Jujutsu Kaisen Manga Leakers Might Face Serious Consequences

This is getting out of control.

Summary:

  • Leaks have been a major issue in the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom.
  • Two foreigners have been arrested in Japan for leaking manga chapters.
  • Leakers are scared, and other fans have mixed feelings about this situation.

Jujutsu Kaisen manga leaks have been a thing for quite some time. Every time a new chapter is on its way, we can see numerous screenshots, drafts and photos of the upcoming chapter. Basically, the story points are always known and discussed days before the official release.

It started getting on so many fans’ nerves long ago, but this time the situation might become even more serious than just upsetting a good number of manga readers. The leakers could face legal consequences.

NHK News Web shared the information about two foreigners, who were arrested in Japan on February 4, 2024 for sharing Weekly Shounen Jump manga panels before their official release. This news is especially frightening for manga leakers, who have been sharing chapters of such series as Jujutsu Kaisen or One Piece beforehand.

It also forced the leakers to change their posting schedule and move the leaks to the next day to avoid persecution or any other legal actions. Some famous JJK leakers have changed their account names and decided to keep a low profile for a while.

Fans’ reaction

This news divided the Jujutsu Kaisen fanbase into two teams: one is scared and furious and one is feeling a jubilant mixture of schadenfreude and retribution.

The leaks have been a major problem in the fandom for some time, and fans have previously complained about them. The thing is that a lot of people started reading the manga exactly to avoid spoilers, but manga leaks rendered this decision meaningless: readers keep getting spoiled every time.

Still, the leaks have also become an inseparable part of the Jujutsu Kaisen experience, and it’s been fun to try to predict where things are going from a couple of frames. It made the conversation and debates go on, and, let’s be honest, just added to the feeling of excitement for so many fans.

It’s still unclear how serious the leaker situation is and if more people are in danger of getting arrested, but for now the most obvious and clever thing is to lie low and stop with the leaks for some time.

It will even be curious to see how the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom will handle this new development. What if they realize that leaks have been the enemy the entire time
