Amidst the hype about Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, countless posts related to the Culling Game arc have been released. Right now, several accounts on Twitter pose as the official news bearer for the Jujutsu Kaisen anime, but which one to believe? Recently, a picture has been circulating on Reddit and claimed to be illustrated by one of the Jujutsu Kaisen animators. How much truth is there in this post? What details did Mappa specifically release on Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3? Here is everything you need to know about the latest season of Jujutsu Kaisen!
Jujutsu Kaisen Series: Fake Post Alert!
Jujutsu Kaisen anime had a roller coaster ride with Season 2. With grave allegations against Mappa by the animators, the anime series managed to sail ashore through the waves. With the recent announcement about Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, fans have encountered several posts about the Culling Game Arc, and the vast majority of the posts in question were debunked.
There have been many posts on Twitter from an account posed as Gege Akutami, who posted about the Culling Game Arc. It was revealed later by many Jujutsu Kaisen anime enthusiasts that Gege Akutami is a private person and does not have any social media accounts. Nobody, in fact, to this date knows how Gege Akutami looks in real life. None of the usual details about a mangaka of a well-known manga series are available, including the author’s age or gender! So, if you ever come across any posts on any social media from Gege Akutami on Jujutsu Kaisen, know there is a high chance it’s fake!
Jujutsu Kaisen Anime: Fake Illustration Went Viral
Similarly, a recent illustration on Jujutsu Kaisen anime is making rounds on Reddit again, claiming to be a part of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3. The illustration was about Mei Mei and her brother Ui Ui. Now, fans of the series know how controversial this relationship is in the series.
There is a controversial narrative around these two characters, and everyone is bringing this to light. Many fan art of these characters was shared on Twitter, but one post was taken out of context and shared on the r/Jujutsu Kaisen community. This post wrongly attributed the illustrations to the animators of the Jujutsu Kaisen series. The illustration credit goes to the Twitter user @owl2674. No animators from the Jujutsu Kaisen franchise have revealed any illustrations for Season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen. This situation leads us to the question: what has Mappa revealed about Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3?
