When Gege Akutami’s Jujutsu Kaisen first came out in 2018, fans instantly fell in love with the series because it introduced a band of negative characters who, despite their terrifying motives and ambitions, had a certain charm to them. Although every anime or manga series has at least one antagonist that becomes a fan favorite, Jujutsu Kaisen still stands out.
Sukuna and Mahito in Jujutsu Kaisen
This was because other anime and manga series usually have a sympathetic or sad background story for the antagonist to make fans understand the feelings and reasoning behind their actions in the storyline. Akutami once revealed that they don’t like the idea of using sympathy for villains.
They pointed out that the simple explanation of the collision between the convictions of the protagonist and the antagonist is enough to fuel the rage of characters like Sukuna and make them cold-hearted villains who want to destroy the world.

There have been many translation errors throughout the course of Jujutsu Kaisen. Whether it is in the manga or the anime, subtitles, and official translations mistake certain words for the most bizarre counterparts. This leads to blunders that further tamper with the lore. One such example was during the epic battle between Mahoraga and Sukuna during the second season.

Not only did the subtitles mess up Mahoraga’s name, but they also made a grave error with a much-awaited moment- the King of Curses’ domain expansion. The name provided by Gege Akutami holds strong as Malevolent Shrine. However, Crunchyroll mistakenly made it into Malevolent Kitchen. What then became a joke also led to a possible theory, one that may not be as far-fetched as it sounds.
Sukuna’s Three Big Cooking Skills
Sukuna’s ‘Malevolent Kitchen’ is perhaps the most common joke made about a mistake.

One of the reasons why Death Note is one of the biggest anime series even after so long is the fact that, since the beginning, the series has introduced a new twist or turn in every episode. The mysterious psychological thriller, with the addition of supernatural entities, makes it one of the most successful pioneers of the anime industry.

The main credit for this goes to the writer of the series, Tsugumi Ohba, and the illustrator, Takeshi Obata. The combined effort of the two is the reason why Death Note is so great.

"Jujutsu Kaisen" is not just a popular anime, it is Guinness World Records' most in-demand anime series in the world, and it's easy to see why. The anime adaptation of Gege Akutami's manga of the same name is full of memorable characters, a great sense of humor, stunning horror-inspired imagery, and some phenomenal action and animation by Studio Mappa. It doesn't hurt that the first season had one of the best opening sequences and theme songs of the past decade, as well as a fantastic and eclectic soundtrack that even takes inspiration from Billie Eilish.
The show takes place in a world of sorcerers and Curses, spirits caused by negative emotions that haunt humanity. The main story follows Yuji, who joins a secret organization of Jujutsu Sorcerers after he inadvertently becomes the host of the world's most powerful Curse, named Sukuna.
Though at first glance this looks like a straightforward show to watch,...

Gege Akutami’s approach toward storytelling has been one that managed to turn heads ever since Jujutsu Kaisen first started serializing. There has always been a range provided in the manga as well as the anime, one that brings it both praise and criticism. In the way the story is written, there is a flow that can disappoint yet excite fans at the same time.

Such is the case with pacing, character understanding, and the direction in which the story is going. For Jujutsu Kaisen, the tail was already set in stone before it began. Itadori’s fate was decided and with it, everything else that came with his journey. Akutami’s editor noticed this too, loving the way the story blends two different groups together.

Mappa Studios, known for some of the biggest anime series of recent years like Jujutsu Kaisen, Vinland Saga, Chainsaw Man, Hells Paradise, Attack on Titan, etc., has earned the praise of another prominent Japanese animation studio, Studio Pierrot.

It’s been a few weeks since readers of Jujutsu Kaisen experienced a character’s death. So, of course, Gege Akutami felt like the manga was getting dry and let Sukuna use a ‘Flame’ technique. Rest assured, Sukuna will either severely hurt or kill someone in chapter 259 with his flames.
It’s time for another person to die; this time, the sword of Gege’s whim is pointing toward Takuma Ino. Yes, Ino is a mere secondary character, but he carries Nanami’s blunt sword which has easily put him in the line of execution.

By launching the new sub-brand, Studio Pierrot, known for long-running series like Naruto and Bleach, is making a strategic shift, acknowledging the evolving anime landscape and the growing demand for high-quality, shorter-season anime, a trend Pierrot hasn’t always embraced as effectively as other studios.
Tominaga revealed that while the studio excels at long-term productions, it hasn’t always kept pace with the trend of shorter, impactful series like Jujutsu Kaisen. To adapt to this changing audience preference Pierrot Films will focus on producing such projects, starting with the highly anticipated Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War.

This mystery drama takes place during the reign of Henry VIII and features none other than Thomas Cromwell (Sean Bean) investigating a murder.

As the seasons progressed, the animation got better, and its popularity also increased. Ufotable did a great job with the animation, and fans are expecting more from them in the next season, which will take it one step toward the end.
While Ufotable has revolutionized the Japanese animation industry, Mappa seems to have done the opposite. The Mappa controversy was a massive issue in late 2023. The animation studio pressurized their employees to work for longer. With such problems, the animation should pay attention to what Demon Slayer producer had to say regarding the condition of animators.

Dragon Ball characters, be they protagonists or antagonists, are known to be some of the strongest characters in the anime and manga universe. One such character is Beerus, the God of Destruction of Universe 7. Although he is now a supporting character in Dragon Ball Super, he was introduced as one of the strongest villains Akira Toriyama’s universe has ever seen.

There are very few characters in the anime and manga world who can be compared to the extremely dangerous strength of the God of Destruction.

Fans of Gege Akutami’s Jujutsu Kaisen shared a post on X(Formerly Twitter) that pointed out that the antagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen, Sukuna, might be stronger than Beerus.

In an interview during the release of the second season of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, Tite Kubo, the creator of the series, made a grave mistake. He revealed some important information about the Bleach anime series, after which, Shueisha, the Japanese publishing company, was forced to cut an entire part of his interview.
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War
According to reports, Kubo shared some exclusive details about the captain of the 13th division of the Gotei 13, Jūshirō Ukitake, and his connection to Hell in the Bleach narrative. Although the connection between the two has already been discussed in the manga, Kubo must have revealed something extremely intriguing for Shueisha to take such a step.

The leaks for the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 258 are finally out in Japan and we get to know what happens in the thrilling upcoming chapter of Gege Akutami’s popular manga series. The chapter that debuted last week provided us with a scoop related to Itadori’s family and his relationship with Sukuna, but that was more or less it, as the battle did not really progress further. This week’s chapter has managed to beat even that, as basically, nothing happens here save for a few new moves by Itadori and Sukuna, although an escalation seems to be imminent based on the final scene.
This chapter, like many before it, is another continuation of Akutami’s fight-based chapters in which nothing much happens, really. The characters keep exchanging some moves, we get one or two explanations and flashback scenes, and the chapter ends with a cliffhanger that foreshadows a...
