Fans of Jujutsu Kaisen are concerned about a recent update to Nobara Kugisaki’s Facebook status! Even as the manga continues its journey through the Culling Game, fans are still reeling from the plethora of questions that remain unanswered as a result of the events surrounding the Shibuya Incident. Because the Culling Game began as a direct result of the Shibuya Incident, Yuji and the others did not have enough time to catch their breath and recover from such a jarring change in the status quo of the world. This means that there are a slew of characters still waiting in the wings who fans are still curious about, among them:
The most important of these questions, without a doubt, revolve about Nobara. Because, despite the fact that she was on the point of death, the final word we had regarding the severity of her injuries following her encounter with Mahito was that she had a limited chance of escaping death. Whether she was able to make it out alive or not has yet to be revealed in the series, and a recent update from Shueisha’s Shonen Jump has fans even more concerned than they were before, with her status presently described as “severely damaged, paralysed, or deceased.”
Nobara’s condition is listed as one of the three options above, according to @soukatsu_ on Twitter, and while she hasn’t been officially confirmed as dead or alive, it has been established that her face and head have been “ruptured” as a result of Mahito’s power to manipulate time. That she is currently in this state with Mai Zenin and Masamichi Yaga, both of whom died in the aftermath of the Shibuya Incident, further adds to the concern surrounding her current situation.
If you’re in this company, you’re not in good company, and you’re not in good company until the series discloses the truth one way or another.
Nobara’s legal standing is undoubtedly in doubt, but it is by no means the only legal status that has been called into question as a result of the Shibuya Incident. Due to the fact that Yuji and Megumi are currently engaged in the Culling Game, it may be some time before we learn what is going on outside of any of these colonies. At the very least, it is possible that we will have to wait a long time before hearing from Nobara.
But, what are your thoughts? Do you believe Nobara is still alive or dead?
