Jujutsu Kaisen Is No Longer Exciting, They Say

This article contains spoilers for the "Jujutsu Kaisen" manga. Discretion is advised to the reader.

Despite starting out as the most anticipated battle of "Jujutsu Kaisen," the general opinion on the fight against Sukuna quickly goes downhill and suggests that the series may have lost what made it good in the first place. The climactic battle has been going on for quite some time with the sorcerers throwing everything they can at Sukuna. However, a big problem has become apparent with each new chapter, and it may ruin what could have been the best battle of "Jujutsu Kaisen".

Part of what made Jujutsu Kaisen so popular and entertaining was its originality, unpredictability, and well-choreographed combat. However, since the defeat of Satoru Gojo, the fight against Sukuna has fallen into a predictable pattern and has become repetitive, losing most of its fun and initial charm.

As memes have detailed ad nauseam, the battle is stuck in a never-ending cycle that fans are slowly starting to tire of. Each new opponent that enters the fight against Sukuna follows the same cycle in which they make a confident entrance; the chapter highlights their abilities, they inflict minor damage on Sukuna (who defeats them without breaking a sweat), and a new character takes their place at the end of a cliffhanger only to follow the same pattern in the next chapter.

This cycle of repeated deaths has not only had an impact of weariness on readers, but also of disinterest. Sadly, Gege Akutami has resorted to the same resource as fans, seeing a new character enter the battle, they are already more than ready to see his eventual death. It was precisely for this reason that when the most recent chapter (leaked, evidently) showed Choso's death, the reaction was not one of sadness, but of "I expected it".

Jujutsu Kaisen Is No Longer Exciting, They Say

While fans continue to debate this aspect, the reactions to the new chapter were not long in coming:

"I lost interest in Jujutsu Kaisen for the same reason as Tokyo Revengers, it's become all repetitive and the only new features are character deaths."
"It pains me to say it because I love manga, but I'm so lazy reading Jujutsu Kaisen several chapters ago. I feel like it all became very repetitive and emotionless. Sukuna just sweeps away the character on duty who comes in to fight and that's it, that's it."
"The way Jujutsu Kaisen's current arc is unfolding has me rotten from how long and repetitive it is, and I can't wait for it to end at once."
"The saddest thing about Jujutsu Kaisen is that you can't criticize it because all the fat women in the world come to defend Gege Akutami."
"I don't think Gege doesn't know how to write, but I've found manga to be very repetitive lately. I think Jujutsu Kaisen is good and entertaining, but it has enough details that make me not rate it as highly as many."
"To be honest, it's boring me because it's too repetitive and it's putting random characters in to give them prominence. But if the so-called best jujutsu sorcerer couldn't, any character who comes in who is obviously inferior to him is unlikely to win."
"You'd better put them all to sleep. Keep it up Gege and you'll take Shingeki no Kyojin's place as one of the worst endings in the animanga."
"Hurry up, Gege Akutami to finish your work, which is becoming more and more emasculating. You've already killed most of the entire cast of characters."
"Isn't this damn rubbish of endless fighting over yet?"
"Wow, the eternal fight now adds up to another death. What an innovative Gege!"
"And at the end you hear, 'save us crying hero,' and Itadori jumps back in time when they were all kids and avoids everything that happened."
"Another one, Gege definitely forgot how to make good fights."
"For two years now, repeating the same formula in his mediocre fight, one comes out and another comes in, he dies and the one that follows."
"Not even Kimetsu no Yaiba, even though it also applied the one that everyone dies in the final battle, dared to drag on so long. In a little more than a year, Gotouge-sensei perfectly developed a similar final arc."
"At this rate, the villain is going to eliminate himself when he has no more adversaries left."
