That wasn't even in shibuya thats after the kyoto event arc its like 210 issues back
Lmao that last chapter is…
I could see things ending this way but it feels unearned
That Sukuna ending is LMAO
Ngl tho, one thing that has made me a bit hesitant to pick up the manga is the amount of manga readers that s*** on the culling games and the final arc
Personally I’d wait esp with official translations being kinda poor. The anime will likely improve on the manga. Not to say the manga bad but the author obviously ran out of steam near the end and set up things the anime will likely flesh out more satisfyingly.
Overall JJK was a fun ride. Ending kinda is what it is but I think the series lived up to the bar it set for a lot of its fights. I think the Sukuna gauntlet will play much better as a whole when its animated but I think it was a great finish for all the fights that did come before it. The way Gege handled Yuji's domain still feels lackluster though. That deserved to be iterated on further to stick the landing Gege chose to cap off the series.
Hard pressed to label the whole series as trash off the last two arcs. Despite how AOT rounded its ideas off by the end, its highs still justified its place as an exceptional shonen. I believe the same for JJK. For all it left on the table, Gege managed to maintain the spectacle until the very end. Completely understand the criticisms people are levying at this though.
We don't need reactions to the most important death in the series? Yuji gave more of a reaction to f\*\*\*ing junpei dying and his weird curse brothers then his own teacher its a very fair criticism
No you dont its perfectly in character imo
Like let me explain why I think its good that way even tho I have many other issues with the ending.
Gojo is secluded by his ability and being the strongest but instead of becoming a sukuna he wanted to teach others to be independent and strong. Hes the guy that unlocks a new ability even tho riku just died and is hyped af about it. He loves fighting and is crazy about Jujutsu. And clearly doesnt see himself as a good guy. Everybody around him just think he weird and characterize him as "the strongest". But his teachings helping his students beat sukuna is what he dedicated his life to. And thats why i think him saying that they should move on now is perfectly in character and Yuji taking over the torch and saving another weirdo outcast is exactly what Gojo been doing.
Its a beautiful throwback to this imo
Stuff online once again insanity incited by some outrage clickbait anime youtubers.
Seeing people now praise geges old abusive editor is like people justifying Shelley Duvall abuse on set by Kubrick for the Shining.
Such a damn shame how people always get so personal even when you dislike the ending or the route the manga took its very nasty right now. Mangaka aint a job you do for money. People are acting like Gege wanted to write an ending that pisses them off on purpose. The story he spend years making in the tightest schedule just to entertain some people and for the love of the craft.

People are inconsiderate, entitled a******s . But as soon as a mangaka gets sick then it’s worry and concern . People don’t care about empathy until it’s too late
I feel like every ending anime fans will call bad
Only ones free from this are older ones due to nostalgia lol
Honestly My Hero had a better fuller ending idk. It felt less rushed and more like a natural conclusion.
Maybe it helped that we were knew it was the last arc rather than getting a Bleach style “5 chapters and it’s over” announcement in the middle of the last fight
Idk man I’m very underwhelmed to say the least
I gotta sit on it for a while and maybe I’ll feel differently when I rewatch it via anime but just meh rn

!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c8dNMX5ztY&ab_channel=AvidThis message can still get across with having reactions to his death so im really not getting what your saying. That one todo line really made yall think we don't need reactions to important characters dying
The ending was a good one, but honestly, there’s like 10-20 chaps that should’ve just been completely cut because the story built went nowhere. It’s fine, but to neglect some big plot points is kinda…. Strange

Im just saying why I think the ending chapter is very good and the conclusion to Gojos character too. If youre not speaking about that I dunno why we are arguing. I dont think "oh this page isnt there" is a fair critique. And ive never heard something like this being said about any other manga
And honestly its not that crazy not having a panel of someone crying about Gojo. Like what does that even add. We know theyre sad about the death such a minor complaint man cmon

fully agree. I think around the Military invasion and Yuki fight gege was not sure wether he wanted to make the story 40 chapters longer or not. And ultimately decided on major cuts.
Final page count list
very cool.
the fact that he only said stuff like this to yuji is highly disappointing. He needed stuff like this with the whole cast before he went out
Especially Yuta. He was probably pissed that he Yuta will surpass him.

Heavy weekly anticipation mixed with theories and general hype over these popular manga usually means no matter what the author does the endings will never be well received, because they simply cannot match the impossibly high expectations set by fans. There's a reason lesser followed manga and older manga have better received endings, there was no mass following, no theories on even the smallest details and no weekly hype

Exactly my thoughts too

I think a better ending would've been his students remembering him for his human aspects rather then him dying thinking he's a monster when he's not and the story not acknowledging that at all. And i don't need panels of the cast ugly one piece crying but give us SOMETHING. Someone in the thread said just make a bench or something honoring him and that's literally all i needed. you dont see these complaints in other manga because in any other manga if an important character dies we get actual reactions
I’m not too hung up on the ending but one question I have is why tell the story i get why people feel flaccid by the ending wit gojo and while have quibbles about his story i kinda feel he factored in too much to the story and in reality he is not the most interesting character. His discussion with sukuna on what it means to be the strongest feels like a fine b story but I don’t really know what other coherent theses Gege was serving up near the end. if my reading comprehension is poor and I’m missing what the point of this story I’m open to enlightenment lol.
