Kimetsu no Yaiba and Jujutsu Kaisen are the two most talked-about anime at the present moment. In fact, many younger Gen Zs have entered the world of anime because of the popularity of these two anime. Though the 2nd season of Kimetsu no Yaiba has been already out and finished airing, Jujutsu Kaisen 2nd season is still yet to come.
I mean, we all get why Jujutsu Kaisen became so popular. MAPPA has been doing some really great job since the handover of Attack on Titan from WIT Studio. We all have to agree that the animation of Jujutsu Kaisen is visually stunning. And then we have Junichi Suwabe as the sexy voice behind our bad boy Sukuna who is an extremely evil person, but we can’t actually hate him, can we? (Did you know he also voiced Grimmjow in Bleach which is also returning this October after 10 long years?) And let’s not talk about Gojo Sensei, his power, and killer looks at all. Because that will need another article.
In this article, we will talk about Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Release Date and everything else you need to know to be prepared for the upcoming season.
A little Recap
Before Jujutsu Kaisen anime season 2 release date comes, we should refresh our memories with some flashbacks from the first season. It has already been a little over a year.
Our main character Itadori Yuji is dumb but for a normal human being, he has inhumane strength. After proving himself to be a potential vessel of Sukuna, the main villain of the series, Satoru Gojo decides to use Yuji to destroy Sukuna once and for all. With the help of Megumi and Nobara, Yuji’s other two companions, they start to collect Sukuna’s disgusting mummified fingers. But a new villain group is on the rise whose main goal is still not clear at all.
Is there a season 2 of jujutsu Kaisen
To be honest, season one of Jujutsu Kaisen does not end with an unbearable cliffhanger. But yes, of course, Jujutsu Kaisen is coming back for another season. It wouldn’t make any sense if it didn’t as both the anime and the manga are super popular now.
Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 release date and time
Anime studios don’t like to make long-running shows anymore. That’s why there is usually a big gap between anime seasons. Though the wait is crucial, at least we don’t have to get bored watching useless filler episodes. This is one of the reasons it is taking time for Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 to be completed.
When is Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 release date?
The official date is still unknown. The estimated time is 2023. It will probably be aired in either of the three most popular anime airing seasons— winter, spring, or the fall. If you ask my opinion, my guess would be the fall of 2023. The director Park Seong-hu quit MAPPA to return to his country to start his own animation studio. (He is a South Korean guy.) So there is a shift in the main working panel. It might also have an effect on the anime. For now, let’s just hope for the best.
Which Arc Will Jujutsu Kaisen Anime Season 2 Cover?
Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 will be covering the Shibuya Arc, the most popular arc of the manga till now. Shibuya Arc has a total of 58 chapters, most of which are filled with heavy information. So there is a great chance that some of your unanswered questions will get answered in the 2nd season. This also gives us hope that season 2 will have more episodes than season 1.
Be prepared for a lot of epic fighting scenes and some unpredictable twists.
Are We Going to See Any New Characters? Yes, a lot. And we will see them all in hardcore action.
Jujutsu Kaisen 0
Jujutsu Kaisen 0 is a canon prequel movie of the same series that came out at the end of 2021. It is not available in many countries right now.
Jujutsu Kaisen 0 tells the story of Okkotsu Yuta. We didn’t see him in season 1, but his name was mentioned and it was clear that he is a prodigy and extremely powerful. But he is also one of those kids with control issues. Suguru Geto also plays the main antagonist in this film. If you get a hold of this movie, don’t forget to watch it.

Which Anime Can You Watch Until Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Hits the Platform?
I would really recommend you to watch Parasyte -the maxim- and Tokyo Ghoul if you enjoyed Jujutsu Kaisen.
Parasyte -the maxim- is a very underrated sci-fi anime that hardly anybody talks about. The main character, Shinichi, also has someone residing inside his body that helps him whenever he is in trouble. It has some horror elements that will keep you hooked to the screen till the end.
Though Pierrot really did some injustice to the manga, I would say Tokyo Ghoul is still worth giving a try. Dark Fantasy Seinen anime are always quite different from any other anime. Tokyo Ghoul has the least amount of ecchi and sexual content. There are no practical jokes. The plot is pretty great and has a very serious tone.
Lastly, you should give Hunter x Hunter and World Trigger a try because the mangaka of Jujutsu Kaisen Gege Akutami himself admitted that he got his inspiration for Jujutsu Kaisen from these two mangas.
So have fun watching a lot of new anime. Cheers!
