Shonen Jump is in a tough predicament with a major series coming to an end. However, a new hit manga has the potential to become the next hit series.
Jujutsu Kaisen and My Hero Academia have, over the years, become household names in the anime and manga world. Anyone, who knows remotely anything about anime knows about these two absolute hits. These series have been huge highlights in their generation, but sadly, they have both come to an end. With two big manga series ending, a relatively new one is rising in Weekly Shonen Jump, and it seems they have their replacement already.
Jujutsu Kaisen and My Hero Academia Both Ended in 2024
2024 was a sad year for fans of Shonen manga. Two of the biggest shonen manga ended that year, and almost back-to-back, which made it even worse. These two series are none other than My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen.
Both series were deeply beloved by readers, and each had its own dedicated fanbase. My Hero Academia ran for 10 years, from 2014 to 2024. Jujutsu Kaisen had a far shorter lifespan in comparison. The manga started in 2018, so the story lasted just 6 years.
