Jujutsu Kaisen creator has a new favorite \u2013 but it\u2019s not who you think Gege Akutami\/MAPPAAn old art from Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 18 has recently resurfaced, revealing creator Gege Akutami has an unexpected favorite character. Jujutsu Kaisen fans are long aware of its creator\u2019s intriguing personal style. Not only is he notorious for killing major characters left and right but he isn\u2019t also always kind to his own characters, as seen through his vocal dislike for the popular Gojo. However, Akutami still has some fondness for certain characters. In the past, he revealed Kento Nanami as his favorite in the series. But that didn\u2019t stop him from brutally killing Nanami during the Shibuya Incident, in front of Yuji no less! Because of this, fans have a suspicion that Akutami\u2019s real favorite character has been Sukuna all along. He\u2019s the only one who receives any kind of plot armor in the series and according to readers, the author is hellbent on keeping the villain alive at all costs. However, the Jujutsu Kaisen creator has left his fans spiraling again by revealing his new favorite. In Volume 18 extras, Akutami drew a picture of himself in his cat avatar (the figure he uses for himself to avoid showing his real face) giving Valentine\u2019s chocolate to Choso. In Japan, Valentine\u2019s chocolates are given to the person you admire, whether romantically or platonically. By choosing to give Choso the chocolates, Akutami revealed he is indeed fond of the eldest Death Painting. That makes sense, too, as Choso is one of the best characters in Jujutsu Kaisen. He starts as an antagonist, determined to exact revenge after Yuji and Nobara kill his brothers. But his fight against Yuji at Shibuya awakens his false memories and reveals his true relationship with the protagonist. Since then, Choso has acted as a loving and protective big brother to Yuji. However, Akutami once again proved how little being his favorite matters as Choso, too, dies in the series. What\u2019s more, he sacrifices himself for Yuji, dying in front of his shocked little brother. \u201cGege is just like us omg,\u201d one fan replied, with a second agreeing \u201cGege if you like Choso bring him back\u2026\u201d \u201cHe created such an amazing man that he wanted him for himself,\u201d a third weighed in.
