Nobara's return raises concerns over Gege Akutami's narrative choices in Jujutsu Kaisen, sparking debate amid claims of unfinished stories.

With Jujutsu Kaisen only having the last three chapters left, fans are wondering about the possibility of some leftover plots still hanging loose. The controversy revolves around the unexpected return of Nobara Kugisaki. Gege Akutami's decision to bring her back in the manga's final chapter diverted several unresolved plot threads, leaving the story in crucial areas.

Jujutsu Kaisen's fan base expresses disappointment at what they perceive as a lack of closure. There are eight significant plot lines that remain unaddressed as the manga ends its run. Fans are losing hope that these plot lines will be picked up in the final three chapters.

In chapter 267 of Jujutsu Kaisen, Nobara Kugisaki, presumed dead since her confrontation with Mahito, made an unexpected return. Her return, though marked by joy and relief, quickly gave way to doubt. Some argue that Gege Akutami used this type of tactic to gloss over the absence of an explanation for several stories that were loosely fitted into the series.
