On August 5, 2024, My Hero Academia came to a close, while Jujutsu Kaisen revealed that it will conclude in September with the release of five additional chapters after chapter 266.
Despite the expectations of Jujutsu Kaisen fans for the series to run until early 2025, the recent announcement of its impending conclusion in the next few chapters has caused the entire fandom to contemplate the possible influence of Horikoshi on Gege’s decision. Some fans have begun to speculate that Gege may have chosen to end the manga due to Horikoshi.
Please be aware that this article contains spoilers for both the My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen series.
My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen Conclude Within the Same Timeframe
Despite its ending on August 5, 2024 with the publication of chapter 430, My Hero Academia continued to spark discussion among fans. While some were divided by the conclusion, others took to social media to voice their concerns about unresolved plotlines, including the quirk singularity theory and others that were neglected.
Despite the fact that Jujutsu Kaisen is set to conclude in the next five chapters, the fandom is becoming increasingly agitated due to the multitude of plotlines that Gege Akutami has yet to address.
Gege Akutami and Horikoshi have displayed their camaraderie through a series of author comments in their respective manga. As Gege’s manga comes to an unexpected conclusion mere weeks after the end of My Hero Academia, enthusiasts are wondering about the extent of Horikoshi’s potential impact on Gege’s decision.
Fan Reactions to the Situation
Some fans have theorized that Gege’s unexpected announcement could be linked to Horikoshi’s decision to conclude the My Hero Academia manga. Others have suggested that Gege purposely timed the ending of Jujutsu Kaisen to coincide with Horikoshi’s series, potentially causing disruption in Jump magazines as two highly popular series would be ending simultaneously.
On the other hand, there are those who have stated that Gege was unable to handle being featured in a magazine without Horikoshi.
“Horikoshi announced he was ending MHA and Gege yelled with all his might “DON’T LEAVE MEEEEEEEE”,”one fan said.
“Gege and Horikoshi wrapping up within a month of each other knowing they bout to leave Jump scrambling,”another fan wrote.
“Gege couldn’t stand being in the magazine without Hori for more than two months,”one fan wrote.
It has been noted by Netizens that the current situation in Jujutsu Kaisen is leading to a hurried conclusion, reminiscent of the rushed ending in Horikoshi’s manga.
It has been speculated by numerous internet users that Horikoshi and Gege may collaborate on a new project once Gege finishes Jujutsu Kaisen. There has also been discussion about the potential for a major reveal in Jujutsu Kaisen this week.
“Horikoshi and gege competing in who can make the most rushed manga ending competition,”another fan said.
“Horikoshi and gege really just two besties who said “i’ll put my two weeks in if you do” and i think that’s beautiful,”a fan wrote.
“Gege and Horikoshi might just start writing My Jujutsu Academia, especially since we have a JJK announcement still remaining,”one fan said.
Despite fans’ expectations for a sequel, Horikoshi’s series concluded with 430 chapters and multiple movies. However, there has been no announcement for a sequel yet. Similarly, Jujutsu Kaisen is set to end with chapter 271, leaving fans in the dark about its future direction.
