Manga fans have since been waiting to see how the second fight between Gojo and Sukuna will unfold. However, new chapter releases were delayed two weeks due to author Gege Akutami’s health issues. Now, it has been confirmed that the release of Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263 has been delayed to July.
You can read the official statement from the JJK team in the X post above. It reads (translated from Japanese to English),“Jujutsu Kaisen was scheduled to resume publication in issue 31 of Weekly Shonen Jump, but will resume publication in issue 32.“
The statement further mentions, “Although Akutami sensei’s health is improving, after consulting with the editorial staff, we have decided that he should resume writing only when he is in perfect health.”
We hope this extended break helps Gege sensei recover fully from his ongoing illness. While there isn’t a chapter release this week, JJK Volume 27’s extra pages and drawings will be arriving later this week. So, stay tuned for more updates about the Jujutsu Kaisen manga.
