It is based on the manga series Jujutsu Kaisen 0, which is itself a prequel to the Jujutsu Kaisen manga series, both manga series having been created by Gege Akutami.

Medialink licensed the film to be shown in Southeast Asia, China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and India; that company itself handled the distribution in Chinese-speaking areas, [67] while Purple Plan handled the distribution for most parts of Southeast Asia. As a result, Sakata said that Jujutsu Kaisen 0, and by extension the sequel, feel like modernized version of Japanese myths, comparing Yuta and Rika to the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba protagonists Tanjiro Kamado and Nezuko Kamado, respectively, as the duo aims to control the oni element present in the story. About 15,000 people watched the film at the earliest public screenings on 58 screens at midnight on the opening day.Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 0 aims to correct this mistake by showing Shoko struggling to keep up with the damage done to the jujutsu world by the Night Parade of 100 Demons. Yuta meets fellow students Maki Zen'in, Toge Inumaki, and Panda, all with distinct abilities of their own.

If this manga-exclusive quote is true, Yuta and Rika are even more overpowered than fans have given him credit for. 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. The less extreme personality of the main character, great music choice, and fluid animation make even the slow scenes feel meaningful. In a post-credits scene, Geto's former ally Miguel eats lunch with Yuta in Kenya, and Gojo comes to join them.

This is a nice twist, and feels like a sort of gotcha moment, after all, had the higher-ups executed Yuta they never would’ve discovered how much potential he has. Fortunately, there exists a mysterious school of jujutsu sorcerers who exist to protect the precarious existence of the living from the supernatural! The manga, which was originally titled Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School, [b] was serialized in Shueisha's magazine Jump Giga from April to July 2017.

He said, however, he was not sure about the possibility of properly connecting the beginning with the ending.The figure's box came in great shape, allowing it to be added to the collector's value of the figure.

McKee saw Yuta's story as a coming-of-age story, due to his need to control Rika while making friends. In a world where cursed spirits feed on unsuspecting humans, fragments of the legendary and feared demon Ryomen Sukuna were lost and scattered about. His nomadic lifestyle makes it difficult to pin him down, but his affinity with technology makes it easy for an audience to stay in touch! Gojo convinces Yuta to enroll, but can he learn enough in time to confront the curse that haunts him?Satoru Gojo spends the majority of his time in the new film sticking his neck out for his new student, but when an army of cursed spirits is unleashed on Japan, he steps up to face a powerful foreign sorcerer named Miguel.
