The ending ofJujutsu Kaisenis officially one of the most disappointing conclusions to a narrative of all time and the manga was notorious for its downfall ever since the Culling Game Arc. Gege Akutami strayed away from the manga’s direction, going from a dark tale to making the story too repetitive and tiring forJujutsu Kaisenfans to keep up with.

With its final volume coming out on 25th December 2024, fans expected a little moreJujutsu Kaisenfrom Gege Akutami after all the criticism. They almost got what they wanted but not nearly close enough to what should’ve been given to them.

Jujutsu Kaisenmight have started out thrilling and entertaining with a unique concept that attracted even non-anime fans. However, Gege’s decisions after the Culling Game Arc made fans question their plans with the manga and the ending gave them no answers. They expected more pages or extra chapters in the final volume but only met with the promise of additional illustrations.

HowJujutsu Kaisenkeeps falling even after its ending

The rising popularity and subsequent downfall ofJujutsu Kaisenneeds to be studied. It was once a candidate to replace one of the Big 3 Anime in the new generation and now it will be remembered for how terrible an ending it was. It’s also going to be nobody but Gege Akutami’s fault in this case. Why they ended the manga withso many unanswered mysteriesand several useless character deaths is beyond the fans’ comprehension.

The fans looked forward to finding out more about Sukuna’s past in the Heian Era. However, Akutami had different plans for him. It was unrealistic for Yuji to offer him another chance at redeeming himself after all the bloodshed he caused. It was clear the King of Curses would be an irredeemable figure, especially since he basically used Yuji to do all of it.

Fromthe announcement of extra illustrationsbeing included in the final volume ofJujutsu Kaisen,it’s become abundantly clear it was the last thing fans wanted fromGege Akutami. They want more pages or an extra chapter of the story that would give the manga a better conclusion or more closure. Akutami should havetaken more time and effort to giveJujutsu Kaisena more concise story that matched its initial energy.

Is ruiningJujutsu Kaisengoing to be Gege Akutami’s legacy?

Gege Akutami is possibly one of the most stubborn mangaka in the industry. They willnever give fans what they wantfrom the series because it is, after all, their manga and no one else’s. They decide what they want to do with their characters’ arcs and it has become even more apparent that this is the only conclusion toJujutsu Kaisen.Even Gojo Satoru’s death won’t be reversed, no matter how overpowered he is or how much fans want it.

No one should’ve expected an extra chapter or pages because an ending is an ending. It’s similar to how people wanted an alternative ending toAttack on Titan. The underwhelming ending ofJujutsu Kaisenwill always dominate any discussion about the series, leaving fans disappointed by Akutami’s writing.
