Okay, Jujutsu Kaisen fanatics! The anime is amazing, right? But let's be real, sometimes waiting for new episodes feels like waiting for Gojo to finally get serious (which, let's face it, is rare!). So, you're itching for more and thinking about diving into the manga. Smart move!
Picking Up Where the Anime Ends: Shibuya Incident Aftermath
The anime's second season wraps up the absolutely bonkers Shibuya Incident. It's a wild ride, a rollercoaster of emotions, and leaves you utterly speechless. Seriously, try describing it to someone who hasn't seen it – good luck!
Think of it this way: the anime season two ends after all the chaos. After Gojo becomes... unavailable. After the baddies reveal their hand. After you've probably screamed at your screen a few times.
So, where does that leave you in the manga? You'll want to start around chapter 137. Yes, 137! Prepare yourself, because the fallout from Shibuya is massive.
Welcome to the Culling Game!
Basically, everything you thought you knew? Forget it! Things get even crazier (if that's even possible). The stage is set for the Culling Game, a massive, deadly competition designed to optimize cursed energy.
Imagine it as the most brutal version of Squid Game, but with curses and jujutsu sorcerers. The stakes are unbelievably high, and literally anything can happen. Characters you love are thrown into insane situations.
The Culling Game is a major arc in the manga, and it's where you'll be spending your time if you pick up where the anime leaves off. Get ready to say goodbye to sleep!
What to Expect (Spoiler-Free-ish)
From chapter 137 onward, you will see new characters enter the scene. You'll also see existing characters pushed to their absolute limits. Many of our favorite characters have to level up fast.
Expect epic battles. Expect mind-blowing plot twists. And, most importantly, expect to be utterly hooked! Gege Akutami, the author, is a master of keeping you on the edge of your seat.
Some characters we all care for also go on to improve on their skills. Yuji has to level up so he can keep up with the threats. And Megumi has no choice to get better, but to get stronger.
Why Make the Jump to Manga?
Patience is a virtue, sure. But who has patience when it comes to Jujutsu Kaisen?! The manga allows you to experience the story at your own pace.
Plus, you can avoid all those pesky spoilers floating around the internet. Seriously, the internet is a minefield of JJK spoilers. Tread carefully!
Finally, reading the manga gives you a deeper appreciation for Akutami's storytelling. You'll catch details you might miss in the anime, and you can form your own interpretations of events.
So, grab your copy of the manga starting at chapter 137. Brace yourself for the Culling Game. Get ready to be amazed all over again!
