Akutami has confirmed plans to continue creating manga, much to the excitement of fans who are eager to see his future works. While there were no explicit promises for a Jujutsu Kaisen Part 2, it’s likely he may embark on a new series entirely.
A popular JJK account, Myamura, also shared the news on Twitter/X. A fan commented, “Gege is actually a genius; the fact JJK is his first manga is impressive. His writing isn’t perfect, but he has crafted enjoyable characters and stories. His potential for the future is vast.”
Another fan humorously added, “Greg, you seem like a cool guy, but please, for the love of god, write a better ending next time.”
Yet another follower remarked, “Gege’s writing is exceptional. The ‘ending’ doesn’t come off as a true conclusion but rather a setup for what’s next. It feels like what actually ended was Sukuna’s story, which feels very complete.”
