Jujutsu Kaisen manga is returning after a brief hiatus, and the editor has confirmed shocking events in the upcoming chapters.
The Jujutsu Kaisen manga is currently in its final stretch, featuring the battle against the strongest. The situation is going from bad to worse as more and more sorcerers sacrifice themselves to stop the villains. Sukuna’s also victims continue to increase, as the recent chapter features Hiromi Higuruma’s death.
Higuruma’s death is part of an elaborate plan, and it seems the series will reveal it pretty soon. The recent chapter also features a heart-wrenching parallel between Higuruma’s and Nanami’s deaths that forces Yuji to relive the trauma of losing someone important to him.
Nonetheless, the fact remains that Jujutsu Kaisen has been delivering countless shocking events ever since the fight against Sukuna began, and the editor confirms that it’s only going to get more intense.

The host said: “Oh! That’s why I’ve never seen this scene before.” Fukuda responded: “This is a shocking scene.” The host again said: “It’s an extraordinary scene. But I still can’t take my eyes off it.”
The computer screen was blurred in the broadcast, but it’s still sparking several theories among fans. Considering their reaction, it’s highly likely that Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 249 will even be more shocking than Gojo’s death.
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 248 will be released on January 21 at 12am JST. The previous chapter was released on Friday, January 5, instead of Sunday. The chapter was out after Shonen Jump’s Christmas holiday. Nonetheless, the series is once again getting a lot of attention from fans.
Not only did the interview reveal shocking upcoming events in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga, but the editor also revealed that he knows how the story will end. After all, the battle against the strongest is a constant reminder that the series is closer to its ending than ever. Therefore, it isn’t surprising that Gege Akutami has discussed the ending with the editor, who not only approved it but is even looking forward to it.
