by

Over the past week, fans of Jujutsu Kaisen have been on an exciting roller coaster ride! Not only did information about Season 3 of JJK surface, along with news of a forthcoming movie, but it was also disclosed that Gege Akutami, the author, is coming back with a fresh manga series.

Gege is working on a new manga series called “Jujutsu Kaisen 3: Mojuro”, which was initially thought to be an entirely separate series. However, Gege has clarified that this new manga is actually a sequel to the popular series Jujutsu Kaisen. Today, the full title of the manga was disclosed as “Jujutsu Kaisen 3: Mojuro”. Fans are incredibly enthusiastic about this news and Gege has shared a lengthy message with them, detailing his plans for this new series and its expected duration.

Jujutsu Kaisen Ended in 2024, But It Now Has a New Sequel

  • Jujutsu Kaisen 3: Mojuro Is The New Manga
  • Dropping September 7, 2025

The popular manga series “Jujutsu Kaisen” concluded abruptly in the year 2024. It’s been about a year since then, and given the abrupt ending, fans were understandably displeased. However, news of Gege’s return with a new installment titled “Jujutsu Kaisen 3: Mojuro” has ignited excitement among fans, who have high hopes for what’s to come.

As an observer, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news about the manga. The creator himself, Gege, has confirmed in a recent update that this manga will span across three volumes and is expected to last approximately six months. This implies that we might be looking at over 30 chapters for this sequel, which is truly monumental!

Hey there! It’s me, Akutami. It’s been a while since we last spoke. As I was working on Jujutsu Kaisen, various offers for spinoffs written by others came my way. However, given the nature of manga, where things can quickly spiral out of control, I had reservations about the title spreading beyond my capacity to manage. So, I turned down those offers at the time. But when this specific opportunity presented itself, and I contemplated how it might broaden the main story, explore its background more deeply, or even leap across eras altogether, I recognized that if it were developed alongside the main series, it could pave the way for numerous other projects. This realization ignited the birth of ‘Mojuro,’ which initially had no defined concept whatsoever. After countless planning sessions, it finally took shape. This new series will be a short-term project, roughly half a year in duration, and should be compiled into approximately 3 volumes.

Gege Akutami praises Yuji Iwasaki-sensei, an incredibly gifted artist whose drawings are simply outstanding. They’re worth marveling at! I’d be thrilled if you could appreciate Mojuro as a gateway to the captivating realm of jujutsu.

The initial installment of “Jujutsu Kaisen 3” will debut in Weekly Shonen Jump this coming Sunday, September 7, 2025. Readers are eager to see what Gege has created, with excitement escalating since the first chapter is an extended one – approximately 54 pages, nearly triple the typical chapter length. Fans will be thrilled to reencounter characters like Yuji, Nobara, and Megumi, who have grown older over time.
