Hello everyone! I’m Saori from Otaku Republic!

This time! The spin-off manga of that series, currently airing as a Winter 2026 anime, has finally been released as a tankobon! What on earth has happened to the world 68 years after that manga......!?

Jujutsu Kaisen≡ (Modulo), the first volume of the manga version has finally been released! It feels like it went from announcement to serialization in the blink of an eye......

Once again, what is Jujutsu Kaisen≡ (Modulo)? Jujutsu Kaisen≡ (Modulo) is the official spin-off and official sequel manga to Jujutsu Kaisen, which currently has its third season airing since January 2026! Serialization began in September 2025, and the first volume was released in January 2026!

To briefly explain the synopsis, 68 years after the third anime season (The Culling Game), the siblings Tsurugi and Yuuka—Jujutsu sorcerers and descendants of Yuuta Okkotsu—make contact with an extraterrestrial life form calling itself a Simurian that suddenly appeared on Earth.

You might think, 'Wait, is there a connection between sorcerers and aliens?', but these Simurians are aliens who possess abilities similar to Jujutsu sorcerers. Marulu Val Vol Yelvori, the messenger of the Simurians, seems to be trying to determine if they can coexist with Earthlings who might possess the same powers by interacting with the siblings Tsurugi and Yuuka. He is basically very mild-mannered and understanding, but......

Also, most of the characters who appeared and were active in the main story have left the stage due to the passage of over 50 years. ......Yes, they were supposed to have left. Except for certain characters.

Even in the latest chapter, the 'aftermath' of a certain character is depicted, and this work is full of fan service. And for good reason—while the manga is drawn by Yuji Iwasaki-sensei, the story is completely supervised by Gege Akutami-sensei! Since ≡ (Modulo) is a term meaning the remainder of a division, people are buzzing that it might represent the 'remainder of Jujutsu Kaisen'—depicting parts that couldn't be written in the main story or foreshadowing that was never resolved! According to comments from the author, it is planned to be three volumes long (provided it isn't cancelled)! Since the first of those three volumes has been released, it's becoming a huge topic! Between the start of the third anime season and the release of the first spin-off volume, things are incredibly hot right now!

The broadcast date for the first episode of the third anime season is Thursday, January 8th! Please make sure to check out both the anime and the manga!
