The Jujutsu Kaisen manga series will conclude at the end of September 2024. Shueisha has announced via the franchise’s official social media account that it will publish the final episode of the manga on Monday, September 30, 2024. Given that it is simultaneously released worldwide via MangaPlus and Viz Media, it should appear worldwide shortly after.
Shueisha will publish the 44th issue of the 2024 Weekly Shonen Jump magazine on that day. This issue will contain the 271st episode of Jujutsu Kaisen, which will also mark the end of the manga series. In addition, the company noted that there are five more chapters scheduled for the manga.
The conclusion of Jujutsu Kaisen in 2024 has been expected for a while, though. The series’ author Gege Akutami announced at Jump Festa 2024 in mid-December 2023 that this could have been the title’s last appearance during its active serialization at the annual event.
Here is the original Japanese tweet announcing the manga series’ conclusion on Jujutsu Kaisen‘s official Japanese X account:
Gege Akutami’s Jujutsu Kaisen first appeared in the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in the 14th issue of 2018 published on March 5, 2018. Shueisha has published 27 tankobon volumes of the manga as of July 2024, with the 28th volume scheduled for release on October 4, 2024.
The anime adaptation, which first launched in 2020, has also received the “Most in-demand animated TV show in the World” record in the 2025 Guinness World Records, as it has surpassed even the likes of One Piece and Attack on Titan. In July 2024, TOHO Animation published a teaser trailer for the anime’s third season, which will cover the Culling Game arc.
The 271st episode of Jujutsu Kaisen, which also acts as the final episode of the manga series, will be published on September 30, 2024.
