The first season of Jujutsu Kaisen<\/em> ran from late 2020 to early 2021 with 24 episodes and was followed by prequel movie Jujutsu Kaisen 0<\/em> in December 2021. Season 2 ran from July to December 2023, with the latter \u201cShibuya Incident\u201d arc beginning a few weeks after the initial \u201cHidden Inventory\u201d arc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The anime is based on the\u00a0manga by\u00a0Gege Akutami<\/strong>, which\u00a0began serialization in Shueisha\u2019s Weekly Shonen Jump in 2018, following a four-chapter predecessor that is now known as\u00a0Jujutsu Kaisen 0<\/em>, and ended in 2024. Viz Media describes the manga as:<\/span><\/p>\n

Although Yuji Itadori looks like your average teenager, his immense physical strength is something to behold! Every sports club wants him to join, but Itadori would rather hang out with the school outcasts in the Occult Research Club. One day, the club manages to get their hands on a sealed cursed object. Little do they know the terror they\u2019ll unleash when they break the seal\u2026<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first season of the anime and Jujutsu Kaisen 0<\/em>\u00a0were directed by\u00a0Sunghoo Park\u00a0<\/strong>(God of High School<\/em>,\u00a0Ninja Kamui<\/em>), while Season 2 was helmed by\u00a0Shota Goshozono\u00a0<\/strong>(Jujutsu Kaisen<\/em>\u00a0Episode 17,\u00a0Ranking of Kings<\/em>\u00a0Episode 21, and\u00a0Chainsaw Man<\/em> Episode 8 storyboard artist and episode director).
