(Last Updated On: March 27, 2021)

The Jujutsu Kaisen Movie was announced bt 24th and final episode of the current Jujutsu Kaisen television anime ended on Friday, Gekijō-ban Jujutsu Kaisen 0 (Jujutsu Kaisen 0 the Movie), will release this winter. The film will be based on Gege Akutami’s Jujutsu Kaisen 0 Tokyo Toritsu Jujutsu Kōtō Senmon Gakkō (Jujutsu Kaisen 0: Tokyo Prefectural Jujutsu High School) manga story, with MAPPA animating again and TOHO distributing.

Jujutsu Kaisen is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Gege Akutami, published in Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump since March 2018. The individual chapters of Jujutsu Kaisen are compiled and published by Shueisha, with fifteen tankōbon volumes released as of March 2021. The story follows Yuji Itadori, a high school student, joins a secret organization of Jujutsu Sorcerers to kill a powerful Curse named Ryomen Sukuna, of whom Yuji becomes the host. The series is a sequel to a four-part monthly series on Jump GIGA called Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School, which ran from April to July 2017, and was later released under the title Jujutsu Kaisen 0 in December 2018.

Viz Media released the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 manga on January 5, and it describes the story:

Yuta Okkotsu is a nervous high school student who is suffering from a serious problem—his childhood friend Rika has turned into a Curse and won’t leave him alone. Since Rika is no ordinary Curse, his plight is noticed by Satoru Gojo, a teacher at Jujutsu High, a school where fledgling exorcists learn how to combat Curses. Gojo convinces Yuta to enroll, but can he learn enough in time to confront the Curse that haunts him?

Crunchyroll describes the anime’s story:

Hardship, regret, shame: the negative feelings that humans feel become Curses that lurk in our everyday lives. The Curses run rampant throughout the world, capable of leading people to terrible misfortune and even death. What’s more, the Curses can only be exorcised by another Curse.

Itadori Yuji is a boy with tremendous physical strength, though he lives a completely ordinary high school life. One day, to save a friend who has been attacked by Curses, he eats the finger of the Double-Faced Specter, taking the Curse into his own soul. From then on, he shares one body with the Double-Faced Specter. Guided by the most powerful of sorcerers, Gojo Satoru, Itadori is admitted to the Tokyo Metropolitan Technical High School of Sorcery, 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.

Sunghoo Park (The God of High School) directed the anime at MAPPA. Hiroshi Seko (Attack on Titan: Lost Girls, Banana Fish, Vinland Saga) wrote and supervised the scripts. Tadashi Hiramatsu (His and Her Circumstances, Yuri !!! on Ice, Parasyte -the maxim-) designed the characters. Hiroaki Tsutsumi, Yoshimasa Terui, and Arisa Okehazama composed the music.
