The popular manga “ Jujutsu
Kaisen ”, created by Gege Akutami, is approaching its conclusion after
a successful serialization of more than six years. As
officially revealed in a recent broadcast, the series will end in five
more chapters, concluding with Chapter 271 next Monday, September 30, 2024 (although
it will be leaked before). This announcement marks the end of one of the most
influential works of the last decade in the world of manga.
“Jujutsu Kaisen” began serialization in
March 2018 and quickly became a phenomenon, attracting millions of fans around
the world. With its imminent end, the series follows in
the footsteps of “My Hero Academia,” which also concluded this month, closing a
significant chapter for Weekly Shonen Jump magazine, which has seen how both
series defined a generation.
Both works have reached the astonishing
figure of more than 100 million copies sold, establishing themselves as some of
the most successful manga of all time. In fact, “Jujutsu
Kaisen” has been one of the most popular Shonen Jump titles for several years,
even surpassing “One Piece” in average sales according to Oricon data released
in May of this year, with a sales ratio from 2 to 1.
The impact of “Jujutsu Kaisen” has transcended the
pages of manga, inspiring video games, a wide range of products and being
recognized as the most 'in-demand' television series of any medium in
2023. The series has left an indelible mark on culture popular, and its
end will mark the closing of an era for many of its followers.
For those who follow the story through
the anime, you can look forward to the sequel to the second season of “Jujutsu
Kaisen,” which was announced late last year. Meanwhile,
manga fans are preparing to say goodbye to a series that has captured the
imagination of readers around the world and that will undoubtedly leave Weekly
Shonen Jump in trouble.
