Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 243: Release Date, Time, Where to Read Online and What to Expect

Jujutsu Kaisen is currently in the midst of its 11th arc overall, dubbed the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. Chapter 236 of this intense arc saw the death of a major character. We won’t go through them all here, but Sukuna’s acquisition of a new body means that the showdown between the strongest is almost over. Which one of the King of Curses or the jujutsu sorcerers will win? But one thing is certain—this battle is far from done.

If you’ve been reading this manga, you might be wondering when the next chapter is going to be out. Now, you can stop wondering!

Every single fan of the series is focused on Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 243 after the previous chapter proved to be quite ridiculous in a lot of ways. At the moment, the manga is heavily emphasizing the battle between Takaba and Kenjaku. It appears that this fight between these two characters won’t be ending anytime soon; it has been going on for about four chapters.

Here is everything you need to know about Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 243, including the release date, time, and where to read this.

Where Can I Read Jujutsu Kaisen?

You can read Jujutsu Kaisen online in several places. Manga Plus has the rights to broadcast the new chapters, while Viz Media is accessible to viewers in the US and Canada. That will, nevertheless, also be readable on Shonen Jump.

As of this writing, the printed volumes in Japan only reach number 24, so the best way to read this one is online.

Jujutsu Kaisen: Chapter 243 Release Date

It is anticipated that the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen chapter will be published on Sunday, November 26 at around 3 p.m. (GMT), 8 a.m. (PT), 11 a.m. (ET). Of course, it depends on how soon these chapters are posted. However, expect this to be very near to the release time.

The remaining chapters can be read on the aforementioned websites, and Crunchyroll also offers the anime in progress.

This chapter should be about 18-20 pages long.

How Many Chapters Will Jujutsu Kaisen Have?

Earlier in the year, it was revealed that Gege intended to finish Jujutsu Kaisen by the end of 2023. But this one will likely take another 30-40 chapters to complete the ongoing current arc.

Fans are surprised by this because Takaba wasn’t given much attention at the start of the arc. But now it seems like he’s among the front-runners in the Culling Game, for which the author has very ambitious plans. Fans are anticipating more from JJK chapter 243 after the strange show he put up in the previous chapter.

Takaba Vs Kenjaku Likely To Continue In Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 243

Readers of the manga witnessed an amazing battle between Takaba and Kenjaku in the previous chapter. Fans are aware of the extreme power these two characters possess. Regarding Kenjaku, his admirers are already aware of his extraordinary skill. He is, after all, one of the story’s primary antagonists. He has always been one of the strongest and over the years has vanquished several extremely strong sorcerers. Fans, however, are unable to express the same things about Takaba. Takaba had not even learned the cursed technique until recently, and in a very short time, he has advanced to the point where he can now fight.

Takaba’s level of skill was demonstrated when he killed a Special Grade Curse with ease in the previous chapter of the manga. The way he ended this curse is even more strange. He just used the swift-moving truck to strike the curse, and that was that. For the rest of the chapter, Takaba and Kenjaku were involved in strange antics that became strangers with every page turn. From becoming doctors and nurses to playing rock, paper, scissors, competing in a quiz contest, and eventually taking the stage together, these two characters experienced it all.

From this point on, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 243 will undoubtedly pick up and present what may turn out to be the fight’s climax. It is safe to say that it is very difficult to predict exactly what will occur in this particular section of the story. Since no fan can read Takaba’s thoughts, the author is essentially free to create whatever he pleases with this character, which only serves to enhance its allure. Considering that these two characters were spotted on stage in the previous chapter, JJK chapter 243 is probably going to feature them both in a live performance.

It is unclear exactly what this show will entail. It’s obvious that the fight has reached its climax, and readers will have to wait to find out what happens in this section of the narrative. The fans can now clearly see the nature of Takaba’s Cursed Technique. He cannot only make his fantasies come true but also to entice others to join him in his imagined universe.

He finds himself appreciating Takaba or participating in the plays he writes. It’s not that he wants to do it; it’s just that he is left with no other option. This indicates that his cursed technique is extremely dangerous and that the end should be very close, as it has been growing over the last few chapters.

Although there have been many fascinating aspects to this fight, fans can only hope that it ends sooner rather than later because there will be better fights later in the story, with characters like Sukuna and Yuji almost ready for battle.

Who Will Win Takaba Vs Kenjaku?

The answer to a significant query regarding Kenjaku and Takaba’s combat winner may be found in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 243. Fans have been curious about who will prevail in this fight ever since these two characters collide.

The problem here is that, as one of the primary antagonists throughout the entire series, Kenjaku can’t just succumb to a supporting role like Takaba. Kenjaku can never truly die here because he is an even greater enemy than Sukuna in many respects. Takaba, however, also cannot pass away so quickly. This is because his cursed technique is still not entirely realized. For some, it would just be a waste of character for him to die here when he has such frightening potential. Even though it’s possible, it would be a waste and nearly seem like the author made a foolish choice if he did die.

These factors make it obvious that there must be a particular way for this fight to end. For example, if this fight—possibly in JJK chapter 243—were to end with neither character dying, that would be the perfect ending. This is only going to happen if Kenjaku manages to spare Takaba or if there is some other way to break up the fight. This will help set Takaba up for even greater success while also enabling Kenjaku to carry out his plans without fear of failure.

Takaba’s Death In Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 243?

Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 243 might potentially shock readers by eliminating Takaba completely. As previously stated, the best-case scenario for Takaba and Kenjaku would be for them to survive and for this ordeal to come to an end in a way that keeps them both safe from the worst-case situation. But during the last few months, the story’s author has made some diabolical decisions. He has eliminated characters and made their storylines meaningless, and there’s no guarantee he won’t do it again.

Takaba is probably going to be the one to die in this fight. Takaba is the only one who is the underdog in this situation; Kenjaku is most definitely not going to lose. Takaba may die in JJK chapter 243 despite giving such a great performance. Of course, nothing is certain just yet, but given the recent handling of the story, nothing seems out of the ordinary.

Fans hope that Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 243 will end the conflict between Takaba and Kenjaku, returning the manga to its original plot of Sukuna versus Yuji and Higuruma. The world has been waiting to see this amazing fight unfold, and hopefully, it won’t be long before they can.

Viz Media offers Jujutsu Kaisen for reading. Fans can access the series officially and for free on the Manga Plus app and Shonen Jump. The next JJK chapter, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 243, is scheduled for release on November 26, 2023.

What Happened In Chapter 242?

To combat Takaba, Kenjaku calls forth a special grade curse in Chapter 242. Takaba breaks Kenjaku’s curse with his inventiveness, turning their predicament into a hilarious driving joke. This leads to Takaba and Kenjaku becoming clinic physicians. They attempt to revive the fish but are unable to do so. Takaba, dejected, scolds Kenjaku and transforms him into a nurse.

They divert their attention and play a game of rock, paper, and scissors for a while before taking part in a quiz show. Kenjaku discovers that Takaba uses a cursed technique to read his enemies’ minds and make their fantasies come true. In addition, Takaba can change an opponent’s thoughts to suit his own purposes in combat. From their playing in the ocean to their hit-and-run antics, more mayhem breaks out between them.

During their argument, Kenjaku realizes that Takaba’s connection to comedy must be severed to put an end to this madness. Kenjaku gets dressed up and asks Takaba to a stage performance as a result.

As the chapter comes to an end, the two are preparing for a comical fight in front of an audience that might or might not be real.
