Jujutsu Kaisen fans mourn Yuji Itadori\u2019s 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\u2019s seemingly constant controversies to an endless stream of high-profile character deaths, it\u2019s all become a bit much for some fans. Why? Following the death of the 9-5 sorcerer Kento Nanami \u2013 right in front of Yuji Itadori, which placed the heavy burden of blame on the young sorcerer \u2013 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\u2019s 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\u2019s easy to forget just how young Itadori is, with everything that he\u2019s been through over the course of the series. And it\u2019s 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, \u201cSeriously with the rate main characters are killed who are we supposed to care for in future seasons?\u201d Over the past few months fans have taken to social media to express sympathy for Yuji Itadori. And they\u2019ve also voiced their dislike of the endless suffering cycle. With one user posting on Reddit, \u201cWelcome to the itadori pain train.\u201d While another followed with, \u201c\u2026 my poor boy Yuji just cant catch a break.\u201d Mahito\u2019s 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\u2019t wait for him to meet his demise. It\u2019s 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\u2019ve 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 \u201cMahito needs to be stopped.\u201d Who is to blame for Yuji Itadori\u2019s suffering? It\u2019s only natural that fans will search for someone to blame for Yuji Itadori\u2019s pain throughout Jujutsu Kaisen\u2019s 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\u2019s light-hearted personality. On Twitter, one user posted, \u201cGege give yuji a break\u201d, 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\u2019s decent into depression, no one can say that Gege Akutami hasn\u2019t crafted a gripping universe that we just can\u2019t help but find ourselves trapped in.
