Jujutsu Kaisen movie announced at AnimeJapan 2025

AnimeJapan 2025 has kicked off in Tokyo, showcasing exciting news in the anime world. This annual event brings together anime professionals and fans over two days to celebrate the latest in anime series and films. Major studios like Bandai Namco and Toei Animation are collaborating this year. One of the highlights is the Jujutsu Kaisen franchise, which is set to reveal details about its upcoming movie focused on the Hidden Inventory/Premature Death Arc. Although fans are eager for updates, there is currently no news about a third season for the series. The movie is scheduled for release in Japanese theaters on May 30, 2025. An official update will come on May 23, 2025. To build anticipation, Jujutsu Kaisen’s official X account shared a 21-second video featuring scenes of Gojo and Geto, showing their journey from youth to adulthood. The film will remaster the first five episodes of the anime's second season, focusing on Gojo's past as he and Geto try to protect a girl named Riko Amanai. Riko has a crucial role in merging with Master Tengen, a powerful figure in their world. This mission creates conflict for Gojo and Geto, setting the stage for their eventual separation. Fans are looking forward to exploring the deeper story behind these characters, as well as the events leading up to their difficult choices. The upcoming release is highly anticipated, and further information will be shared as the release date approaches.
