During Jump Festa 2024, Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami finally revealed his plans for ending the manga. Here’s everything you need to know.

This year’s Jump Festa was an exciting event for Jujutsu Kaisen fans. Not only did the manga reveal a stunning Volume 25 cover featuring Sukuna, but the voice actors performed a few moments from the Culling Game arc and Gojo vs. Sukuna.

The end to Jujutsu Kaisen’s manga has been a topic of discussion since the beginning of 2023. The manga has now entered its final stretch with Gojo vs. Sukuna and — with the beloved sensei gone — the story is closer to its ending than ever.

In January, Gege Akutami shared a message on the Weekly Shonen Jump saying it would be good to end the manga in 2023. However, since Jujutsu Kaisen is still going in full swing, the mangaka revealed his plans for ending the manga.

During Jump Festa 2024, Gege Akutami said, “This is probably the last Jujutsu Kaisen Jump Festa while it is in serialization.” JJK leaker shared the original message along with the translation.

Although the manga is in its final stretch, there are still a lot of unanswered questions. The two main villains have continued to reveal several tricks up their sleeves, cornering the sorcerers every time. Therefore, although the mangaka hasn’t revealed the exact details of the manga’s ending, we can expect some major revelations in 2024.

Based on the story’s current progression, the series still has several months to go before concluding one of the best storylines of new-gen Shonen manga. Earlier in 2023, Gege Akutami casually dropped a bomb by revealing his plans for ending the manga in 2023. However, the story still had lots of loose ends to tie up at the time.

As per MangaPlus, the official synopsis of Jujutsu Kaisen reads, “For some strange reason, Yuji Itadori, despite his insane athleticism, would rather just hang out with the Occult Club. However, [he] soon finds out that the occult is as real as it gets when his fellow club members are attacked! Meanwhile, the mysterious Megumi Fushiguro is tracking down a special-grade cursed object, and his search leads him to Itadori…”
