Jujutsu Kaisen Is Returning To Theaters
Jujutsu Kaisen 0 Marked The Anime’s First Foray
Jujutsu Kaisenis eyeing a return to theaters shortly, marking the anime’s second step into theaters. The show first toed into the space withJujutsu Kaisen 0which released in December 2021. The movie, which is based on Gege Akutami’s same manga, acts as a prequel to the events ofJujutsu Kaisenseason one. Rather than Yuji Itadori, fans follow a hero named Yuta Okkotsu as he is thrust into the world of jujutsu sorcery, and he is taught by none other than Gojo.
Of course,Jujutsu Kaisen’s second film will not be quite as thrilling as the first. After all, the upcoming feature is a compilation movie. The film will recapJujutsu Kaisenseason two’s first half into movie format, making it easier for audiences to consume. Thedouble-dipping gives MAPPA a chance to profit further fromJujutsu Kaisenseason two,but does that bode poorly for season three?
The Future Of Jujutsu Kaisen’s Anime Is Bright
The Anime Is Heading Towards Season 3
In the wake ofJujutsu Kaisenseason two, MAPPA confirmed the anime has a new season in the works. The show’s third season will bring a rather vital arc to life that manga readers know well.The Culling Games are on deck to hit the small screen,but no updates have been given onJujutsu Kaisenseason three since it was first announced in December 2023.
As you can imagine, fans are a little antsy about the lack of updates on the upcoming season. Rather than tout season three, MAPPA took time at Anime Japan 2025 to highlight this compilation movie. The film may be fun, but in the end, it doesn’t progress the story ofJujutsu Kaisen. The anime’s recent silence has netizens speculatingJujutsu Kaisenmay not bring season three to life until 2026at this rate. But if that wait is what it takes to do Akutami’s story justice, then it will be time well spent.
