New Jujutsu Kaisen Movie!!

By Epic Dope Staff | March 27, 2021

Jujutsu Kaisen’s anime was a massive hit amongst all anime lovers, but now the series aims to break box-office records with its upcoming movie!

Jujutsu Kaisen’s new movie will premiere in Winter 2022. It is adapting Jujutsu Kaisen 0: Tokyo Prefectural Jujutsu High School, the series’ prequel.

One trailer has been released along with one illustration by Gege. Both show Yuta & his special grade curse, Rika.

Since the movie's plot will adapt Volume 0 of the manga, the story will be much different from that of the anime.

The main characters will be Yuta Okkotsu, Satoru Gojou, Zenin Maki, Inumaki Toge, and Panda.

Rika was the childhood friend of Yuta. However, he couldn’t bear her sudden death and denied reality, which ultimately led her to becoming a curse.

Crunchyroll simul-streamed all the episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen outside of Asia. Crunchyroll might stream the movie after its premiere.

Yuta made his debut in the actual Jujutsu Kaisen manga pretty recently in chapter 137 in the Yuji Execution arc.

Yuta is the appointed executioner of Yuji. There is a chance that Season 2 of the anime will adapt the arc.

Will the new movie give us an adrenaline rush just like its anime, or will it be even better? Fingers crossed!
