Gege Akutami’s Jujutsu Kaisen Finale Plans Leave Fans Puzzled
During the Heian Era, Sukuna was the most feared sorcerer, known for killing many for amusement and spreading terror for centuries. Fast forward to Chapter 268, Yuji triumphs over the King of Curses.
At last, our beloved protagonist saves his best friend, Megumi Fushiguro, whose survival once seemed uncertain. However, Itadori only managed to kill the King of Curses, thanks to the surprising assistance of Nobara Kugisaki.
Uraume also disclosed that Sukuna was defeated not due to Yuji’s strength, but because he was reincarnated in a weaker body. With Uraume’s claims, Akutami has confirmed that Sukuna is the strongest character in the entire JJK series even after dying at the hands of Yuji.
A few weeks back, JJK fans feared a rushed ending; now they’re concerned about how Gege will navigate the remaining chapters after Sukuna’s conclusion.
Jujutsu Kaisen can be streamed on Crunchyroll, whereas the manga can be read on Viz Media.
