Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2: An Exciting Journey into Gojo's Past and Beyond

Fans of Jujutsu Kaisen have eagerly awaited the return of the beloved anime since the confirmation of Season 2 in February 2022. This highly anticipated installment is set to adapt multiple arcs from the immensely influential manga. The first arc to be explored is "Gojo's Past," delving into the backstory of the fan-favorite Jujutsu sorcerer, Satoru Gojo, and his complex relationship with his former friend turned villain, Suguru Geto. The Season 2 trailer offered glimpses of this captivating arc, along with a preview of the new opening theme, "Ao no Sumika," performed by Tatsuya Kitani. Additionally, Junya Enoki, the voice actor for Yuji, confirmed the adaptation of the notorious "Shibuya Incident" arc.

The previous season, comprising 24 episodes, followed the journey of Yuji Itadori after consuming the finger of the powerful Curse, Ryomen Sukuna. He was compelled to join Tokyo Prefectural Jujutsu High School under Gojo's guidance, forming close bonds with fellow students Nobara Kugisaki and Megumi Fushigiro. The anime's immense popularity propelled Gege Akutami's manga to become one of the best-selling in the medium. It was also recognized as part of the esteemed "Dark Shonen Trio," alongside Hell's Paradise and Chainsaw Man. For those in need of a refresher, a comprehensive recap of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1 is available.

The most recent addition to Jujutsu Kaisen's content is the prequel movie, Jujutsu Kaisen 0.

Yuta is expected to make his debut in the upcoming season of the anime. The movie also features Suguru Geto as the antagonist.
