"The ultimate Zen'in gathering!" Fans are hype as the final Vol. 3 of "Jujutsu Kaisen ≡" is released with an illustration card of the "Zen'in Bloodline" by Yuji Iwasaki and Gege Akutami

The official "Jujutsu Kaisen" X account has released a "Zen'in Bloodline" illustration card to commemorate the release of the final 3rd volume of the "Jujutsu Kaisen ≡" manga on Friday, May 1. The front of the card features newly drawn illustrations by both Yuji Iwasaki and Gege Akutami, which has quickly become a hot topic.

The released image shows four illustrations lined up together. On the left side, Tsurugi Okkotsu and Yuka Okkotsu are depicted against green and red backgrounds, while the right side features a gathering of the Zen'in clan members from "Jujutsu Kaisen," including Megumi Fushiguro, Maki Zen'in, Toji Fushiguro, and Naoya Zenin.

"Jujutsu Kaisen ≡" is an official spin-off of "Jujutsu Kaisen," with the original story by Akutami and art by Iwasaki. This series, which was serialized as a short-term intensive run in "Weekly Shonen Jump," is set in the near future of 2086—68 years after the "Culling Game" in the main story. Centered on the siblings Tsurugi and Yuka, who are the grandchildren of Yuta Okkotsu and Maki, the story depicts the involvement of sorcerers with extraterrestrial life forms calling themselves "Simulians" who suddenly arrived on Earth, and the fate of the world.

Fans reacted to this post with comments such as, "This really is a Zen'in reunion," "Toji's coolness is honestly just insane," and "Seeing Toji and Naoya in the same official frame by the original author is absolute peak."
