Meet the Hilarious New Duo in Shonen Jump That Will Leave You in Stitches!

by

In the latest sensation from Weekly Shonen Jump, “Ichi the Witch“, hearts are being won over by its enthralling plotline, stunning artwork, imaginative world-building, and endearing characters. Authored by Osamu Nishi and illustrated by Shiro Usazaki, this series made its debut in September 2024. The narrative unfolds in a realm where only females possess magical abilities, and no male has ever managed to surmount the exclusive tests provided by enigmatic beings called Majiks. Following a sequence of tumultuous occurrences, Ichi finds himself transforming into the first male witch, marking the start of his adventure as he grapples with his new persona. The story takes a dramatic twist upon the emergence of the World Hater Majik.

In our storyline, we’ve encountered a formidable foe yet, one who gave Desscaras a tough time. The battle between the Mantinel Witches Association and the World Hater Majik concludes with the latter retreating from the field. However, Ichi vows to track down this villain in the future. Matters escalate when a prediction surfaces, suggesting that Ichi will obtain the power of the World Hater Majik, but at the cost of his life. As the narrative unfolds, we’ve embarked on a fresh arc where Ichi and his crew venture to Bakugami, a location foretold to bring him an ally against the World Hater Majik. Clues indicate that Gokuraku might be the ally Ichi is seeking. Yet, their partnership could be too tumultuous for the Witches Association to manage.

Ichi the Witch’s Ichi and Gokuraku Is the Funniest Duo We Have Seen Since Yuji and Todo

In the world of JJK, Ichi the Witch recently presented Gokuraku who shows great promise as a valuable ally for Ichi. Similarly, in JJK, the pairing of Yuji and Todo is highly popular among fans despite limited screen time together. While Megumi also makes an excellent ally for Yuji, Todo’s energy complements Yuji better than Megumi does. During their battles, Todo encourages Yuji to grow stronger, adding depth to their friendship-building dynamic. It was Todo’s infectious enthusiasm that sparked their collaboration and friendship.

In a humorous twist, both Gokuraku and Todo initially appear intimidating and tough, but they reveal comical aspects as they compel Ichi and Yuji, respectively, to work alongside them. While Gokuraku brutally interrogates a Majik for information in Chapter 22, his character surprisingly becomes amusing over time. This mirrors the introduction of Todo, who was portrayed as a brutal character but later proves to have a comedic side after beating Megumi due to their differing tastes in women. Their interactions result in memorable and hilarious exchanges that leave an indelible impression on readers.

In Chapter 23, Gokuraku is astounded by Ichi’s magic skills as a man, leading him to whisk the protagonist away and request instruction on becoming a witch in Chapter 24. During this separation from Desscaras and Kumugi, their relationship deepens. However, chaos ensues in Chapter 26 when they commit an unimaginable act by harming Bakugami, a revered figure seen as a savior. Gokuraku seems to manipulate Ichi into assaulting Bakugami, which is the most heinous crime in their land. Yet, it’s questionable whether his intentions are malicious, given his knowledge of Bakugami’s true identity.

Gokuraku Will Be One of the Most Important Characters in Ichi the Witch

In Chapter 22 of “Ichi the Witch,” when Jikishirone’s letter mentions his companion, the scene swiftly changes to Gokuraku, who is seen tormenting a Majik. This suggests strongly that he could be the one Ichi and her group are searching for. To further solidify this notion, the following chapter reveals that the prophecy directs Ichi’s team to pursue a Majik hating humans. Remarkably, they end up finding Gokuraku in the South Bakugami, the only place where such Majik dwell.

Gokuraku possesses unique abilities, unlike anything we’ve encountered thus far. He has implanted magical gems within himself with the intention of enhancing his power. Moreover, he seems determined to find means to transform into a witch. It appears that Gokuraku’s actions stem not from a desire for power but rather out of desperation. As the story progresses, we can expect more insight into this character. With his current strength and history of defeating Majiks, there’s no question that he already proves to be a valuable ally for Ichi.
