Jujutsu Shenanigans has plenty of custom maps and different game modes for players to try, but the new story mode gives the game a very different feel. Instead of simply fighting other players, you can follow a character’s story and take part in battles inspired by major moments from Jujutsu Kaisen.
The story mode is available through a popular custom map and currently offers several character routes. Each route has its own battles, locations, and enemies. Some fights are straightforward, while others can become extremely difficult, especially near the end of the Gojo route.
How to Access the Jujutsu Shenanigans Story Mode
The story mode can be found through the custom map section in Jujutsu Shenanigans. The map featured in the gameplay is called the Maojo Story Mode and appears among the popular custom maps available in the game.
After loading the map, you will be taken to the story selection area. From there, you can choose which character’s story you want to play.
The available routes shown include:
- Yuji story
- Gojo story – Six Eyes
- Cursed Partners – Utah
- Megumi story
This means there are four different character stories to explore. Each one is designed around important events involving that character, so the fights and locations can be very different depending on which route you select.
Gojo Six Eyes Story Mode
The Gojo route is one of the most interesting choices because it lets you play through several major fights from Gojo’s story. The route starts with Gojo facing Toji, and the battles become much more dangerous as the story progresses.
You start with access to Gojo’s familiar abilities, including his Red, Blue, Hollow Purple, rapid punches, and other techniques. Learning how to combine these attacks is important because the NPCs in this story mode are much stronger than regular enemies found in some custom maps.
The story is not simply a collection of random boss fights. The battles are connected together and recreate different moments from Jujutsu Kaisen.
How to Beat Toji in the Gojo Story
The first major fight is against Toji, and he can deal serious damage if you allow him to stay close for too long. Even though you are playing as Gojo, it is still possible to lose the fight if you become careless.
A useful approach is to keep moving and combine Gojo’s attacks instead of repeatedly using the same move. You can start with rapid punches before connecting them with Red and Blue.
Try to save your stronger attacks for moments when Toji is vulnerable. Side dashes can also help you avoid his attacks and create enough space to prepare another combo.
After defeating Toji, the story continues instead of ending the stage. This is where the route starts becoming much more similar to the major events from Gojo’s story.
Fighting One-Finger Sukuna
After the Toji battle, Gojo eventually faces a one-finger version of Sukuna. This fight takes place around the high school area and gives you another chance to use Gojo’s abilities.
Sukuna’s NPC is stronger than you might expect, so rushing directly into the fight can quickly drain your health. Use your movement and cooldowns carefully while looking for opportunities to land a full combo.
The general strategy is to use rapid punches, follow them with Red or Blue, and then use your stronger abilities once Sukuna is in a vulnerable position.
The NPCs in this story mode can also interrupt attacks and punish mistakes, making the fights feel more like actual boss battles instead of basic training fights.
The Jogo Boss Fight
The Gojo route continues with a battle against Jogo. By this point, the enemies become noticeably more aggressive, so simply attacking nonstop is not always the best strategy.
Gojo’s ultimate mode becomes very useful here. Once your strongest abilities are available, you can combine Red, Blue, and Hollow Purple to deal large amounts of damage.
One important lesson from this fight is that you should not assume a boss will simply stand still and take your attacks. Jogo can interrupt attacks and punish predictable combos, so try to create openings before using your biggest moves.
Prison Realm Section
After progressing through the earlier battles, the story eventually reaches the Prison Realm section.
You will find a new area with an entrance that leads into the next part of the story. After entering, Gojo becomes trapped inside the Prison Realm.
Instead of immediately starting another boss fight, the game gives you an obstacle course that you need to complete to escape.
The section uses movement mechanics such as wall jumping, making it different from the previous combat stages. The parkour can be tricky at first, especially if you are not used to movement-based sections in Jujutsu Shenanigans.
Take your time with each jump. Holding the jump button can also make some of the wall-jumping sections easier to handle.
How to Escape the Prison Realm
The Prison Realm escape section is basically a parkour challenge. You need to climb through the area and reach the exit without falling.
Some jumps can look impossible at first, but the wall-jumping mechanic makes them possible. The important thing is to keep your movement controlled instead of rushing.
