Regarding the finale, Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami shares, “The story will end in 5 more chapters. I am only able to end the story in the way I wanted thanks to the support and cooperation of all my readers. Thank you!! I am working hard to create a final chapter that will (probably) satisfy as many people as possible who have supported Jujutsu Kaisen. So everyone!! Please bear with me!!”
Fans are shocked and have mixed reactions over the ending. “Bro Gege hates us because how you gonna wrap everything up in five chapters. Tengen backstory? Sukuna backstory? Bruh… Kenjaku did all that planning for what,” questions one fan.

Another writes, “Ruined potentially the best thing ever atm, rushed an ending, could have had another 50 chapters easily.”
“All those foreshadowing is for nothing now. Completely ruined characters like Kenjaku, The merger should have happened then what’s the point of the entire Culling Games? Gege completely ruined it. So JJK is all about teaching sukuna what is love,” a third one adds.
