Jujutsu Kaisen Cursed Clash is the upcoming video based on Gege Akutami's famous manga and anime series while offering an option of tag team battles. This is a very important aspect of this story's battles since a lot of characters tend to team up in combat and recent clips gave the fandom some glimpses of a ship a lot of people tend to like.
Considering that Jujutsu Kaisen Cursed Clash managed to give people some more interactions between Yuta Okkotsu and Maki Zen'in, that is something a lot of fans will find appealing. While this isn't a story that has a lot of focus on romance, the connection between the two characters is something that fans find quite fun and logical within the series' context.

Jujutsu Kaisen Cursed Clash gave the fandom some new interactions between Yuta Okkotsu and Maki Zen'in
This is the first fighting video game of Gege Akutami's manga, titled Jujutsu Kaisen Cursed Clash. The story portion of the game had a section where Yuta Okkotsu and Maki Zen'in fight against Suguru Geto, just like it happened in the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 volume.
The game itself was designed by Byking and Gemdrops and is bound to come out on February 1, 2024, with Bandai in charge of the release and distribution. It shows a lot of great visuals that perfectly represent the characters from both the manga and the anime. It also gives the opportunity to fight one-on-one or as a team, which is a very prevalent element of the series.
The fandom was happy to see more of Yuta and Maki, a duo that a lot of fans have appreciated greatly over the years. The film adaptation of the 0 volume helped a lot with that since it capitalized on the hype and success of the anime's first season. This made the pairing all the more endearing and people hope they have a major role to play in the series moving forward.
The appeal of the Maki and Yuta pairing

The fandom loved that the Jujutsu Kaisen Cursed Clash game showed Yuta and Maki fighting together and it was because of how unique their relationship is. Owing to how author Gege Akutami has made very little use of romance in the series, this is one of the reasons these characters have been shipped so much throughout the years.
The moment that Yuta joined Jujutsu High, he had issues with Maki because the latter didn't respect him because of his weakness and how shy he was, although they began to bond as the series progressed. Eventually, Maki begins to open up to Yuta and their connection is felt, with the latter saving her from Suguru Geto at the end of the series' first arc.
However, it is also fair to say that Yuta and Maki haven't had the type to further develop their relationship, whether as friends or something else, in the main series because of how fast-paced the story is. The characters have been jumping from one plot to another without much time to breathe, which is a major criticism that Gege Akutami has received in recent times.
Final thoughts
The Jujutsu Kaisen Cursed Clash is bound to come out in February and gave the fandom some nice shipping material by showing a teaming up of Maki Zen'in and Yuta Okkotsu. It is something that has helped those fans who think they are going to end up together at the end of the series if they survive.
