Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 has only one more episode left to end the season. It has been one wild ride with the new season. The Hidden Inventory arc was a mood-setter, but the fans were not expecting the new season to become so dark after the initial few episodes. Since the beginning of the Shibuya Incident arc, bodies have been piling up thanks to Mahito. He is the most hated character in the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom.
But thankfully, after hurting Yuji Itadori and the fans continuously, Mahita finally met his end after getting Yuji to give him one hell of a beating. While the fans are relaxing and thinking that the most hated character has been killed, another character is prepping to take that place by the end of Jujutsu Kaisen season 2. That character is none other than Naoya Zen’in.
Naoya Zen’in Is The Embodiment of Evil
Naoya Zen’in is the son of Naobita Zen’in, the 26th leader of the Zen’in Clan. He was supposed to be the next head of the Zen’in family until Megumi Fushiguro came into the play. Naoya Zen’in made his manga debut in chapter 138. Jujutsu Kaisen season 2, episode 22, covered till chapter 136. Currently, the anime is moving in the ratio of 3-3.5 manga chapters per episode. So, in episode 23, Naoya Zen’in is likely to make his manga debut.
He is one of the most evil characters in the anime, who is willing to go to any extreme to become the head of the Zen’in Clan. He is pretty prideful and does not care for anybody. Naoya has always disrespected Maki, Mai Zen’in, and other clan members. He is full of himself. Cruel, cunning, misogynist, etc., there are tons of other adjectives that can be used to define him.
After knowing that Megumi Fushiguro would succeed Naobita Zen’in, he devised a plan to kill him and take the throne. The manga readers know him and hate him to his core. Naoya Zen’in is the self-embodiment of evil. He inherited the old and oppressive ways of the Zen’in clan and took it to a few levels higher with his evil nature.
More on Jujutsu Kaisen
Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 has one more episode left. The last episode will air on December 28, 2023. After Naoya Zen’in, Yuta Okkotsu is also going to make his anime debut and look to execute Yuji Itadori. While the manga readers have a pretty good idea about Naoya Zen’in, the anime watchers will be in for a surprise. Noaya has a pretty face, and it might look like he is innocent, but as a wise man said, never judge a book by its cover.
The Jujutsu Kaisen fans just gave a sigh of relief after Mahito’s demise. They will be shocked to know that a more devious and arrogant character is about to make his debut. Naoya Zen’in is so evil that he later returns as a powerful Cursed Womb and tries to murder Maki Zen’in. Currently, the fans are waiting for the new antagonist in Jujutsu Kaisen season 2, episode 23, and boy, they will get the surprise of their life.
Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 can be streamed on Crunchyroll.
