What is even happening?
Manga spoilers ahead!
Summary:
- A special Jujutsu Kaisen video launched several hours ago.
- It features still images of Jujutsu Kaisen characters in different settings.
- Fans think there might be a hidden meaning behind it.
The official Jump YouTube channel posted a special video commemorating the release of Jujutsu Kaisen manga Volume 26. The premiere started on April 3, and the video has been streaming for several hours, so fans can watch it while waiting for the official release of the volume.
There isn’t anything special or exciting about the video for now, since it’s just some stills featuring Jujutsu Kaisen characters with the soothing background music. The setting in the video keeps changing, and fans have noticed that each scene has a new Jujutsu Kaisen character added every ten minutes.
Fans are naturally confused by the project, since they have no idea what it is. It’s been hours since the premiere started and the description states that it’s a very long video. Rumor has it, it’ll keep going for 10 hours or so.
Just a Promotional Video?
There doesn’t always have to be a hidden meaning to such things, so one of the options is that it’s just a promotional video for Volume 26, and nothing else. It’s a countdown before the official release of the volume, and we shouldn’t treat it like such a big deal.
A similar thing was already done for one of the previous Jujutsu Kaisen volumes. However, this time it feels different. As we’ve said, the special video is extremely long. It’s been playing for hours, and it’s suspicious. Moreover, most of the frames include Gojo, and we all know the state of his fans right now.
Tribute to Gojo
All of that made fans think that this special video might just be a tribute to Gojo, since he died in this volume of the manga. That’s why there are so many moments of him spending time with Geto and other people who were important to him.
Still, it’s all very suspicious indeed. There might be a small chance of something happening when the video finally ends.
The Volume 26 art featuring Gojo was released last week, and it made a lot of fans think it was a clue for Gojo’s comeback. A lot of them are confident: the strongest sorcerer will return to the manga, and they see any tiny piece of news as a hint for that.
It’s highly unlikely that Gojo’s return will be announced like that, via a special YouTube video, but there’s still hope to get more content and more potential clues that will provide more perspective on Gojo’s fate.
