Jujutsu Kaisen Features Stunning Gojo, Nanami, and Choso Illustrations in Morning Newspapers

To commemorate the simultaneous release of JUJUTSU KAISEN volumes 29 and 30 on December 28, new illustrations of Satoru Gojo, Kento Nanami and Choso are being distributed in Japan’s national morning newspapers. Three major newspapers are featuring different characters:

• Yomiuri Shimbun: Satoru Gojo
• Asahi Shimbun: Kento Nanami
• Mainichi Shimbun: Choso

The creator of JUJUTSU KAISEN, Gege Akutami, drew the new illustrations for the morning newspapers illustrations. You can see each of them below.

In addition, a newspaper ad with a different illustration will appear in the morning edition of another national newspaper on the day of the volumes’ release date, December 25. Details about the publication and visual will be kept a mystery until it releases.

Gege Akutami’s JUJUTSU KAISEN manga officially ended on September 30, 2024. It was serialized for 6-and-a-half-years since March 2018, with the story getting concluded in 30 volumes. Volumes 29 and 30 will both release on Wednesday, December 25.

The Culling Game sequel recently revealed its first visual, while the franchise also has the compilation movie for the Hidden Inventory/Premature Death arc.

Studio MAPPA animated both seasons of the TV anime and movie for the franchise, while Crunchyroll is streaming them. The story follows Yuji Itadori, a boy with insane physical abilities who ends up joining a school for jujutsu sorcerers after an encounter with Megumi Fushiguro, Satoru Gojo and Sukuna Ryomen. To delay getting executed for eating one of Sukuna’s fingers, Yuji takes on the task of finding and eating the remaining 19 fingers of the ‘strongest sorcerer in history’ in order to try and get rid of him. However, things don’t quite go as smoothly as they’d like.
