Is Jujutsu Kaisen Ending in 2024? Explained
It’s safe to sayJujutsu Kaisenhas been firmly planted in its final arc for a while now, so it’s no surprise that rumors are swirling about the manga series ending soon. But is Gege Akutami’s work reallyending in 2024?
Will Jujutsu Kaisen End in 2024? Explained
Per a quote from Gege Akutami during Jump Festa 2024,it’s pretty likely that Jujutsu Kaisen is ending in 2024; or at least, the manga is.
During a segment of the event dedicated to Jujutsu Kaisen,commentsmade by the author were presented to the audience which thanked fans for their support and noted that this is likely the “last Jump Festa held while Jujutsu Kaisen is being serialized.”
Said comments were later released via the official Jujutsu Kaisen Twitter account, which further solidified the statements.
【#芥見下々先生から直筆コメント到着！】2024年夏に渋谷ヒカリエで開かれる、芥見下々『呪術廻戦』展。詳細は決定次第、発表いたしますので、楽しみにお待ちください。公式サイト▶https://t.co/fMoHtIB707#呪術廻戦#渋谷で呪術展pic.twitter.com/4yIp3Wjx0F
While this might not seem all that airtight to anyone who remembers the same claims of the series’endbeing made last year, the advanced state of the story this time around does make it feel more realistic. Likewise, Akutami hasn’t made any announcements or comments about extending the series past its intended ending, so it’s more likely that the previous hints at the series reaching its conclusion were an underestimation of how much time they needed to complete the series properly.
As such, we’d recommend taking this latest news seriously unless Akutami revises his statement at a later date. When exactly the series might end, though, is yet to be seen.
Is the Jujutsu Kaisen Anime Ending in 2024? Answered
Fortunately, the same can not be said for theJujutsu Kaisen anime, whichshouldn’t be ending anytime soon.
Though it will be wrapping up one of the series’ girthier arcs once the Shibuya Incident has concluded, it’ll still need to adapt the Culling Game arc and other storylines that occur after that. This means the series still has plenty of material to adapt its way through, and that the series isn’t likely to go anywhere in the meantime.
However, it is rather likely that the series won’t see regular seasonal releases if MAPPA intends to uphold its current benchmark of quality. The series’animatorshave been outspoken about the brutal working conditions they had to put up with, to the point that some even left the studio en masse following a horrible stretch of bad working conditions that spanned both Jujutsu Kaisen 0 and Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2.
While it’s unclear whether or not this led MAPPA toward rethinking how tight they’ll keep the release windows for episodes and seasons, it’s safe to say the exodus of their employees won’t make it easy for them to reliably animate the show’s next cour.
