In recent days, anticipation for the promised “incredible project” of Jujutsu Kaisen has reached its peak, fueled by the hype generated by publisher Shueisha Shonen Jump magazine .

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

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

Additionally, the franchise will release a series of wallpapers on social media and also revealed the cover for the manga's 27th volume. Despite the disappointment with these announcements, the recent release of the manga's next chapter brought a surprise that eased the frustration. The return of a character took 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 treat the information with skepticism. Ultimately, Jujutsu Kaisen has only five chapters left until its conclusion (four, if we count the leaked chapter).
