now that the final showdown has started, it appears that the series will take a while to announce the victory. The battle has divided the fandom in two, half who hope for Gojo’s victory and the other half who believe the worst might happen. However, is Gojo vs Sukuna in Jujutsu Kaisen worth all the hype? Gojo vs Sukuna has just the right amount of thrill and suspense in Jujutsu Kaisen Despite the battle being in its starting phase, it has just the right amount of thrill and suspense. While Gojo is confident about his victory as usual, Sukuna has resorted to underhanded means just to defeat the strongest sorcerer alive. In such a situation, the outcome of the battle looks blurry. Ever since the battle between Gojo and Sukuna began in Jujutsu Kaisen, they both have been evenly matched. Regardless of the technique, they both already have countermeasures. Furthermore, the fight scenes are well-drawn and have no distractions, with unnecessary flashbacks that are common in the Shonen genre. Since manga is often black and white, the fight scenes will be difficult to understand if drawn poorly. However, all the characters are watching the fight and discussing the techniques that are otherwise difficult for the readers to comprehend just by reading the action panels. The characters also help analyze who has the upper hand in that exact moment. Therefore, despite both of them using complex techniques, it’s easy to figure out what’s happening. All in all, Gojo vs Sukuna is certainly living up to all its hype, and it’s only going to get better going forth. Gege Akutami has also announced the delay in the manga ending, which means we can expect the fight to go on for a bit longer. The recent update we have about the fight is Sukuna using his trump card, Mahoraga, against Gojo. Mahoraga is the reason Sukuna became interested in possessing Megumi’s body in the first place. It was all for the sake of defeating Gojo. With how things stand, Gojo will have difficulty defeating the monstrous Shikigami. Jujutsu Kaisen can currently be streamed on Crunchyroll and Netflix.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen image teases Yuji’s upcoming fate – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen image teases Yuji’s upcoming fate CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen has been harsh on Yuji lately, but finally, a key visual by Gege Akutami features him in a relaxing mood. The image made fans think that the author is hinting toward the upcoming fate of our protagonist. Jujutsu Kaisen is the most-talked-about manga series at the moment- thanks to Yuta and Yuji vs. Sukuna. Yuji never got his share of fame despite being the lead character. However, witnessing the events of the recently released chapter changed our perception for the boy. Even though Yuta had a hard time with Sukuna in the conflict, he could not have been able to tackle the potent enemy without Yuji’s help. For now, saving Megumi from Sukuna is the biggest task Yuji and Yuta have to complete. However, Chapter 251 shows that Megumi doesn’t want to live as Sukuna uses his body to kill several sorcerers, including the one he loves the most, i.e. Gojo. And he couldn’t take this pain, so he wanted everything to end forever. After realizing this devastating thing, Yuta and Yuji’s motivation to win collapsed. Sukuna attacks the duo with the same technique that helped him defeat the mighty Gojo. Even though Yuji received severe damage following the intense attack, the chapter has yet to reveal the status of our hero. Now, a shocking image has surfaced online, hinting at Yuji’s fate. Jujutsu Kaisen’s key visual features Yuji alongside Choso Jujutsu Kaisen’s new image by Akutami features Choso, Yuji, and Eso sitting on a wine-colored couch while the ugly monster Kechizu stands behind them. The image sees a purple background and is captioned ‘Blood Brothers, LLC’. While most JJK fans already know how Yuji is connected with the evil brothers, several are still unaware of the entire matter. So, for the unacquainted, it might feel disgusting but Yuji’s father conceived him with a woman who was serving as a vessel to Kenjaku at that time. Hence, Yuji is Kenjaku and Jin Itadori’s biological son. Additionally, Kenjaku is also the father of Death Paintings, so considering that Yuji is related to nine evil curses. In the intriguing key visual, Yuji’s costume makes him resemble Sukuna and one of the Reddit users has also commented, “The clothes that Yuji is wearing in this art remind me a little of Sukuna’s clothes when he was still trapped inside Itadori’s mind. Could this be a foreshadowing that gege gave us?” Another one says “Yuji is Kenjaku’s Frankenstein monster. The result of a crazed experiment. Yuji is the actual “human earthworm” that he ironically likes to watch.” Several fans find the image the hardest to digest. We are yet to know how the story of JJK will be shaped and what things will be like for Yuji. However, the fans have already started seeing the latest picture of Yuji with the curses as a foreshadowing by the author.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: 5 iconic scenes Gege Akutami recreated – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: 5 iconic scenes Gege Akutami recreated CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami often redraws panels or recreates scenes with different characters, so here’s a look at all five of them. Jujutsu Kaisen is one of the best anime shows going at the moment. The manga, from Gege Akutami, is currently in its final stretch as the sorcerers engage in the final battle against Sukuna. The fight is brutal as the King of Curses shows no signs of backing down. Sukuna is an embodiment of disaster, who appears to have no weaknesses and has an unimaginable level of cursed energy. Nonetheless, the sorcerers are relentless and won’t stop unless they’ve dealt with the biggest threat to humanity. The story is unconventional on many levels, riddled with puzzles and hidden meanings. Gege Akutami often draws parallels between certain characters or scenarios. These parallels help with drawing out the similarities between these characters and their roles. 1. Kashimo asks the same question as Geto Chapters 78 and 237 Sukuna and Gojo are two sides of the same coin. They’re different and yet similar in many ways. While Gojo is the “honored one,” the King of Curses is the “disgraced one.” These two are the strongest and yet the loneliest people. Gojo is only the strongest sorcerer of the modern era, but Sukuna is the strongest in history. Kashimo asking Sukuna the same question Geto asked Gojo is a clear indication of how much the author wants to draw similarities between them. During their confrontation in Shinjuku, Geto asks Gojo, “Are you the strongest because you’re Satoru Gojo? Or are you Satoru Gojo because you’re the strongest?” The scene happens during the separation of the strongest duo. The question asks if the person became the strongest sorcerer or was simply born that way. Kashimo asks the very same question to Sukuna while challenging him to a duel. Although the words maybe different, but the meaning is all the same. 2. Gojo and Geto swapped with Takaba and Kenjaku Chapters 77 and 243 Chapter 77 cover is a fan-favorite panel, which contrasts with the context of the chapter. While the cover features the duo together, the chapter marks Geto’s mental struggle before the separation of the strongest duo. Geto talks with Yuki about the curses and if there’s any way to change the world. In the end, he makes his choice and decides to kill all the non-sorcerers. In the next chapter, the two best friends officially part ways. In Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 243, Gege Akutami recreates the scene with Kenjaku and Takaba. Takaba is supposed to distract Kenjaku, but the entire fight becomes a comedy show. Even the mangaka confirmed featuring the characters in opposite positions. Initially, Takaba is standing where Gojo should be. But they stand on opposite sides as the chapter continues. 3. The parallels between the deaths of Higuruma and Nanami Chapters 120 and 247 Kento Nanami and Hiromi Higuruma are both extremely selfless characters. It’s ironic that Gege draws parallels between their deaths, as these two people not only chose to sacrifice themselves but also had major impacts on Yuji’s life. In the Shibuya Incident Arc, after suffering from Jogo’s attack, Nanami could’ve easily gone to Shoko and sought treatment. Although his injuries were brutal, he still had the energy to walk through the station. However, he chooses to stay on the battlefield and look for Megumi, who has been taken away by Toji. Up till the end, he only thought about the young sorcerers. He knew how much his death would sadden Yuji. Hence, before dying, he made sure to bid his farewell to Yuji with a smile and entrust him with his will. Higuruma, on the other hand, believed he must accomplish his goal, even if it meant sacrificing himself. He dies at Sukuna’s hands as planned after confiscating his cursed tool. In the same way as Nanami, Higuruma also entrusts his will to Yuji. 4. The similarity between Maki vs Sukuna and Toji vs Gojo Chapters 70 and 251 If we’re talking about recreating iconic scenes in Jujutsu Kaisen, we cannot miss out on the insane moments when the “defective” Zenins went toe-to-toe with the strongest sorcerers. As Yuta and Yuji lose against Sukuna, Maki joins the battlefield, impaling Sukuna from behind in the same way Toji did with Gojo. The reason neither Sukuna nor Gojo can sense their presence is that Maki and Toji have no cursed energy. The scene not only draws out a parallel between Sukuna and Gojo, but also between Maki and Toji. Ever since awakening her true powers after Mai’s death, Maki has been compared with Toji, who both share the same Heavenly Restriction. Maki always had the potential as Toji, but Mai’s existence put a lid on her powers. In Chapter 251, Maki makes the same entrance as Toji, confirming that she’s the next opponent of the King of Curses. She also uses her Soul Split Katana to separate Megumi from him. 5. The strongest sorcerer and the kindest sorcerer Volume 10 extra panel and Chapter 253 & 254 First grade is the highest rank that can be given to any Jujutsu sorcerer. Of course, there are certain people, like Gojo and Yuta, who don’t fall into any category. Thus, they’re ranked “special.” During the final battle against the strongest, Sukuna defeats every sorcerer one by one, leaving Kusakabe the last one standing. Chapter 253 begins with an interview-like scene, asking Nanami, Gojo, Mei Mei, and Kusakabe about the strongest first-grade sorcerer. The scene continues in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 254, Nanami, Gojo, and Mei Mei talk about Kusakabe’s strength. They have different interpretations of his strength, but they all agree that he’s the “kindest.” The scene is similar to “Who is Satoru Gojo to you” from the extra panel of Volume 10. Sorcerers and students express their different thoughts about Gojo, but all agree that he’s the strongest. MAPPA knows how much fans love this panel, and it adapts it in Season 2 Episode 9. It happens just before Gojo is sealed inside the Prison Realm. For more from Jujutsu Kaisen, check out the list of all Jujutsu Kaisen character deaths and the best anime like Jujutsu Kaisen.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 238 hypes up fans with favorite character’s return – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 238 hypes up fans with favorite character’s return CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen chapter 238 spoilers hype up fans with the next round of battle against the strongest. Here’s a look at who will return back into action. Jujutsu Kaisen’s highly-anticipated battle of the strongest has already ended. After Gojo’s death, the fight is now a battle against the strongest as the jujutsu society must gather all its might to defeat the King of Curses. However, defeating the strongest sorcerer in history is by no means an easy task. Even Satoru Gojo, the one hailed as the strongest sorcerer alive, was no match against Sukuna. Gojo’s tragic death doesn’t bode well for the sorcerers. As soon as Gojo dies, Kashimo jumps onto the battlefield. However, he is no match against the King of Curses despite having an extremely powerful innate technique. As such, a fan-favorite character enters the battlefield in hopes of defeating Sukuna. Warning: this article contains major spoilers from the upcoming chapter 238 of Jujutsu Kaisen. Which fan-favorite character returns in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 238? According to the leaks, Yuji Itadori enters the battlefield by the end of Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 238. It’s been far too long since fans have seen their favorite protagonist in action. With the world being in chaos, characters such as Yuta, Gojo, Sukuna, and many more end up stealing the protagonist’s spotlight. Ever since Sukuna has taken over Megumi’s body, Yuji’s role in the story has significantly diminished. That said, he is still fans’ beloved protagonist. Like other sorcerers, Yuji has witnessed Gojo’s fight from the sidelines. Among all his students, Gojo was the closest to Yuta and Yuji. With Yuji and Gojo having similar personalities, fans have witnessed some of the most heartwarming moments between the two. Therefore, there’s no question that Yuji will be again heartbroken seeing his beloved Sensei die so brutally. The series doesn’t feature much reaction from other characters after Gojo’s death. However, we do see the heartwrenching expressions from Yuji and Yuta. In Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 238, another character dies as Kashimo falls victim to Sukuna’s unparalleled strength. As such, Yuji jumps into the battlefield along with Hiromi Higuruma. As Yuji enters the battlefield, he bites his arm, and we briefly see long nails – similar to Sukuna’s fingers. After Sukuna took over Megumi’s body, Yuji is no longer a vessel, so his full strength hasn’t been revealed yet. The series has to unravel a lot of mysteries regarding Yuji’s birth and techniques. Sukuna has never considered Yuji a threat, but that might change, considering how Kenjaku holds the young sorcerer in high regard. Fans are already anticipating some crazy power-up and revelation centering on the protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen. Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 238 will officially release on October 8.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How was Gojo sealed? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How was Gojo sealed? CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen finally released the much-awaited Episode 9 of Season 2, which, sadly, featured our beloved Gojo getting sealed in the Prison Realm. Gojo is the strongest sorcerer in JJK, so every fan is wondering how Kenjaku managed to seal the “Honored One.” Gojo is right now one of the most-talked-about anime characters in the community. That’s because both Jujutsu Kaisen manga and the anime are focusing on this character, and not in a good way. Without spoiling anything, let’s just say that Gojo isn’t having a good time in the manga series, and things aren’t that different in the anime series as well. Kenjaku, Jogo, and other curses were holding back their heinous plans for the humans, and the sole reason for that was their fear of Gojo. But now, with Gojo gone, every fan wonders what fate will befall upon humans and other beloved characters. However, more than that, every fan wishes to know how exactly Gojo got sealed in the Prison Realm. How was Gojo sealed in the Prison Realm? In the previous episode, we saw Jogo, Hanami, Mahito, and, of course, Geto, leading Gojo to the station. These curses know that Gojo is powerful enough to kill them without breaking a sweat. So, they trap countless humans inside the station, not because they think that Gojo will be in any way impacted by seeing the countless non-sorcerers die, but to prevent him from unleashing his Unlimited Void instead. On top of that, Mahito unleashes several transfigured humans on the station to distract Gojo. These curses knew that if Gojo launched his Unlimited Void, it would be their end. So, they thought that if they surrounded Gojo with humans, he wouldn’t use this technique, as the minds of the humans wouldn’t be able to handle it. Gojo knew this as well, and he launched the Unlimited Void anyway, but only for 0.2 seconds. Staying in the Unlimited Void for 0.2 seconds was enough for Gojo to make the curses unconscious for several seconds, and within 299 seconds, Gojo killed around 1000 transfigured spirits. However, Gojo didn’t exactly win. As the sorcerer was breathing heavily after killing those spirits, he saw a cursed object lying in front of him: the Prison Realm. At the start of the episode, Geto explained that Gojo needs to be within 4 meters of the Prison Realm for one minute. At the time, it seemed like a difficult task; however, Kenjaku later revealed that the “One minute” he’s talking about is Gojo’s brain time, not the real-world time. Gojo saw the Prison Realm, but he couldn’t stay out of its radius because, at the same time, Kenjaku appeared behind him. Kenjaku was wearing Geto’s body, and since for Gojo his beloved friend was dead, seeing Geto shook him to his core. Gojo was obviously stunned after seeing Geto’s face after all these years, and by the time he realized that this wasn’t Geto, that one minute was over. In the end, Prison Realm got hold of Gojo.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How to watch Sukuna vs Mahoraga Blu-ray version – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How to watch Sukuna vs Mahoraga Blu-ray version CrunchyrollThe new Blu-ray version of Sukuna and Mahoraga’s fight in Jujutsu Kaisen has impressed fans yet again – so here’s how you can watch Sukuna vs Mahoraga on Blu-ray. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is one of the best anime of 2023, winning several Crunchyroll Anime Awards this year. The franchise has just released the Blu-ray DVDs of the second season, and fans are baffled by the extended fight in the most controversial episode of the season. The Blu-ray version has fixed Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 17, which is by far the most controversial episode of the series. Although MAPPA’s poor work enraged fans every week, the news about the Sukuna vs. Mahoraga episode being an unfinished version was extremely surprising. As Mahoraga is one of the strongest characters Sukuna defeated, fans were quite disappointed with the unfinished version. The fight scene is incredible, bolstered by fast-paced choreography. It currently ranks second on the IMDb episode list. However, fans couldn’t help but notice how unpolished it looked despite the series being one of the best anime from Studio MAPPA. Thankfully, the Blu-ray version has an extended version of the most amazing Jujutsu Kaisen fight in the anime. How to watch Blu-ray version of Sukuna vs Mahoraga fight The new version of Sukuna vs Mahoraga is in the Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Volume 6 Blu-ray. However, it has only been released in Japan so far. The DVDs also don’t have subtitles yet. In the meantime, you can watch a comparison video created by EzQuart on YouTube. Additionally, earlier this month, the official website of Jujutsu Kaisen announced that the Blu-ray & DVD volumes 4 & 5 will have a special screening in Japan for one week from March 29. The screening will include Episodes 17, 18, 19, and 20 of the second season. The screening will be held only in Japanese theatres. There will be a total of eight volumes of Blu-ray of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2. The first two volumes feature the Hidden Inventory Arc, while the rest of them are the Shibuya Incident Arc. As of now, the volumes are only being released in Japan. Volumes 1 to 7 have already been released, while Volume 8 will come out on May 22, 2024. As the Blu-rays have only been released in Japan, there is no subbed version yet. We’re still awaiting a global release date. We will update this space once we have more information. Why does Sukuna fight Mahoraga in Jujutsu Kaisen? Sukuna fights Mahoraga in Jujutsu Kaisen to save Megumi Fushiguro’s life. As a powerful and unexorcized Shikigami, Mahoraga is about to kill Megumi, his summoner. However, Sukuna’s interference prevents it from killing Megumi and leads to the Sukuna vs. Mahoraga fight. Megumi is in a precarious position in the Shibuya Incident Arc. After fighting Jogo, Sukuna senses Megumi’s life is in danger as the young sorcerer summons Mahoraga. Mahoraga is an unexorcized Shikigami, so summoning it puts Megumi’s life in jeopardy. However, Megumi is willing to sacrifice himself to defeat Haruta. Nonetheless, Sukuna interferes and saves Megumi’s life for his future plans. However, since Mahoraga can adapt to any attack, Sukuna uses large-scale techniques along with Domain Expansion. Mahoraga is defeated, but the entire Shibuya ward is also destroyed, killing thousands. This is by far the biggest tragedy in the story, and Sukuna is behind it. What theme plays as Sukuna and Mahoraga fight? The rousing theme that plays in the fight between Sukuna and Mahoraga is called Malevolent Shrine. The theme is named after Sukuna’s Domain Expansion. It is part of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2’s official soundtrack and is composed by Yoshimasa Terui. While there is no news on the global release dates of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2’s Blu-ray DVDs yet, they are expected to be announced soon. Considering Jujutsu Kaisen’s world record as the most in-demand animated series, it’s safe to assume that the world is eagerly waiting to see the better version of Sukuna vs. Mahoraga.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How tall is Satoru Gojo? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How tall is Satoru Gojo? CrunchyrollSatoru Gojo is not only one of the most popular characters in Jujutsu Kaisen but also the tallest – so here’s exactly how tall he is. Jujutsu Kaisen‘s most beloved character is Satoru Gojo, who always appears as a happy-go-lucky eccentric Jujutsu instructor. He is the strongest sorcerer of the modern era and is the user of the legendary Six Eyes. Every few centuries, a child with Six Eyes is born in the Gojo Clan. Since the power is so rare and valuable, no one can even compare it to the level of strength he has been born with. Gojo’s birth altered the very balance of the world. The decline of the Jutusu world halted with just a mere child, and the curse users weren’t able to commit crimes anymore freely. The curses’ increasing strength was also because of Gojo’s existence. As such, the overall quality of Jujutsu sorcerers significantly increased over the years. Because the people from the modern era in Jujutsu Kaisen were weak, Gojo’s birth was the turning point. How tall is Satoru Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen? Satoru Gojo’s height is 6’3″ (over 190 cm) in Jujutsu Kaisen. He is one of the series’s tallest characters and almost the same as Suguru Geto and Aoi Todo. However, Gojo’s spiky hair makes him look taller than he is. He can also be intimidating at first, but he is playful around his students or colleagues, so they warm up around him soon enough. The only characters taller than him are Masamichi Yaga, who is almost 192 cm, and Panda, who is almost 201 cm. Jujutsu Kaisen is not only popular for its complex power system and incredible story but also for its character design. A lot of the characters are extremely good-looking, and Gojo stands atop them. He is the heartthrob of many anime fans worldwide. 2023 was a thrilling yet depressing year for Gojo fans. The anime’s second season debuted in July 2023 and was divided into two cours. The first course featured his high school years following Geto’s downfall and Gojo’s struggle to deal with the cursed world. Meanwhile, the manga marked his return from the Prison Realm in April 2023, and he declared the battle against the strongest. The fight continued for several months, which ended in Gojo’s defeat in September.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Sukuna kill Gojo? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Sukuna kill Gojo? CrunchyrollThe strongest sorcerer dies off-screen, leaving many to wonder what really happened. However, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 255 finally reveals how Sukuna killed Gojo. Jujutsu Kaisen manga shocked the entire fandom with Gojo’s death in September 2023. Gojo has always been one of the most popular characters in the series, and popularity only skyrocketed in 2023. With his return to the manga and the heartbreaking flashback arc in the anime, Gojo touched the hearts of many fans. However, Chapter 236 features the moment fans have been dreading for so long. The Battle of the Strongest ends with Gojo’s defeat. It all happens too suddenly, and it doesn’t give fans the chance to process the tragic loss. After all, Chapter 235 had all but confirmed his victory. What’s even worse is that Gojo dies off-screen, so no one knows the details of his death. Although the series has dropped bits and pieces of information regarding the defeat of the strongest sorcerer of the modern era, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 255 finally explains how Sukuna killed Gojo. Warning: This article contains spoilers from the manga! How did Sukuna kill Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen? According to Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 255, Sukuna used a Binding Vow to use a World Cutting Slash against Gojo. In Chapter 236, Sukuna explains that instead of directly attacking Gojo, Mahoraga targeted the space around him. Therefore, Gojo’s Infinity isn’t valid as long as he is present in that space where Mahoraga can literally cut off anything. As a result, Gojo and that space are cut in half. In chapter 238, Sukuna uses his “Dismantle” against Kashimo, and the latter instantly figures out that this technique ended Gojo’s life. However, some information regarding Gojo’s defeat is still missing. In Chapter 255, the narrator explains that Sukuna needs to use a hand sign called “Enmaten” to activate the world cutting slash. The same hand sign is used for the Malevolent Shrine. However, in Chapter 235, one of Sukuna’s arms is cut off after taking a direct hit from Gojo’s final Hollow Purple. Hence, the King of Curses uses a Binding Voww to use the technique without hand signs. At that time, Sukuna had yet to transform into his original form. So, after incarnating in his true form, he can use both the hand sign and the incantation to activate the world-cutting slash. Additionally, he also needs to set the direction for the slash with his hands. It’s one of the many reasons why Sukuna’s true form is absolutely terrifying.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How strong is Mahoraga? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How strong is Mahoraga? NetflixJujutsu Kaisen universe is full of powerful entities, be it the good, noble, or evil ones – and one such entity is the shikigami Mahoraga, who helped Sukuna not only defeat but also kill Gojo. So, let’s find out how strong it is. The fierce battle between Gojo and Sukuna has come to an end, and we have lost the fan-favorite character Gojo forever. However, we feel that if Mahoraga hadn’t been in the picture, Sukuna and Gojo’s fight would have lasted longer. Yes, we know Sukuna is the most powerful curse in existence, but we also can’t doubt the powers and abilities of the strongest sorcerer. Gojo has been in a tough spot both in the ongoing anime series and the manga. In the former, Gojo is seen getting sealed in the prison realm, while the latter shows him getting killed brutally. So, do you want to know how powerful is the Shikigami that killed our main protagonist’s mentor in the manga? If yes, then be with us as we dive deeper into the details. Jujutsu Kaisen: Mahoraga’s powers and abilities explained The Zenin Clan in Jujutsu Kaisen‘s world is believed to come with the 10-shadow technique. This technique is one of the most deadly techniques in the world as it gives the user the ability to summon a potent shikigami and use it in any battle on their behalf. Mahoraga is considered the most dangerous and uncontrollable shikigami that stems from the aforementioned system. Whenever a user wants to summon Mahoraga, they must chant, “With this treasure, I summon…” by making a hand sign and then lifting the hands in the air. After that, out of nowhere, the humanoid monster starts appearing. His huge appearance is good enough to reveal his strengths. Also, it is impossible to come under one’s control entirely, and that’s one of the reasons why it has not been summoned that frequently by the Zenin family. In fact, Mahoraga’s potential was even feared by its summoner, although that wasn’t the case with Sukuna. What makes Mahoraga so powerful? Mahoraga comes with two things that make him invincible: one is the eight-handled wheel that floats above his head, and the second one is the blade on his forearm, specifically known as the Sword of Extermination. Whenever the opponent unleashes an attack on Mahoraga, the wheel on his head rotates, helping it to adapt to the phenomena used on him. Basically, this ability allows Mahoraga to adapt while its feet are in battle. The more attacks it takes, the more it adapts. That way, it crafts a final strategy or, rather, a blueprint to counter even the strongest move or domain expansion of the enemy. That’s what it did when fighting against Gojo. He gets the power to defend against further attacks from the same enemy. On the other hand, the Sword of Extermination is a sharp blade attached to his arm with positive energy, making it even more powerful against any form of Cursed Spirit. Obviously, Mahoraga boasts incredible physical strength as well. One attack from him will send even the strongest of people miles away. So, it’s understandable why it proved to be a fearsome opponent against our beloved Gojo.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How many Sukuna’s fingers did Yuji eat in anime? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How many Sukuna’s fingers did Yuji eat in anime? CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen anime delivers a shocking episode as Jogo feeds several Sukuna’s fingers to Yuji. Here’s everything you need to know about it. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is currently featuring the fan-favorite Shibuya Incident arc. The recent episode confirms that the anime is heading towards its biggest tragedy as the King of Curses awakens. Sukuna always lies dormant inside Yuji. For unknown reasons, Yuji is the only one capable of suppressing Sukuna. Even if he consumes all his fingers, he can still control his body. However, there’s a major loophole that Jogo took advantage of. Yuji can only maintain control of himself as long as he consumes the fingers one by one. If he were to consume several fingers all at once, then Sukuna would take over for a short period of time. And that’s what happened in the recent episode. Delve deeper to find out how many Sukuna’s fingers Yuji has eaten in anime so far. Warning: This article contains spoilers from Jujutsu Kaisen manga! The total count of Sukuna’s fingers Yuji ate in Jujutsu Kaisen anime After Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 15, Yuji has consumed 15 Sukuna’s fingers in total in anime. Yuji consumed the first finger while trying to save Megumi at the beginning of the series. The second one was given to him by Gojo to test his abilities as a vessel. As for the third one, Sukuna took it out from a Curse Womb and consumed it. Megumi gave the fourth one to Yuji for safekeeping, but Sukuna created a mouth on Yuji’s hand and ate it. In the recent episode, Mimiko and Nanako feed the fifth one to Yuji. After that, Jogo arrives at the scene and feeds him 10 fingers together. This is how Yuji ended up consuming fifteen of them and gained enormous strength. However, he also had to pay a heavy price for it. He lost control of his body for about 30 minutes, which was enough for the King of Curses to turn Shibuya upside down. He ended up killing Mimiko, Nanako, Jogo, Haruta, and thousands of civilians in Shibuya. By the time Yuji woke up, the damage was irreversible. Being the kind person he is, Yuji continues to blame himself for everything, even to this day. Even though the mass murder was done by Sukuna, he did it using Yuji’s body. Therefore, Yuji carries the burden of Sukuna’s sins and struggles to make up for it.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How long since the manga revealed Nobara’s status? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How long since the manga revealed Nobara’s status? CrunchyrollThe series’ lead girl, Nobara Kugisaki, fights her strongest opponent in Shibuya, but it seems Gege Akutami has no intention of revealing Nobara’s status in Jujutsu Kaisen. Jujutsu Kaisen is popular for spotlighting its female cast, as they are usually powerful fighters. One such character is Nobara Kugisaki, the only girl among the first-years of Jujutsu Tech High School. She’s an excellent Jujutsu Sorcerer as well as a perfect partner to fight alongside Yuji Itadori. Time and again, Nobara has proven her might and supported her friends the best she can. She can also use Black Flash, a technique only a handful of Sorcerers can use. The fact that Nobara and Yuji manage to defeat two special-grade curses in the Death Painting arc is a testament to her skills. However, the Shibuya Incident arc separates the series’ best trio in the worst way imaginable. Although the Jujutsu Kaisen manga is in its last stretch, there has yet to be an update about Nobara’s status so far. What happens to Nobara in the Shibuya Incident arc? In the Shibuya Incident arc, Nobara comes across the notorious curse Mahito. The battle is extremely thrilling since Mahito realizes that apart from Yuji, Nobara is also his natural enemy. While the patchwork curse underestimates his enemy, Nobara comes up with a counterattack against Idle Transfiguration. As fans are aware by now, any form of physical attack will have a negligent effect on Mahito. However, Nobara’s Resonance can directly hit the curse’s soul and his body. On the other, Yuji uses sheer force to bring down Mahito and put an end to his terror. The duo is working well for a short while until Mahito grazes Nobara’s face. The scene quickly changes to a flashback while Nobara is touching her face. The series also reveals Saori, who wonders about what Nobara is doing these days. After the flashback ends, Nobara asks Yuji to tell everyone that “it wasn’t so bad” before collapsing. Half of her face is completely ruined, including her eye, while she suffers fatal injuries on her head. By then, Yuji is already at his breaking point after Sukuna’s rampage and watching Nanami die. Therefore, seeing Nobara collapse like that breaks his last bit of rationality as he ultimately gives up on surviving. He barely manages to recover after Aoi Todo snaps him out of it. Aoi comes along with Arata Nitta, who is a first-year at Kyoto Jujutsu High. Arata can’t heal wounds, but he can stop the bleeding and keep the injury from getting worse. He quickly treats Nobara but doesn’t guarantee her survival. How long since Nobara’s status has been revealed in Jujutsu Kaisen? Despite several tabloids claiming that Nobara has indeed died during her fight with Mahito, the manga has yet to confirm it. In chapter 210, Yuji and Megumi talk about their intention not to let Kurusu become a replacement for Nobara. This chapter was released in January 2023 but doesn’t hint at her status. Chapter 210 only confirms that Nobara will not be returning to the battle, but there’s not enough evidence to guarantee her death. The latest update we do have about Nobara’s status in Jujutsu Kaisen is from chapter 127, where Arata claims that Nobara has no pulse and isn’t breathing. However, not much time has passed since she got injured, and he has managed to stop her bleeding. Arata doesn’t guarantee that she will pull through, but he also claims that she still has little chance of surviving. He retreats with Nobara to get her more professional treatment before telling Yuji not to get his hopes up too much. Since then, fans have yet to see Nobara. The chapter was released in October 2020. This means it’s been almost three years since Jujutsu Kaisen revealed anything about Nobara’s status. Although the manga has yet to confirm her death, this massive gap in revealing her status doesn’t bode well for Kugisaki’s fans, as she may have perished after receiving fatal injuries from Mahito.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How Gojo’s birth impacted the world – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How Gojo’s birth impacted the world CrunchyrollAs the strongest sorcerer alive, Gojo’s influence in the Jujustu society, as well as the entire world, cannot be denied. Here’s how Gojo’s birth impacted the world of Jujutsu Kaisen. Pseudo-Geto has already sealed Jujutsu Kaisen’s beloved Gojo sensei. Just as anime fans thought they wouldn’t be able to see him for a few years, the recent episode surprisingly introduces Gojo’s younger versions. We see brief glimpses of baby Gojo and his appearance when he was a young kid. However, this is really the last time when Jujutsu Kaisen will show Gojo. From this point on, the other sorcerers will struggle to keep the citizens safe, as well as find a way to unseal Gojo. In the recent episode, we see Yuji, Megumi, and Ino taking the first step toward their goal as they fight the curse users to lift the curtain surrounding Shibuya. Amid all this, Jujutsu Kaisen finally explains the impact of someone as strong as Gojo being born in the world. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 explains Gojo’s importance in the world Satoru Gojo is the first child born with Six Eyes in over 400 years. Because the power is so rare and valuable, no one can even compare it to the level of strength he has been born with. Without a doubt, Satoru is the strongest sorcerer of his era. Since birth, he has been the pride of the Gojo Clan, with people fawning over him since childhood. Even among the other clans, Gojo was a topic of discussion. However, not everyone will celebrate the birth of the strongest sorcerer of their era. For criminals such as curse users, Gojo’s existence was a shackle that bound them endlessly. Before Gojo was born, crimes revolving around curse users were common occurrences. They described being able to kill and torture people with their powers as being free. On the other hand, Jujutsu sorcerers had their hands full with the increasing number of cursed spirits, and no one would target the users. The overall power of humans in the world was weaker than ever. However, all that changed around 28 years ago. Even as a child, Gojo had a bounty of over a hundred million. When the curse users first saw Gojo, they understood that his birth had altered the balance of the world. The decline of the Jutusu world halted with just a mere child, and the curse users weren’t able to commit crimes anymore freely. The curses’ increasing strength was also because of Gojo’s existence. As such, the overall quality of Jujutsu sorcerers significantly increased over the years. Because the people from the modern era in Jujutsu Kaisen were weak, Gojo’s birth was the turning point. The curse users were unable to look at him in the eye, much less kill him. This is why Ogami and Jiro Awasaka joined hands with Psuedo-Geto to ensure Gojo is out of their way.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How does Yuta still have Rika? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How does Yuta still have Rika? CrunchyrollDespite Rika’s passing in the prequel movie, the Season 2 finale of Jujutsu Kaisen unveils that Yuta can still wield her powers. Here’s everything you need to know. Jujutsu Kaisen prequel movie follows the tale of Yuta Okkotsu, who unintentionally cursed his childhood love after her death. Unaware of his powers, Yuta begged Rika not to die. Since then, she latched on to him as a special-grade apparition. He believed himself to be the cursed one. After several years, Yuta joined the Jujutsu Tech High School with Gojo’s help and realized he cursed Rika. He also swore to help her find peace. The movie ends with Rika passing on alone despite Yuta’s promise to die with her after using her powers. Yuta Okkotsu finally makes his anime debut in the Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 finale. He saves a little girl from a curse. After killing the curse, Rika feeds on it while Yuta covers the girl’s eyes to stop her from witnessing something gruesome. However, although Rika isn’t physically shown, Yuta talks with her. Delve deeper to find out how Yuta still has Rika in Jujutsu Kaisen. Warning: This article contains spoilers from the manga! How does Yuta still have Rika and her powers in Jujutsu Kaisen? Rika’s soul has passed on, and Yuta freed her from his curse. However, the “vessel” Rika stayed with him even after that. According to Chapter 178, Rika is Yuta’s external cursed technique and can store cursed energy and tools for him. Compared to his earlier days as a Jujutsu student, Yuta can fully utilize Rika’s potential. Although Rika usually listens to Yuta, in special cases, she can partially appear and lash out to protect him without his command. She can also function autonomously at a reasonable distance from Yuta to complete distinct duties. Yuta doesn’t have to use strong emotions to summon Rika, and she appears instantly, allowing him to summon her to his side at any time. Rika also retains her typical power, easily immobilizing Yuji and crumbling a bridge with a single attack.

