Breaking down the new trailer of Jujutsu Kaisen season 2
Given that Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 premieres on July 6, a new trailer has been released, which has increased anticipation even further. The trailer provides partial insight into Gojo’s past. It further reveals some fighting sequences between him and Suguru Geto, his best friend, as well as more glimpses of Toji Fushiguro, the main antagonist of the arc.
The arc of Gojo’s past is a very important portion of author Gege Akutami’s story. Here the audience can understand a bit more of who Gojo is and why he does the things he does, the role and fall from grace that Geto went through, and the importance of Toji for Gojo’s growth and development as a person and a sorcerer. In that regard, this season is very important for the story’s progression.
Additionally, The Shibuya Incident arc, which is widely regarded as the best in the series and one of the best in recent years of modern shonen, will also be covered in the second half of the season. The plot shifts the action back to the present when the main character, Yuji Itadori, and his friends face numerous threats.
The success of Jujutsu Kaisen
The excitement and hype surrounding Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 are very understandable when taking into account how popular this series has been over the years. Written and illustrated by Gege Akutami, Jujutsu Kaisen has sold over 80 million copies since it began circulation in 2018. It has gone on to become one of the highest-regarded modern shonen series in the business.
Part of the series’ success has been down to the strong and well-written character, Akutami’s capacity to subvert a lot of classic tropes of the genre, a well-defined battle system, and battle scenes that are quite well done. From the standpoint of the animation, MAPPA Studios’ work on the first season was extraordinary, elevating the source material to a whole new level.
Therefore, it is no surprise that Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 is one of the most anticipated anime in the entirety of 2023. Hopefully, it will live up to the hype.
