We're saying a final goodbye to Yuji Itadori, Nobara Kugisaki, and Megumi Fushiguro, as Jujutsu Kaisen is about to publish its final chapter. After the devastating battle against Sukuna, the surviving students try to pick up the pieces, while readers wait with hope for some twist that brings characters back to life. Although Gege Akutami , the series' creator, has hinted at new projects, there is still no confirmation of an official sequel. With the end of Jujutsu Kaisen as one of Weekly Shonen Jump , the impact on the manga and anime universe will be significant.

- Fans are unhappy with the ending of Jujutsu Kaisen
In recent years, we have seen the closure of other major shonen series, such as Demon Slayer , The Promised Neverland and even My Hero Academia approaching its conclusion. With Jujutsu Kaisen ending its run, Weekly Shonen Jump loses one of its best-selling titles since its debut in 2020. However, that doesn't mean the end of the anime is near. Studio MAPPA has already confirmed the third season, and it is likely that Yuji Itadori's story will last at least four more complete seasons to be completed.
A Void in Shonen Jump
The absence of Jujutsu Kaisen will leave a void in the pages of Weekly Shonen Jump, especially considering the end of other series. Although One Piece remains strong, Shueisha will need to find new powers to fill this space. Fortunately, series like Sakamoto Days , Spy x Family , Chainsaw Man , Dandadan and Kagurabachi have already gained great popularity. With only two of these series already adapted into anime, the arrival of the others on TV should further increase their success.
Unsurpassed Jujutsu Kaisen
I say yes, although some series, such as Dragon Ball and One Piece , have lasted decades, the impact of Jujutsu Kaisen, even with just a few years of publication, is undeniable. The story was unpredictable, and Akutami didn't hesitate to remove main characters when necessary, which kept fans on the edge of their seats. No one personified this unpredictability like Satoru Gojo. His popularity in fan polls was unparalleled, and many expect him to return before the end. However, even if Gojo does make a reappearance, knowing that we won't be seeing the character as often anymore is a huge loss.
Still, the world of anime and manga is vast, and new stories and characters will emerge to fill the space left by Jujutsu Kaisen. Do you want to follow the impact of this ending on Weekly Shonen Jump ?