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How does Sukuna die in the manga? Manga PlusThe Shinjuku Showdown Arc of Jujutsu Kaisen features the final fight against Ryomen Sukuna – so, here’s how he dies. The Jujutsu Kaisen manga will end in September 2024. The battle against Sukuna started over a year ago and the King of Curses has been running the gauntlet against the cast. As the manga’s ending draws near, his defeat is all the more certain. The Shinjuku Showdown Arc is the final arc of the manga, revealing several battle strategies in place in the event of Gojo’s loss. His defeat may be a shock to fans, but the sorcerers and Gojo himself made preparations beforehand if the worst-case scenario happened. It took a lot of effort and sacrifices to put down the King of Curses. But how did Sukuna die? Warning: Spoilers ahead! Sukuna dies in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 268 Yuji kills Sukuna after Megumi frees his body. Sukuna could only survive this long thanks to using Megumi’s body as a vessel. This is why the sorcerers’ first priority was to free Megumi from Sukuna’s grasp. However, that’s easier said than done. Megumi was drowning in despair after Tsumiki’s death. Sukuna ensured Megumi couldn’t get back again with the Bath Ritual. However, the battle was long and the sorcerers paved the path for Yuji’s attacks. Thanks to Yuji’s soul punches and Black Flashes, the barrier between Sukuna’s soul and Megumi’s soul weakened. In Chapter 266, Megumi fights back against Sukuna, implying the villain’s end is nearer than ever. Nobara returns in Chapter 267 and uses Resonance on Sukuna’s final finger. Sukuna is visibly in pain and starts convulsing. After that, in Chapter 268, Yuji’s domain collapses. As soon as that happens, Megumi pulls himself out and Sukuna is reduced to a pile of flesh. The villain knows it’s over for him. Yuji picks him up and offers to become his vessel again. He pities Sukuna and wants to give him a second chance. However, Sukuna’s hatred for Yuji runs so deep that the former chooses death. Sukuna disintegrates into thin air like a curse. This is how the glorious King of Curses loses the battle: defeated and returned to nothingness. The Jujutsu Kaisen manga will be ending in a few weeks, so find out the final chapter’s release date.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Yu Haibara die? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Yu Haibara die? CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen Season 2 features Nanami envisioning his deceased friend Yu Haibara. However, the series never fully explores what exactly happened to him. Jujutsu Kaisen introduced Yu Haibara in Season 2. A friend of Nanami, his death weighed heavily on the bespeckled sorcerer. He first appeared in the Hidden Inventory Arc and died by its end before making a brief reappearance in the Shibuya Incident Arc. Being a junior to Geto, Haibara also played a crucial role in the former’s downfall. When Geto was already doubting the jujutsu world after Riko’s death, it was Haibara’s demise that pushed him over the edge. This led to him slaughtering an entire village of non-sorcerers and turning into a curse user. However, although Haibara was a major character death in Jujutsu Kaisen, and played a significant role in Geto’s backstory, the series never properly explores what really happened to him. How Yu Haibara died in Jujutsu Kaisen Yu Haibara died on a mission while fighting a grade 1 cursed spirit. Despite his brief stint in the story, Haibara’s death is one of the saddest scenes in Season 2. He was liked by the series’ characters and viewers alike. So, his demise hit particularly hard, especially given the tragic way it happened. When Haibara and Nanami were second-years, they were sent on a mission to exorcize a grade 2 cursed spirit. However, during the mission, it soon became apparent that it was a misinformation. The curse was strong enough to be a grade 1, far surpassing their level at that time. Though the duo still kept on fighting, Haibara ultimately died. This had a grave impact on Nanami, leading to him becoming disillusioned to the jujutsu world and ultimately leaving it after graduating. Geto, on the other hand, took it more harshly. Haibara was a lively young man with a sister to look after. He was innocent, yet he died due to the higher-ups’ negligence. But nobody took responsibility. In fact, his demise was inconsequential to them since he wasn’t a particularly strong sorcerer. All they did after his death was to dispatch Gojo to exorcize the curse. After this tragic end, Haibara appeared in the story again just before Nanami’s death. As he was dying, the sorcerer saw the image of his deceased friend pointing at Yuji. He appeared at another heartbreaking moment; this time it was during Gojo’s death. In the Shinjuku Showdown Arc, after the present’s strongest jujutsu sorcerer died, he saw Geto and his other dead friends in the afterlife. This is the last time we see Haibara in the manga.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Toji bypass the barriers surrounding Jujutsu High? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Toji bypass the barriers surrounding Jujutsu High? CrunchyrollThe recent episode of Jujutsu Kaisen features the Sorcerer Killer making the first against the sorcerers, and it’s brutal. However, what’s truly surprising is how easily Toji bypasses the barriers surrounding Jujutsu High. Jujutsu Kaisen had already revealed Toji was making plans to take down Satoru Gojo and complete his mission of killing Riko Amanai. The recent episode features the flawless execution of his ingenious plot that shakes the very foundation of the Jujutsu world. The Sorcerer Killer wastes in dealing with Gojo and Riko before moving on to Geto. However, the biggest question that confuses everyone is how Toji is able to bypass the barriers surrounding Jujutsu High. In Season 1, when Hanami and the Curse Users infiltrated the school, an alarm went off that alerted everyone present. Furthermore, in the prequel movie, all Sorcerers gathered in one place when Geto and his group entered the school uninvited. Delve deeper to find out why Toji is able to bypass the barriers surrounding Jujutsu High without alerting anyone. Toji can bypass the barriers around Jujutsu High because of two reasons The reason Master Tengen is revered as an entity in Jujutsu Kaisen is because of the barriers that protect the Jujutsu world. Any unregistered cursed energy, whether they are humans or curses, will trigger an alarm that will alert everyone about the intruder. However, Toji doesn’t have a trace of Cursed Energy, meaning he can come and go without regard for the barriers. Toji also carries a cursed spirit with him called the “Inventory Curse.” It’s a low-level curse that stores all his tools and several other low-level curses within its body. The Inventory Curse can shrink in size and allow Toji to swallow it before infiltrating a place. This helps the curse hide its presence and all the things it carries within itself. Therefore, both Toji and the Inventory Curse can bypass any barrier in the Jujutsu world without alerting anyone. They don’t leave any residue behind, so no one will know that the two had ever been there. Toji is able to convert his biggest weakness of having no cursed energy into his greatest strength. Jujutsu Kaisen can currently be streamed on Crunchyroll and Netflix.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Toge Inumaki lose his arm? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Toge Inumaki lose his arm? CrunchyrollToge Inumaki is a popular character in Jujutsu Kaisen, known for only speaking rice ball ingredients. Though he appears very little in the story, he expectedly loses an arm at the end of the second season. Here’s an overview of the situation. Toge Inumaki is a major character in Jujutsu Kaisen. He’s a second-year student at the Tokyo Jujutsu High and a Cursed Speech user. Because of his technique, Toge always speaks in rice ball ingredients to avoid accidentally cursing others. However, despite his silent nature, he is still well-loved among fans. Despite playing a major role during the Goodwill Event and the subsequent attack by Hanami, Toge doesn’t appear all that much in the following arcs. Because of all the chaos going on in Shibuya, Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 barely shows him and focuses on other characters. His status is finally revealed when he Yuta makes his debut in the main story in the second season finale. While Toge looked perfectly fine the last time we see him in the anime, the finale episode features a scene where he is standing with his arm cut off. Now the question is how Toge lost his arm in Jujutsu Kaisen. Delve deeper to find out. Warning: This article contains brief spoilers from the manga! How did Toge Inumaki lose his arm in Jujutsu Kaisen? Toge Inumaki plays a very small role in the Shibuya Incident Arc. The last time viewers see him is when Yuji is heading toward the Shibuya Station to find Gojo. As Yuji is surrounded by a bunch of transfigured humans, Toge arrives to help him. Having his senior there helps Yuji make up his mind to go to Gojo’s location. Toge doesn’t appear for a while after that but it can be assumed that he has been the transfigured humans. He makes another brief appearance later in the story when he’s seen looking over the civilians in Shibuya. What happens next to Toge is shown towards the end of the arc. When Yuji leaves Toge behind to enter the Shibuya Station, he ends up fighting Choso. We all know what happens afterward. Yuji loses to tremendously and loses consciousness while Jogo feeds him several of Sukuna’s fingers at once, allowing the King of Curses to take control of Yuji’s body. Sukuna then plunges Shibuya into chaos. When Megumi summons Mahoraga before passing out, Sukuna is forced to fight one of his strongest opponents. During his intense fight against the humongous Shikigami, a large part of Shibuya is destroyed, even more so when Sukuna unleashes his Domain Expansion. The part of Shibuya that Sukuna destroys while fighting Mahoraga is where Toge is last seen. He loses his left arm during Sukuna’s attack on Shibuya. Judging by the scale of Sukuna’s destruction, it’s already a miracle that Toge survived at all as countless civilians died by the attack. Toge’s role has significantly lessened since the Shibuya Incident Arc, only for him to briefly appear once or twice in the manga after that. It’s unclear why his arm cannot be regenerated using Reverse Cursed Technique, but it’s likely because the damage is done by Sukuna’s domain. After all, if Reverse Cursed Technique is effective, Yuta would’ve been the first one to heal his friend. Though Toge Inumaki no longer has a major role in the story, him losing his arm serves as a significant plot point in Jujutsu Kaisen. When Yuta appears at the end of the Shibuya Incident Arc, he holds Yuji responsible for Toge’s condition and vows to kill him. What happens next, viewers will get to see in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Sukuna use a fire technique? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Sukuna use a fire technique? CrunchyrollSukuna’s main abilities in Jujutsu Kaisen involve slashing and cutting. However, he also displays proficiency in the rare fire technique, suggesting a mastery of diverse skills beyond his inherent abilities. Jujutsu Kaisen’s Shibuya arc never fails to deliver shocking episodes, and this week is no different. Last time, the series welcomed the return of the King of Curses, Ryomen Sukuna. Hence, it wasn’t difficult to figure out that something major was about to happen. In this week’s episode, we see two major fights of the series: Toji vs Megumi and Sukuna vs Jogo. However, surprisingly enough, Sukuna defeats Jogo using fire-type techniques. The King of Curses is only known for using techniques that involve slashing or cutting up his targets. Even his Domain Expansion, Malevolent Shrine, is like that. But Sukuna using the rare fire attribute is surely astounding. Delve deeper to find out how Sukuna’s fire technique works in Jujutsu Kaisen. Sukuna’s fire technique in Jujutsu Kaisen People with cursed energy and cursed spirits have one inherited or innate cursed technique they’re born with. These techniques cannot be learned over time, which is why Yuji is a special existence in Jujutsu Kaisen. Since Yuji isn’t born with an innate technique, he only relies on cursed energy manipulation, such as Divergent Fist and Black Flash. Someone with an innate cursed technique can use any number of techniques that are an extension of their primary talent. For example, Nanami’s innate “Ratio Technique” allows him to use an ability called “Collapse.” Now, back to Sukuna, we assumed his innate cursed technique was only about slashing or cutting. However, the series never actually explained it. Suppose Sukuna’s innate cursed technique is “X,” so all these deadly abilities, such as Cleave, Dismantle, Spiderweb, and Fire Arrow, will be nothing more than an extension of that “X.” Hence, only Sukuna can use these techniques. In the series, Sukuna chants something before saying “Open.” And he unlocks his fire abilities. He then uses a Fire Arrow, which far exceeds Jogo’s abilities, who specializes in fire techniques. Sukuna also says that he won’t cheat by revealing his technique since that would increase his power. He must’ve realized that he doesn’t need to spare any extra effort while Jogo who is clearly several times weaker than him. Even in the manga, when we’ve seen Sukuna’s true form and the horrors he unleashed, the series didn’t reveal his true ability.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Suguru Geto die? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How did Suguru Geto die? CrunchyrollThe death of Suguru Geto is still a mystery in Jujutsu Kaisen since it doesn’t happen on screen – so here’s how he died. From being a model student to one of the most dangerous villains in Jujutsu Kaisen, Suguru Geto’s life has been on a downward spiral, leading to his unfortunate death. Geto was not only a special-grade sorcerer but also Gojo’s best friend. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 adapts Gojo’s Past Arc from the manga, featuring the tragedy that changed the lives of the young sorcerers. In 2006, unlike the arrogant and evil Geto in the prequel movie, the one in his high school days abides by his morals and strove to protect the weak. However, Geto betrays the Jujutsu world and his best friend in the most heartbreaking way. He ultimately meets his end as a villain. Warning: Spoilers ahead! How did Suguru Geto die in Jujutsu Kaisen? Although the death was off-screen, Satoru Gojo killed Suguru Geto in the prequel movie. It happens right after the epic fight between Yuta and Geto, in which the latter loses. Geto is planning to escape, but Gojo finds him first. The duo talks briefly, and Gojo ends Geto’s life. No doubt, killing Geto has always been a heavy burden in Gojo’s heart. However, he knows what he must do to protect his students and the ordinary people. Yuta, who failed to finish Geto off, always regretted it. However, that’s not the end. Geto is an active villain in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1 and 2, which happens a year after the events of the prequel movie. Since Geto is already dead, it’s confusing how he continues to appear in the series. JJK Season 2 reveals during the Shibuya Incident Arc that another entity is inhabiting Geto’s body. The anime doesn’t delve into the details, but the one who is in control of Geto’s body and powers is an ancient curse user named Kenjaku. Kenjaku has been around for over a thousand years, thanks to his ability to switch bodies using his innate technique. The name of Kenjaku’s innate technique is still a mystery, but it has allowed him to survive for all these centuries while also gaining countless techniques in the process. He transfers his brain into the host and gains their memories and powers as well. Kenjaku continued living Geto’s life on the surface, but the people close to him, such as Mimiko and Nanako, knew that the real Geto was dead.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: How can Yuji use Blood Manipulation? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: How can Yuji use Blood Manipulation? CrunchyrollYuji is currently fighting Sukuna with his new powers in Jujutsu Kaisen – but how is he able to use Blood Manipulation? Jujutsu Kaisen hid Yuji’s powers for a long time until his final fight against Sukuna began. His desperate attempt to kill the villain and save his friend after his beloved sensei’s death has been exciting so far. During the short time between Gojo’s return and the battle of the strongest, everyone’s skills improved tremendously. They all trained to be prepared in case Gojo lost the battle. Nonetheless, the one who improved the most is Yuji Itadori. Not only is Yuji able to use the complex Reverse Cursed Technique, but he can also use Blood Manipulation and has a strange ability to attack someone’s soul with his punches. Delve deeper to find out how Yuji can use Blood Manipulation in Jujutsu Kaisen. Was Yuji born with the innate Blood Manipulation technique? Although Choso and Yuji are technically brothers, they have no blood relation to speak of. Yuji is a human, while Choso is a reincarnated Cursed Womb: Death Painting. A few centuries ago, Kenjaku possessed Noritoshi Kamo’s body and used Choso’s mother to give birth to him and the rest of his nine siblings. Centuries later, Kenjaku possessed Kaori Itadori and gave birth to Yuji for an elaborate plan. Hence, that’s how Choso and Yuji became brothers. However, Yuji isn’t born with the innate technique of the Kamo Clan. In fact, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 220 has already revealed how Yuji can use Blood Manipulation. He says that he will eat anything as long as he can kill Sukuna and then explains his plan to save Megumi. Later, Choso hands him Yuki’s notes about her research on souls, where Yuji mentions the rest of their siblings. However, before Yuji can elaborate, Choso implies that he’s glad that their siblings can live as part of him. The implication behind Yuji eating the remaining death paintings couldn’t be clearer. Since the Death Paintings have Noritoshi Kamo’s blood, each one of them has inherited the Blood Manipulation technique, which has now passed on to Yuji. Chapter 247 also discreetly hints that Yuji uses Choso’s Piercing Blood, but it remains uncertain if it is Yuji or Choso. Since Choso is severely wounded in that scene, it’s likely Yuji who launches the attack on Sukuna. As the fight continues in Chapter 251, Yuji surprises the King of Curses with an insane technique. He first spits a mouthful of blood on Sukuna’s face and later explodes it. The technique seems to be an extension of Blood Manipulation. The fight is still ongoing, and no doubt the series will shed more light on all of Yuji’s abilities.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen hinted at Yuji’s domain long ago, but nobody noticed – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen hinted at Yuji’s domain long ago, but nobody noticed Gege Akutami/MAPPAJujutsu Kaisen Chapter 264 finally unveils Yuji’s domain expansion, but it’s not as much of a surprise as many may think. While the Jujutsu Kaisen manga has been around since 2018, it truly caught everyone’s attention after the anime show was released in 2020. Fans were not only intrigued by the story and the characters, but they also loved the show’s opening song. In Jujutsu Kaisen’s first opening, Kaikai Kiten, we see Yuji sitting in an empty train half-submerged in water. He appears to be sleeping at first, before his eyes open and he’s eventually taken over by Sukuna. Nobody paid attention to it for a long time, taking it as a creative choice. However, as Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 264 reveals Yuji’s domain, we have to look back and see if it had been cleverly foreshadowed all along. In Chapter 264, the fight between Sukuna and the sorcerers reaches a new height. The heroes have tried everything, but nothing works against the King of Curses. But when all seems lost, the protagonist turns out to be the ace in the hole. Towards the end, Yuji unleashes his domain expansion, trapping Sukuna and himself within it. His domain takes the shape of an empty station (probably Shibuya Station) with only the two there. The chapter ends with Yuji urging Sukuna to come with it, possibly to board a train. This turn of events had made fans remember Yuji in that empty train. It could be that Gege Akutami knew what Yuji’s domain was going to be from a long time ago. Or it could also be that the author took that detail from the anime and included it in the manga. “It’s ending where it all started… Gege is a f**king genius,” tweeted one user. Another commented, “Taking an idea from the director of your own anime is genius.” “Yuji and Sukuna in a train station… it was in front of us the whole time,” wrote a third. “This is the most heavy foreshadowing I’ve seen, holy sh*t,” added a fourth. One fan had another interesting theory about it: “HEAR ME OUT, GOJO WAS AT AN AIRPORT TO ‘HEAVEN’. WHAT IF… THE TRAIN STATION… IS A TRIP TO HELL?!” We’re yet to see what Yuji’s domain really accomplishes against Sukuna. Given Jujutsu Kaisen is ending soon, it’s likely the final stretch of the fight. This means Sukuna may find his end at that train station. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 264 will be released on July 28, 2024. Until then, read more about the final Jujutsu Kaisen arc. You can also find out the motivation behind Jujutsu Kaisen’s only romance and why fans hate the new Gojo art.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen hinted at another cursed technique for Yuji you forgot about – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen hinted at another cursed technique for Yuji you forgot about CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen actually hinted at another cursed technique for Yuji in a past chapter that fans may not have noticed. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 222 has a pair of panels that inspired the theory that Yuji has one very specific cursed technique he hasn’t used. Almost forgotten after not being addressed for the longest time, the panels hint at the possibility of Yuji having this special cursed technique but not using it until the right opportunity. After much speculation, the manga finally revealed Yuji’s main cursed technique in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 257. It turns out Yuji has the same technique as Sukuna, now officially known as “Shrine”. The chapter also revealed the real connection between Yuji and Sukuna. The true relationship between the protagonist and antagonist opened the possibilities for a lot of theories. A popular theory about Yuji is that he has more than one cursed technique similar to Sukuna’s. Earlier in the series, Gojo predicted that Yuji would one day carry Sukuna’s CT as his vessel. That does come true later in the series, strengthened by Yuji’s origin. As for any other CT that Yuji has, the Shinjuku Showdown has revealed that Yuji’s punches have the ability to hit his opponent’s soul and he can use Blood Manipulation. Aside from this, there is one detail in Chapter 222 that may have been hinting at the other CT Yuji possesses. In the chapter, a couple of panels showed Yuji and Kusakabe training together. What’s weird about them is that Yuji ordered Kusakabe to “get the hang of it already” before calling him Itadori. In reply, Kusakabe answered “osu”, which translates to “yes, sir” in English. The official translation of the chapter also mentions that it’s one of Yuji’s catchphrases, previously used in Chapter 215. The odd interaction between them hinted at Yuji and Kusakabe swapping bodies or souls. It also supports the theory of Yuji having another CT and that power having something to do with souls. As Yuji’s punches can affect the soul, it’s easy to assume that his other CT allows him to swap souls. Yuji being able to use the soul swapping cursed technique can open a lot of paths for the plot to take in the future. He could use it to swap souls with Sukuna and finally take Megumi from under Sukuna’s control. Potentially he could also use Sukuna’s domain by taking over his body. While there hasn’t been any explanation of the panels since, it could still come back as a shocking plot twist. If recent Jujutsu Kaisen chapters have taught fans anything, it’s that the manga will always deliver something unexpected, and tie up every loose end.

CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen has a Hidden Inventory/Premature Death arc movie on the way, so here’s a look at everything we know about it. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 was the most popular anime of 2023 adapting two arcs from the manga. The first part features Gojo’s Past Arc, which the animation studio kept within the Hidden Inventory/Premature Death Arc. The second part of Season 2 adapts the Shibuya Incident Arc. While both arcs are well-loved among fans, the flashback touched the hearts of many. Gojo is the strongest sorcerer of the modern era, but much about him remained a mystery until then. Furthermore, the JJK prequel movie leaves behind several unanswered questions about Gojo’s best friend, Geto, whom he was forced to kill. The flashback reveals the tragedy that forced the two to go down separate paths in life. Sadly, the path Geto chose led to his ruin. The anime will release a new movie featuring their heartbreaking tale, so here’s what you need to know. Does the Jujutsu Kaisen Hidden Inventory/Premature Death movie have a release date? Currently, the Jujutsu Kaisen Hidden Inventory/Premature Death movie does not have a release date. We know the movie will hit Japanese theaters in 2025. However, the global release is still unknown. What is the movie about? The first five episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 feature the flashback arc. MAPPA, the animation studio behind JJK will compile the episodes into a movie. The arc focuses on Gojo’s high school years with Suguru Geto, another special-grade sorcerer. Their casual life turns upside down when an escort mission takes a turn for the worse. Master Tengen is an immortal jujutsu sorcerer who remains within their chamber, the Tombs of the Star Corridor. They entrust Principal Yaga to assign Gojo and Geto to protect the Star Plasma Vessel. Around every five centuries, a Star Plasma Vessel is born, which possesses the requisite potential to refresh Master Tengen’s immortality by merging with them. One cult that worships Tengen is against the merging, due to which they place an enormous bounty on her head. Hence, Gojo and Geto must escort her safely before she merges with Master Tengen. Gojo and Geto are the strongest duo, so victory seems certain until Toji Fushiguro, the “Sorcerer Killer,” sets his sights on the prize money. That’s everything we know about the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen movie. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 is currently under production while the manga has just announced its sudden ending.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen has one subtle detail from MAPPA that fans can’t get enough of – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen has one subtle detail from MAPPA that fans can’t get enough of CrunchyrollFans notice a subtle detail from MAPPA in the Jujutsu Kaisen anime and are praising the studio for it. It’s safe to say that Jujutsu Kaisen is one of the most popular anime of all time. This is further proven by the anime’s latest world record as the most in-demand animated TV series in the world. The anime show is frequently praised for its seamless animation, art design, and direction. However, there is a little detail that MAPPA, the studio behind the anime, has added to the show that fans think is brilliant. Jujutsu Kaisen viewers notice that in some scenes featuring certain characters, MAPPA has included a bit of foreshadowing about the characters’ fates further down the story. For example, in the second opening song, there is an image of Mechamaru, Mai, Miwa, and Momo. In the image, Mechamaru is in the shadow while the girls are in the light. The third ending song of Jujutsu Kaisen also has this little image. In the video, Gojo, Geto, and Shoko are going different ways after saying goodbye for the day. While Gojo and Shoko are both in the light, Geto is shown to be walking in the shadows. The Zenin sisters, Maki and Mai, are two characters on whom this is observed the most. In different scenes featuring both of them, Maki is shown to be in the light and Mai in the shadows. This subtle detail in Jujutsu Kaisen anime adds a symbolism to their characters. Fans observe that there is a pattern to this. MAPPA used the visuals to foreshadow the characters’ fates. Those in the light have a mostly positive future while the ones in the shadows die and sometimes commit something very bad. The characters in the shadows, namely Mechamaru, Mai, and Geto also die in the series, and among them, both Mechamaru and Geto go down on a dark path. While Geto becomes someone who wants to rid the world of normal humans, Mechamaru is revealed to be a betrayer, though only to protect his friends. Those in the light are not all alive but they all died without going down the wrong path. Fans think this symbolism in the Jujutsu Kaisen anime is a very clever detail to add by MAPPA. “Love MAPPA for this, symbolism is one of my favorite ways of adding depth to the story. They have done this in previous anime like Banana Fish and Dororo too,” writes one user on Reddit. “Animators did a wonderful job,” wrote another Jujutsu Kaisen anime viewer. “When there’s symbolism it also adds so much beauty to anything,” agrees another user about the symbolism. Gege Akutami has always used a lot of symbolism and foreshadowing in this story. And now this subtle and clever detail in the Jujutsu Kaisen anime by MAPPA will surely have fans looking deeper into the anime from now on.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen has one ridiculous fight fans still want to see – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen has one ridiculous fight fans still want to see CrunchyrollSukuna and Yuji’s clash in the recent Jujutsu Kaisen chapter has fans wanting to see a particular fight in the series. Jujutsu Kaisen featured some of the most shocking twists in the story in its recent chapter. Chapter 257 revealed Sukuna had a twin brother whom he ate in their mother’s womb. Not only that but the soul of his twin was reincarnated as Jin Itadori. That means Kenjaku possessed the body of Kaori Itadori for the sole purpose of creating a child with both his and Sukuna DNA, leading to Yuji’s birth. Yuji Itadori’s family includes Sukuna as he is the King of Curses’ nephew. Along with the Yuji’s origin, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 257 also revealed that Sukuna and he share the same cursed technique, Shrine. In the chapter, Yuji also broke all kinds of records by performing eight consecutive Black Flashes. Black Flash is as flashy an attack as it sounds. The ability is both powerful and visually stunning. It’s also one of the strongest weapons in Yuji’s arsenal. No character, not even Sukuna, has been able to outdo Yuji when it comes to Black Flash. Yuji’s mastery over the attack has Jujutsu Kaisen fans wanting a Sukuna vs. Yuji fight solely with Black Flash attacks. They want to see two Black Flashes clashing and an entire fight consisting of them throwing that one attack against each other. “This would be absolutely peak, no doubt about it,” says a fan on Reddit while another user calls this possible Jujutsu Kaisen fight “peak Kaisen”. “Imagine if they land a Black Flash by headbutting each other,” comments another fan. “If it happens I hope it has a specific effect bigger than just damage, because this would be two distortions in space at the exact same f**king place,” shares another reader. A clash of Black Flash between the two is an interesting prospect. However, whether Gege Akutami does end up listening to this wish from his readers for this particular fight in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 258 is yet to be seen.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen has a “minus” compared to One Piece that Gege Akutami wants to fix in next manga – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen has a “minus” compared to One Piece that Gege Akutami wants to fix in next manga CrunchyrollIn a recent Q&A session, Gege Akutami revealed Jujutsu Kaisen has a major “minus” compared to One Piece. However, he wants to fix that in his next project. Jujutsu Kaisen manga is currently in its final stretch as Gege Akutami revealed the Shinjuku Showdown Arc to be the final arc. The arc features the fight between Sukuna and the sorcerers. Thankfully, Kenjaku has already been defeated thanks to Takaba and Yuta. And even though Sukuna is still standing, he is reaching his limit by now. While Jujutsu Kaisen will conclude in a few months, Gege Akutami is already planning to create a new manga. This time, he wants to include one part from One Piece. According to a JJK translator, in a Q&A booklet, Gege shares, “I consider it a minus that there are no global goals in Jujutsu Kaisen like becoming a pirate king. I will try to improve next time.” One fan shares on X, “I kind of like the idea that Yuji’s only goal was to fulfill his grandfather’s wish to help people. It’s a nice take and fresh of breath air from the overused shonen trope in my opinion, but it would also be interesting to see what Gege can do with a goal set up like One Piece.” “Gege make a prequel about a young Sukuna trying to become the strongest jujutsu sorcerer and my life is yours,” comments another. While it is currently unclear what Gege Akutami’s next manga will be after Jujutsu Kaisen ends, he is clearly planning to draw inspiration from One Piece. Eiichiro Oda’s manga does a lot right when it comes to worldbuilding and the main character’s ambitions, but Gege might prefer crafting a shorter story. Here’s a quick guide if you want to know more about the Jujutsu Kaisen manga ending.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen has a heartbreaking detail about Choso’s death you definitely missed – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen has a heartbreaking detail about Choso’s death you definitely missed Gege Akutami/MAPPAChoso’s death in Jujutsu Kaisen is one of the saddest moments in the manga, but there is one hidden detail that makes his passing all the more heartbreaking. Jujutsu Kaisen is known for being merciless to its characters, killing numerous major players in the sotry so far. Choso is one of the newer additions to that, dying in the hands of Sukuna in the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. As one of the fan-favorite characters, Choso’s death was extremely saddening for fans, especially given the way he died. Choso died in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 259, sacrificing himself to protect his younger brother Yuji by taking the brunt of Sukuna’s Kamino. As Choso was dying, he had a moment with Yuji in an imaginary world. The brothers sat opposite each other at a long table, reminiscent of the time Choso had a fake memory about Yuji after their fight in Shibuya. However, unlike that time, Eso and Kechizu weren’t present at the table. The last moment between Choso and Yuji was tender and heartwarming, as Choso praised the sorcerer for surpassing him, and Yuji thanked Choso for staying with him when he had nobody. The scene is quite painful in and of itself. However, one little detail in this particular panel makes the end of the beloved character all the more devastating, solidifying its place as one of the most heartbreaking Jujutsu Kaisen deaths. In the panel where Choso and Yuji are sitting opposite each other, Yuji seems to be clutching the table fervently. This is a nod to Choso’s fake memory where they were in a similar situation, but at that same time, it was Choso who was clutching the table. The detail is very small but speaks volumes of Yuji and Choso’s relationship. When Choso had that memory, it was him holding on to their brotherhood while Yuji was unaware. But at the time of Choso’s death, Yuji had already formed a strong relationship with the Death Painting, and this time, it was he who didn’t want to let go of Choso. This subtle representation of their relationship is as beautiful as it is poignant. It’s a great example of storytelling prowess from Gege Akutami and it has fans heartbroken over the beloved character’s demise in the manga. “That’s so sad. Choso’s so stoic throughout the whole manga, he looks so at peace in that fake memory, he deserved so much better,” wrote a user on Reddit. “Leave me to cope in peace. I was trying to get better after his death, leave us alone, no need to share at all,” commented another user, mourning Choso’s death. A third fan took this opportunity to praise the Jujutsu Kaisen author and commented, “Gege can write so well when he wants to I swear.” As the fandom is mourning the death of Choso, there’s another character who’s rumored to come back from the dead. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 260 hinted at Satoru Gojo returning after his death earlier in the arc. Whether he really comes back or not will be seen in the upcoming Chapter 261.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo’s Past Arc explained – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo’s Past Arc explained CrunchyrollThe highly awaited Season 2 of Jujutsu Kaisen finally makes its debut as it begins with Gojo’s Past Arc. The anime adaptation refers to the arc as Hidden Inventory / Premature Death Arc. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 will cover Gojo’s Past Arc as fans will see the younger versions of Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto during their school years. The arc explores their friendship and everything else that leads to Geto’s downfall. In the year 2006, Gojo and Geto are the two strongest sorcerers, which is why they are entrusted with the safety of a Star Plasma Vessel. Furthermore, the series also introduces Toji Fushiguro, one of the strongest characters in the series. The arc will only be five chapters long, covering 15 chapters from the manga. Gojo’s Past Arc in Jujutsu Kaisen will also feature several fan-favorite characters in their younger days before they become accomplished sorcerers. Delve deeper to find out what will happen in the first five episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2. Warning: This article contains major spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2. The plot of Gojo’s Past Arc in Jujutsu Kaisen Master Tengen entrust Principal Yaga to assign Gojo and Geto to protect their Star Plasma Vessel. For those who don’t know, Master Tengen is an immortal jujutsu sorcerer that remains within their chamber, the Tombs of the Star Corridor. They never leave that place to reinforce the barriers protecting both Jujutsu High locations. Every five hundred years or so, a Star Plasma Vessel is born, which possesses the requisite potential to refresh Master Tengen’s immortality by merging with them. However, the Vessel, Riko Amanai, has a bounty on her head, which is why Gojo and Geto must escort her safely before she merges with Master Tengen. Time Vessel Association hires Toji Fushiguro, the “Sorcerer Killer,” to assassinate the girl. Toji’s overwhelming strength surprises even Gojo and Geto, the two special-grade sorcerers. The assassin completes his mission and even defeats Gojo. On the other hand, Geto is repulsed by watching non-sorcerers celebrate Riko’s death. They believe Master Tengen shouldn’t be tainted by merging with another girl. However, the fact that they rejoice in the death of a teenage girl despite being ordinary civilians is disturbing. Geto questions his role in protecting such people, and this is the moment where Geto’s downfall begins, and he starts walking the path of evil. Meanwhile, after losing terribly from Toji, Gojo loses his sanity and attacks the Sorcer Killer with all his power. Important character deaths that will surprise fans Despite being a short arc, it will feature multiple deaths. As mentioned earlier, Toji will complete his mission of killing Riko by shooting her in the head. Being born as the Star Plasma Vessel meant that Riko was destined to have a short life. She will lose her life as soon as she merges with Master Tengen. Riko had accepted her cruel fate a long time ago. However, after enjoying her time with Gojo and the others, she realizes she wishes to live a little while longer. Gojo and Geto also grew fond of her and swore to protect her. While Gojo is fighting Toji, Geto asks Riko about what she wants to do and promises to keep her safe. Sadly, as soon as Geto promises to take her home, Toji shoots her in the head. Toji Fushiguro will also die at Gojo’s hand. Their first round ended with Gojo’s loss, which led Toji to believe he had the upper hand. However, Gojo heals his fatal injuries using his powers and defeats Toji using his Hollow Technique: Purple. In his last moments, Toji reveals that his son Megumi will be sold to the Zenin Clan, which compels Gojo to help the innocent child. A year after the incident, Yu Haibara dies while out on a mission with Kento Nanami. Nanami soon leaves the Jujutsu world and starts working as a corporate slave, only to find his life more meaningless than ever. Jujutsu Kaisen can be currently streamed on Crunchyroll.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo’s only complex is more tragic than we thought – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo’s only complex is more tragic than we thought CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami has answered several questions about Gojo, including his sole complex in life. While Gojo is portrayed as a happy-go-lucky guy most of the time in Jujutsu Kaisen, his reality is more tragic than we thought. Born as the strongest modern-era sorcerer, his role has been predestined and he’s treated more as a weapon than a person by almost everyone. The tragedy of his life finds more depth when Akutami reveals his distant relationship with his parents and his lonely childhood in the Gojo clan. If that wasn’t sad enough, he also shares how Gojo doesn’t have any complexes – except his failure to stop Geto. In the recent Q&A session, the creator was asked if Gojo has any complexes. To this, Gege Akutami replied: “Probably not. If I had to say it would probably be him unable to stop Geto.” This confirms that the one thing that troubles Gojo the most is his inability to prevent his best friend from becoming a mass murderer, which ultimately leads to his doom. What makes this more painful is when we remember Gojo is the one who kills Geto in the end. While fans understand the beloved character better now, they’re also heartbroken about this revelation. As one fan posted on X, “Gojo’s only regret is not stopping Geto… I AM LITERALLY GONNA CRY” “Gojo, the strongest born with Six Eyes and Infinity but his only complex is not being able to stop Geto…” shared another. “Dude this stuck with me. Geto is his biggest regret,” a third commented. A fourth wrote: “So many fights about Gojo’s complexes and insecurities only for Gege to come out and say that Gojo’s only complex is not being able to save Geto.” For more on the jujutsu world, find out Gojo’s only strength and weakness.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo’s Hollow Technique Purple explained – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo’s Hollow Technique Purple explained CrunchyrollApart from his Domain Expansion, Gojo’s Hollow Technique Purple is his most powerful offensive attack. Here’s how it works. In Jujutsu Kaisen, Gojo holds the title of the strongest sorcerer alive. Even his enemies consider sealing him away instead of killing him. He is the first child to be born with the Six Eyes in over 400 years. Being the pride of the legendary clan, Gojo quickly rose to the ranks and crushed anyone who dared to cross him. His Limitless allows him a wide arsenal of techniques, which can be fully utilized using his Six Eyes. Among those techniques, Gojo’s Hollow Purple is on a whole other level. Viewers get a glimpse of this ability in Season 1, where Gojo attempts to exorcise Hanami from a distance. However, the series has yet to explain the fundamentals of this incredibly complex technique. Here’s how Gojo’s Hollow Technique Purple works in Jujutsu Kaisen. Gojo’s Hollow Purple is created by merging two techniques Gojo’s Hollow Technique Purple is the colliding Limitless, an exceptionally powerful secret technique only known to a select few in the Gojo Clan. It brings the concept of motion and reversal into reality. The technique looks purple since it’s created by fusing two infinites – Blue and Red. By merging these two, Gojo creates an imaginary mass that rushes forward and erases everything in its path. Cursed Technique Lapse Blue makes the concepts of “negative numbers” and “negative distance” real. It compels real space to compensate and fill in the gaps by dragging everything toward impossibility. Therefore, it produces a strong force of attraction, similar to a strong magnet. Cursed Technique Reversal Red is powered by positive energy generated through the reverse cursed technique instead of negative cursed energy. This reverses the impact of the boosted Limitless, giving a strong repelling effect rather than an enticing one. To merge Blue and Red, Gojo needs to perform a hand sign that extends the index and pinky fingers outward while leaving the rest folded. To unleash Gojo’s Hollow Purple, the hand sign needs to switch to a pinching motion using the pointer and thumb while also extending the middle finger. Jujutsu Kaisen can currently be streamed on Crunchyroll and Netflix.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen’s beloved character wins Animage popularity poll – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen’s beloved character wins Animage popularity poll CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen’s beloved character has claimed the top spot in Animage magazine’s recent popularity poll. We also see a few more characters in the list. Here’s everything we know about. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is undoubtedly one of the most popular anime of the year. With fan-favorite arcs being adapted this season, the series’ popularity has skyrocketed through the roof. Additionally, the manga recently concluded its highly-anticipated fight between Gojo and Sukuna.