Once you successfully complete the obstacle course, you will reach the escape point.
However, escaping the Prison Realm does not mean the hardest part is over.
In fact, this is where one of the most difficult battles in the entire story begins.
Final Boss Battle
After escaping the Prison Realm, Gojo is confronted by several powerful enemies. The fight includes Maharaga, Sukuna, and Agito, turning the final section into a chaotic multi-enemy battle.
This encounter is much harder than the earlier fights because you can be attacked from multiple directions at once. Getting trapped between several enemies can quickly destroy your health.
The fight also becomes more difficult because dying does not simply send you back to the most recent checkpoint.
If you die during the final battle, you have to restart the story mode from the beginning.
Best Strategy for the Final Battle
The most important thing during the final battle is to avoid fighting all of the enemies at the same time.
Try to separate them whenever possible. Moving around the map can cause some enemies to get stuck behind buildings or fall behind, giving you an opportunity to fight another enemy alone.
A few useful strategies include:
- Keep moving instead of standing in one place.
- Try to separate the bosses.
- Use Simple Domain when you need protection or healing.
- Take advantage of buildings and the environment.
- Use Gojo’s ultimate mode when available.
- Save powerful attacks for isolated targets.
- Avoid getting surrounded.
- Use the dummy mechanic to distract enemies.
The dummy becomes particularly useful during this fight. You can spawn it and allow the bosses to attack it while you recover health or build your ultimate meter.
This can completely change the fight because it gives you time to focus on one enemy instead of dealing with all of them simultaneously.
How to Deal With Maharaga
Maharaga can be difficult to deal with because of the chaos happening around the battlefield. However, its movement can sometimes be used to your advantage.
If Maharaga becomes stuck behind buildings or falls behind the other bosses, take advantage of the situation. You can focus on another target while keeping your distance from Maharaga.
Do not waste too much time trying to force a direct fight if the boss is not immediately threatening you. The goal is to survive the entire encounter, not necessarily defeat every enemy as quickly as possible.
Use the Dummy to Control the Fight
One of the most useful discoveries during the final boss fight is the dummy.
The dummy can distract the bosses and sometimes survive long enough to give you a valuable opening. While the enemies are focused on it, you can recover health, build your ultimate mode, or attack from a safer position.
You can also spawn another dummy after the previous one is defeated.
This makes the dummy one of the most useful tools available during the final battle, especially when fighting the strongest enemy in the encounter.
How to Defeat the Final Boss
The final boss has a huge amount of health and can take a very long time to defeat. The battle can easily turn into a war of attrition, so patience is important.
Instead of trying to finish the boss with one massive combo, keep attacking whenever you have a safe opening.
Use the dummy to create distractions, then hit the boss with combinations involving Red, Blue, and Hollow Purple. Simple Domain can also help when you need protection or a chance to recover.
The final hit can come from a normal attack if necessary. Do not risk dying while trying to set up a perfect Hollow Purple or Hollow Nuke.
Once the boss finally goes down, the Gojo story route can be completed.
What Happens After Completing Story Mode?
After finishing the story, you are taken to an area where you can access additional game modes. The game also offers other activities, including modes such as Spleef, along with other custom content.
The story mode itself is not the only thing available, as the custom map contains additional areas and activities that you can explore after completing the main route.
Other Characters in Jujutsu Shenanigans Story Mode
The Gojo route is only one of the available stories. The selection screen also includes three other characters or story routes:
- Yuji
- Utah
- Megumi
These routes are expected to follow different parts of their respective stories and provide different battles compared with Gojo’s route.
If you have already completed Gojo’s story, trying another character is a good way to get more content from the custom map.
Is Jujutsu Shenanigans Story Mode Worth Playing?
Yes, especially if you have already spent a lot of time playing normal Jujutsu Shenanigans matches and custom boss battles.
The biggest advantage of the story mode is that it gives you a more structured experience. Instead of jumping from one random fight to another, the battles are connected and recreate moments inspired by Jujutsu Kaisen.
The Gojo route is particularly challenging because of its final battle. The combination of multiple bosses, limited healing, and having to restart after dying makes the ending much more difficult than the earlier stages.
