Jujutsu Kaisen is often compared to the likes of Bleach, Naruto, and One Piece due to how surreal the story written by Gege Akutami is. It is often hailed as one of the best series in recent years and has a massive fan following around the globe.
Like many authors, Gege Akutami has kept their personal details behind a mascot, which they designed to convey messages to the fans as well as to post witty comments. The caricature only has one eye and in 2021, Gege revealed that they only gave the cat one eye because it was too much hassle to draw two eyes.
Jujutsu Kaisen author Gege Akutami only drew one eye on his Caricature because he was too lazy
Gege Akutami is often known in the community for their trolling and witty comments about their characters and their hatred towards the strongest sorcerer of today, Gojo Satoru.
Jujutsu Kaisen began in 2018 and has been going on ever since, with the series expected to end in 2024 or early 2025, according to the author.
The manga had one of the highest sales of the year and the anime managed to grab a spot in the top 3 most-in-demand shows worldwide.
To keep in touch with fans as well as post comments at the end of the chapters, Gege uses a one-eyed cat to convey a message.
Many fans always wondered why the caricature of the mangaka has only a single eye and many even came up with popular theories.
However, we know Gege’s habit of always surprising the fans with the most unexpected things. In 2021, Gege revealed the truth behind drawing the character with only a single eye.
The reason was that Gege wanted to be lazy and thought that drawing two eyes would be a hassle, so he decided to go ahead with a single-eye mascot.