Jujutsu Kaisen fans naturally wouldn’t have anything to complain about since they can see their beloved character as much as they want. Even though he is already famous, Gojo’s popularity has really skyrocketed this year, so much so that he rose to the ranks of the most popular anime character. Delve deeper to see the results of the Animage magazine popularity poll featuring Gojo at the top of their list. Gojo and two more characters of Jujustu Kaisen rank high in the Animage popularity poll Animage was founded in 1978 as the first publication devoted to animation and comics that wasn’t targeted towards professionals but rather the general audience.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Satoru Gojo gets an underwhelming death – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Satoru Gojo gets an underwhelming death CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen’s beloved Satoru Gojo dies in the battle of the strongest – however, his death remains underwhelming even to this day. Jujutsu Kaisen is currently one of the most popular new-gen shonen anime and manga series. Written by Gege Akutami, the series instantly became popular among fans thanks to its complex power system, incredible character designs, and spell-bounding fight sequences. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Satoru Gojo contributes a lot to the series’ global popularity. Jujutsu Kaisen reaches its peak during the Shinjuku Showdown Arc when the strongest sorcerer of the past and the strongest sorcerer of today fight against each other. However, the manga ends the battle of the strongest in the most tragic way possible, with Gojo dying. Here’s how the fan-favorite character gets the most underwhelming death in Jujutsu Kaisen. How does Satoru Gojo die in Jujutsu Kaisen? Satoru Gojo dies in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 236 after fighting against Sukuna in the battle of the strongest in Shinjuku. When the Shinjuku Showdown begins between Gojo and Sukuna, it is inarguably the biggest and most hyped fight of the series. With two of the strongest characters fighting each other, the outcome is unpredictable, and the mangaka doesn’t help it by adding one twist after another. After multiple nail-biting twists, Chapter 235 seems to confirm Gojo’s victory, with Gojo shooting his Purple Hollow, which destroys everything in its path. However, before fans can celebrate for long, Gege Akutami drops a huge bomb in the next chapter. The cliffhanger is followed by Chapter 236, which starts with a teenage Gojo talking with his deceased friends, Geto, Nanami, and Haibara. The subject of their conversation makes it clear that no matter what the previous chapter makes it seem like, Gojo dies. He also meets Yaga, Riko, and Kuroi and bids them farewell before the scene changes to his lifeless body lying on the ground. The chapter reveals that not only is Gojo dead, but he also has a brutal death. His body is cut in half, with the lower part of his body still standing. One of his arms is amputated, too. It is also revealed that while Mahoraga perishes in the Hollow Purple attack, Sukuna survives, even after losing a hand. Sukuna explains how Gojo’s death is thanks to Mahoraga’s adaptability. After Mahoraga is hit with an attack, it takes a certain amount of time to process and adapt to it. Being hit by the attack again speeds up the process. Since Sukuna has no way to bypass Gojo’s Infinity, he has to use Mahoraga as a “model”. As Mahoraga adapts to Gojo’s inviolability, it neutralizes its own cursed energy to nullify the effect of Infinity. Using the Shikigami’s adaptability, Sukuna hits Gojo with a world-slashing Dismantle. However, the attack’s target isn’t Gojo but the space around him. Just by being in the space, Gojo is cut in half and killed by Sukuna. Hence, the crown of victory is immediately passed on to Sukuna. Gojo declared his victory even before the battle Gojo’s arrogance and confidence stem from his unparalleled strength. In Chapter 3, Yuji asks Gojo if he can win against Sukuna. Gojo says that if the King of Curses had the power of all 20 fingers, the fight would be challenging, but he would win in the end. Even moments before the battle, Gojo declares his imminent victory. This shows how much Gojo believes in his own strength. What’s odd about it is that Sukuna only has the power of 19 fingers, whereas Gojo’s abilities are amplified to 120% thanks to Utahime’s cursed technique. However, during his conversation with Geto, Gojo claims that Sukuna is too strong and doesn’t need Megumi’s powers to defeat him. The strongest sorcerer alive even feels sorry for the King of Curses, who didn’t have a chance to display his true strength – meaning Sukuna held back while Gojo was going all out. But in a large part of the fight, Sukuna has to rely on Mahoraga’s adaptability, and that’s how he managed to get the upper hand. The battle between Sukuna and Gojo confirms that the King of Curses is the strongest of them all. But that doesn’t change the fact that he has no way to bypass Gojo’s Infinity without using Mahoraga. If he has, it hasn’t been hinted as of yet since Sukuna himself confesses his inability to counter Infinity. Why is Gojo’s death in Jujutsu Kaisen so underwhelming? Gojo’s death is off-screened, so being unable to see his final moments is unfair. Considering Gojo’s influence, his death could be executed in a much better way. First off, he literally dies off-screen. We don’t even see how and when the attack hit him. Seeing the end result was shocking, but at the same time, it didn’t make sense at all. It was difficult to process what transpired in the battle, which resulted in our beloved character ending up in such a horrible state. We don’t even get to see Gojo saying his final words to his students. Furthermore, the fight between the two wasn’t some personal vendetta, but the future of the Jujutsu society rests on the outcome. Therefore, Gojo’s death fails to meet the level of impact it should’ve created. As one of the most popular characters, he didn’t manage to accomplish any of his goals. Not only that, but we don’t see reactions from his students and the other sorcerers. The fight is being broadcast to everyone thanks to Mei Mei’s cursed technique. We only see Yuji’s heartbroken expression and Yuta drawing out his sword while Maki tries to calm him. But what about the others? The lack of reaction fails to create the emotional impact needed to follow up with the tragedy of Gojo’s death in Jujutsu Kaisen. Despite that, the entire fight had a perfect pace until chapter 235, but the ending seemed rushed. The only good thing was that Gojo didn’t regret dying at the hands of someone stronger. Even in Chapter 251, the series has yet to show any reaction from Gojo’s students to his death. Jujutsu Kaisen had already set the stage for Gojo’s death Gege had foreshadowed Gojo’s death several times. Nonetheless, Gojo’s death wasn’t suddenly incorporated into Jujutsu Kaisen. The series hinted Sukuna was stronger than Gojo in the Shibuya Incident Arc. After sealing Gojo in the Prison Realm, Kenjaku revealed if the sealing didn’t work, he had Sukuna as a “contingency plan,” meaning he had faith that the ancient sorcerer could defeat Gojo. Additionally, there are also reasons to believe that Gojo’s death may have been pre-planned. Gojo’s Six Eyes allowed him to see the flow of cursed energy in extreme detail and to use that flow to read cursed techniques. Hence, there’s no way he didn’t know the difference in their power during the fight. In Chapter 250, Sukuna also reveals he has low cursed energy due to his fight with Gojo. Yuta also knows that if Gojo hadn’t damaged the King of Curses so much, he and Yuji would’ve died by now. This gives rise to the possibility that maybe Gojo intended to clear a path for his students all along. After all, he has immense faith in his students and considers them to have the potential to surpass him maybe someday. Whatever the case may be, it is irrefutable that Gojo is the strongest character Sukuna has defeated. Maybe that will change soon after Yuji awakens his powers. Until then, the title of the greatest opponent has been Satoru Gojo. Here’s a quick guide if you want to know more about the Jujutsu Kaisen manga ending.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo had one way of surviving the battle, but no one noticed – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo had one way of surviving the battle, but no one noticed Gege Akutami/MAPPAThe battle of the strongest in Jujutsu Kaisen ended in Gojo’s ultimate defeat. However, no one noticed he had an extremely easy way of surviving the battle. The Shinjuku Showdown Arc in Jujutsu Kaisen featured one of the most hyped fights of recent times: the battle of the strongest. The clash continued for a few months, where both characters displayed immeasurable powers. However, despite all his strength, Gojo still lost the battle. The fight ended in a rather shocking way: in Chapter 235, Kusakabe declares Gojo the winner but the latter dies in Chapter 236. Sukuna used Mahoraga to adapt to Gojo’s Infinity and used “World Cutting Slash” on him. However, even though the fight ended a year ago, JJK fans still debate over whether Gojo could’ve survived or not. One fan points out how Gojo could’ve teleported out of the domain, which sparks another debate. Gojo’s Limitless provides him with an array of extraordinary abilities, including spatial manipulation to teleport long distances when certain conditions are met. He compresses the space between his location and the target destination. However, he can also teleport other people touching that space as well. The requirement is to draw a sorcery circle and have the people he wants to teleport stand inside the circle. Gojo used teleportation in JJK 0 to send Panda and Inumaki to the Jujutus Tech High School where Yuta was fighting Suguru Geto. Needless to say, not every fan believes there was a possibility Gojo could’ve used this ability. One fan wrote, “Sukuna won’t allow him teleport same way he didn’t allow him away In a close domain infinity is neutralized and with the sure hit canceling each other 4 arms Sukuna is going to have a good time.” Another said, “I think it was mentioned he can’t do that inside veils and domains right? That’s why he had to teleport Panda and Inumaki outside the veil in JJK 0 and then they broke in and in the S1 exchange event too he couldn’t teleport inside the veil or am I just misremembering.” However, one more fan chimed in, “That would be true if it wasn’t for the fact Sukuna’s domain isn’t enclosed in a barrier. The whole point of it is that you can enter and exit.” Throughout the fight, Sukuna used an Open Barrier Domain, which would’ve been easy to get in and out for someone like Gojo. His death was off-screen and no one really what happened to Gojo in his final moment. Jujutsu Kaisen manga will be ending in a few weeks, so find out the MVP of the final fight against the villains.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo confusion in final arc has been cleared up – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo confusion in final arc has been cleared up CrunchyrollChapter 267 confirms Nobara is alive as she joins the battle against the strongest. However, Jujutsu Kaisen fans were still confused over one Gojo scene before the misunderstanding was finally cleared up. Jujutsu Kaisen manga brought back one of the fan-favorite characters, Nobara Kugisaki which has sparked a lot of controversy. Nobara’s death was hinted at in Chapter 265, but Gege never specifically confirmed it. It was only Yuji’s POV since he thought she died in Shibuya. However, some fans speculated that Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 222 was a foreshadowing of Nobara’s return where Gojo tells Ichiji and Shoko that it’s just the three of them left. However, Shoko says, “There’s one that hasn’t fully recovered yet.” Whether it’s a mistranslation or if the manga intended to have that dialogue, fans assumed Shoko was speaking about Nobara. However, the misunderstanding has finally been cleared up by a popular JJK fan account. The JJK fan account shares, “There seems to be a huge misinterpretation in the fandom. Shoko is NOT talking about Nobara here When Gojo says ‘It’s just three of US,’ he’s referring to his friend circle which consisted of Gojo, Geto, Shoko, Nanami, Haibara & Ijichi. Out of which, only Gojo, Shoko & Ijichi are left ‘There’s one who isn’t fully recovered yet,’ this means that they had not retrieved Geto’s body, which was being used by Kenjaku.” After one fan points out that Geto died a year ago and “recover” doesn’t make sense, the account explains, “Recover doesn’t only mean to heal from some wounds/medical condition. Recover also means to get back, reclaim, take back.” “I was wondering why everyone was posting this saying it was foreshadowing for Nobara’s return lol,” writes one fan. Another adds, “Well you can see why there’d be confusion right? I feel like this could’ve been translated better. Fully recovered could mean healed too. Either way thanks for clarifying.” For more on dark sorcery, have a look at how Chapter 267 confirms Sukuna’s defeat and an explainer on the Shinjuku Showdown Arc.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen goes on hiatus due to Gege Akutami’s sudden illness – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen goes on hiatus due to Gege Akutami’s sudden illness CrunchyrollThe Jujutsu Kaisen manga has announced a new hiatus as a result of Gege Akutami’s sudden illness. The Jujutsu Kaisen manga is currently in the final phase of the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. It is the most exciting fight of the series, beginning with the highly anticipated Gojo vs. Sukuna and continuing with the fight against the strongest, as all sorcerers play their part in the fight. The latest Chapter 261 features the biggest plot twist in JJK as Yuta takes over Gojo’s body. He has already planned to sacrifice everything for the sake of victory. The upcoming Chapter 262 continues the fight, but it’s only seven pages long. However, a leaker posted: “Bad news! Akutami Gege has fallen sick, so Jujutsu Kaisen manga will be on break for two weeks.” Gege was most likely unable to complete Chapter 262 before going on a hiatus. Although fans are itching to see the fight unfold, especially after such a cliffhanger in Chapter 216, they’ve also expressed their concern for the mangaka. One fan commented: “Color double spread, volume cover, WSJ magazine cover and a chapter. Yeah, he needed this break, man. Hopefully, he gets some rest.” “I hope he feels better soon. Wishing for his speedy recovery” another wrote. Considering how much hate has been directed at the mangaka since Gojo’s death, fans have rushed to his defense, with one fan writing, “It’s so disappointing how some of you wish this upon the man. You guys take fiction way too seriously. It isn’t even funny, to be honest. I wish Gege a speedy recovery. Let the man rest.” The next installment will follow the domain clash between Yuta and Sukuna. Check out the release date and spoiler speculation for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 262.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen goes on another break next week, and fans aren’t happy – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen goes on another break next week, and fans aren’t happy Gege Akutami/MAPPAJujutsu Kaisen fans are unhappy the manga is going on another break next week, having just returned from a hiatus. Gege Akutami took a long break after Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 262 due to his health issues. The manga returned after three weeks with Chapter 262 Part 2. Now, with only two chapters since, it’ll go on another break following Chapter 263. While unconfirmed, it’s believed this hiatus also stems from the author’s health. Another reason might be the mangaka preparing for the end of the Shinjuku Showdown Arc, i.e. the final Jujutsu Kaisen arc. Whatever the reason may be, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 264 will be released on July 28, 2024, one week after it was supposed to come out. This has many fans upset and complaining about the frequent breaks, blaming it for ruining the story’s pacing. “Gege’s writing isn’t good enough to be taking breaks like this,” wrote one user on X/Twitter, with another joining, “Bruh what, a chapter and a half then a break week after 3 weeks. Gege got some nerve.” “These breaks, fights leading to nothing… IDK, man.. this killed the hype for me,” commented a third. A fourth fan agreed, “I’m about to start acting up bro, I thought his health was good now.” A major reason behind fans’ impatience is the cliffhanger of Chapter 263. The chapter ended with the group carrying out their final plan to save Megumi by having Hana (and Angel) use Jakob’s Ladder on Sukuna. If the plan works, the Zenin heir may finally be free of the ancient sorcerer. This is a very interesting turn of events, especially since the manga’s ending soon. And that’s why – despite the prevalent criticism – many are rooting for the author. As one such fan commented, “After 19 pages, Gege deserves good rest. We ain’t complaining.” Another wrote, “I pray he gets rest and stays in good health.” Given how hectic his schedule is, Gege Akutami certainly deserves his due rest. All fans want is for him to get better and give his acclaimed manga a satisfactory conclusion.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen gives an unexpected glimpse of Gojo’s childhood – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen gives an unexpected glimpse of Gojo’s childhood CrunchyrollThe recent episode of Jujutsu Kaisen shows the first glimpse of Gojo’s childhood – but it’s not what one would expect from him. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 turns things around in the way imaginable. The first cour is about to conclude, which abruptly stops the heart-warming scenes fans have been used to so far. Toji finally makes his move, proving why he is called the “Sorcerer Killer.” The third episode also features the first-ever glimpse of Gojo’s childhood that wasn’t mentioned in the series before. As a child born with Six Eyes for the first time in 400 years, Satoru Gojo is nothing less than a celebrity in the Jujutsu world. The Gojo Clan took pride in his existence and boasted about his abilities to all the other clans. Naturally, Toji heard about this despite being an outcast of the Zenin clan. He goes to see Gojo and is quite surprised by the child’s ability to detect someone standing behind him. However, that’s not the only unexpected thing about Gojo’s childhood in Jujutsu Kaisen. The first glimpse of Gojo’s childhood in Jujutsu Kaisen is far from what we imagined Gojo’s eccentric personality is not a secret among JJK fandom. His God Complex and immaturity may be the reason his students and colleagues find him annoying, but his fans would disagree. Gojo has all the power in the world, but he still acts excessively funny. It’s rare to see an adult like him. After Season 2 debuted, we realize that Gojo’s personality has not changed much since 2006. Therefore, it’s only fair to imagine the child version of Gojo as someone hyperactive and even more over the top. However, the series doesn’t feature anything like that. The younger Gojo has a much more serious expression than he ever made as an adult. The first glimpse of Gojo’s childhood in Jujutsu Kaisen is brief and cannot help us analyse his personality completely. However, it’s clear as day that younger Gojo is much more mature than his adult version. The series never fully explores Gojo’s childhood, but it also never mentions that the strongest sorcerer alive was a mischievous kid. Honestly, it would have been truly intriguing to see how a child with such a stern expression became the fans’ beloved character that we see today. Jujutsu Kaisen can currently be streamed on Crunchyroll and Netflix.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen gets unexpected tribute from Godzilla x Kong – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen gets unexpected tribute from Godzilla x Kong CrunchyrollGodzilla x Kong has paid tribute to Jujutsu Kaisen with a special artwork from a fan. Jujutsu Kaisen is currently taking the world by storm with its massive popularity. Recently, the anime set a world record as the most in-demand animated series in the world. Now, it gets another proof of its popularity as a Godzilla x Kong artwork recreates an iconic scene from the anime. The official Twitter account of Godzilla x Kong recently posted an amazing artwork by a fan. The fanart portrays three major characters of the newly released movie, Godzilla x Kong: New Empire, highlighting them in individual colors. The beautiful fanart of Godzilla, Kong, and the Skar King greatly resembles an iconic scene from Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2. The well-known scene features Yuji, Todo, and Mahito in a similar fashion, with each showing off their fighting stance. The scene with Yuji, Todo, and Mahito is as important as it is iconic. It sets the stage for the two-vs-one fight and what every character brings to the table for the fight. The Godzilla x Kong fan masterfully recreated the scene by placing the Skar King as Mahito, Godzilla as Todo, and Kong as Yuji. The similarity between the two leaves no doubt that it was intentional and meant to be a tribute for Jujutsu Kaisen from Godzilla x Kong. Like Jujutsu Kaisen, Godzilla x Kong is also sweeping viewers off their feet. After having its premiere on March 29, the movie has already amassed $370 million at the box office. In just two weeks, it has earned its place as one of the five highest grossing movies of the year. As for Jujutsu Kaisen, the series is at its peak in the manga with everyone trying to defeat Sukuna. On the anime front, Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 was announced last year – keep an eye on our upcoming anime guide for what’s coming soon.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Who will be Gege Akutami’s next victim? – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Who will be Gege Akutami’s next victim? CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen’s Shibuya arc saw the deaths of several beloved characters, leaving fans to wonder: who’s next? Death, gore and heartbreak are now regular features in Jujutsu Kaisen, with cursed spirits as well as sorcerers often meeting their demise. No character is safe from Gege Akutami’s killing spree. As the manga continues, the death toll continues to rise. Resulting in fans speculating which of their beloved characters we’ll have to say goodbye to next. So, as we wait for the release of Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 245 on December 18, let’s take a look at some fan speculation of who will be the next victim. Fans speculate who will be Gege Akutami’s next victim Following the devastating deaths of characters including Nanami, Naobito and Nobara in Jujutsu Kaisen’s Shibuya arc, fans are waiting to see what will happen next. With Yuji Itadori and Hiromi Higuruma’s fight with Ryomen Sukuna likely coming up, and the Deadly Sentencing Domain Expansion already activated, yet another major character death will occur in Chapter 245. So, will Judgeman hand Sukuna the death penalty? Will Yuji and Higuruma battle against the King of Curses? Could Gege Akutami throw us yet another curveball? Fans have taken to Reddit to speculate who the next death will be, with one name appears slightly more than the others: Higuruma. How Higuruma could die According to fans, the next death is most likely to be Higuruma’s, with many speculating that he would die once the trial is over. Former defence attorney and Grade 1 sorcerer, Hiromi Higuruma, is one of the top players in the Culling Game and an enemy turned ally of Yuji Itadori. Chapter 244 saw Hiromi Higuruma unleash his full Cursed Technique and Domain Expansion to put Sukuna on trial for his crimes in a last ditch attempt to finally defeat him. The Jujutsu Kaisen manga has set up Higuruma as the one character who could kill Sukuna once and for all. And it all lies on the his shikigami known as Judgeman, who can find the defendant guilty of a capital crime, which enables Higuruma to use the Executioners sword – a weapon capable of killing even Sukuna with a single hit. However, Higuruma would still have to hit Sukuna with the sword. Which is no easy feat. So, if Higuruma and Sukuna do face off in Chapter 245 as predicted, we could also see Gege Akutami choosing the lawyer as the next character to die. Besides, as one fan says “Gege loves giving the MC more mental breakdowns.” And losing Higuruma would be a huge blow to Yuji Itadori. How Sukuna could die Another name that appeared is Sukuna himself. Although we can’t imagine anyone being able to defeat the King of Curses, some fans have speculated that Gege Akutami is going to go for the ultimate shock and wrap up his story once and for all. Of course, everyone and anyone is on the table when it comes to Gege Akutami, but one fan took to Reddit to present a viable theory. With Gojo gone, it could be Yuji Itadori’s destiny to kill Sukuna. And after the King of Curses killed everyone that Yuji cares about, it makes sense that Yuji would go full circle to avenge his friends with Higuruma’s executioner’s sword. Who do you think will die next in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 245? Make sure to check it out on December 18 to find out.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami surprised by this character’s popularity – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami surprised by this character’s popularity CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami didn’t expect this certain character to be so popular among fans. Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami often shares messages with fans about certain events or new updates. JJK is among the most popular new-gen Shone anime and manga series, and its popularity only continues to rise. The series is not only popular for its story, but also for the amazing level of individuality and depth each Jujutsu Kaisen character has. It does an impeccable job of making every single character memorable and glorious. Whether it is Yuji’s kindness, Gojo’s confidence, or Mei Mei’s greed for money, each character has a way to make their presence known. The complex power system in the series allows each character to possess unique abilities that also add to the overall charm of the series. However, while Gojo and Yuji being popular is kind of understandable, there is one character’s popularity that surprised even Gege Akutami. Which Jujutsu Kaisen character’s popularity surprised Gege Akutami? Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami expresses his shock over Toge Inumaki’s popularity among fans, especially female fans. On Valentines’ Day this week, JJK leaker shared old poll results on Twitter/X featuring the winners from 2020 and 2021. In both years, Toge Inumaki got eighth place, which is actually quite high considering he even won against Choso and Toji. However, the mangaka is unable to understand this since Toge rarely ever shows up in the series. He has almost no dialogues either since he has to speak in rice ball ingredients due to his Cursed Speech. It’s not just the Valentines’ Day poll; Toge ranks unusually high in the overall JJK popularity poll as well. In the first one, he snagged fourth place, ranking even higher than Nanami, Nobara, and Yuta. He ranked 6th and 8th in the second and third polls, respectively. Part of Toge’s popularity must come from Volume 0 of the manga, which was adapted into a prequel movie. The story delves deeper into Yuta’s and Toge’s friendship as the former finds it difficult to adapt to the Jujutsu world. However, Toge comforted Yuta and showed him kindness without even speaking to him at all. Now, Yuta is one of the few people who can understand Toge’s unique speech. After the Shibuya Incident, Toge almost disappeared from the story, appearing only once before the battle of the strongest. Nonetheless, his fans would love to see more of him again.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami supports animators amid schedule controversy – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami supports animators amid schedule controversy CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen’s recent episode received a lot of backlash from fans, but creator Gege Akutami thinks otherwise. Here’s what he has to say about the controversy. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 14 features the fight between Dagon and the sorcerers. We also see Mei Mei in action as she struggles against Kenjaku. The series reveals Naobito Zenin’s Projection Sorcery and what makes him strong enough to be the Zenin Clan head. However, even with Nanami, Maki, Naobito, and Megumi working together, Dagon proved to be too powerful for them. Ever since Season 2 started airing, the series has been delivering incredible episodes. The new art style also has fans appreciating the anime even more. Nonetheless, it’s impossible for any series not to receive backlash. While the animators have been doing an incredible job ever since the series started airing, the recent episode disappointed some fans. Amid the controversy, Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami stepped forward to support the animators. Gege Akutami shares thoughts on Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 14 Twitter user Soukatsu, popular for translating Gege Akutami’s interviews, messages, and any related Jujutsu Kaisen updates, shares the English version of the author’s latest comment on Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 14. In the message, Gege shares, “Thank you for season two, episode fourteen!! When the animation (in this case, the outline, the timing, and the actual drawings themselves) is so ridiculously good, I really do just laugh. I hope the people who have worked so incredibly hard for this whole experience and for this anime can be repaid more and more…..is all I have to say!!” He also didn’t forget to add a cute chibi sketch of Nanami and Mei Mei, who were the highlights of the episodes. Gege Akutami has always been supportive of the animators ever since the beginning. Before Season 2 began airing, fans were debating over the art styles of Seasons 1 and 2. However, the mangaka supported it wholeheartedly. The tight schedule of MAPPA animators is no secret among anime fans. The animation studio is always at the center of controversy as the general public condemns it for overworking animators. One of the animators shared on Twitter/X, “I worked on episode #37 of JJK2 as an animation director/sakkan! I corrected 13 cuts of animation for episode 37, on top of doing two cuts of emergency sakkan, and six cuts of nigenga action animation in the climax! “The deadline was very tight, slightly more than three days, but thankfully, thanks to the support of the team, everything went smoothly! Of course, I also thank all of my friends’ support; it has been a very eventful past few weeks!” Many animators stepped forward to address the issue regarding the tight schedule. Fans also expressed disappointment regarding the animation. While they support the animators, most of the complaints are toward MAPPA. Nonetheless, the JJK fandom has again divided into two, as several others believe the animation wasn’t lagging in any way. How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023?

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami snubs Gojo in new volume – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami snubs Gojo in new volume CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen releases a new volume but Gege Akutami cleverly snubs Gojo from it. Here’s everything you need to know. Jujutsu Kaisen’s creator Gege Akuatmi never hides his dislike for fans’ beloved Satoru Gojo. Whether it’s a joke or if he literally means it, the fact remains that despite Gojo’s global popularity, he is still hated by the one who created him. Gojo was already popular when the series began, but his popularity dramatically increased in 2023 with the second season of the anime and the battle of the strongest in the manga. However, Gege Akutami would often appear salty whenever he mentioned Gojo. For example, while sharing a thank you note after the Hidden Inventory/Premature Death arc was aired, the mangaka called Gojo a mob character. Jujutsu Kaisen releases its Volume 25 this week, but one detail begs the question if Gege Akutami did it unintentionally or if he’s subtly expressing hatred for Gojo yet again. Delve deeper to find out more about it. Warning: Spoilers ahead! How did Gege Akutami snub Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 25? Whenever chapters are compiled into an entire volume, the mangaka would often share extra character art or more details about the story. Just like any other volume of Jujutsu Kaisen, Gege Akutami shared a lot of character art, but not a single one of them featured Gojo. Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 25 includes Chapter 221 where Gojo is unsealed, which is an iconic moment for him. It’s also important to note that he returned to the series after several years. We all know that Gojo was sealed in the Shibuya Incident arc. However, no one would’ve imagined that Gojo would disappear for this long. Since the latest volume is extremely crucial for this character, it’s even more unprecedented that the mangaka didn’t add extra art for him. Especially considering that even Toji got a special feature with a halo over his head alongside a note “thanks to me.” Furthermore, Gege also subtly confirms Yuji’s controversial scene with an extra art of Kusakabe enjoying being in a younger body. Apart from these two, there’s also extra arts of Shoko, Kogane, Tengen, and Sukuna.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami slammed by fans for killing beloved character – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami slammed by fans for killing beloved character CrunchyrollThe latest spoilers confirm the death of a beloved character, which hasn’t sat well with Jujutsu Kaisen fans, who’ve barraged Gege Akutami with hate comments. Jujutsu Kaisen has wrapped up its biggest fight ever, the battle of the strongest. The strongest sorcerer alive and the King of Curses were evenly matched. Neither side showed signs of backing down. The fight involving Gojo and Sukuna was foreshadowed since the beginning of the series, so one can only imagine the excitement of fans when it came out. Chapter 235 ends with Gojo’s apparent victory, and fans rejoiced for almost two weeks. Although many worried about Gojo’s fate, the chapter ends with Kusabae declaring Gojo’s victory. The strongest sorcerer alive blew up Shinjuku to take down Mahoraga and Sukuna together. However, just as fans thought the battle ended with their favorite character’s victory, the author drops a huge bomb in the upcoming chapter. After the leaks, fans found out their favorite character died a tragic death. Hence, Gege Akutami can’t escape the fate of being widely criticized by Jujutsu Kaisen fans across the world. Gege Akutami trends as Jujutsu Kaisen fans criticize major death Twitter/X is flooded with hate comments toward the JJK mangaka. Fans are badly criticizing his work after witnessing the gruesome death of their beloved character. Killing off fan-favorite characters is nothing new to Gege. However, this time around, the battle was incredibly hyped. Gojo winning against Sukuna was not just a matter of personal vendetta, but the future of the Jujutsu world rested on his shoulders. However, his death came as too much of a shock after chapter 235 when fans were widely celebrating Gojo’s victory. It was a given that the upcoming chapter would be something interesting. Chapter 236 was also delayed as per Gege’s schedule. Therefore, no one expected to see Satoru Gojo cut in half as soon as the highly anticipated chapter arrived. Many criticize how poorly he executed the death of such an important character. After all, Gojo’s influence in the series can never be denied. It’s not a secret among Jujutsu Kaisen fans that Gege truly despises their beloved Sensei. Therefore, his death deals them a heavy blow. Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236 will be officially released on September 24. You can read the spoilers here.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami shares thoughts on Season 2 Shibuya arc – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami shares thoughts on Season 2 Shibuya arc CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is only just transitioning into the Shibuya Incident arc, and the creator, Gege Akutami, has again shared their thoughts about the animation. Jujutsu Kaisen made its grand return last week with all new episodes featuring the Shibuya Incident arc. Episodes 6 and 7 will be the prelude of the incident, while the actual tragedy will begin in Episode 8. There’s no doubt that MAPPA will again do an incredible with the animation. Ever since Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 began, Gege Akutami has expressed their full support regarding the change in art style and everything else. When Season 2 just came out, Gege expressed their satisfaction with a thank you note to the animators. Additionally, their comment after the flashback arc ended was even more intriguing as they appreciated the level of care and detail put into the animation. Now that the Shibuya arc has begun in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2, here’s what Gege Akutami had to say about it. Gege Akutami praises the transition to Shibuya arc in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 After the ending of the Hidden Inventory/Premature Death arc, Gege expressed their anticipation regarding the Shibuya Incident arc of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2. Gege shared: “Everything has been created with such painstaking care and detail. If they’d told me that Season 2 would be a flashback arc only, I wouldn’t have doubted for a second. I can’t believe we’re also getting Shibuya after all this.” The message concerning the new arc came out a bit later than expected. Gege has been busy with the manga and cannot watch the episodes as soon as they air. It’s true that they have been extremely busy with the ongoing fight between Gojo and Sukuna in the manga. According to the usual schedule, Gege should have taken a break after chapter 234, but they didn’t delay since 235 was going to conclude the fight. The manga is in its final stretch, and with the battle of the strongest finally over, the author is more busy than ever. However, after watching them, Gege has made sure to express their thoughts Jujutsu Kaisen fans. Gege absolutely loves MAPPA’s animation for Season 2, and the new arc looks even more impressive than before. The Shibuya Incident has yet to begin, so fans can expect a lot of thrilling episodes that will air till 28 December 2023.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami’s salty reaction to Gojo winning Valentine’s poll – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami’s salty reaction to Gojo winning Valentine’s poll CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami always makes sure to express his dislike for Gojo whenever he notices fans’ love toward him. Here’s how the mangaka reacted to Gojo winning the Valentine’s Day poll. Jujutsu Kaisen fans are all too familiar with Gege Akutami’s dislike toward Satoru Gojo, the series’ most popular character. Time and again, the mangaka would drop comments about fans’ beloved characters, making them speechless with the evident dislike toward the strongest sorcerer of the modern era. The eccentric instructor always ranks high in popularity polls, and fans absolutely adore him. His global popularity not only comes from his lovable personality but also from his appearance, which fans always gush over. However, Gojo’s biggest hater is actually the one who created him. Whether Gege seriously hates Gojo or if it’s just for publicity, the mangaka’s comments can actually be amusing at times. Delve deeper to find out how Gege Akutami reacted to Gojo winning the Valentines’ Day poll of Jujutsu Kaisen characters. Gege Akutami is unhappy with Gojo winning any Jujutsu Kaisen poll On Valentine’s Day this week, JJK leaker shared old poll results on Twitter/X featuring the winners from 2020 and 2021. In 2020, Gojo won first place, and the next year, he got third place. Gojo was sealed in January 2020, completely disappearing from the story for almost three and a half years. He returned in May 2023 and started the battle of the strongest. However, even though Gojo wasn’t part of the storyline, he was still as popular as ever. Gege making salty comments about Gojo isn’t new to Jujutsu Kaisen fans. In 2019, Gojo won the popularity poll during the Jump Festa. Gege shared a special art along with a piece of advice to Gojo fans, “Those who voted for Gojo. Especially women. Here’s some friendly advice. Pick Nanami.” Unlike Gojo, Nanami was Gege’s favorite character. Hence, when Nanami won the poll in 2021, the mangaka shared, “I’m relieved that Nanami’s popular.” This is a far contrast to his comment about Gojo: “I guess he isn’t dead yet!” It’s not just the Valentines’ Day poll; Gojo ranks really high in the overall JJK popularity poll as well. In the first one, he snagged third place. He ranked 2nd and 3rd in the second and third polls, respectively. He also won the Animage popularity poll in 2023. In 2023, Gojo not only got unsealed in the manga, but he fought the best fight of the series. Additionally, his past arc in the second season of anime, showed his youthful side, making him all the more likable.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami praises Gojo in recent message – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami praises Gojo in recent message CrunchyrollThe author’s hatred for Gojo isn’t a secret among fans. However, in the recent episode of Jujutsu Kaisen, Gege Akutami surprisingly praises Gojo. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2’s Shibuya Incident arc is getting more intense than ever. The situation looks dire as the strongest sorcerer alive falls for the enemy’s trap and gets sealed inside the Prison Realm. The episode begins with the fan-favorite extra manga panel from chapter 88, where other characters answer one question, “What is Satoru Gojo to you?” Then, we see Gojo going all out against the curses. Gege Akutami always shares a message after the Jujutsu Kaisen episode airs. This time, he surprisingly praises Gojo, which is a bit uncharacteristic for the author. Gege Akutami shares his thoughts about Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 9 The entire episode centers around Gojo, where he first fights the curses, kills Hanami, and then meets Suguru Geto – only to find out about the imposter. Gege always praises the animators’ works, and this week is no different. MAPPA doesn’t hold back anything in order to bring out the scariest version of Gojo. Gege expressed his excitement, saying: “Thanks for Season 2, Episode 9. Gojo was way cooler and scarier than in the manga!! The timing when Jogo came out of the smoke and his arm regrew was so badass I actually laughed. And the lip-syncing was perfect. I got so hyped!” It’s rare for Gege to praise anything that’s related to Gojo. He would always joke around whenever something bad would happen to him in the manga. Also, before this, his thoughts on Episode 5 (end of flashback arc) were really salty when it came to Gojo. He praises everything about the episode but then goes ahead and calls him a “mob character.” Animators have to hand draw and reproduce the manga panels in the best way possible. As one of the best animation studios in Japan, MAPPA’s work is highly regarded. Gege has been incredibly supportive of the studio’s hard work since Season 2 began. He also came forward to express his support for the change in art style when people debated whether it was a good decision.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami refuses to delay next chapter – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami refuses to delay next chapter YouTube/TOHOGege Akutami usually takes breaks after every three chapters, but Jujutsu Kaisen has been releasing consecutive chapters lately. Here’s why the mangaka isn’t taking any breaks this week. Jujutsu Kaisen is currently featuring the most crucial fight in history – the battle of the strongest. As Gojo and Sukuna clash, the fate of the Jujutsu world hangs in the balance. Gojo had to take on another huge burden as soon as he got unsealed. However, despite the severity of the situation, both sides are enjoying the thrill of the fight as they refuse to back down. The recent chapter shows that the fight is even more intense as Gojo faces off against three opponents. The battle of the strongest has been going on for about four months. According to the manga’s usual schedule, Jujutsu Kaisen was supposed to take a break after chapter 234. Delve deeper to find out more about it. Gege Akutami wants to drop next week’s Jujutsu Kaisen chapter without any delay Mangaka often takes breaks between three or four chapters for a lot of reasons. It helps them take a breather out of their busy schedule. Some even use the time off for research or planning for future plots. The busy schedule of mangaka isn’t a secret in the community. Many put their work above their health. The busy schedule of mangaka often leads to severe health issues, as seen in the case of Berserk’s Keitaro Miura. Therefore, these breaks may delay the chapters for one week every once in a while, but it’s always necessary for the artists. Gege Akutami isn’t any different, as the series always goes on at least a week-long hiatus after every three chapters. JJK chapter 232 was released after a break. Therefore, according to this pattern, chapter 235 should’ve been delayed, but Gege has surprised fans with another consecutive chapter. The only plausible reason behind it is that the battle is nearing its end. According to the JJK leaker, chapter 234 ends with the editor’s comment that the battle goes to a climax. While the comment doesn’t guarantee that the fight will end in chapter 235, we’re at least sure that it’s drawing to its conclusion. Since the fight will end soon, it seems Gege Akutami wants to avoid more delays as Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 235 will be released on its usual schedule. However, there’s always a chance that the mangaka will delay the chapter after that. How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023?

