Fans were eagerly waiting for the spoilers of Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 270 this week, but they were disappointed to learn that the leaks were delayed. Last week’s chapter was significant, leaving everyone stunned since it marked the end for the King of Curses, Ryomen Sukuna. Now, people are left wondering what caused the delay and when can they expect updates on Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 270.
Here’s everything they need to know.
Why are Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 270’s spoilers and leaks delayed?
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 270’s spoilers and leaks are delayed due to a holiday in Japan.
In September, the country celebrates Respect for the Aged Day on the third Monday, which falls on September 16, 2024. This holiday sometimes disrupts the regular publication timetable for Weekly Shonen Jump.
The spoilers are usually out by late Wednesday or early Thursday, but the holiday in Japan could be the main reason for the delay. (via Reddit)
When will Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 270’s spoilers come out?
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 270 is scheduled to be released on Monday, September 23, 2024, in Japan (September 22 in the US). Spoilers for the manga usually surface about 3-4 days before the new chapter drops. But, this time, there’s a delay due to the Respect for the Aged Day holiday. The delay could be about a few hours or even a day. So, we can speculate that the spoilers might come out by late Thursday or even Friday. However, there’s no official confirmation till now.
What happened in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 269?
In Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 269, Yuji, Yuta, and the others apologize for having contributed less to the battle against Sukuna that has now ended. They decide to look ahead in the future.
Further, in the conversation between Kusakabe and Mei Mei, they delve into the evolution of the New Shadow Style, discussing the limitations that had been imposed on it for years. Initially, this style was exclusive, unable to be passed on to others due to its monopolization by a select few. However, as time went on, the landscape shifted, allowing the New Shadow Style to be shared with others in return for valuable exchanges.
Chapter 269 also gives a hint that perhaps Gojo’s return to Jujutsu Kaisen finale is official. Gege Akutami often hints at Buddha whenever Gojo is involved. Since Buddha left home at 29 to seek enlightenment, Gojo might have met his end in the story only to come back enlightened as the manga wraps up.
