Shortly after the events of Game of Slaughter , Jujutsu Kaisen entered its last arc and began one of the most anticipated battles by fans. Although the manga is in its final stages, Gege Akutami and his editor stated that there is still a lot to come.
“I don't speak English, but only Japanese and I've never traveled outside of Japan. The fact that my manga was able to cross the ocean and be enjoyed by so many people seems so mysterious to me, but also, I'm so grateful. I will do my best to meet the expectations of fans around the world as I wrap up Jujutsu Kaisen and also work on future manga.”
Akutami Editor's Note:
“The manga will not end anytime soon, but it is in its final phase.”