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami finally reveals Gojo’s “final moment” – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami finally reveals Gojo’s “final moment” CrunchyrollSince Gojo dies off-screen in Jujutsu Kaisen, his final moment remains a mystery. However, Gege Akutami may have revealed it at last. Although Jujutsu Kaisen is popular for its unpredictable plot, the most shocking moment in the entire manga is Gojo’s death. It’s not simply because he suddenly died in the battle, but it’s due to the way it was executed. In Chapter 235, Gojo’s victory is imminent, but the next chapter begins with Gojo being in limbo. Ultimately, we find out he’s actually died. Although Sukuna praises Gojo and explains Mahoraga’s abilities, his defeat still remains mysterious. Since Gojo’s death happens off-screen, it doesn’t give fans a full picture of his final moment. The series doesn’t even reveal how and when the attack hit him. Seeing the end result is shocking, but at the same time, it is difficult to process what transpired in the battle, which resulted in our beloved character ending up in such a horrible state. However, Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami may have solved the mystery of Gojo’s final moment through this new art. Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 26 extra seems to show Gojo in his final moment Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 26 will be released on April 4, 2024, and will include Chapters 228 to 236. The series is already hyping up Gojo with a new volume cover and a special manga music video centering around the strongest sorcerer of the modern era. Even though Sukuna won the battle of the strongest, all glory goes to Satoru Gojo – and rightfully so. As always, the volume will cover additional art and might even feature extended chapters. Popular JJK account reveals a non-manga art of Gojo. It will be the first initial page of the upcoming volume. If one were to look closely, Gojo appears shocked in this panel. He is facing upwards, which is the same as when he died. Additionally, although his eye is wide, it appears he’s about to form a smile. And it’s not a secret among JJK fans that Gojo died with a smile on his face, satisfied after using his powers to the fullest. Although several hints point toward the possibility of this art being Gojo’s final moment, nothing is certain as of yet. The sketch is rough, and only half of his face is being shown. Although the manga never showed how Gojo felt before the world-cutting slash hit him, he must’ve been surprised since that attack was completely unexpected. Sukuna used a Binding Vow to end him. Additionally, Gojo always felt lonely, and the void in his life was only filled after giving it his all against Sukuna. That explains why he was smiling.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami finally explains manga’s meaning – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami finally explains manga’s meaning CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen has always been a rather complex story, and creator Gege Akutami has now explained the manga’s true meaning. Here’s what he had to say. Jujutsu Kaisen is one of the most popular Shonen series in the world. The manga is currently in its final stretch, and the anime’s Season 2 has been making headlines every week. The anime is currently featuring the Shibuya Incident arc, and it’s getting more intense than ever. The story has come a long way since it began, as it gradually becomes darker and darker. The series also gets sidetracked from the main storyline as it follows Yuta’s and Gojo’s tales in between. However, the complexity of the storyline, the notion of good and evil, and the power of curses all have deep meanings behind them. As things in Shibuya continue to spiral downward, Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami has shared the true meaning behind the story. Delve deeper to find out more. Gege Akutami’s message about Jujutsu Kaisen’s real meaning According to Reddit, Gege Akutami said: “If there was one thing to mention, it was that no one holds the ultimate truth, the ‘good guys’ as well as the ‘bad guys.’ Some seek to kill the hero out of pure selfishness, but others are led to this decision by logical reasoning. If no one is really right, then no one is wrong either. Each character is guided by his own ethics.” The Shibuya Incident begins due to the villains’ selfishness in trying to seal away their biggest threat, Satoru Gojo. They also kill off several innocent civilians and even some sorcerers. However, when the same thing happens to their fellow curses, they all swear to seek revenge. Dagon and Jogo were especially remorseful about the death of their friends. Furthermore, Mimiko and Nanako lived most of their lives according to Geto’s motives. They may be murderers like him, but they loved him nonetheless. In the end, they died in a futile attempt to set Geto free. Toji also killed himself in Shibuya so he wouldn’t continue to harm Megumi. He was an assassin who killed Riko 12 years ago and also attempted to kill Gojo. And let’s not forget fans’ beloved Suguru Geto, whose ideals were distorted thanks to the cruel Jujutsu world. Thinking about these characters, it’s true that the story blurs the line between good and evil – as the author mentioned.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami expresses his hatred for Gojo in recent message – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami expresses his hatred for Gojo in recent message CrunchyrollGege Akutami hating Satoru Gojo is no secret among JJK fans. In this recent note about Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 5, the creator again expresses his hatred towards fans’ beloved Gojo. Jujutsu Kaisen’s strongest sorcerer alive – Satoru Gojo – maybe a fan-favorite character, but that doesn’t mean everyone likes him. Yuji and Yuta seem to respect him genuinely, but that’s about it. Most characters and even the series’ creator Gege Akutami have expressed dislike toward Gojo. In fact, Gege has a reputation for openly expressing his dislike toward Gojo. The eccentric instructor has always ranked high in popularity polls, and fans absolutely adore his unique personality. Gojo is also the series’ strongest character and the only hope to defeat the villain Sukuna. In such a situation, hating Gojo may seem to be out of the ordinary. Although Gege has never explained the reason behind his hatred, it could be because of Gojo’s God Complex. In his recent message about Season 2 Episode 5 animation, Gege once again expresses his hatred toward Gojo. Gege calls Gojo a mob character in his recent message about the Season 2 animation Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 officially wraps up Gojo’s Past arc with Episode 5. As such, the manga author Gege Akutami shares a note to fans about the animation. Gege has expressed his satisfaction with the second season before. He is absolutely thrilled with the new art style and compliments director Shōta Goshozono and the staff members. He again expresses his gratitude toward the amazing animation and the level of care and detail the staff has put into each scene. Gege also shares his anticipation toward the Shibuya Incident arc, which will officially debut on 31 August 2023. However, as he compliments everyone, Gege doesn’t forget to pass a sarcastic comment about Gojo. He calls fans’ beloved Gojo a mob character who got top-tier animation. Mob characters in anime refer to side characters that viewers easily miss. These characters don’t have a significant role to play in the story and are simply there to add to the background. Regardless of Gege’s claim, the “mob character” title doesn’t fit Gojo at all. At this point, fans are not surprised at all about Gege hating on Gojo so openly. Many even believe that the reason Gojo was sealed for so long is not for plot development but because Gege doesn’t want to give him more screen time. Judging by his recent comment, it’s not a baseless speculation. How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023?

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami explains new character in Chapter 239 – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami explains new character in Chapter 239 NetflixGege Akutami introduces a new minor character in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 239 – so here’s what he has to say about them. Jujutsu Kaisen manga has recently sidelined the battle against the strongest. Sukuna, the King of Curses, has already killed two powerful sorcerers and doesn’t intend to stop at all. As such, it’s up to the remaining sorcerers to stop this embodiment of disaster. However, Sukuna isn’t the only threat that the sorcerers are facing right now. Even though he hasn’t appeared in a few months, Kenjaku remains one of the primary antagonists of the series. His plan is to merge the Japanese population with Tengen. And it seems he will soon take action to launch his plan. In Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 239, Kenjaku encounters a new character. Delve deeper to find out what Gege Akutami has to say about them. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 239 introduces a new Culling Game player Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 239 introduces a new character, only to kill her later on. In the recent Mangaka Musings published by Viz, Gege Akutami comments, “This lady actually appeared in a rejected version of the chapter 1 storyboards. Heh heh!” This comment is from Weekly Shonen Jump Issue 47. Every week, the magazine includes several manga chapters and the author’s comments along with it. The Mangaka Musings are compiled in one place where the creators share their thoughts about their series, anime, or any random thing. The recent chapter begins with a girl running away from Kenjaku. She condemns Kenjaku for bringing her back to life, only to kill her later on. However, Kenjaku easily traps her and says even though he doesn’t have any particular feelings toward her, it’s a shame to kill people who are too good. She dies within 4-5 pages, and then he moves on to kill Iori Hazenoki. It seems that the series won’t be revealing her name or powers. Gege probably used her in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 239 to invoke some curiosity among fans. Kenjaku had revived several ancient sorcerers for the Culling Game Arc, so it’s only natural that the series couldn’t introduce every one of them. The nationwide curse a few years back that caused Tsumiki to be in a coma was all just to prepare for this event.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami explains Gojo vs Sukuna panels – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami explains Gojo vs Sukuna panels TOHO/CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen’s creator Gege Akutami has explained the composition and angles when drawing manga by using Gojo vs Sukuna as an example. Here’s how he describes the most iconic fight of the series. Jujutsu Kaisen concludes the battle of the strongest with the tragic death of fans’ beloved Satoru Gojo. The fight explains why Sukuna is hailed as the “King of Curses.” However, despite Gojo’s death, the fact remains that it was the most highly anticipated fight in the entire series. The fight was foreshadowed in the very beginning. And it’s safe to say that Gege went all out with the incredible artwork and techniques. The battle of the strongest went on for about 14 chapters, and it features various intense moments in every chapter. Gege Akutami explains the composition and angles when drawing manga panels in a recent interview featured in the Shonen Jump Weekly Issue. He uses the iconic fight between Gojo and Sukuna as an example. Delve deeper to find out more about it. Gege Akutami uses Gojo vs Sukuna panels to explain the composition of Jujutsu Kaisen manga Gege Akutami is known for the unique art style in Jujutsu Kaisen manga. The gritty details, dynamic panels, and powerful action sequences contribute to the success of the series. In the interview, Gege was asked to explain the difference between great drawings and drawings that are easy to understand. Twitter user Soukatsu, popular for translating Gege Akutami’s interviews, messages, and any related Jujutsu Kaisen updates, shared the English version of the interview from the weekly issue. Gege explained: “It’s about having the ability to convey what’s happening in a situation. Good artists usually already have this ability. But sometimes, because they’re so skilled, they choose compositions that are difficult to both illustrate and read because they have so many perspective options available to them. “Manga is also basically black and white still images. So, angles and points of view that would be totally fine for photography or video may not translate as well to manga. I have to keep that in mind as well.” He also detailed the different Gojo vs Sukuna panels in Jujutsu Kaisen manga: “1. Long (wide shots): In panel G, the scene where Gojo and Sukuna are standing back-to-back in the domain is drawn from above. By drawing the background and the characters’ full bodies, we can get an overhead view of where they’re standing and their relation to the space around them. “2. Middle (medium shots) Middle angles are used in panels A, B, D, and E to capture Gojo and Sukuna’s upper bodies. By showing the flow of movement of their arms and torsos, the reader can get a clear understanding of what’s happening during their fight. Middle angles are good for when you want to showcase movement! “3. Close-ups Gojo’s face is drawn close-up in the C and F panels, with panel C showing a chill expression and panel showing an unsettled expression. The clever use of emotional contrast between the two panels makes Gojo’s shift in emotions more clear!” Lastly, Gege Akutami shared his final thoughts: “To convey a situation clearly in an illustration, you can use three different angles: long, middle, and close-up! But don’t stick to just one angle. As shown in the Jujutsu Kaisen spread, it’s important to understand the roles of each angle and utilize them in a balanced manner to illustrate the situation clearly.” How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023 Crunchyroll is the world’s best hub for streaming anime, whether it’s One Piece, Attack on Titan, or Jujutsu Kaisen.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami explains “dissonance” between characters – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami explains “dissonance” between characters CrunchyrollGege Akutami uses the dissonance between Jujutsu Kaisen characters for storytelling. Here’s how he explains it using Maki and Mai as examples. Jujutsu Kaisen’s incredible storytelling stems from its complex power of curses and intriguing character design. Gege Akutami thoroughly explores the connections between characters. As a Shonen series, he perfectly balances one character’s bonds with someone and their conflicts with the others. Gojo and Geto were best friends, but circumstances forced them to follow separate paths. Their stories add depth to their characters. Likewise, the first interaction between Yuji and Nobara was less than pleasant, but they soon became reliable friends. Gege uses “dissonance” between Jujutsu Kaisen characters as a means to create drama in the series. In an interview with Weekly Shonen Jump Issue 45, he explains the importance of these conflicts. He also uses the relationship between the series’ twin sisters as an example. Gege Akutami explains the dissonance between Jujutsu Kaisen characters Twitter user Soukatsu, popular for translating Gege Akutami’s interviews, messages, and any related Jujutsu Kaisen updates, shared the English version of the interview from the weekly issue 45. In one of his previous comments, Gege Akutami said, “You can’t create drama if you’re afraid of dissonance between characters.” When asked about the merits of depicting dissonance, he explains, Dissonance doesn’t mean that you have to air out [the characters’] shortcomings or manufacture hostility. “By nature, people aren’t capable of fully understanding others completely, but in manga, it’s essentially the single creator depicting multiple characters, so if they’re not careful, the characters can start to have an unrealistic level of mutual understanding. “It’s possible for a character to stand out completely on their own, but in the end, there’s nothing quite like that chemistry between two (or more) people, and for that to happen, the nature of the people can’t really be the same. “This may lead to apprehension over depicting misunderstandings and dissonance, making a character less likable for a while, or making the mood of the work itself feel heavier, but I don’t think it’s a path you can avoid, so let’s just face it head on.“ The example of Maki and Mai’s relationship To support his statement, Gege uses the relationship between Maki and Mai as an example. The twin sisters had to endure extreme prejudice and discrimination within their clan. Mai was introduced as a unlikable character who always hated Maki. But later, she turned out to be really pitiful and only ever wanted a peaceful life with Maki. Which is why her tragedy and sacrifice were extremely heartbreaking. Gege explains: “An example of drama born from the dissonance between two characters, Mai Zenin, and Maki Zein. “Mai Zenin: the younger sister that can use cursed energy but didn’t want to become a sorcerer, has a sensitive and generally negative personality. Maki Zenin: the elder sister who can’t use cursed energy but always wanted to become a jujutsu sorcerer, a strong rebellious spirit at her core and independent-minded. “1. Conflict between sisters In their fight scene during the Goodwill Exchange, the conflict between Maki and Mai is highlighted. Dissonance occurs due to the differences in their personalities and abilities. “2. Mai’s true feelings Mai’s true feelings about not wanting her big sister to leave her are revealed. Dissonance is what emphasizes Mai’s true feelings. “3. The bond between sisters The scene where Mai sacrifices herself to save Maki’s life depicts the love between sisters that overcomes the dissonance and creates a powerful sense of drama. “Conclusion Dissonance between characters is bound to occur in stories in which multiple characters appear. You can create powerful and wide ranges of dramas with all your characters by utilizing dissonance rather than avoiding it.” How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023 Crunchyroll is the world’s best hub for streaming anime, whether it’s One Piece, Attack on Titan, or Jujutsu Kaisen.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami explains Aoi Todo’s character – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami explains Aoi Todo’s character CrunchyrollAoi Todo is one of the fan-favorite characters of Jujutsu Kaisen – here’s how Gege Akutami described him in a recent interview. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is currently featuring the Shibuya Incident arc – so it won’t be long before fans get to see Aoi Todo in action. Despite having very little screen time, Todo’s popularity cannot be denied. Because of his raw strength and tricky cursed technique, he is the perfect partner to lend support to Yuji in a battle. Todo’s guidance has clearly helped Yuji make a better fighter, and he will continue to do so in the ongoing Shibuya Incident arc. The anime may have yet to introduce Todo in Season 2, but manga fans are already aware of what’s going to happen. Although there wasn’t a Jujutsu Kaisen chapter in Weekly Shonen Jump Issue no. 46, the magazine published Gege Akutami’s interview. He explained the importance of plot twists in a storyline and how Todo’s appearance in Shibuya depicts that. Gege Akutami explains the importance of plot twists in the storyline of Jujutsu Kaisen In the recent interview, Gege was asked to elaborate on one of his previous comments, saying, “The plot feels like it overpowers the composition.” Twitter user Soukatsu, popular for translating Gege Akutami’s interviews, messages, and any related Jujutsu Kaisen updates, shared the English version of the interview from the weekly issue 46. “The plot twist! The storyline gimmick came across as fine, but the way the characters were portrayed didn’t quite match up with it. Even when there is no dramatic plot twist, characters can still be carried along by a plot that inexplicably continues to progress,” he said. “Honestly speaking, though, in that sort of situation, as long as a plot is interesting, the work itself will still have value and be appreciated. But what makes readers want to keep coming back to a work again and again isn’t so much a remarkable storyline. “It’s their attachment to the characters and that feeling of I want to see this character again, so I want to develop characters and plot in a more well-balanced manner.” Using Aoi Todo’s character as an example Aoi Todo’s unexpected friendship with Yuji has always been loved among fans. Furthermore, his appearance in Shibuya is the highlight of the arc. Todo is a major reason why Yuji is alive in the first place. In the same interview, Gege Akutami shared: “Take a look at how Todo came to Itadori’s aid in his fight vs. Mahito in the Shibuya Incident!! This was an unexpected plot twist in which Todo appears before Itadori, who’d gone through loss and the death of his allies and whose spirit had been broken as he fought Mahito. But this surprise development isn’t jarring. The secrets of character depiction for Todo: “1. Increase character likeability. He cares about his friends, loves idols, and acts like an older brother, which makes Todo a charming and loveable character. It’s why it feels so great to see Todo come to the rescue. Create a character that readers want and adore by showing off their charm. “2. Clearly show the reasons for the character’s actions. Todo sees Itadori as his ‘best friend’ and gets along with him well due to their similar personalities and interests. It’s precisely because of this that Todo coming to Itadori’s aid in a tough situation is so believable. “Uncover the reason for a character’s actions based on their personality, values, and background. Conclusion In order to create a story development that brings a character to life, it’s necessary to build a foundation of previously accumulated character depictions.” How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023 Crunchyroll is the world’s best hub for streaming anime, whether it’s One Piece, Attack on Titan, or Jujutsu Kaisen.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami didn’t actually want to kill fan-favorite character – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami didn’t actually want to kill fan-favorite character CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen has a reputation for gut-wrenching deaths, but there’s one that creator Gege Akutami actually resisted at first. Those who survive in Jujutsu Kaisen are a rare breed. Strength alone doesn’t help anyone in that universe, where curses kill without discrimination. We’ve had many major Jujutsu Kaisen deaths, across sorcerers and curses, and Gege has opened up about one of the most crushing defeats, when Kento Nanami was killed. “Sometimes it feels like the script progresses and evolves depending on the characters themselves,” Gege reveals in an interview for the Jujutsu Kaisen exhibition in Tokyo. “I didn’t want Nanami to die at that point, but I was thinking that maybe there was no way around it, but Itadori burst in and well, you know how it went.” We do know how that went. Nanami gets heinously burned before his body is exploded during the Shibuya Incident Arc. It’s a real shock to the system, because he was an efficent sorcerer who was beloved by fans. Gege had to weigh up who gets narrative armor, and who doesn’t. “I originally felt that Nanami had surpassed the script but when I put it into words like this, Nanami was the motivation and Itadori was the one who overcame the script,” he says. Yuji is present when Nanami dies, so Gege is really saying some characters serve as motivation for others, and that became the case for those two. Narratively it works, but emotionally? It’s tough to forgive, but such is Jujutsu Kaisen. We recently found out Jujutsu Kaisen is ending soon, something that’s been in offing since the battle against Sukuna kicked off in earnest. The King of Curses is being worn down by the sorcerers, slowly but surely, although we reckon there’s a little while to go yet. Nonetheless, have a look at our guide to Chapter 264 to see what’s currently going on.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami confirms change in fan-favorite panel – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami confirms change in fan-favorite panel CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen’s manga will recreate the fan-favorite panel, and Gege Akutami just confirmed it. Here’s everything you need to know about it. Jujutsu Kaisen manga is currently featuring the fight (or maybe a comedy routine) between Takaba and Kenjaku. The battle against the strongest had hyped up fans with Yuji vs Sukuna, only to focus on Kenjaku again suddenly. The villain is only one step away from achieving his goals. While the sorcerers are trying to defeat the King of Curses, they send Takaba to deal with the other villain, Kenjaku. Angel has enough faith in Takaba’s technique to send him alone. However, the one Takaba is fighting against an ancient curse user who has an unknown number of techniques at his disposal. The two soon forget about fighting each other as Takaba also has to worry about his pride as a comedian. As the fight continues, Gege Akutami has confirmed changing a fan-favorite panel in the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen panels. Warning: brief spoilers from the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 242! Which Jujutsu Kaisen panel will Gege Akutami change in the manga? According to Viz Mangaka Musings, in the Weekly Shonen Jump Issue 51, Gege Akutami says, “Next chapter will have the two of them in the opposite positions, but don’t worry about it.” According to spoilers, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 242 ends with Kenjaku figuring out a way to deal with Takaba’s technique. Takaba has the ability to not only manifest his imagination into reality but also affect his opponent’s thoughts as well. Therefore, Kenjaku realizes that he must let Takaba achieve his goal before defeating him. The chapter ends with both Kenjaku and Takaba suiting up and going to a stage with a mic placed in the center and an audience waiting for them. The scene surely rings a bell among fans as it’s similar to a popular panel of Gojo and Geto. If that wasn’t enough, then Gege’s comment confirms that he will recreate the panel with Kenjaku and Takaba. The panel is the cover of Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 77, which marks the end of the strongest duo as Geto further falls into despair. The panel was later illustrated in a colored version with the anime style when Season 2 was airing the Hidden Inventory/Premature Death arc. Gege Akutami will likely draw the new version of this fan-favorite panel in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 243. Click here to find out the release date and more spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 242.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami comments on Nobara’s animation – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami comments on Nobara’s animation CrunchyrollThe recent episode of Jujutsu Kaisen finally shows Nobara Kugisaki in action – so, here’s what Gege Akutami has to say about it. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 12 mostly focuses on Kento Nanami as he defeats Haruta. It was the first and probably the last time fans will ever see him so angry about something. However, it makes sense, considering how Haruta has been going around killing assistants, one of them being Ichiji. But Nanami isn’t the only one who was praiseworthy in the recent episode. The only girl from the series’ main trio, Nobara Kugisaki, fights Haruta to protect Akari Nitta. Fans see her in action after a really long time. However, despite all her strength, Haruta turns out to be too powerful for Nobara. Nonetheless, she continues to fight, ignoring Nanami’s advice to leave Shibuya immediately. Gege Akutami always shares a message after the Jujutsu Kaisen episode airs. This time, he talks about Nobara’s animation. Gege Akutami’s message about Nobara in Jujutsu Kaisen anime Twitter user Soukatsu, popular for translating Gege Akutami’s interviews, messages, and any related Jujutsu Kaisen updates, shares the English version of the author’s latest comment on Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 12. Gege Akutami says after watching the latest episode: “Thank you for season two, episode twelve!! The part with Kugisaki’s brain was super cool!! Manipulating time forward or backward in individual cuts is a really difficult thing to execute in manga!!! And the way Mei Mei handled her axe is way better than in the manga!!” The author always praises the animators’ works, and this week is no different. He is especially happy about the level of detail MAPPA puts into every scene. Animators hand draw and recreate manga panels as accurately as possible. MAPPA’s work is highly acknowledged as one of the top animation studios in Japan. Since the start of Season 2, Gege has greatly supported the studio’s efforts. The change in art style was one of the hottest topics of debate before the sequel was released. Hence, Gege also spoke out in support of the change in painting style when some questioned whether it was a smart idea.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami breaks silence on controversial chapter 236 – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami breaks silence on controversial chapter 236 CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen fans are incredibly disappointed after chapter 236 leaks went viral – so here’s what Gege Akutami has to say about it. Jujutsu Kaisen is currently trending worldwide, but not for a good reason. The controversy regarding a popular character’s death is generating a lot of bad press. Since it’s a dark Shonen series, fans are always ready to see their favorite characters die at some point. However, this time, they aren’t content with the way their beloved character died off-screen. The anticlimactic death may be resolved in future chapters, but they’re already disappointed with how everything played out. The battle of the strongest has reached its end, and it’s not the outcome fans would ever hope for. The upcoming chapter will feature the most shocking scene. Since the leaks went viral, many fans already know what happened. Delve deeper to find out what Gege Akutami has to say about Jujutsu Kaisen’s controversial chapter 236. Gege Akutami’s comment on the Weekly Shonen Jump confuses fans even more Amid the backlash to the recent leaks, in this week’s Weekly Shonen Jump issue, Gege Akutami shared a rather confusing message. He said: “Due to the break, it seems like I forgot to draw one chapter.” Surely, he means it as a joke, but it could be foreshadowing him filling in the gaps in the narrative. After all, the difference in chapters 235 and 236 is massive, and it does seem like we’re missing something important that occurred during the fight. As per the usual schedule, the mangaka takes a break every three weeks. However, because the series is in such a crucial phase, JJK released four consecutive chapters before chapter 236 was delayed by a week. Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236 will officially release on September 24. You can read the spoilers here.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami breaks silence after Season 2 finale – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami breaks silence after Season 2 finale CrunchyrollAfter Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 finale, creator Gege Akutami has a special message for fans. Here’s everything you need to know about it. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 adapts two manga arcs in the most creative and beautiful way possible. With stellar animation, an explosive soundtrack, and intense fight scenes, the series provides everything Shonen fans can hope for and more. However, the story is still far from over. The latest season ends with a lot of unanswered questions. As soon as the Season 2 finale was officially broadcast in Japan, the production studio released a teaser of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3. The sequel season is called the Culling Game arc. As the mangaka of Jujutsu Kaisen, Gege Akutami has been incredibly supportive of the studio since the beginning. He also provided scripts for the previews, which had the most random and funny conversations ever. Here’s a look at Gege Akutami’s message after the Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 finale. What did Gege Akutami say after the Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 finale? The official account of Jujutsu Kaisen shared Gege Akutami’s message on Twitter/X. Since the original message is in Japanese, Twitter user Soukatsu, popular for his translations, shared an English version of Gege’s message. The mangaka says, “It’s been a very special six months like I’ve been receiving a present every week!! Thank you so, SO much for your hard work, everyone!! I’ll do my best on the manga, too!! There’s also a special illustration of Yuta and Miguel. After the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, Gojo forced Miguel to take Yuta under his wing and sent his student to Africa. Yuta stayed with Miguel for almost a year before coming back to Japan after the Shibuya Incident. Although the series doesn’t show Miguel, Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 finale marks Yuta’s official anime debut in the main story. Ever since the beginning of the series, Yuta has been hyped up as one of the most powerful sorcerers with the potential to rival Satoru Gojo. The prequel movie, which was released in 2021, skyrocketed his popularity. Up until a few weeks ago, Gege Akutami shared a special message after every episode. However, perhaps because of his busy schedule, it has been a while since fans heard anything from him regarding Season 2. Although the author didn’t share any message, he would drop special illustrations every now and then. Now that the series has wrapped up its second season, he shared his thoughts on it and also promised to do his best in the manga.

