Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Overview
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 initially focused on Satoru Gojo's time in Tokyo Jujutsu High alongside Suguru Geto.
This prequel arc is known in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga as the Hidden Inventory arc.
The first five episodes of the second season elaborated on the two characters' shared past and how they parted ways.
The remaining 18 episodes of Season 2 will cover the Shibuya Incident.
The Shibuya Incident is the longest arc of the manga, and it follows the team of sorcerers, led by Yuji, as they fight a heavily orchestrated effort by curses and other powerful forces to take down those who oppose them.
Was Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1 Dubbed in English?
Yes! Jujutsu Kaisen can be streamed on Crunchyroll, where you can watch it with subtitles, as well as dubbed in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German, depending on your region.
Back in the day, Funimation was still a force to be reckoned with, and it was Funimation's anime that would be dubbed first.
As an extremely popular title, Jujutsu Kaisen got its English dub in 2020, while still ongoing, despite being on Crunchyroll and the COVID-19 pandemic.
The English dub started in November 2020, relatively soon after the show had begun airing.
Season 1 thus raised a high standard, and fans are wondering if Season 2 will have a similar dub treatment.

When Was the Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 English Dub Released?
The English dub of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 premiered on July 20, 2023, two weeks after the Japanese premiere. From there on, the English-dubbed version airs weekly.
This seems to be the current dubbing pattern for many beloved shows on Crunchyroll.
Other recent MAPPA shows such as Chainsaw Man and Hell's Paradise, which are also members of the dark trio of shounen anime, didn't debut at the exact same time as their English dubs.
In both cases, the English dub premieres took place two weeks after the shows aired in Japan. This has lately been the case for many other beloved titles.
English dub debuts with a two-week delay are often a more realistic but still relatively speedy solution compared to precise simuldubs.
Are There New English Dub Voice Actors for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2?
The English dub of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 features some exciting new additions to the cast. These include Reba Buhr (Cattleya Baudelaire from Violet Evergarden) as Riko Amanai.
Some viewers are somewhat less pleased with the addition of Kirk Thornton (Yuujirou Hanma from Hanma Baki) as the Shibuya Incident's narrator, as they feel that the vibe of the narration is different from the original.
