Jujutsu Kaisen‘s first season and movie were such a success that MAPPA has announced that they are now working on a second season. Planned for a release some time next year, there are still many questions about what to expect from the new episodes. As for Jujutsu Kaisen 0, the movie has become one of the highest grossing anime films of all time and is still running in theaters overseas to this day. This means there has yet to be any word on a home media release as of this writing, unfortunately. If you’re curious as to what to expect from the movie before checking it out for yourself,ย you can find ComicBook.com’s review of Jujutsu Kaisen 0 here. Here’s an excerpt to get you started:
“It’s an absolutely stunning work of animation that surpasses anything seen in the TV anime. It’s in everything from the lighting to the impressive fluidity in both the smallest character moments to the action sequences. Each of those sequences is different in its own way as well, and are a feast for the eyes and ears. Both the casts of the Japanese and English dubbed audio (both of which were viewed for the purposes of this review) knock it out of the park in this regard, with Megumi Ogata and Kayleigh McKee serving as major standouts of each cast respectively.ย It feels like an elevated experience, and that’s hard to do with a TV series that’s already highly praised for these aspects.”
