Following the epic conclusion of Jujutsu Kaisen in 2024—which featured Yuji Itadori’s final showdown against Sukuna—fans knew a franchise of this magnitude couldn’t stay dormant for long. Alongside its massive anime and film success, this paved the way for the spin-off series, *Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo*.
True to its Shonen Jump roots, *Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo* adhered to a weekly publication format, with fresh installments dropping regularly via the Shonen Jump app and Viz Media website. Capitalizing on the monumental success of the flagship Jujutsu Kaisen series, official English translations debuted nearly simultaneously with Japanese releases. While occasional breaks occurred to give creator Gege Akutami and illustrator Yuji Iwasaki adequate time for production, the weekly rhythm remained steady.
The journey concluded with Chapter 25 of *Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo*, which hit shelves on March 8, 2026. Simultaneously, Shonen Jump confirmed that this installment would serve as the grand finale for the spin-off.
From its inception, *Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo* was designed as a concise companion piece to the original manga (which wrapped up in September 2024). Spanning a planned six-month run following its September 1, 2025 debut, the series wrapped up cleanly on March 8, 2026, marking the end of the *Jujutsu Kaisen* saga—at least for the time being.
Mirroring the publication style of the original series, the spin-off followed a strict weekly cadence. Most chapters typically became available on Sundays at 10:00 AM PST / 1:00 PM EST.
Taking place 68 years after the events of the original story, *Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo* introduced an entirely unexpected cosmic threat: extraterrestrials. The narrative centers around the Simurians, an alien civilization that possesses its own distinct variation of Cursed Energy and Jujutsu Sorcery. The plot kicks off when a Simurian diplomat named Maru is dispatched to Earth to initiate diplomatic relations with humanity.
Yes, franchise creator Gege Akutami returned to write the story for *Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo*. However, the illustrative duties were handed over to Yuji Iwasaki. This creative partnership lent the spin-off a fresh visual identity while maintaining the narrative DNA that fans expected.
With both the main series and the *Modulo* spin-off now concluded, there are no immediate announcements regarding future installments. That said, given the colossal global popularity of both the manga and the anime adaptation, the door is never entirely closed on Gege Akutami revisiting this supernatural universe down the road. For the moment, followers of the franchise can focus on anticipating the next season of the anime.
