Is Shinjuku Showdown the final Jujutsu Kaisen arc? Gege Akutami\/MAPPAShinjuku Showdown Arc sees the sorcerers finally join forces to fight against Sukuna. This has led many to believe that this is the final Jujutsu Kaisen Arc ever, but is that true? Jujutsu Kaisen is currently one of the biggest manga and anime series in the world. Despite being relatively young, with its first chapter releasing in 2018, it\u2019s already competing with older titles like One Piece, My Hero Academia, and Black Clover. Over its six years of serialization, Jujutsu Kaisen has had 11 arcs, with Shinjuku Showdown ongoing right now. This arc started in 2023 with Chapter 222 and has been running for 40 chapters. Shinjuku Showdown is known for the much-anticipated fight between Gojo and Sukuna, and shows the sorcerers hitting rock bottom as Sukuna regains his original body and full strength. It\u2019s considered one of the best Jujutsu Kaisen arcs, but is it the last one? Is Shinjuku Showdown the final arc of Jujutsu Kaisen? Shinjuku Showdown is the final arc of Jujutsu Kaisen. After much speculation, the ending of the manga is finally confirmed by the author. In a recent interview, Gege Akutami revealed how the Culling Game Arc is the constructed as the penultimate arc of the manga, meant to set things up for the final arc. \u201cI thought of it as a crutch for taking us towards the Inhumane Makyo Shinjuku arc (final section\/saga). I had already decided on the things that had to happen (like characters and Colony stuff),\u201d revealed the author, \u201cbut I kept each Colony segment contained to be its own individual volume, and thought about how to make them as exciting as possible as I progressed.\u201d He continued, \u201cI remember having a discussion with my Editor about how it\u2019d be nice if each Volume should be like its own sort of album.\u201d What\u2019s more, the word the author used to address it means \u201cfinal part\u201d. This cements the fact that Jujutsu Kaisen is really ending with the ongoing arc. And it\u2019s coming sooner than we\u2019d like. As the manga\u2019s author teased earlier: \u201cJujutsu Kaisen \u2018Shinjuku Showdown\u2019 arc is at its CLIMAX!!\u201d In short, we have little time left with the beloved shonen manga. However, given the point the story is at and the number of plot threads left loose, it\u2019ll be a while before we say goodbye to Jujutsu Kaisen. What happens in Jujutsu Kaisen after the Shinjuku Showdown Arc? Since the Shinjuku Showdown Arc hasn\u2019t ended yet, it\u2019s difficult to say what\u2019ll happen next. Given the unpredictability of the author, it\u2019s anyone\u2019s guess, really. It\u2019s possible that there won\u2019t be a traditional happy ending to the story. But one thing is for certain: when the story ends, the villain must be vanquished. So, we can at least expect Sukuna\u2019s defeat by the story\u2019s end. Now the biggest question is the survival of Yuji and Megumi. What will happen to the rest of the cast is anybody\u2019s guess. Many major character deaths, like Gojo, Choso, Higuruma, Kashimo, and Kenjaku, occurred in the current arc. Those who are left aren\u2019t safe either. That\u2019s particularly true for Yuta, as he\u2019s fighting Sukuna again after taking over Gojo\u2019s body. Other than the characters, Jujutsu Kaisen also has to resolve the merger issue before its conclusion. Given how important of a plot line this is, many believed the Merger Arc will follow the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. But since it won\u2019t be the case, the manga will have to neat wrap it up. So, we may be looking towards a sizeable number of upcoming chapters in the future. At least, that\u2019s what the manga will need if it doesn\u2019t rush the story. But with Jujutsu Kaisen\u2019s track record, we can safely believe that won\u2019t be the case. For now, Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 262 will be released on June 9, 2024.