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami breaks his silence on the manga ending CrunchyrollThe Jujutsu Kaisen manga ending has been delayed for quite a while now. Here’s what the manga creator Gege Akutami has to say about this. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is all the rage this summer as fans can’t help but adore the new art style featuring their favorite characters in their younger days. The only news was at the beginning of the year claiming, the manga should end in 2023. However, fans have literally no clue about when it will happen. Talks of the ending have been circulating for more than a year now. The manga is currently featuring the highly-anticipated battle between Gojo and Sukuna. As the two strongest beings in the world appear to be at a stalemate, the story doesn’t seem to end anytime soon. Even though we’re halfway through July, the series has much to cover. All we can hope is that the manga won’t have a rushed ending, ruining the essence of the story. Amid all the confusion, Gege Akutami finally comes forward and breaks his silence regarding the Jujutsu Kaisen manga ending. Here’s what he has to say to the readers. Gege Akutami confirms the delay in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga ending The delay in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga ending is surely a piece of good news for fans who enjoy the storyline. Despite all the confusion about the rushed ending, the creator assures fans that the delay is only happening to meet their expectations. In a heartfelt message, Gege Akutami expresses his gratitude to the global readers. “The fact that my manga has been able to cross the ocean and be enjoyed by so many people feels so mysterious to me. But also, I’m very grateful.” He further adds that even though the manga is at its final stretch, it won’t be ending anytime soon. Fans can expect more thrilling chapters for their favorite series. It is also highly likely that the manga will not be ending this year at all. However, we are still awaiting an official confirmation regarding this.

  • Gege Akutami reveals Jujutsu Kaisen’s Black Flash was inspired by classic video game – Dexerto

    Gege Akutami reveals Jujutsu Kaisen’s Black Flash was inspired by classic video game CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami has provided some background on his inspirations for the Black Flash, and he had a specific image in mind for the maneuver. One of the best anime going, Jujutsu Kaisen has become a phenomenon over the last couple of years. In the spirit of its popularity, there’s an exhibition currently running in Tokyo celebrating the anime and manga. As part of the exhibit, Gege answered a list of questions about the franchise and how he came up with certain ideas. One question pointed to the Black Flash, a move that came about due to some very particular influences. “Katayama, my editor at the time, told me he wanted a special move [for Yuji Itadori] but I really didn’t feel like anything fit, so I think Divergent Fist and then Black Flash were born as moves that not many others do,” Gege revealed. “The image I had in my mind was the Flash from the game Onimusha. It’s a counterattack move you often see in Real Time Attacks. I also liked the fact that it’s not a unique skill and that it can be used to increase voltage after just one use.” If you haven’t played Onimusha, it’s a classic samurai action game where you guide the hero, Samanosuke, on a quest to rescue a princess imprisoned by demons. The move Gege’s referring to is the Innes counter, where you hit an attack right as an enemy comes towards you. Timed right, you’ll do a special move that inflicts heavy damage. Another form that’s even more powerful can be done using the block button. The Black Flash in Jujutsu Kaisen is even trickier, since canonically almost nobody can use it properly. Once somebody does, their move is amplified considerably. They’re both stylish counters that can be carried out by anybody – if they’re able to meet the criteria needed. Onimusha Warlords, the first in the franchise, was originally released in 2001, but a remaster from 2019 can be played on PC, Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. As yet, none of the sequels have enjoyed the same treatment, so they’re harder to find on modern systems.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami addresses major error in Yuta’s design – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami addresses major error in Yuta’s design CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen’s fan-favorite character, Yuta, has a major error in his design, and surprisingly enough, creator Gege Akutami has brought this issue to light. Jujutsu Kaisen is currently featuring the battle against the strongest as Yuta and Yuji join hands against the villain. Both are Gojo’s precious students, as he had high hopes for them. Considering their brilliant feat against the King of Curses, Gojo’s confidence in his students wasn’t unfounded as the duo managed to corner Sukuna. However, while they did put up a good fight against Sukuna, last week’s chapter confirms that they lost the first round. Maki joins the battle, while Yuji and Yuta are seriously injured. Nonetheless, they’re still alive, so there’s a chance they’d bounce back in some time. However, what’s more surprising about the ongoing fight is that there’s a significant error in Yuta’s design in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 249. Mangaka Gege Akutami addressed this issue in his recent message. Delve deeper to find out more. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 249 features major error in Yuta’s design In the recent Mangaka Musings shared by Viz, Gege Akutami said: “Why does Okottsu have a ring on his middle finger? Who drew this? Sigh…” This comment is from Weekly Shonen Jump Issue 12. Every week, the magazine includes several manga chapters and the author’s comments along with it. Viz shares Mangaka Musings, where the creators share their thoughts about their series, anime, or anything else. Of course, Gege Akutami is trolling fans by asking about the identity of the person who drew the ring on Yuta’s finger. The error isn’t only evident in this panel, but another scene didn’t even feature Yuta’s ring at all. Yuta always wears his ring on his ring finger as a momento of his childhood love, Rika Orimoto, who died in a car accident. After joining the Jujutsu Tech High School in Tokyo, he started using this ring to call on the special-grade apparition, Rika. Even after Rika’s soul passed on, the “vessel” Rika stayed with him even after that. For Yuta, the ring not only reminds him of his tie with Rika but also learns to channel his power using the bond between them. During the initial phase of Yuta’s training, Gojo took him to the cursed tool vault and handed him a katana. The idea was for Yuta to learn to fight as well as channel cursed energy into an object, and Yuta chose the ring as a medium.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami addresses major confusion in manga – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami addresses major confusion in manga CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen’s creator, Gege Akutami, clarifies a significant misunderstanding in the manga about a certain cursed technique. Jujutsu Kaisen is a complex story with its strange power system and the countless number of abilities. The manga is currently in its final stretch, featuring the fight against the villains. Since all the sorcerers are currently engaging in battle, the series is revealing more information about their techniques. However, even a simple error can change the meanings of the scenes and techniques entirely, which is exactly what happened in Chapter 246. While it may not seem much, it can change the meaning of a technique entirely. After Kashimo’s death, Higuruma and Yuji quickly jump onto the battle field and challenge the King of Curses. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 246 features Kusakabe and the others joining the fight. Choso and Ino fight Sukuna while Kusabake prioritizes Higuruma’s safety. Gege Akutami steps forward to address the issue with a particular technique in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga. Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami addresses major confusion in manga When the sorcerers simultaneously attack Sukuna, he notices that everyone has improved significantly. Sukuna also notices Kusakabe’s Simple Domain and says, “And by weakening my cursed technique with a Simple Domain, they’ve reduced the damage they take, although not as much as Amplification would.” Simple Domain is an anti-domain technique that creates a small barrier around the user to protect them from the effects of a Domain Expansion. In this chapter, Kusakabe counters Sukuna’s Dismantle with his Simple Domain. Dismantle is Sukuna’s signature technique, and he uses it to kill Higuruma. Kusakabe interferes and saves Higuruma, but it isn’t easy for him to take on such a powerful attack head-on However, in Viz Mangaka Musings, Gege Akutami shares, “Simple domain isn’t neutralizing the curse itself, so ‘thinning it out’ might have been the wrong word choice.” Gege Akutami simply addresses the misunderstanding as the terms “weakening” and “neutralizing” are being interchanged. Although Jujutsu Kaisen manga has several translation errors, this wasn’t the case this time. The narrative in this scene of the English version stays true to the raw version. It’s actually Domain Amplification which neutralizes the cursed techniques. This is why saying Kusakabe’s Simple Domain weakened Sukuna’s Dismantle can be a bit confusing at first. However, there’s a reasonable explanation for it. Simple Domain is actually a very flexible technique. The user can customize it with different rules and binding vows. Regardless of the error, Gege Akutami addressed in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga; it’s true that Kusakabe withstood Sukuna’s Dismantle and protected Higuruma.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen Fortnite spoils shocking plot twist – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen Fortnite spoils shocking plot twist Epic GamesThe popular Jujutsu Kaisen Fortnite game spoils one of the biggest and most shocking plot twists of the series. Following the massive success of Jujutsu Kaisen, the series announced a crossover with Fortnite. Epic Games added a Jujutsu Kaisen crossover in Fortnite with the latest v25.30 content update. Debuted in August 2023, the cursed energy that dominates the JJK world has taken control of Battle Royale Island. However, although the game was immensely popular, it suddenly dropped a bomb while revealing one of the major plot twists in the series. Anime-only fans tend to steer away from the manga content and only watch the episodes. JJK spoilers often go viral on social media, but most anime-only fans avoid clicking on them. However, no one would imagine getting such a major spoiler by simply playing the game. Delve deeper to find out how Jujutsu Kaisen Fortnite spoiled one of the biggest plot twists in the series. Warning: This article contains spoilers from the manga! Which major spoiler did Jujutsu Kaisen Fortnite reveal? Twitter user shares a video from Tiktok which features the characters’ dance along with a reaction. However, when Megumi appears, he suddenly shows the same Sukuna markings as Yuji. For those who are unaware, Sukuna takes over Megumi’s body in Chapter 212. The villain’s interest in the young sorcerer isn’t a secret in the fandom. However, the anime has yet to reveal the details. In Chapter 213, he reveals that he had sensed Megumi’s potential and his capacity to suppress him, the King of Curses. Sukuna was simply biding his time inside Yuji’s body and slowly gaining his power. To ensure Megumi wouldn’t become a cage for him like Yuji, Sukuna had to shatter his spirit. And the best way to do that is by killing his sister Tsumiki using the Ten Shadows Technique. Sukuna made sure that after taking over his body, he would kill Yoruzu (who was incarnated in Tsumiki’s body) using Megumi’s technique. His cunning trick worked, and Megumi is still unable to break free. Although Megumi was resisting at first, he fell into despair after Tsumiki’s death. The King of Curses used the Ten Shadows Technique to control Mahoraga, who can adapt to Gojo’s Infinity.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen should do this follow-up after the manga ends, fans say – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen should do this follow-up after the manga ends, fans say CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen is ending very soon, and fans already have an idea about what the manga should do as a follow-up. After six years of serialization, the Jujutsu Kaisen manga is coming to an end on September 30, 2024. The manga will end with Chapter 271 and will see the conclusion of the climactic battle between Sukuna and the jujutsu sorcerers. With only five chapters left until the end, it’s not surprising that there’ll be a few plotlines the story won’t be able to cover. Thus, fans think some of these unexplored storylines should be made into multiple follow-up series in the franchise. Some of these ideas include a next-generation series and the slice-of-life Juju Stroll manga. However, the one story fans want to see the most is a Heian era prequel featuring Sukuna. The King of Curses rose to prominence and was at his strongest during this era. What’s more, jujutsu sorcery was also at its peak during the Heian times. So, there won’t be any shortage of awesome battles in this prequel. Readers also think knowing more about Sukuna’s past will be interesting. We get a very brief peek at his former life in Jujutsu Kaisen during the Shinjuku Showdown. While fighting Yuji, a flashback reveals Sukuna telling Uraume how he was born to a starving woman. To spare himself from starvation, Sukuna ate his twin inside their mother’s womb. His dead brother would later reincarnate as Jin Itadori, Yuji’s father. Aside from this, though, we know little to nothing about Sukuna’s past. So, a Heian era prequel featuring his early life would be very interesting. We’ll also get to see many powerful sorcerers from all three great houses. “GEGE! Give us Heian throwback with Sukuna watering hydrangeas and reciting poems to crayfish and my life is yours!!!” commented a user on Reddit. “Gege! Make a Heian prequel and my soul is yours,” added another. A third wrote, “All of it sounds corny and dumb except the Heian Era prequel.” One other user shared: “Aside from a direct part 2, there’s so much more to the world and past that can be explored. I think a prequel could be seriously awesome.” If the Heian era prequel really happens, it’s still pretty far away. For now, we have the Jujutsu Kaisen ending to look forward to, and more recently, Chapter 267. The chapter will be released on August 25, 2024. Until then, find out which popular video game made “insane” reference to Jujutsu Kaisen and what will be the new project after Shinjuku finale. You can also find out more about Nobara’s fate.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen spoilers finally reveal Yuji’s “soul” technique – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen spoilers finally reveal Yuji’s “soul” technique CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen Chapter 249 spoilers finally reveal Yuji’s “soul” technique that fans have been dying to know. The complex power system in Jujutsu Kaisen, paired with layers of mysteries, often creates confusion, only for it to be revealed later on. The manga is in its final phase, and it’s slowly unraveling Yuji’s techniques in the battle against the strongest. The series doesn’t follow the conventional plotline when it comes to the protagonist. Therefore, Yuji often gets side-lined by other characters. Nonetheless, he is still well-loved by fans, who want nothing more than to watch him shine in the final battle against the villain. Before the highly-anticipated Gojo vs Sukuna begins in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 222, there is one scene with Yuji and Kusakabe that’s extremely confusing. This led to the popular theory about Yuji’s technique having something to do with soul swapping. Luckily, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 249 spoilers confirm Yuji’s soul technique, but it’s not what you imagined. Warning: this article contains spoilers from the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 249! What is Yuji’s “soul” technique in Jujutsu Kaisen? Although Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 249 spoilers don’t reveal the name of Yuji’s technique, we know that the sorcerers are relying on him to defeat Sukuna. The chapter features the fight between Yuta and Sukuna as the young sorcerer rushes to aid his allies after killing Kenjaku. Yuta also uses his Domain Expansion against the villain. He is confident that he can end Sukuna in his domain using the unlimited copy of cursed techniques. According to his plan, Yuji will make the final move by capturing Sukuna’s soul with his strikes and ripping him apart from Megumi’s body. In Chapter 220, Yuji says he has a few ideas that could save Megumi. And it seems he plans on saving his friend with his newfound powers. As for Yuji’s controversial “soul” technique, the theory came after Chapter 222, where Yuji and Kusakabe swapped bodies. In Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 25, one of the additional arts features Kusakabe enjoying being in a younger body (Yuji’s body). Chapter 249 doesn’t reveal the technique’s name or how Yuji swapped with Kusakabe. However, we now know that Yuji’s technique somehow attacks is target’s soul. Needless to say, it’s one of his many techniques.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen finally reveals Miguel and Yuta’s connection – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen finally reveals Miguel and Yuta’s connection CrunchyrollThe official Jujutsu Kaisen fanbook answers fans’ burning questions about Miguel and Yuta’s connection. Miguel and Yuta were both introduced in Jujutsu Kaisen 0. Yuta Okkotsu was the protagonist of the prequel series while Miguel played a secondary antagonist. However, both stole the spotlight for different reasons. Yuta realized his full potential and defeated Geto and Miguel stole the show by fighting Gojo and coming out alive. In Jujutsu Kaisen, it is revealed that Yuta is in Africa, training with Miguel. It comes as a big surprise since Yuta and Miguel were originally from opposing factions. However, the official JJK fanbook makes it clear how Miguel came to be Yuta’s mentor. In the fanbook, JJK creator Gege Akutami answers the question of a fan who asked about Miguel and Yuta’s connection. Yuta and Miguel both appear in the cover of Chapter 33 of the manga. This leads to the fan asking if Miguel was caught by Jujutsu High after his fight against Gojo. Akutami reveals Miguel wasn’t caught by Jujutsu High. Instead, it was Gojo who found him after the fight and forced him to train Yuta. This is how Miguel became Yuta’s trainer and took him abroad to teach him more about jujutsu. This information finally clarifies Miguel and Yuta’s connection. It also makes it clear that Gojo must’ve found Miguel to be a really strong sorcerer. Otherwise, he would’ve never trusted him to train Yuta. Akutami also shares the same thing in the fanbook. When a fan asks him to share any new information on Miguel, the author only reveals that Miguel is strong. Though readers have no further context on Miguel and his background, the only thing that is certain is that he’s a strong individual. Afterall, having such a vote of confidence from both Gojo and the author is no small feat. Miguel will fight Sukuna in the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 255 which will be released on March 31.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen finally confirms controversial Yuji scene – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen finally confirms controversial Yuji scene CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen manga releases Volume 25, finally confirming the controversial Yuji scene that confused the entire fandom. Here’s everything you need to know about it. There’s no doubt that Jujutsu Kaisen has its fair share of controversial moments. The complex power system paired with layers of mysteries often creates confusion, only for it to be later on. The manga is in its final stretch, but the series still has not fully revealed Yuji Itadori’s powers. The series doesn’t follow the conventional plotline when it comes to the protagonist. Therefore, Yuji often gets side-lined by other characters. Nonetheless, he is still well-loved by fans, who want nothing more than to watch him shine in the final battle against the villains. Before the highly-anticipated Gojo vs Sukuna begins in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 222, there is one scene about Yuji that’s extremely confusing. Delve deeper to find more about this controversial Yuji scene from Jujutsu Kaisen and how it hints at his powers. Warning: This article contains spoilers from the manga! Which controversial Yuji scene is confirmed in Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 25? Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 222 features everyone before the battle of the strongest. Meanwhile, Yuji and Kusakabe spar against each other, and Yuji easily defeats his superior. However, the next moment, he refers to Kusakabe as Itadori. The chances of it being a translation error are slim; otherwise, it would’ve been rectified after all these months. Therefore, it only leads to one possibility: Yuji and Kusakabe switched bodies. Jujutsu Kaisen officially released Volume 25 this week, and one of the additional arts further confirms this scene. This art appears right after Chapter 222, where Kusakabe enjoys being in a younger body. There’s also a short text with the art, and Yuji is wearing the same outfit as that chapter. Although there’s no clarity about the technique responsible for switching their bodies, it’s likely one of Yuji’s abilities. Yuji doesn’t switch bodies with anyone after this, but there’s no telling what will happen in the future. As the battle against the strongest continues, the series gradually unfolds the sorcerer’s plans and the sacrifices they’re making to defeat the villains. Whether it’s the controversial Yuji scene, Gojo’s conversation with Ino, or the task assigned to Toge Inumaki, everything remains a mystery. However, one thing is certain: the conventional standards of the Jujutsu world will not limit Yuji’s powers.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen’s final fight has ended – but it forgot one huge thing – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen’s final fight has ended – but it forgot one huge thing CrunchyrollThe fight against Sukuna ends in Chapter 268 but the Jujutsu Kaisen manga still hasn’t revealed one major thing about the main character. The Jujutsu Kaisen manga is currently in its final stretch as the upcoming Chapter 268 confirms the battle against the strongest ends with Sukuna’s crushing defeat. However, while the King of Curses loses, the manga never reveals Yuji’s domain. In Chapter 268, Megumi frees himself from Sukuna’s grasp as soon as Yuji’s domain crumbles. However, the manga never revealed details about the Domain Expansion. As soon as he opens his domain, the scene shifts to a railway station, which is similar to the Kitakami station in Kitakami City (Iwate Prefecture) in Japan. We also see several places from Yuji’s memories and it doesn’t appear to be an offensive domain. Regardless, the final fight in Jujutsu Kaisen is over and fans are still confused about it, with some making theories. A popular account says, “Very curious as to why Yuji’s Domain has been constantly changing background scenery. There’s even some symbolism at play, including the geese (representing freedom) & winter forest (predator mentality). Is the scenery a representation of Yuji’s state of mind throughout battle?” “I think that might be it. He did say he pulled the domain off without even thinking about it. Maybe the final FINAL blow will have something to do with him fully manifesting its truth and giving it a name,” adds another. One fan jokes, “FACT: Yuji doesn’t have a domain expansion. Sukuna just felt bad for him and started attacking himself with soul dismantles.” “So lemme get this straight Yuji’s domain is basically just talk no jutsu. Megumi is never gonna complete his domain. Nobara doesn’t even have a domain. Gege bruh this is abysmal,” complains another. The Jujutsu Kaisen manga will be ending in a few weeks, so find out the final chapter’s release date.

  • Gege Akutami has known Jujutsu Kaisen’s final chapter for years – Dexerto

    Gege Akutami has known Jujutsu Kaisen’s final chapter for years CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen will be wrapping up soon enough, and while we’re all wondering how the story ends, creator Gege Akutami has had it all worked out for years. The Jujutsu Kaisen ending is due sometime in the near future. We don’t know when, exactly, but it’s been confirmed that the epic manga is in the endgame, and has been for some time. Amid all the speculation and discussion over what might happen to the strongest sorcerers in their battle against Sukuna, an old interview from Gege has unearthed a curious titbit – the last chapter was locked when he started the story. “I’ve already decided on the final chapter’s content as well as several things that will happen along the way,” he said in the postscript for Jujutsu Kaisen 0, released in 2021. “However, I still don’t know how the dots will connect. I hope everything will turn out okay. But will I be able to finish it?” First of all, yes, we think it’s safe to say we’ll see Jujutsu Kaisen end just as Gege always envisioned it. The rest of his statement is fascinating, and happens more than you might think. Creators frequently know where they want their story to land relatively early on, at least in the form of a broad outline. George RR Martin, creator of Game of Thrones, knew who he wanted on the Iron Throne by series end, working his books around that pillar. Some take a more freeform approach; Stephen King famously just starts writing, feeling out the concept and characters as he goes. While he might be one of the great icons of modern literature, many who read his work would agree conclusions aren’t his strong suit. All of which is to say Gege is using tried and tested methods for sticking the landing. The runaway popularity of Jujutsu Kaisen means he has a larger audience than perhaps anticipated, but knows where he’s going. The real question is who will be left standing. Many have died in the manga so far, and it’d be foolhardy to think we’re out of the woods just yet. Check out our guide on Chapter 264 to see what’s currently going down.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen’s final arc confirmed by Gege Akutami – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen’s final arc confirmed by Gege Akutami Manga PlusJujutsu Kaisen manga is close to its conclusion as creator Gege Akutami finally confirms the final arc, so which arc will conclude the story? Jujutsu Kaisen manga is currently in the middle of the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. The arc begins with the highly-anticipated Gojo vs Sukuna, which is still the most exciting fight in the entire series. Following Gojo’s tragic demise, the story continues as the sorcerers unite to defeat the King of Curses. In May 2024, the JJK manga editor confirmed that the Shinjuku Showdown Arc would soon conclude. It’s been ongoing since Chapter 222, which was released in May 2023. After the news, many fans believed that it would not be the final arc of the series. However, now Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami has confirmed that Shinjuku Showdown is the final arc or saga. This comes from questions and answers Gege took part in as part of a Jujutsu Kaisen exhibit in Tokyo, where he refers to the Shinjuku Showdown Arc as the “final section/saga”. A prominent leaker explains: “Shinjuku Showdown being the Final arc/saga doesn’t mean JJK is ending really, really soon. Culling Games Arc went on for more than 60 chapters (Shinjuku currently has more than 40 chapters). This also doesn’t necessarily mean Merger won’t happen at all. Just as Culling Game was a cluster of mini-arcs, Shinjuku can have another mini-arc (if Gege decides to make it).” Since there is no confirmation about the manga ending, it should continue for at least a few more months. Fans are having mixed reactions after the sudden announcement of the final arc since the story still has a lot of unanswered questions. One fan shares, “I feel like there’s so much we’re missing still? I expected another arc after this, with everything that Kenny had set up alone, feels odd?” “I pray to god that Gege doesn’t end his series soon. We NEED the merger, Or else, we will just go out with jumping Sukuna, and the story ends,” shares another.

