Is the manga release for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263 delayed? Many fans who are up to date with the manga are dying to know what will happen next in the ongoing fight between Sukuna and Yuta. So, here is a guide on the Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263 delay.
Is Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263 delayed?
The release date for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263 has been delayed.
The chapter was initially supposed to come out this week on Sunday, June 30. The series was on a two-week break due to author Gege Akutami’s health.
Some fans were already expressing their concerns for the author on social media since Chapter 262 was shorter than usual, with only seven pages. However, this is not the first time Akutami has released a short or seemingly unfinished chapter.
When is Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263 coming out?
The new release date for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 263 is Sunday, July 7 at 11 a.m. ET/10 a.m. CT/8 a.m. PT.
The official X (formerly Twitter) account of Jujutsu Kaisen announced that the manga will come back to Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #32 on Monday, July 8, and the date will be July 7 in the United States. Even though Akutami is feeling better, it has been decided that he should take another break so he can go back to writing in perfect health.
Needing to take breaks for health concerns is a common issue among manga authors. Due to the strict deadlines and tight schedules, many authors often develop health issues because of the stress involved. Thankfully, it seems like manga magazines are becoming more aware and cautious of this problem.
Jujutsu Kaisen is a shonen manga series by Gege Akutami. The official synopsis from Shueisha reads:
“For some strange reason, Yuji Itadori, despite his insane athleticism would rather just hang out with the Occult Club. However, he soon finds out that the occult is as real as it gets when his fellow club members are attacked! Meanwhile, the mysterious Megumi Fushiguro is tracking down a special-grade cursed object, and his search leads him to Itadori…”
