Jujutsu Kaisen's Anime Team Shares Its Season Two Goals
In the world of anime, there are few series that can challenge Jujutsu Kaisen when it comes to popularity. The shonen title has amassed millions of fans the world over, and MAPPA Studio hasn't been shy about thanking those supporters. Ahead of season two, the fandom's love has become more important than ever, and the team at MAPPA is now beginning to open up about their goals for Jujutsu Kaisen next year.
The update was shared with fans lucky enough to make the Jujutsu Kaisen panel at Anime Expo. It was there the CEO of MAPPA appeared on stage with Hiroshi Seko, the anime's scriptwriter. Manabu Otsuka also spoke with producer Hiroaki Matsutani, and it was there the trio said they want Jujutsu Kaisen season two to be flashier than anything they've done yet.
According to Otsuka, the CEO says the team is paying close attention to fans overseas as they work on season two. The show is massive both in Japan and in nations all over the world. As anime becomes bigger globally, responses from fans internationally are more important than ever, and Otsuka says his team is honing in on that reviews.

As for season two itself, Matsutani chimed in and said his team wants Jujutsu Kaisen to become even flashier. It is important for MAPPA to keep the anime exciting, and that feeling will be taken to a new level in season two. And while the trio could not say anything too specific about the new season, they are asking fans to have patience as Jujutsu Kaisen's new episodes come to life behind the scenes.
At this point, fans have not been told when season two will go live, but Jujutsu Kaisen has a release window. The series is slated to make its comeback in 2023. Right now, MAPPA is focusing on Chainsaw Man as the much-anticipated series is set to drop this October. But once Denji has hit the screen, fans can expect Yuji and his friends to follow suit.
