The Malaysian government is discussing a Nanami memorial with Akutami Gege.
Nanami dreamed of retiring and settling down in Malaysia.
Fans desperately want the government to go through with the memorial building.
It feels like one of the fans’ jokes, but the Malaysian federal government is currently trying to contact the author of Jujutsu Kaisen, Akutami Gege, through his publisher to discuss a Nanami memorial on Kuantan Beach.
Although the news about the memorial started appearing online only a few days ago, the conversation about the memorial is said to be in progress since December 2023. Which only proves that copyright issues are a complicated thing.
It Was His Dream
In Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 18 Nanami met his demise at the hands of Mahito. A beautiful scene preceded his death. Nanami was fantasizing about his retirement somewhere on a beach in Malaysia, dreaming of a calm life and reading all the books he never got the chance to read.
That’s why the memory of Nanami has such a strong connection to this county in fans’ minds. And that’s why, if a Nanami memorial is to be built somewhere, it has to be in Malaysia.
Jujutsu Kaisen fans have marked a Malaysian beach on Google Maps as a memorial to Nanami, so this is a case of a joke going a bit too far. So far that now it has an actual chance to become reality.
Great Tourist Spot
Although it’s poetic to suggest that the Malaysian government loved the idea of building the Nanami memorial only for the sake of expressing their appreciation for Jujutsu Kaisen, it’s fair to suggest that tourism has something to do with it as well.
A Malaysian politician, Leong Yu Man, revealed that the government is aiming for a massive tourist influx in 2024. And if the memorial is really finished this year, she might not be wrong.
Jujutsu Kaisen fans will gladly choose Malaysia as their next vacation spot just to see the place Nanami dreamed of. His death episode already piqued their interest, but if there’s a memorial, even more of them will pack their bags and head to the nearest airport to travel to Malaysia.
It’s Hilarious, But Amazing
Fans met the news with a feeling of great surprise. They never expected anything like that to happen in real life, but are very happy that it might. They think it will be one of the funniest but at the same time coolest things that has ever happened to the series.
JJK fans are hoping that Gege will agree to the memorial idea and Nanami will really be appreciated like that. It will be poetic indeed, since this way even a version of Nanami will fulfill the dream of settling down in Malaysia.
