JUJUTSU KAISEN Season 2 topped our weekly anime ranking in week 3, following an incredible episode that had both impressive animation and some touching moments. It’s the show’s second win this season, after previously topping the very first one before falling down to fourth place last week. 9,010 people voted this time, and it took 8.04% of the votes. Behind it was BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War, which was only 0.07% away! The biggest drop came from Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead, which was on top last week, while Bungo Stray Dogs 5 entered the top 10. Check out the top 10 graphic below:
The new season saw a change in director from Sunghoo Park to Shota Goshozono. It will run for 2 consecutive cours, covering the “Hidden Inventory/Premature Death” arc first before moving on to the “Shibuya Incident” arc in the second part.
Studio MAPPA animated both the 24-episode first season and movie for the franchise. Akutami Gege writes and draws the original manga, which is licensed by VIZ Media in English. Crunchyroll streams both the anime and movie, and they describe the story:
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.
