However, it was revealed that the announcement resulted in several disappointing projects, far removed from what was originally promoted.

Among the announcements was the free digital release of the first 245 chapters of the manga in Japan. While this is an interesting gesture for fans, it's far from justifying the term "amazing." Another project revealed is a countdown video that many believe is related to the manga's ending.

Furthermore, the franchise will release a series of wallpapers on social media and also revealed the cover of volume 27 of the manga. Despite the disappointment with these announcements, the recent release of the next chapter of the manga brought a surprise that eased the frustration. The return of a character caught fans by surprise, largely overshadowing these announcements.

This episode reinforces that whenever an anime or manga franchise promises a "big announcement," it's wise to approach the information with skepticism. Finally, Jujutsu Kaisen has only 5 chapters left until its conclusion (four, if we count the leaked chapter).