  • One Jujutsu Kaisen fight should become a movie after Season 3 – Dexerto

    One Jujutsu Kaisen fight should become a movie after Season 3 CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen has only spawned one movie so far, and fans have their hearts set on the battle that should become the franchise’s second big screen venture. Updates on Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 have been slow, and that’s unlikely to change for the time-being. After all, we had to wait almost two years between the previous two seasons. But that time guaranteed quality from MAPPA, who cemented Jujutsu Kaisen as one of the best anime available right now. As we await the Culling Game adaptation, fans are musing about what should come after, and a consensus is starting to form: a new movie. In a Reddit thread on how Season 3 should finish, a comment mentions that the finale being Gojo challenging Sukuna, only for the fight to end in just a few episodes the next season, would be hilarious. This prompts suggestions that battle should be a motion picture instead. “Which is why Gojo vs Sukuna should be a movie tbh,” says one response. “Gojo vs Sukuna should be a movie and Mappa should add extra scenes,” concurs a second. “God, didn’t know I wanted a movie ’til you said it. Gojo vs Sukuna has to be absolute peak animation,” A third adds. There’s some dissent on the idea, though, since it might make for odd pacing overall. “Gojo vs. Sukuna is a great fight but it’s pretty much a big fight with very little plot development. I think it’d be awful as a movie,” one commenter adds. “They wouldn’t end a movie with Gojo’s death just for anime-onlies needing to wait another year and a half just to see what happened,” another states. There are strong arguments either way. In general, Season 3 would be a good point to do another anime movie. Demon Slayer did one post-Season 1, and now we have the Infinity Castle movie trilogy, after four seasons. My Hero Academia is about to have four with the release of You’re Next. Meanwhile, Jujutsu Kaisen, absolutely their contemporary in scale and fandom, has only added one feature film, and that was a prequel. Since the Jujutsu Kaisen ending is on the horizon, going theatrical is an easy way to go out with a bang.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen features an iconic Demon Slayer reference – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen features an iconic Demon Slayer reference CrunchyrollThe latest chapter of Jujutsu Kaisen manga subtly features similarities with a popular Demon Slayer character. Jujutsu Kaisen delivered yet another shocking chapter last week. Yuta and Yuji joined hands against the King of Curses and were brilliant in the fight. They desperately struggled to not only defeat their enemy but also to save their friend Megumi. Chapter 251 features several incredible moments as the fight gets more intense. We also see a brief glimpse of Megumi breaking down. Yuji and Yuta lose the battle after taking serious damage. Not only that, but Maki joins the battle at the end of the chapter. Yuji and Yuta are still clearly alive, so there’s a chance that they might get back up soon again. Even so, the battle against the strongest is at its final stretch as Gojo’s students have taken center stage. Delve deeper to find out how Jujutsu Kaisen’s latest chapter references the popular Demon Slayer character. Jujutsu Kaisen features a Demon Slayer reference in Chapter 251 During the short time between Gojo’s return and the battle of the strongest, everyone’s skills improved tremendously. They all trained to be prepared in case Gojo lost the battle. Nonetheless, the one who changed the most is Yuji Itadori. Yuji said that in order to save Megumi, he will eat anything he has to, as long as he can increase his powers. In Chapter 220, the series hints that Yuji consumed the remaining Death Paintings (Choso and his siblings) to get more power. Chapter 247 also discreetly hints that Yuji uses Choso’s Piercing Blood, but it remains uncertain if it is Yuji or Choso. However, as the fight continues in Chapter 251, Yuji surprises the King of Curses with an insane technique. He first spits a mouthful of blood on Sukuna’s face and later explodes it. The technique seems to be an extension of Blood Manipulation. However, Demon Slayer’s beloved character, Nezuko, also has the same ability. Gege Akutami often subtly references some popular works in his manga, so it wouldn’t be odd if the similarity in Yuji’s and Nezuko’s powers is intentional. While Yuji is a human using cursed energy, Nezuko’s powers stem from her demonic transformation. Like every powerful demon, she can use a Blood Demon Art. Nezuko’s technique, “Exploding Blood,” is a technique of her Blood Demon Art, “Combustible Blood.” It allows her to ignite the blood that has exited her body, turning it into pinkish-crimson flames that are harmful only to demons.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen: Fans wrongfully blame Yuki for Geto’s downfall – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen: Fans wrongfully blame Yuki for Geto’s downfall CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen Season 2 introduces Yuki Tsukumo, a special-grade Sorcerer. Sadly, several fans blame Geto’s downfall on Yuki based on their conversation. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 ends its Gojo’s Past arc with Geto’s downfall and his separation from Gojo. The episode briefly introduces Yuki Tsukumo, who comes forward to talk with Geto. Despite being a special-grade Sorcerer, she doesn’t go on missions and isn’t available at the beck and call of the higher-ups. Yuki sees Geto drowning in despair and decides to talk with him. She speaks about her goals and how she wants to eradicate all curses from the world. On the other hand, Geto pitches his own crazy idea. However, despite what others claim, Yuki really isn’t responsible for Geto’s actions in Jujutsu Kaisen. Yuki tries to talk Geto out of killing non-Sorcerers in Jujutsu Kaisen Yuki’s unconventional way of living is the result of her dream of getting rid of the root cause behind the curses. Constantly battling curses only results in meaningless casualties, which will never end. Therefore, Yuki has two options in front of her: eradicate cursed energy from all of humanity or teach humans how to control their cursed energy. Several people don’t realize how their negative thoughts are affecting their surroundings. Those without powers release a very small amount of curses, which pile up over time. Additionally, there are people like Yuta Okkutsu, who are born with powers and unaware of them. As a result, their powers end up creating stronger curses. However, Yuki’s idea sounds good in theory but is difficult to execute. On the other hand, Geto comes up with the crazy idea of killing all non-Sorcerers. Yuki doesn’t seem fazed by it but agrees it’s the easiest route. However, she also says she isn’t crazy enough to attempt something like that. In fact, that was Yuki’s way of trying to talk Geto out of it. She didn’t consider him a child and instead spoke to him on the same level as fellow special-grade Sorcerers should. She respected his insights and provided her ideas as well. Ultimately, she leaves the choice up to Geto and doesn’t force him to follow her ideas. Geto is the only one responsible for his actions, and not because of any ideas Yuki put in his head. His love for Jujutsu Sorcerers was just as real as his hatred for those without powers. In his final moments, Geto says he couldn’t wear a heartfelt smile while living in that world. He also doesn’t forget to express his hatred for monkeys. Geto’s downfall is simply because of the cruel world that broke him until he could no longer smile. Although Yu Haibara’s death deeply affected him, he finally breaks the last string of sanity when he witnesses the villagers mistreating two young girls. Geto would’ve ended up the same way whether or not he had talked with Yuki. Therefore, Yuki had nothing to do about Geto’s choices in Jujutsu Kaisen.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans worry about Gege Akutami after Chapter 252 – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans worry about Gege Akutami after Chapter 252 CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen Chapter 252 is extremely thrilling, but most fans are worried about Gege Akutami. Here’s everything you need to know. Jujutsu Kaisen’s manga returns after a brief hiatus. Just like always, Gege Akutami delivers another set of shocking events in the upcoming chapter. Chapter 251 ends on a major cliffhanger with Maki’s appearance as she impales the King of Curses. The chapter recreates the iconic Toji and Gojo scene using Maki and Sukuna. While Gojo and Sukuna both bear the title of the strongest, Toji and Maki are the stains of the Zenin Clan. Hence, Gege Akutami decided to commence the battle between Maki and Sukuna by recreating the scene where Toji stabbed Gojo without him noticing. Akutami then takes his usual break since he delivered three consecutive chapters. While Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 252 has been shocking enough for fans, they’re also quite worried about Gege Akutami after seeing the raw scans. Delve deeper to find out why. Why Jujutsu Kaisen fans are worried about Gege Akutami after seeing Chapter 252 Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 252 appears to be roughly drawn, and it’s evident that Gege Akutami drew it in a rush. JJK leaker shared on Twitter/X: “I hope Gege is doing well. Seeing how he submitted a few panels with unfinished art, I pray for his health. This happened once in the past during Maki’s Zenin arc. He was unwell & rushed the story before taking a 1-month hiatus. Hopefully, he won’t repeat the same thing & take care.” A lot of panels in the middle aren’t clearly drawn, which isn’t how Gege usually does things. Despite taking a break, the mangaka’s schedule is as tight as ever. The manga is nearing its 6th anniversary, which means the magazine has special plans for the next week’s issue. The series will have a special colored cover in the WSJ magazine. The manga is also holding a fourth popularity poll to celebrate the anniversary. However, that’s not all. JJK will soon release its Volume 26, which means there’s more work for the mangaka. Another user posted: “The unfinished pages in chapter 252 might be related to the cover and color page for next week’s magazine. Mangakas have an awful schedule and a tremendous amount of workload.” Additionally, JJK leaker shares in another post: “On top of all this, Gege needs to draw the upcoming Volume-26 cover this month. It’s most likely to be Gojo & I hope gege takes all his time to make Gojo look beautiful one last time. Praying that he doesn’t fumble this.” “Gege’s health matters more than anything. I hope he’s doing well and is getting much-needed rest, ” commented one fan. Another fan also expressed their concern: “He should put his health first and might take a little break.. Get well soon Gege.” “People forget Gege is human too. Pray for the guy drawing us this beautiful story,” commented another.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans worried about major character amid constant deaths – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans worried about major character amid constant deaths CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen Season 2 leaves no stone unturned in traumatizing the fandom with back-to-back death sequences of the beloved characters. After witnessing all that, the community is worried about the lead character, Yuji Itadori. Jujutsu Kaisen animanga is making us go through a challenging phase, as every chapter and episode brings a new saddening event. For instance, the latest episode of JJK Season 2 features Nobara Kugisaki’s death, and in the previous episode, we lost Nanami. Apart from that, each chapter of the manga also continues to fill the pages with brutal deaths. Kenjaku and other curses continue to wreak havoc in Shibuya Arc in the anime, and the last few episodes took a heavy toll on the sorcerers, especially Yuji Itadori. Since the very beginning of the series, Yuji flaunted his playful nature, but the recent episodes of JJK Season 2 made the boy go through a lot of trauma, leaving fans worried about him. Jujutsu Kaisen fandom worries about Yuji Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 17 witnessed the battle that is already being considered the best-animated fight of the year by the community. Yes, we are talking about the destructive war between the curse lord Sukuna and Mahoraga, the shikigami who isn’t easy to subjugate. The King of Curses brought the calamity to the place once called the heart of Shibuya. He does everything using Yuji’s body, and that’s why when the young boy gets control of his body, he is seen sobbing badly. He knew that he had to stand and fight the curses for the sake of Gojo and his peers, so he tried to be stable. Well, Gege Akutami is not considered the most brutal author without any reason. The next episode featured Nanami’s brutal death at the hands of Mahito. His last words to Yuji were, “I’ll leave the rest to you.” That time, the way Yuji stood at the place and yelled at Mahito, clearly showcased the pain he felt inside him. But before he could process everything, he had to face another death, and this time, it was Nobara, one of his best friends. She was also killed by the patch-faced curse Mahito. So, we can expect that the next episode will indeed feature Yuji’s wrath on the curse responsible for his loss. The entire community is shaken by Yuji’s current situation, and people have started taking it to social media. One user posted, “I have never seen an anime character suffer more than Yuji for three episodes back to back, man.” A post from another user reads, “Witnessing how Yuji lost Nobara right before his eyes is so painful knowing how he deeply cares for and looks after her.” Even though things are getting complicated for our boy, we hope to see him back on his feet soon and crush every curse to avenge the deaths and sufferings of his loved ones.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans won’t forgive Gege Akutami for Nobara’s fate – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans won’t forgive Gege Akutami for Nobara’s fate CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen fans are unhappy with how Gege Akutami handled Nobara’s death and kept her fate unconfirmed. Jujutsu Kaisen is notorious for being brutal to its characters. Unlike many shonen anime, the series doesn’t shy away from killing the major characters. Among the many Jujutsu Kaisen deaths, one fans think was handled among the worst was Nobara’s death. Nobara Kugisaki, despite being one of the main characters, was seemingly killed during the Shibuya Incident Arc. In Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2, she suffered a gruesome fate after fighting Mahito. Her apparent death has a huge impact on her classmates, particularly Yuji. However, unlike other dead characters in Jujutsu Kaisen, Nobara was never confirmed to have passed on. While she appeared dead during the Shibuya Incident Arc, she wasn’t explicitly stated to be so. This caused major confusion in the fandom and left her fate in question. After her fight against Mahito, the first time her death was addressed was between Yuji and Megumi. That conversation left more questions than answers. In Chapter 144, Yuji asked Megumi what happened to Nobara. Though Megumi didn’t answer, Yuji seemed to understand. While Yuji understood, readers certainly didn’t. In fact, this moment made fans wonder if Nobara was truly dead. If she’d really died, keeping her fate unconfirmed like this would be pointless. However, Jujutsu Kaisen doesn’t really bring back characters from the dead. While the rumination on Nobara’s fate in Jujutsu Kaisen was going on, the story steadily progressed. Now as Sukuna is back to his true body and fighting Yuji after killing Gojo and possessing Megumi’s body, fans think confirming Nobara’s fate now would not add anything to the story. In the latter part of the Shinjuku Showdown Arc, the enemy is too powerful for any of the sorcerers to handle. The only hope left is Yuji who, as the protagonist, has awakened many of his powers, including his cursed technique. At this point in the story, if Nobara is confirmed to be dead, it wouldn’t affect the plot in any way. It has been too long since her supposed death and the grief and shock values are long gone. Revealing her now to be dead would also make keeping her fate unconfirmed for so long absolutely pointless. If Nobara comes back now, it also wouldn’t add much to the plot. Her revival would mean very little since she isn’t strong enough to fight or even assist in defeating Sukuna. This would also raise the question of where she’s been for so long and why she hasn’t joined her friends when they’ve been going through so much. So, Gege Akutami is in a bind now. He’s waited too long to reveal Nobara’s fate in Jujutsu Kaisen, losing the perfect window for such a reveal. Now whatever he does about Nobara, fans are sure they’d end up either disappointed or unaffected. “I mean… no one’s saying her death was written well. They’re just saying that at this point either she’s dead dead or she’ll come back and since the story’s already pretty much over there’s no point,” a user on Reddit wrote their view on the matter. “I’m fairly certain that the reason why so many people are coping about a comeback is because of how sh*t her death was handled,” said another fan. Jujutsu Kaisen still has time to reveal Nobara’s fate, whether it makes a difference or not. Still, it may be a long while. You can spend that time by checking out our explanations on Yuji Itadori’s family, Yuta’s Domain Expansion, and why Ui Ui can’t use soul-swapping on Sukuna.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans want unusual change for the anime – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans want unusual change for the anime Gege Akutami/MAPPAJujutsu Kaisen may have taken the world by storm in the last few years, but its fans still want an unusual change for the anime. The global popularity of Jujutsu Kaisen is no secret. The dark shonen anime has only had two seasons and one prequel\movie so far. Yet that hasn’t stopped it from creating a world record as the most in-demand animated series of 2024. However, viewers believe the anime show lacks some lighter moments. Jujutsu Kaisen is notorious for major character deaths, and when they aren’t dying, those characters are experiencing some depressing events. In short, the series has plenty of tragedies but not enough laughter. Initially, this gave Jujutsu Kaisen an edge over classic shonen anime like One Piece and Naruto. However, after a long bleak period, fans now want some light-hearted filler moments between canon incidents. Fillers are one of the most disliked aspects of anime since they aren’t included in the main storyline. However, there are some upsides, too. Fillers often help with the world-building and creating deeper connections between characters. Jujutsu Kaisen is known for not having any filler episodes, faithfully adapting the original the manga. This works in the anime’s favor, but it also deprives the series of some much-needed lighter moments. In Season 1, the anime compensates for this by adding some comedic bits at the end of the series, labeling them as ‘Jujutsu Stroll’. But these small after-credit segments are missing from Season 2. This has many viewers displeased and asking for more. “More filler…. Please… I can’t handle all the deaths…” wrote one user on Reddit, with another joining, “Ah, yes, Jujutsu Kaisen is the only fandom that wants more filler.” One fan pointed out, “I feel the lack of “filler” or breather arcs in new shonen is an over-correction of all the filler we would get in older shonen anime. It’s very unfortunate because a lot of times, I just want to see the characters get into hilarious things.” Jujutsu Kaisen anime will return, but whether fans’ wish for this change will come true in Season 3 is yet to be seen.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans torn over Yuta’s fate in Chapter 262 – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans torn over Yuta’s fate in Chapter 262 CrunchyrollThe Jujutsu Kaisen manga has revealed Yuta’s body was cut in half, and he used Gojo’s body to defeat Sukuna — however, fans are still unsure whether he will live or not. Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 shocked fans across the globe as Yuta made the most horrific decision to defeat Sukuna. Before Gojo vs. Sukuna, he already planned to take over Gojo’s body if the latter died. While Gojo says he doesn’t care about what happens to his body, he also doesn’t plan on losing. Yuta also worries about Gojo, who had to become a monster for the sake of others. Hence, Yuta takes Gojo’s burden over after his death. The recent chapter ends with Sukuna preparing to open his Malevolent Shrine and Yuta opening Gojo’s Unlimited Void. What’s more, Gojo had already found a solution to Sukuna’s open barrier domain so Yuta could access his memories and have a solid countermeasure for it. Warning: We’re about to enter spoiler territory for the upcoming Chapter 262! Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 262 ends with Rika holding Yuta’s real body and crying over his state. Yuta’s body appears to be stitched up, but he is lifeless because he has swapped his brain with Gojo’s. Fans are divided over whether or not Yuta will live after this fight. “Guys, it’s like the spark of a CT initiating. Maybe Rika thinks Yuta is alive, so she screams, but it’s Kenjaku!! Some smoke is rising from Yuta’s left hand, and the blood is disappearing above his right eye!!,” shared one fan. Another wrote, “This whole deal is going to end with just Yuji standing to take on Sukana. Hate to say it, but it feels like Yuta is being set up to go down.” “I keep saying it’s gonna be Yuji taking out Sukuna when everyone else has fallen, with Sukuna’s own move no less,” said another. You can check out the release date and spoiler speculation for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 262.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans think the series is “unraveling” – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans think the series is “unraveling” CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen is currently one of the most popular manga of all time. But a lot of Jujutsu Kaisen fans are saying that the story has been “unraveling” for a while. Jujutsu Kaisen is currently at the Shinjuku Showdown Arc where the heroes are fighting against Sukuna. While Shinjuku Showdown started on a high note with Sukuna fighting Gojo, fans are finding the pace of the series too abrupt and the storylines too repetitive. In this arc, the ancient sorcerer has fought back-to-back opponents like Gojo, Kashimo, Choso, Yuji, Higuruma, Yuta, Maki, and Kusakabe. He’s defeated all of them in almost the same pattern, with his fight against Gojo being the exception. His most recent opponent will be the foreign sorcerer Miguel. Jujutsu Kaisen readers are not happy with how the series is going. A lot of them have expressed their disappointment over the story’s “unraveling” on platforms like Reddit. They say this arc is not contributing to the characters’ arcs in a way past storylines did. A user commented on this topic, “In my opinion, Gojo’s Past Arc and the Shibuya Incident Arc are the best parts of JJK. It’s really a shame how the final arc is unraveling.” Another fan agreed, saying, “I really enjoyed the culling games and have no complaints. Really, it seems like most of the complaints started with the Shinjuku Showdown.” “I am getting tired of Gege‘s ‘Yeah, well my guy can go Super Saiyan 11’,” a fan wrote. While some readers think the week-long wait may be the cause of this dissatisfaction, some are already disappointed. One of them said, “Ima be honest, I’m only reading now to see how it ends and because I enjoy the anime. To me, the story has been bad since the Culling Games began.” The upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 255 will be released on March 24, 2024, on Manga Plus and Viz Media.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans think Gege Akutami “hates” Gojo – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans think Gege Akutami “hates” Gojo CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami’s advice to Gojo fans has led them to believe that the mangaka hates their favorite character. Jujutsu Kaisen is a popular dark Shonen anime and manga series. The series has several iconic characters, but fans mostly feel drawn toward the cool sensei, Satoru Gojo. However, despite Gojo’s global popularity, not everyone seems to like him – especially the series’ creator. Time and again, the mangaka would drop comments about fans’ beloved characters, making them speechless with the evident dislike toward the strongest sorcerer of the modern era. The eccentric instructor always ranks high in popularity polls, and fans absolutely adore him. However, shortly after Gojo won a major popularity poll, Akutami shared his advice to fans who voted for him. The message is especially for women. Why Jujutsu Kaisen fans believe Gege Akutami hates Gojo Popular Twitter user JJK (Mya) recently shared an old art by Gege Akutami after Satoru Gojo won a popularity poll in Jump Festa 2019. Along with the art, Gege Akutami also gave fans advice: “Those who voted for Gojo. Especially women. Here’s some friendly advice. Pick Nanami.” After all, it’s no secret that Nanami is Gege’s favorite character. As per Comic Book, Gege Akutami shared in an interview from 2022: “At the beginning, my favorite was Sukuna. Mainly for his graphic aspects, which are inspired by everything I had read. Nanami is the first character I managed to create by myself and evolve. So he is my favorite character at the moment.” As for Gojo, the mangaka couldn’t be more salty even if he tried. After the massive success of the Hidden Inventory/Premature Death arc, Gege shared a special message thanking the animators for their hard work. In his long message, Gege simply commented about Gojo with a cute doodle: “The mob characters also got that top-tier animation, huh.” After all, Gojo is literally the protagonist of the entire arc, so calling him a mob character can’t be accurate. However, that’s not the only time Gege was bitter about Gojo. According to Viz Mangaka Musings, Gege Akutami shared in January 2020: “Now that Gojo is gone, it’s looking like 2020’s gonna be a good year.” He made this comment when fans were heartbroken after watching Gojo get sealed in the Shibuya Incident arc. Before that, Viz Mangaka Musings also shared his comment from November 2019: “Something Satoru Gojo doesn’t have… Probably a personality.” Jujutsu Kaisen fans are once again speechless after Gege Akutami’s old comment about Gojo resurfaced. One user commented: “This was when he decided Gojo needed to go, or maybe he did the poll to find out if his death will hurt.” Another fan shared: “Gojo’s first hater was his own creator…” One fan also commented: “This man straight up hates Gojo so much without any solid reason.” While Gojo stans are upset about this comment, some Jujutsu Kaisen fans also support Gege. One fan commented: “I would not blame Gege for picking Nanami. He’s literally the greenest green flag.” One user also commented: “As a fellow Nanami lover, I APPROVE LOUD AND CLEAR.”

