Jujutsu Kaisen Creator Announces Manga’s Final Arc

Jujutsu Kaisen Creator Announces Manga's Final Arc

As a dedicated gamer and avid manga reader, I’m thrilled to my core about the latest developments in Jujutsu Kaisen. This series has been a rollercoaster ride of emotions since its inception, but now it feels like we’re reaching the climax. The Shinjuku Showdown arc is heating up, and the recent announcement that it will be the final arc has me on the edge of my seat.


Jujutsu Kaisen is currently generating a lot of buzz, with fans claiming that the series has never been more exhilarating than it is now. Gege Akutami initiated this captivating supernatural tale several years ago, and the latest Shinjuku Showdown arc has left everyone on edge. The climax of Jujutsu Kaisen seems imminent, which might be why the manga recently announced its final story arc.

In a recent development, Akutami personally announced during the Jujutsu Kaisen Exhibition in Japan this month that the manga’s climax will unfold in the Shinjuku Showdown storyline. This revelation came as a surprise to fans, who had the opportunity to attend an extended interview with the creator. During the Q&A session, Akutami dropped several intriguing hints about the upcoming Culling Game arc.

Akutami viewed the Culling Game arc as a crucial stepping stone leading us to the Shinjuku Showdown arc. While I had already planned certain elements, such as character developments and the colony segments, I ensured each colony stood distinctly in its own volume. My focus was on making each one engaging and captivating, resulting in a series reminiscent of interconnected albums. (A conversation with my editor about this approach also took place.)

Certainly, fans were eager to dissect the interview more deeply. Translators pointed out that Akutami frequently employs the use of “?” which typically denotes a segment or part of something. In the realm of manga, this symbol often signifies an arc. Given that Akutami may consider the Shinjuku Showdown arc to be the last one in Jujutsu Kaisen, it makes perfect sense for the story to reach its climax. Our protagonists have a limited amount of time to vanquish Sukuna, and the uncertainty surrounding whether or not the King of Curses can be defeated adds to the intrigue.

If you’d like to get brought up to speed with everything related to Jujutsu Kaisen, here is a summary of its manga storyline for your convenience:

Yuji Itadori, with his extraordinary athletic abilities, preferred to spend his time with the Occult Club instead of engaging in more physically demanding activities. However, this preference was put to the test when club members were assaulted. Unbeknownst to Itadori, the occult world was no figment of imagination but a harsh reality. Meanwhile, Megumi Fushiguro, a mystery in himself, pursued a high-ranking cursed artifact. His investigation eventually brought him face to face with Itadori.
