Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Akutami slammed by fans for killing beloved character
CrunchyrollThe latest spoilers confirm the death of a beloved character, which hasn’t sat well with Jujutsu Kaisen fans, who’ve barraged Gege Akutami with hate comments.
Jujutsu Kaisen has wrapped up its biggest fight ever, the battle of the strongest. The strongest sorcerer alive and the King of Curses were evenly matched. Neither side showed signs of backing down. The fight involving Gojo and Sukuna was foreshadowed since the beginning of the series, so one can only imagine the excitement of fans when it came out.
Chapter 235 ends with Gojo’s apparent victory, and fans rejoiced for almost two weeks. Although many worried about Gojo’s fate, the chapter ends with Kusabae declaring Gojo’s victory. The strongest sorcerer alive blew up Shinjuku to take down Mahoraga and Sukuna together.
However, just as fans thought the battle ended with their favorite character’s victory, the author drops a huge bomb in the upcoming chapter. After the leaks, fans found out their favorite character died a tragic death. Hence, Gege Akutami can’t escape the fate of being widely criticized by Jujutsu Kaisen fans across the world.
Gege Akutami trends as Jujutsu Kaisen fans criticize major death
CrunchyrollTwitter/X is flooded with hate comments toward the JJK mangaka. Fans are badly criticizing his work after witnessing the gruesome death of their beloved character. Killing off fan-favorite characters is nothing new to Gege. However, this time around, the battle was incredibly hyped.
Gojo winning against Sukuna was not just a matter of personal vendetta, but the future of the Jujutsu world rested on his shoulders. However, his death came as too much of a shock after chapter 235 when fans were widely celebrating Gojo’s victory.
It was a given that the upcoming chapter would be something interesting. Chapter 236 was also delayed as per Gege’s schedule. Therefore, no one expected to see Satoru Gojo cut in half as soon as the highly anticipated chapter arrived.
Many criticize how poorly he executed the death of such an important character. After all, Gojo’s influence in the series can never be denied. It’s not a secret among Jujutsu Kaisen fans that Gege truly despises their beloved Sensei. Therefore, his death deals them a heavy blow.
Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 236 will be officially released on September 24. You can read the spoilers here.
