Jujutsu Kaisen has officially concluded, and its creator, Gege Akutami, has shared his thoughts on the finale. After six years, the popular manga series has completed its 271st chapter, bringing to a close one of Shueisha’s most successful titles.
Akutami expressed his gratitude to fans in a note, thanking them for their support and promising to continue working on future projects. Jujutsu Kaisen first debuted in 2018, and over time, it has become one of the best-selling manga series for Shueisha. The story follows a young boy named Yuji Itadori who finds himself entangled in a world of curses.
Throughout the series, Yuji and his friends face countless challenges, including the tragic loss of their mentor Gojo. The final chapter gave fans a sense of closure, reuniting Yuji with her friends Megumi and Nobara after many conflicts. The reunion felt natural, leading to a lighter, more peaceful conclusion for the characters.
In the note published by Shueisha, Akutami addressed the ending and hinted at future projects, asking fans to continue supporting him in his next endeavors. The message was also accompanied by a new illustration by Yuji Itadori, showing the protagonist with a smile on his face despite the hardships he faces. The artwork symbolizes the optimism that Yuji has shown throughout the series, even in the most difficult times.
The success of Jujutsu Kaisen cannot be underestimated. It reached a significant milestone with over 100 million copies in circulation, cementing its place among the best-selling manga of all time. The series has come a long way since its early days, and Akutami’s career is following a similar trajectory. After debuting as a professional manga artist in 2014, Akutami quickly gained recognition and Jujutsu Kaisen became his breakthrough hit.
While the conclusion of Jujutsu Kaisen marks the end of an era for Akutami, it’s clear that the creator has much more to offer. Although no details have been revealed about his next project, fans are eager to see what Akutami will work on next. For now, the producer is likely to take a well-deserved break, but his note shows that he is far from over with his career. Fans can expect the return of Akutami with new stories in the future.
