Mappa has an amazing record with their anime songs and artist choices, with hits like “Kaikai Kitan” by Eve which has 100M+ views on Youtube, “Kick Back” by Kenshi Yonezu which has 76M views, “Vivid Vice” by Who-ya Extended with 17M views, “My War” by Shinsei Kamattechan with 58M views and the list goes on and on.
This is all to say that the opening and ending songs are surely going to be a hit.
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Details
Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 will air on July 6, 2023, and will be split into two arcs.
The first arc will revolve around Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru in their teens and give us the backstory of our favourite anime teacher. This arc will also have lots of anime original scenes.
The real hype is in the second arc where the highly anticipated Shibuya Incident Arc will be televised. The second arc will also most likely get its own opening and ending songs.
There will be a change in director for the second season as the season one director left to open his own anime studio. Shota Goshozono will be the new director.
Mappa Studio previously released the anime trailer for season 2 which you can watch right here.
In case you haven’t already, you can watch the anime series on Crunchyroll. Crunchyroll describes the anime series as follows:
Yuji Itadori is a boy with tremendous physical strength, though he lives a completely ordinary high school life. One day, to save a classmate who has been attacked by curses, he eats the finger of Ryomen Sukuna, taking the curse into his own soul. From then on, he shares one body with Ryomen Sukuna. Guided by the most powerful of sorcerers, Satoru Gojo, Itadori is admitted to Tokyo Jujutsu High School, an organization that fights the curses… and thus begins the heroic tale of a boy who became a curse to exorcise a curse, a life from which he could never turn back.
