Jujutsu Kaisen fans call out mangaka Gege Akutami for rushing the story
It is well known that My Hero Academia is nearing its end, with many speculating that the manga might conclude this year. Currently, the Final War is ongoing, featuring the Todoroki family fighting against Dabi and All Might taking on All For One.

The manga's recent pacing has been a turn-off for many readers, and it is understandable why the story may wrap up by year's end.
Fans feel that the storyline of Jujutsu Kaisen is moving too quickly just for the sake of wrapping up the plot. This has left some fans feeling disappointed with the direction that the series is taking.
Moreover, the comparisons to My Hero Academia have particularly been vituperative because the series used to receive a lot of hate from the animanga community till recently.
As the story unfolds in the upcoming chapters, it remains to be seen whether Gege Akutami and Kohei Horikoshi will be able to redeem themselves and provide fans with the ending that they deserve.

Spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 222, titled Omen, reveal that the chapter will begin with Sukuna consuming the fingers while Uraume apologizes for not being able to secure the final one. Sukuna will suspect that Gojo may have hidden it to protect Yuji, who cannot be executed until Sukuna consumes all of the fingers.

The chapter will then focus on different characters, such as Gojo being informed of Nanami's death and later being approached by Takuma Ino. Mei Mei will keep an eye on the betting pool for Gojo and Sukuna's battle and make a fortune selling tickets. Yuji will train with Atsuya Kusakabe and discover that Inumaki hid information regarding his missing arm in order to keep him safe.
On December 24, Kenjaku will plan to eliminate the remaining Culling Game players while Gojo fights Sukuna. Kenjaku will believe that even if Gojo loses, the other sorcerers from Jujutsu High will deal with the King of Curse. The chapter will then shift to Jujutsu High, where the students will wait for Gojo to arrive and encourage and support him.
