What Will Happen in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2?
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 10 featured a heart-wrenching moment of witnessing Satoru Gojo being sealed within the Prison Realm, which has thrown the sorcerer world into chaos.
In Episode 11, Itadori, Nanami, Fushiguro, and Inumaki join forces to dismantle the "Curtain" without involving other sorcerers. They discover the Curtain's strength comes from placing its foundation outside in a conspicuous location. As they head toward a tall tower in Shibuya, they encounter Cursed Sorcerers lying in wait.
As reported before the season's release, the episodes debuting in 2023 are adapting the "Kaigyoku/Gyokusetsu" arc and the "Shibuya Incident" arc.
Warning - The rest of this article contains spoilers for the "Shibuya Incident" arc in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga.
During the "Shibuya Incident" arc, significant events include the sealing of Gojo Satoru, the reanimation of Toji Fushiguro, and confrontations involving Megumi.
The Shibuya Massacre, Kento Nanami's death, Nobara Kugisaki's apparent downfall, and Kenjaku's absorption of Mahito through Cursed Spirit Manipulation are pivotal moments in the arc.
As the story progresses, Mahito's apparent demise leads to the "Itadori Execution Arc," introducing Yuta Okkotsu.
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 will likely cover these crucial plot points and preceding battles, along with detailed explanations of curse techniques, Black Flash development, Mahoraga's origin, and the nature of Death Paintings from the manga, all of which require substantial screen time for proper exploration.
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 12 will be available on Crunchyroll on Thursday, October 12.