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans support animator for controversial anime-only scene – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans support animator for controversial anime-only scene CrunchyrollAlthough Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 has several anime-only scenes, one of the animators has found himself at the center of a controversy. Here’s how fans are supporting his hard work. Jujutsu Kaisen’s recent episode features Aoi Todo helping Yuji fight against his arch nemesis Mahito. The villain succeeds in breaking Yuji’s spirit by giving Nobara a nasty wound. The young sorcerer, who was already drowning in despair, loses all hope. He gives up fighting Mahito, thinking he’s better off dead. However, Aoi Todo swoops in at just the right moment to save his best buddy, whom he always calls a brother. Aoi’s role in Yuji’s life is that of a comrade and a friend. Despite all his talent and intellect, no one can deny that Aoi is one eccentric character. In dire situations, he would think about his idol, Takada-chan, and draw inspiration from her. However, since Jujutsu Kaisen manga doesn’t include it, one of the animators created an anime-only scene in the new episode. Jujutsu Kaisen fans thank animator for divisive anime-only scene The scene in question is the one where Aoi Todo cross-dresses in his imagination. After his locket containing pictures of Yuji and Takada breaks, the anime plays a pop song, and Aoi finds the courage to continue fighting. He imagines his idol Takada supporting him from behind. She shows him which moves to use against Mahito, and at some point, he wears the same outfit as her. All this happens around a glittery pink background with the pop song still playing. Even the song has motivational lyrics that fit the situation. However, the scene is hilarious, even though Yuji and Aoi are fighting for their lives. The manga only shows the scene where Aoi’s necklace breaks. By that time, he had already lost his hand and innate technique. However, in the anime-only addition, he imagines himself fighting with both hands. When reality hits, Aoi realizes that while one of his hands is cut off, the other one is already burned. The one who pitched in the idea and beautifully crafted it is animator HoneHone. The cross-dressing scene wasn’t well-received among some fans from Arab countries due to cultural differences. While some criticized it, more fans came out to support the animator’s work. HoneHone has been part of the JJK staff for a very long time, and fans made sure to encourage him in the face of backlash. One fan supporting Honehone wrote: “Yesterday, I saw the criticism you were subjected to, and I am very sad for you. My friend, what you did was wonderful, and I support you because I liked it, and I wish you success in your life and your job.” They also shared a heart emoticon along with a still of Aoi and Takada-chan. Another fan posted: “Sad and unfortunate to see so many people harassing HoneHone because of his idea on the Todo scene, but I guess acting civilized and normal is out of reach for many people here. sometimes you need to keep your opinions to yourself.” A third user shared: “The JJK controversy over the Todo scene is so dumb, I’m a Muslim myself, so obviously I don’t like crossdressing either, but harassing Honehone is going way too far.” Another user commented: “That was easily one of the best scenes of the season, I could not stop smiling the whole time while watching it. So peak.” Here’s a look at the scene, which blessed fans with unexpected humor amid all the depressing moments: How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023 Crunchyroll is the world’s best hub for streaming anime, whether it’s One Piece, Attack on Titan, or Jujutsu Kaisen – and thanks to ExpressVPN, you can access the platform’s full library even if you’re outside the US.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans split over Geto’s reaction to Yuta’s plan – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans split over Geto’s reaction to Yuta’s plan CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261 reveals Yuta’s plan to transfer his brain to Gojo’s corpse, and fans are now split over Geto’s reaction. The new Jujutsu Kaisen chapter brings Gojo back from the dead, but with a twist. Though he returns in the story, he’s not actually himself as the brain and the soul that reside within his body belong to Yuta. After Gojo died and Yuta was lethally injured by Sukuna, the young sorcerer used Rika to eat Kenjaku and acquire his cursed technique. With Kenjaku’s technique, he transferred his brain into Gojo’s dead body to get access to his Six Eyes and Limitless. Though this plan is made because only Gojo, as the strongest sorcerer of the present, has a possibility of defeating Sukuna, it also requires a tremendous sacrifice from both Yuta and Gojo. Yuta has to give up his own body forever and live inside another person while Gojo has to be treated as a weapon even after his death. The plan that Yuta comes up with in Chapter 261 is selfless on his part but it’s also inhumane to both him and Gojo. This shocking yet depressing treatment of Gojo is what makes fans wonder how Geto would’ve reacted to this if he was alive. Gojo and Geto were best friends during their youth and even after they parted ways, they continued to care for each other. In fact, Geto might be one of the very few characters in Jujutsu Kaisen who saw Gojo as more than just the strongest sorcerer meant to be used as a weapon. Their poignant and heartbreaking friendship indicates that Geto wouldn’t have approved Gojo’s corpse being used as a weapon. However, one particular dialogue of his has caused many fans to have a different view on this subject. During their separation at the end of Gojo’s Past Arc, Geto told Gojo how the Six Eyes wielder had the power to change the jujutsu society and if Geto had Gojo’s powers, he would’ve done it already. This one line makes some fans think that Geto viewed Gojo as a weapon himself and wanted his power to achieve his own goal. However, others come forward with a counterargument, reminding that Geto hated sorcerers being used as weapons and he only said those words to Gojo to curb the latter’s arrogance. One X user shared their opinion on this topic and posts, “If Geto was still alive, he would’ve been the one to take over Gojo’s body because that’s a huge part of his character.” “Yeah he would agree and would proceed to offer himself as the one being transferred (if possible) because after fighting Sukuna he would go on to kill every non sorcerer,” another user with a similar view says. However, many fans interpret Geto’s words in another way, as one points out, “It just proves that Geto didn’t treat Gojo as a weapon, because Geto never asked him for help, even though he was the strongest.” “Geto’s whole ideology was actually founded on not treating any sorcerers like weapons,” is what another fan has to say about this. While Geto’s reaction to Gojo’s treatment is arguable, Geto’s question to Gojo gets a whole new meaning in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 261. The chapter will be released on May 26, 2024.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans slam “imposter” after viral Season 3 post – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans slam “imposter” after viral Season 3 post CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is still ongoing, but a viral post recently surfaced on social media teasing Season 3 of the popular anime series. However, fans are not happy with the news. Jujutsu Kaisen is one of the most sensational anime that helped Japanese animation to be recognized worldwide. The manga started serialization in 2018, and after two years, it made the community go bonkers with its anime adaptation. Undoubtedly, the first season was terrific, but when the second season arrived, JJK gained even more popularity thanks to its mind-boggling animation style and unexpected plot twists. Recently, MAPPA faced a lot of slack due to a number of controversies, so fans were unsure if JJK Season 2 would have a smooth run. Recently, when an X user named Gege Akutami teased a third season, everyone rejoiced in excitement. However, sometimes things aren’t what they seem. Fake Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 announcement sparks anger A fan-made poster emerged on X/Twitter via a fake account using the name of JJK’s creator, Gege Akutami. Even though they eventually deleted it, the imposter accumulated a massive number of followers quite quickly. Myamura, a reputed JJK leaker, shared it on his profile after the fake poster received a warning from the anime community for posting misleading information. He also said that it’s sad how the fake account is gaining more followers with each passing day, but it’s hoped the account will soon be suspended. Several users have reported the account, but it’s still active. The community note reads: “The posts from this account are misleading.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans shocked by the weirdest anime-only scene – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans shocked by the weirdest anime-only scene CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen Season 2 features a lot of anime-only scenes, but one of them is extremely weird – so here’s what fans have to say about it. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 18 focuses on Nanami’s death in the first half, while the second half features Yuji vs Mahito. After watching Nanami get blown to pieces, Yuji is overwhelmed with anger and frustration. He was already at a breaking point after Sukuna destroyed the entire Shibuya ward. To make matters worse, Yuji also loses Nanami only a few minutes later. Mahito takes advantage of his grief and tries to break him emotionally during the fight. Just like most episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2, this week also featured several anime-only scenes. However, one of those scenes has left fans completely shocked by how weird it was. Jujutsu Kaisen fans shocked by a weird detail in the anime Yuji vs. Mahito features several anime-only details, but one thing that caught the attention of Jujutsu Kaisen fans is the moment Mahito leans in to kiss Yuji, but his mouth quickly turns into a blade and stabs the wall. Of course, his mouth is supposed to stab Yuji, but the latter luckily misses it. Mahito’s cursed technique allows him to manipulate the shape of his own body as well as others. Naturally, fans are shocked by this detail and are posting about it on social media. They’re basically joking about the scene that they never saw in the manga. One user shared: “Mahito saw the trauma Sukuna left with Yuji and decided to one-up him by trying to kiss Yuji.” Another user’s comment reads: “Mahito has one of the most creative fighting styles, it’s so unique what he does, especially when he tried to kiss Yuji.” One fan also joked about Yuta Okkotsu, who bit a curse’s mouth in the manga: “If this happened to Yuta, maybe he will kiss Mahito back LOL.” Another user joked: “Mahito really tried to cheer up Yuji with a kiss I mean stab, eyes closed and everything. What a menace.” Needless to say, the fight itself was well choreographed in Jujutsu Kaisen anime, as one fan shared: “I think I’ve watched this scene for about 20x now, and it’s still unbelievable how perfect this voice acting is. First, the scream of Yuji and then the way Mahito screamed “ITADORI YUUUJII” is just perfect.” How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023 Crunchyroll is the world’s best hub for streaming anime, whether it’s One Piece, Attack on Titan, or Jujutsu Kaisen – and thanks to ExpressVPN, you can access the platform’s full library even if you’re outside the US.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans shocked by “insane” Yuji theory – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans shocked by “insane” Yuji theory CrunchyrollAs fans await Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 262, a recent Yuji theory is blowing their mind. But what is it about, and is their reaction valid? The Jujutsu Kaisen manga is finally nearing the end of the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. The arc started in Chapter 222 and features the fight against Sukuna and Kenjaku. After suffering several casualties, the sorcerers are close to their victory. Yuta uses the final resort when he’s at death’s door as he takes over Gojo’s body. Fans have mixed reactions toward this plot twist. Some believe it’s a normal path for a sorcerer as they’re always forced to give up on their humanity. However, others think it’s disrespectful to Gojo, especially since his student is the one taking over his body. Needless to say, body-hopping has always been common in Jujutsu Kaisen. Yuji, the protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen, is unaware of the sorcerer’s plans, which is why a theory about him shocks fans entirely. Some fans are under the impression that Yuji would switch sides if he learns the truth. However, Yuji also does something immoral by eating Death Paintings. He would be shocked and upset over Yuta’s decision, but only because he cares about both Yuta and Gojo. Still, there’s no way he’s turning against his friend. “Why is this same concept trending on Twitter and TikTok? It’s a stupid theory that makes absolutely no sense. Yuji is not becoming a villain. If anyone does, it’ll be Megumi, but I doubt that will happen,” says one fan. Another fan shares, “Yuji will be distressed, but hating Yuta is something I doubt he’d do. He can disapprove, but he’s not selfish enough to not realize that such a decision wasn’t made on a whim and had a lot of emotional weight on Yuta.” “JJK fans will do anything to mischaracterize the cast. Without a doubt, Yuji would understand better than anyone why Yuta took the actions he did, considering Yuji has the best understanding of how much of a threat Sukuna is to humanity and how important it is to stop him immediately,” comments another. The upcoming chapter will feature the domain clash between Yuta and Sukuna. You can check out the release date and spoiler speculation for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 262.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans shocked by Gege Akutami’s real-life story – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans shocked by Gege Akutami’s real-life story CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen fans find the real-life backstory of creator Gege Akutami to be quite shocking – so here’s what you need to know. Even among the dark fantasy series, Jujutsu Kaisen has its fair share of tragedies. The series is popular not only for its incredible story and iconic characters but also for the insane number of deaths. Creator Gege Akutami might even be used to fans’ bashing as their favorite characters die one after another. The series created quite a lot of controversy in 2023 with the anime season and manga’s battle of the strongest. The anime aired its second season in 2023 and has confirmed its third season, which has yet to get a release date. Regardless of how much hate the creator gets, the series still remains one of the most popular in this era. As the manga is currently in its final stretch, Jujutsu Kaisen characters are fighting against the main villains. Delve deeper to find out how Jujutsu Kaisen fans are reacting to Gege Akutami’s real-life backstory. Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami’s backstory February 26 is Gege Akutami’s birthday. While wishing the mangaka on his birthday, JJK leaker also shared Gege’s story: “As a child, Akutami habitually fibbed, filched food, broke things, and blamed the dog. Thus, when Akutami came home after actually getting hit by a car, no one believed him. “In 1999, Akutami was a champion in a death game that involved taking turns rubbing medication used for treating insect bites on one’s nether regions, for which he attracted a lot of attention and had to disappear for a while.” Naturally, fans are losing it in the comments in a hilarious way. One fan commented: “Gege’s villain era started because of a dog?!” “I always knew he was a couple donuts short of a dozen,” shared another. One comment said: “The driver who hit Gege was a time traveler who read JJK.” Another comment said: “So, just like in Jujutsu Society, you have to be a little crazy to be a sorcerer and fit in. Gege is like that in real life.” Apart from the mangaka’s age and pen name, everything about him remains a mystery. Like most mangaka, Gege Akutami stays away from the public eye to protect his privacy, so much so that fans don’t even know his real name. Hence, the information about Gege’s hilarious backstory is surely interesting to Jujutsu Kaisen fans.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans say this character is most similar to Sukuna – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans say this character is most similar to Sukuna CrunchyrollOne of the best things about Jujutsu Kaisen is its characters, and there’s one who’s consistently in the spotlight: the series’ main antagonist, Ryomen Sukuna. Though a wonderfully unique character, Jujutsu Kaisen fans find one character most similar to Sukuna. If we’re describing Sukuna’s personality, brash, arrogant, greedy, and self-centered would all be fair adjectives. While there are a few characters in the Jujutsu Kaisen cast who share the same attributes, forget Gojo and Yuji: fans think Kinji Hakari is most similar to Sukuna. Kinji Hakari is a major character yet to make an appearance in the anime. He’s a third-year student at Tokyo Jujutsu High and is set to play a crucial role in the Culling Game Arc. The reason Yuji and his classmates don’t meet Hakari early in the story is because he was suspended for angering the high-ups. According to Jujutsu Kaisen manga readers, not only do Sukuna and Hakari share some personality traits but there are also other similarities between them. There is a likeness between their physiques; both of them are tall and muscular and carry themselves with a certain gravitas. A user points out on Reddit that each of them also has a sidekick of their own: Sukuna has his loyal follower Uraume while Hakari has his classmate Kirara. The two sidekicks also share a certain similarity. Uraume is called the Frozen Star and Kirara’s cursed technique is related to constellations. Sukuna and Hakari both are people whose ideologies are outside the norm of the jujutsu world. They are both greedy and self-centered individuals who normally only think of themselves. However, if the situation calls for it, they are not above putting their own lives on the line. But when it comes to their cursed techniques and domain expansions, their difference becomes clear. Hakari’s CT and domain are both rather modern and complicated whereas the techniques Sukuna has used until now have all been more raw and organic. However, if we look closely at their fighting styles, their similarities become visible once again. Hakari’s CT and domain may be too convoluted and modern but he relies entirely on his skills and luck in battles, something that the ancient sorcerer also does. Unlike characters like Gojo who is practically untouchable and Yuji who is way too selfless, Hakari matches the lust for a good battle in Sukuna and isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty. All these logics do support the theory that Hakari is the character most similar to Sukuna. In the manga, they are yet to face each other with Hakari fighting Uraume and Sukuna obliterating anyone who comes before him. Maybe these similar characters will get to fight each other soon.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans rally around “cooked” leaker after arrests – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans rally around “cooked” leaker after arrests CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen fans have been left feeling concerned after suspected manga leakers were arrested in Japan. Jujutsu Kaisen has been in the news quite a bit lately, be it because of the controversy around MAPPA or the events in the anime and manga. Given the popularity of the series, it’s no surprise that fans around the world react to every piece of news. The popular manga has already entered its final phase, and there’s no denying that every weekly chapter is keeping every animanga enthusiast on the edge of their seats. There is a high chance that we will finally learn about Yuta’s domain expansion in the upcoming chapter after waiting for a long time. Furthermore, Yuta has severed Kenjaku, and now, it’s time for him to confront Sukuna. With several intriguing things right around the corner, how can fans not react to the possibility of the Japanese police penalizing their beloved leaker, Myamura? Jujutsu Kaisen fandom reacts to manga leakers’ arrest In Japan Two foreign nationals suspected of leaking spoilers from Shonen Jump mangas were recently arrested by Japanese authorities. These two individuals have been accused of posting screenshots of the manga panels before their official release. So, when the police seized every item from the leakers, fans were shocked to see a screengrab of Myamura. The manga market has skyrocketed over the years, but we’ve also seen several individuals bring the early spoilers of the chapters ahead of their official release. Eventually, they became the primary source for coming up with the chapters, and fans started relying on them instead of the official platforms like Viz Media, Manga Plus, and more. One of these came out to be Musa Samir, a 36-year-old businessman residing in Tokyo, and the other’s identity is yet to be revealed. After the news of their arrest surfaced, several reputed leakers on X, including OP Scans, deleted their accounts instantly. So, Jujutsu Kaisen fans are constantly keeping an eye on Myamura’s account as they don’t want his account to get suspended.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans only like one thing about Chapter 268 – and it’s not Sukuna’s defeat – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans only like one thing about Chapter 268 – and it’s not Sukuna’s defeat CrunchyrollWhile Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 268 finally sees the end of Sukuna, fans think Yuji, Megumi, and Nobara’s reunion is the only good thing about the chapter. Jujutsu Kaisen’s ending gets one step closer with Chapter 268. The new chapter shows Sukuna being ripped out of Megumi’s body before he dies, freeing the young sorcerer at last. We also see the end of the long-going but off-screen fight between Hakari and Uraume. With so many major events crammed into one chapter, readers are bound to feel overwhelmed. However, many have complained about the chapter feeling rushed and underwhelming, starting with Sukuna’s end. After parting from Megumi’s body, Sukuna is reduced to a bug-like form and eventually dies. Following this, we see Hakari and Uraume stopping their battle in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 268. They’re both equally injured, so it’s safe to say that their fight is far from over. However, sensing Sukuna’s death, Uraume takes their own life, ending the fight in an anti-climactic way. The rest of the chapter shows Megumi and Nobara receiving letters left by Gojo. He left Nobara’s mother’s information for her, though she said she never wondered, while to Megumi, he confessed his role in killing his father. The chapter ends with the group going to ‘help’ Yuta. Fans think none of these incidents quite fit in the picture. It feels rushed and anti-climactic. The only thing they like about Chapter 268 is the reunion of the main trio. As one wrote on X, “All I’m happy about is the Megumi outcome but everything else is so… bad, unfortunately.” “I’m f**king crying no way did nearly a whole year of anticipation conclude with Uraume killing themselves. Gege wtf,” commented another. “There are many ways to end a fight like that, this one was not it 100%,” one fan shared, with another joining, “Bruh at this point I think Gege just wants to quickly get over this series.” “WE’VE BEEN THROUGH TOO MUCH TO SEE THIS MOMENT,” added one about the trio’s reunion. While Chapter 268 is receiving criticism, Jujutsu Kaisen still has three chapters left before its grand finale. Catch the upcoming chapter on September 1 and final chapter on September 30, 2024. Know more about the manga before it ends with our guides on Yuji’s domain expansion and the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. You can also find out the questions Jujutsu Kaisen’s ending needs to answer.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans have one fear about Sukuna’s ending – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans have one fear about Sukuna’s ending CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen fans fear Sukuna will receive an underwhelming conclusion at the end, like many other great villains. Jujutsu Kaisen didn’t dally in introducing its most menacing antagonist. We meet Ryomen Sukuna right off the bat, and from the very beginning, we knew he won’t be easy to take down. Sukuna has been surpassing the already high expectations of fans since then. Initially housed inside Yuji like a lurking doom, his threat becomes more real at the end of the Culling Game Arc when he takes over Megumi’s body. Since then, his trajectory has only increased before reaching its peak in the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. During this arc, we finally found out who’s stronger between Sukuna and Gojo as the past’s strongest killed the present’s. After that, Sukuna fought one opponent after another and has been behind many major character deaths. He’s become so powerful that the sorcerers have little to no hope of defeating him even after trying everything in their arsenal. But now that the hype has gone too high, fans are concerned if there’ll be a perfect landing. As proven numerous times with numerous franchises, the final boss’ end can be a big letdown. Just think about Death Note’s Light Yagami or Naruto’s Kaguya Otsutsuki or Fairy Tail’s Acnologia even. The same could happen to Sukuna. “I respect how much of a force of nature he is, but I’m concerned that his death will be underwhelming considering how hyped up his abilities have become,” shared one user on Reddit. Another joined, “This is also my fear, too. This is always a concern when an enemy is miles above the rest and their battle goes on for a time. At some point, we need to make this personal for it to carry weight. Yuji needs to have a one-on-one with Sukuna.” “It’s definitely going to be him getting burnt out and it’ll just be ‘Yup I guess that’s it’,” replied a third. Fans’ doubt regarding this isn’t completely unfounded, as Jujutsu Kaisen has already killed a major antagonist in an underwhelming way. After causing so much mayhem, Kenjaku was ultimately taken down by a surprise attack from Yuta, something fans are still unhappy with. Find out more about the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen break and the Jujutsu Kaisen ending. You can also check out fans’ opinion about Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263’s cliffhanger.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans obsessed with new NASA post – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans obsessed with new NASA post CrunchyrollNASA shared a photo of Tokyo from outer space to mark the new year – and it was quickly flooded by Jujutsu Kaisen fans. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 may be over, but the fanbase has yet to calm down. We’ll be waiting a while for the third season, but anime enthusiasts can’t stop talking about the series. The animation quality and the events that happened in the second season made JJK even more popular. So, it’s not surprising to see fans still going crazy for the show. Also, Jujutsu Kaisen is notable for its enormous reach across the world, with millions of viewers tuning in globally and never failing to miss any minor news related to Gege Akutami’s animanga. Jujutsu Kaisen fans flood NASA photo of Tokyo On January 1, 2024, NASA’s Johnson Space Center shared pictures of Tokyo that were captured from space during the night. The images were captioned: “Wishing you a new year that sparkles as bright as the city lights from space.” As soon as the post from NASA surfaced online, several JJK fans wrote: “You Are My Special.” For those unaware, ‘You Are My Special’ is the opening theme of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2. And by mentioning that song in the comments, the fandom was hinting at the destruction that followed after Sukuna and Mahoraga’s fight. In NASA’s image, we can see the entire Tokyo shining with lights, but a huge section was engulfed in darkness after the fierce battle in Jujutsu Kaisen S2. It’s worth mentioning that the Tokyo that Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 featured looked the same as the real pictures by NASA – thanks to the animators of MAPPA who worked their sweat out to give us such a masterpiece. However, the beauty of Tokyo was seen getting demolished in Mahoraga Vs. Sukuna. Not only the beauty of the heart of Tokyo but also several innocent people were killed during the battle.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans mourn Yuji Itadori’s lost innocence – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans mourn Yuji Itadori’s lost innocence CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen fans have been subjected to death after death of their beloved characters. But things have now gone from bad to worse. Can Yuji Itadori recover? Jujutsu Kaisen has had a difficult run in Season 2. From MAPPA’s seemingly constant controversies to an endless stream of high-profile character deaths, it’s all become a bit much for some fans. Why? Following the death of the 9-5 sorcerer Kento Nanami – right in front of Yuji Itadori, which placed the heavy burden of blame on the young sorcerer – another death sent shockwaves through the Jujutsu Kaisen world. Mahito adds Nobara Kugisaki to his long list of victims in Season 2 Episode 19. Fans were heartbroken, with some even taking to X/Twitter to declare that they could no longer watch their show. But no one was more affected then Yuji Itadori himself. Fans react to Yuji Itadori’s response Season 2 of Jujutsu Kaisen no longer resembles the shonen series we fell in love with, back in October 2020. Stakes were always high. But where Season 1 had plenty of humor to disperse the darkness, lighter moments are now few and far between. The death of Nobara Kugisaki at only 16-years-old devastated the Jujutsu Kaisen, with Twitter exploding with fan reactions. But the way it impacted 15-year-old Yuji Itadori was even more heartbreaking. It’s easy to forget just how young Itadori is, with everything that he’s been through over the course of the series. And it’s easy to forget how fun-loving and carefree he was before the spark that endeared him to everyone was slowly extinguished over the course of Season 2. Yuji Itadori from Jujutsu Kaisen has experienced more pain than most teenagers. In the first episode we saw his grandfather die. Then Mahito killed his friend Junpei, his safety net Satorou Gojo followed, and the Shibuya Incident arc took things to the extreme when he witnessed the deaths of Nanami Kento and Kugisaki Nobara. And fans are not happy. With one even taking to Reddit to post, “Seriously with the rate main characters are killed who are we supposed to care for in future seasons?” Over the past few months fans have taken to social media to express sympathy for Yuji Itadori. And they’ve also voiced their dislike of the endless suffering cycle. With one user posting on Reddit, “Welcome to the itadori pain train.” While another followed with, “… my poor boy Yuji just cant catch a break.” Mahito’s impact on Itadori Mahito is one of the least liked characters in the entire Jujutsu Kaisen franchise (and one of the most effective villains). You only need to talk to go on social media to interact with someone watching to show to know that fans can’t wait for him to meet his demise. It’s clear watching Mahito claim life after life over the series, that he enjoys seeing people lose their loved ones. Especially in the case of Yuji Itadori. Over the course of the Shibuya Incident arc, we’ve watched Itadori go from being a happy and bubbly teenager to someone trapped in a dark cycle of depression. The most prominent Jujutsu Kaisen Twitter fan account is leading the Mahito hate train, posting “Mahito needs to be stopped.” Who is to blame for Yuji Itadori’s suffering? It’s only natural that fans will search for someone to blame for Yuji Itadori’s pain throughout Jujutsu Kaisen’s Shibuya Incident arc. And, of course, it was only a matter of time before fingers were pointed at mangaka Gege Akutami. The death of Satoru Gojo in September sparked significant backlash against Gege Akutami. And it has only worsened now that audiences have witnessed the demise of more beloved characters and the loss of Yuji Itadori’s light-hearted personality. On Twitter, one user posted, “Gege give yuji a break”, while others have written slightly light-hearted threats, as shown below. Jujutsu Kaisen won fans over when it first debuted thanks to its gritty undertone. While its sad to see so many characters dying and Yuji Itadori’s decent into depression, no one can say that Gege Akutami hasn’t crafted a gripping universe that we just can’t help but find ourselves trapped in.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans mourn death of their favorite character in chapter 236 – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans mourn death of their favorite character in chapter 236 CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen chapter 236 is the most shocking ever as it confirms the death of a fan-favorite character. Here’s what really happened. Jujutsu Kaisen ended its previous chapter by almost confirming Gojo’s victory. The battle of the strongest was the most intriguing fight in the series. It ends in chapter 235, where Kusakabe declares Gojo to be the victor. Gojo had the upper hand throughout the entire battle, so his victory wasn’t all too shocking. Despite several fans worrying over his fate, Gojo was too confident. As such, he launches his most devastating Hollow Purple and blows up Shinjuku with it. However, Gojo fans didn’t get to rejoice in his victory for too long before a tragedy struck. Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236 changes the entire course of the battle. Delve deeper to find out what happened. Which fan-favorite character dies in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236? Jujutsu Kaisen’s beloved sensei, Satoru Gojo, meets his end in chapter 236. Gojo has been a fan-favorite character since the very beginning. With his charm, his humor, and his strength, fans can’t find any reason to dislike him. Gojo was sealed in the Shibuya Incident arc and was freed much later in the series. As soon as he came out, he fought Sukuna in Shinjuku. The battle was incredibly intense, as it should be. One is the strongest sorcerer alive, and the other is the King of Curses. Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236 confirms his tragic death with panels of his upper body lying lifeless on the ground while the lower half is standing in front of Sukuna. Gojo meets his deceased friends, Geto, Nanami, Haibara, Riko, and Kuroi. At first, we see Geto and Gojo in their high school uniform, so it looks like a flashback scene. But we soon learn that he is talking with the spirits of his deceased friends. After he bids farewell to all of them, the scene changes to reality. It’s something Gojo fans would never have wanted to see, no matter what. Twitter/X is already flooding with fans expressing their remorse over the death of their favorite character. Fans have always been concerned about Gojo’s death, but the previous chapter washed off all their worries when Kusakabe declared Gojo’s victory. However, Sukuna had a trick up his sleeve, which Gojo didn’t see coming. In the end, the strongest sorcerer alive left the world without any regrets and was glad that he died at the hands of someone stronger than him.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans have figured out the manga’s next big twist – and it’s clever – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans have figured out the manga’s next big twist – and it’s clever CrunchyrollJujutsu Kaisen has set up another big fight, between Kusakabe and Sukuna, however, fans think all is not what it seems in the burgeoning duel. One of the things that makes Jujutsu Kaisen such a hit is the intensity of the battles. Watching different sorcerers face off against each other in the anime show and Gege Akutami’s manga is captivating, especially when it comes to high-level combatants, like Sukuna, the King of Curses. That’s been the case for several chapters now, as characters face Sukuna in succession to try wear him down and defeat the ancient evil. Now, it’s Kusakabe’s turn to face the multi-armed monstrosity. Fans are pretty sure Akutami isn’t telling us everything, though. And if they’re right, it’ll be a very satisfying twist. Jujutsu Kaisen fans think Kusakabe is just stalling Sukuna In Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 253, Kusakabe faces Sukuna in what seems to be a one-on-one battle. Though Sukuna is definitely more powerful, it seems like an epic moment is about to get underway. On Reddit, though, readers posit another possibility: Kusakabe is a distraction. A number of characters have to recover, such as Todo and Yuji, who we haven’t seen in a few chapters. Kusakabe has no intention of posing a real threat to Sukuna, instead simply biding time for someone better suited to lay the killing blow. It’s an intriguing possibility, and it has some fans excited. “Honestly if we get Kusakabe stalling while the others regroup I’m going to be the happiest person in the world,” says one YouTube comment. This is only speculation, but it makes sense. Kusakabe hasn’t been positioned as someone capable of holding a torch to Sukuna, and such twists are becoming more common for Akutami. One thing is definitely true: Jujutsu Kaisen continues to be one of the most exciting manga available.

  • Jujutsu Kaisen fans all hope Gege Akutami does one thing once the manga ends – Dexerto

    Jujutsu Kaisen fans all hope Gege Akutami does one thing once the manga ends CrunchyrollAs Jujutsu Kaisen inches closer to ending, fans have started to wonder what’s next for Gege Akutami, though they all have one belief for what he should do. Right now, Jujutsu Kaisen is in the middle of the battle of the strongest to defeat Sukuna for good. All the strongest sorcerers are taking shots, trying to bring down the demonic entity once and for all. The exchange has been epic so far, and Chapter 262 will be continuing the momentous conflict. With the finale coming together, a fan on Reddit has wondered if Gege might decide to revisit his pre-Jujutsu Kaisen work once Sukuna’s dealt with. While it’s a possibility Gege could return to an older manga, such as Nikai Bongai Barabarujuraor No. 9, everyone really just wants him to have a good rest. “I’d love to see him take a much needed break, I know manga schedules are notoriously killer,” says one fan on Reddit. “Hopefully the money he’s set with lets him breathe and he can come back with another story years from now when he’s ready and on his own schedule.” The rampant popularity of Jujutsu Kaisen has probably granted Gege considerable financial security, but better than that, it could give him a chance to dictate how he works better. “I do think if he does come back, he’ll probably come back working under the same conditions that Sui Ishida is working under. He’ll be allowed to draw when he wants in a bi-weekly schedule,” says another commenter. Sui, creator of Tokyo Ghoul, returned with Choujin X in 2021, a manga that runs more to their schedule than the publisher’s. Tokyo Ghoul gave them that bargaining power, and since Jujutsu Kaisen has been such an epic, Gege has definitely earned the same privileges. Once Gege has had some time, fans believe a couple Jujutsu Kaisen one-shots are likely. In the interest of speculation, a collaboration is thrown around, potentially with the creator of Chainsaw Man. “It’s a pipe dream, but I thought it would be neat if Akutami collaborated with Tatsuki Fujimoto on a manga,” says a fan on Reddit. “Fujimoto has mentioned he is interested in stepping back from illustrating his manga once Chainsaw Man is finished, and their talents are complementary.” That truly would be special — but only if Gege feels up to it, and only after we’ve seen where Jujutsu Kaisen will end.
