Gege Akutami’s JUJUTSU KAISEN manga officially ended on September 30, 2024. It was serialized for 6-and-a-half-years since March 2018, with the story getting concluded in 30 volumes. Volumes 29 and 30 both released on December 25, 2024, featuring a new 16-page epilogue. VIZ Media licensed the manga in English.
Studio MAPPA animated both seasons of the TV anime and movie for the franchise, while Crunchyroll is streaming them. The Culling Game sequel recently revealed its first visual at Jump Festa ’25, while the franchise also has the compilation movie for the Hidden Inventory/Premature Death arc. The anime sequel has no specified release date, while the movie will hit Japanese theaters on May 30, 2025.
The story follows Yuji Itadori, a boy with insane physical abilities who ends up joining a school for jujutsu sorcerers after an encounter with Megumi Fushiguro, Satoru Gojo and Ryomen Sukuna. To delay getting executed for eating one of Sukuna’s fingers, Yuji takes on the task of finding and eating the remaining 19 fingers of the ‘strongest sorcerer in history’ in order to try and get rid of him. However, things don’t quite go as smoothly as they’d like.
