Jujutsu Kaisen Manga Ending: Everything That Can Happen in the Final Chapters

by

As a die-hard fan of Jujutsu Kaisen who’s been following this captivating manga since its inception, I can confidently say that the anticipation for the climax is as electrifying as Sukuna’s curse energy! With just five chapters left, the battle between Yuuji and Sukuna has reached a fever pitch, keeping us on the edge of our seats.

News that Jujutsu Kaisen might be wrapping up soon has certainly stirred up excitement among fans, along with speculation about what’s next for our main character and the manga as a whole. Although Gege Akutami’s 2019 warning at Jump Festa about the climax still lingers like a ghostly presence, given how the manga is nearing the end of the Shinjuku arc, it remains unclear exactly how things will unfold in the end.

Instead, this is what makes a story captivating as you may have all the pieces but struggle to see the complete picture. Consequently, fan excitement is at an all-time high, especially with the escalating fight between Yuuji and Sukuna. The narrative continues to surprise us with unexpected twists that intensify this battle even further. In line with this suspenseful journey, we’ve gathered 5 potential endings for readers to speculate about:

5. Off-screening Hakari vs. Uraume

With just five chapters left before the Jujutsu Kaisen manga concludes, fans are curious if they’ll get to witness the rumored confrontation between Kinji Hakari and Uraume. Despite numerous battles in the Shinjuku arc, their fight has been surprisingly overlooked, with only a brief sighting when Sukuna unleashed his fire arrow being shown.

Currently, it’s uncertain whether that fight or its victor significantly impacted the overall plot beyond serving as a distraction and adding more combat intricacies. Future chapters may offer clarification, but many fans appear skeptical that this will be the case.

4. Open-ended

Although Akutami has a knack for tying up loose ends in the most surprising ways, there seem to be a lot of questions that need answering. Unfortunately, the pace the manga follows might not have enough time to answer everything. 

For instance, the merger event, crucial for the series of events to unfold, was never depicted, and given the ongoing battle between Sukuna and Yuuji, it remains uncertain if it will ever be shown. While some fans appreciate an open-ended conclusion that encourages interpretation, others might feel let down by this approach.

3. Complete destruction

An alternative scenario could unfold where, despite all efforts, the merger proceeds as a desperate last resort, leading to total devastation. If Akutami chooses this path, it would be particularly intriguing given Yuuji’s pledge to aid people. Watching such an outcome unfold might align perfectly with the manga’s occasional exploration of nihilism. Ultimately, this could become a conflict of perspectives and contrasting philosophies, where personal conviction may prove to be the decisive factor.

2. Megumi’s sacrifice

In the last few chapters, it seems that Megumi Fushiguro is attempting to engage in battle against Sukuna. This could imply that Megumi may be contemplating a self-sacrificing move aimed at defeating Sukuna once and for all. Meanwhile, Yuuji is still working on drawing Sukuna back into his own body. It’s possible that Megumi suspects Yuuji might be planning to end the rule of the Curse King by sacrificing both himself and Sukuna in the process.

To ensure the survival of his friend, Megumi could potentially step in and make crucial decisions on his own. Driven by a shattered psyche and an unyielding spirit of self-sacrifice, he may find himself as the one carrying out the necessary actions.

1. Gege Akutami’s foreshadowing

At the Jump Festa event in 2019, creator Gege Akutami hinted at a possible ending for JJK’s manga, suggesting that among Yuuji, Megumi, Nobara, Satoru Gojo, and potentially others, only one might survive while the rest could perish. Alternatively, there may be three survivors and one fatality.

After much debate among enthusiasts, some believed it would be more favorable for everyone else except Yuuji to survive, rather than him being the lone survivor and unable to spend his final moments with cherished companions, as he had wished.

In light of Nobara’s return and only Satoru being deceased, that outcome is questionable. It’s possible that all characters may survive without Satoru, but it seems improbable. This could be the case, but it depends on whether Akutami chooses to follow through with that narrative direction in the manga.

Even though we won’t know the ultimate conclusion until Jujutsu Kaisen concludes in September, it’s intriguing to ponder what might happen. In the meantime, stay tuned to our site for further developments as the manga approaches its end.
