Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 will start airing worldwide on July 6, 2023 and will adapt Gojo’s Past arc.

The story revolves around the two being tasked with escorting the Star Plasma Vessel to Master Tengen while devious curse user groups attempts to disrupt their plans.
Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 cast reveals voice actors for characters from Gojo’s Past
Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 will be adapting Gojo’s Past arc from the manga which will give rise to several new characters and plot points. One minor character from the arc who plays a pivotal role is Shiu Kong. Fans of the manga may already know that Shiu Kong is a handler for the Time Vessel Association and the one who contracted Toji Fushiguro, an infamous assassin, to kill the Star Plasma Vessel.
Hiroki Yasumoto, known for his role in Bleach as Yasutora Sado(Chad), has been cast as the voice actor for Shiu. The announcement was well-received by fans as the character seems perfect to be voiced by Yasumoto with his deep and mellow voice.
A likeness can be drawn between Chad and Shiu as they both are men of few words who remain calm even in dire situations. One could even argue that Hiroki’s role as Shiu will prove to be considerably better than Chad from Bleach.
Additionally, the leak also revealed the voice actor for yet another character from Gojo’s Past arc. Misato Kuroi is a supporting character who’ll be making her debut in Jujutsu Kaisen season 2, and is the caretaker of the Star Plasma Vessel. Misato will be voiced by Risa Shimizu who also played Lynne, a member of the Scout Regiment in Attack on Titan.
