Jujutsu Kaisen has a fair bit on its plate these days, and things are about to explode for the anime stateside. There is a little over a week before the show’s big film goes live in the United States, and season three is in the works over in Japan. All of this is without mentioning Jujutsu Kaisen‘s latest project, and it even introduces a few new students fans will want to know.

The update comes straight from the new title as fans were able to play Jujutsu Kaisen: Phantom Parade starting this week. It was there fans were greeted with some familiar faces as expected, but the game’s anime opening introduced two never-before-seen students along the way.
According to the game, Saki Rindo is a new first-year student at Jujutsu High School’s Fukuoka branch. The blonde girl is seen dressed in a long skirt and cropped uniform top while her classmate Kaito Yuki dresses similarly to Megumi. Another newcomer was introduced as well by way of Kensuke Nagino as he oversees the Fukuoka branch. At this point, the game has revealed little information about these new sorcerers, but fans admit they fit in perfectly with the actual anime. Jujutsu Kaisen: Phantom Parade fits the pair in perfectly with its opening, and fans wouldn’t mind if these three newcomers showed up in Gege Akutami’s main series down the line.
