Why is Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 249 delayed?
The release date of JJK chapter 249 was pushed back due to its creator, Gege Akutami’s break. Although the Weekly Shonen Jump issue 9 will be released this week, it will not include JJK. This means that chapter 249 will be included in the tenth issue.
Where to read Jujutsu Kaisen manga?
Fans can read the JJK manga on Viz Media’s official website, Shueisha’s MangaPlus website, and the Shonen Jump Plus app. Moreover, Shonen Jump also allows fans to read Chapters 247 and 248 for free. However, you can read the rest of the chapters after a subscription.
What to expect from JJK 249?
Jujutsu Kaisen editor Junya Fukuda recently revealed the upcoming chapters will be particularly shocking as the series is nearing its conclusion. Per Dexterto, chapter 249 may finally lead to Yuta’s domain expansion as his true powers have never been fully explored ever since it was last teased during the Culling Game arc. Other speculations about the coming chapter hint at an intense fight sequence between Yuta and Sukuna.
