Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo: 68 Years Later Gets English Print in 2027

Jujutsu Kaisen may have wrapped its main run, but the universe is far from over. VIZ Media confirmed on 12 June 2026 that Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo — Gege Akutami’s near-future sci-fi sequel — will receive its first English print edition in Spring 2027. The three-volume manga is already available to read in English right now on MANGA Plus and VIZ’s digital platform, but for local fans who prefer a book in hand, the physical volumes are on their way.

What Is Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo?

Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo (published in Japan as Jujutsu Kaisen ≡) is a direct sequel to the original manga, set in the year 2086 — 68 years after the Culling Game that defined the series’ final arc. Written by series creator Gege Akutami with artwork by Yuji Iwasaki, the story kicks off when an alien race known as the Simurians arrives on Earth in a spacecraft. Unlike most sci-fi aliens, the Simurians are capable of wielding Jujutsu Sorcery — and they’re not invaders. They’re looking for a new home.

The manga ran as a limited serialisation in Weekly Shonen Jump from September 2025 through early 2026, collected into three volumes. The final volume, Volume 3, was published in Japan on 1 May 2026.

Meet the New Okkotsu Siblings — and an Alien Diplomat

The three leads bring both a sense of legacy and something genuinely new to the JJK universe:

  • Tsurugi Okkotsu — grandson of Yuta Okkotsu and Maki Zen’in, the elder brother and a skilled jujutsu sorcerer
  • Yuka Okkotsu — Tsurugi’s younger sister, equally capable, and described as having an overpowered cursed technique of her own
  • Marulu Val Vol Yelvori (Maru) — the Simurian diplomat assigned to partner with the Okkotsu siblings; sent to demonstrate that his people can coexist with humanity

Fans of the original series will immediately recognise the weight of those surnames. Yuta Okkotsu was one of the most powerful sorcerers in the main run, and seeing his grandchildren carry that legacy into a sci-fi setting is a compelling hook even before you get into the actual story.

The MAPPA-Produced PV — a Taste of a Potential Anime

To commemorate the final volume’s release, Studio MAPPA — the team behind the JJK TV anime — produced a special animated PV for Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo (Japanese). The clip surpassed three million views within 12 hours of going live on the official Jump Channel, with many viewers noting it looked indistinguishable from an actual anime episode. No full adaptation has been announced yet, but the PV’s existence — and the audience response to it — makes one seem increasingly likely. Watch this space, especially with MAPPA’s 15th Anniversary event coming up on 19 June.

Three Volumes, All Out Now — English Print in Spring 2027

All three volumes of the manga are complete and readable in English right now via MANGA Plus by Shueisha (free, with ads) and the VIZ Media app. If you want to catch up before the physical editions arrive, there’s nothing stopping you.

VIZ Media’s Spring 2027 slate announcement also included the Slam Dunk Deluxe Edition and the first English release of Detective Conan in omnibus format — a strong season for manga fans overall.

Last words

JJK’s universe just got bigger — and stranger. If you’re a fan of the original series who hasn’t dipped into Modulo yet, this is a good moment to start: all chapters are free online, the physical English volumes are confirmed, and a MAPPA anime adaptation feels like a matter of when rather than if. Singapore fans can expect to find the print editions at Kinokuniya and other bookstores once they ship in Spring 2027. For more manga and anime news, browse our Manga Anime section.
