In a new press release, it was revealed that Crunchyroll will be bringing Jujutsu Kaisen 0 to the United States, and Canada on March 18th, (including IMAX® in the U.S.), with tickets set to go on sale on February 25th.
It was also announced that JUJUTSU KAISEN 0 will arrive in the U.K., Ireland, France, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Austria, Switzerland, Sweden, Finland, Netherlands, French-speaking Africa, Latin America, and additional territories at a later date.
Adapted from the prequel manga by Gege Akutami, 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. Since Rika is no ordinary Curse, his plight is noticed by Satoru Gojo, a teacher at Jujutsu High, a school where fledgling exorcists learn how to combat Curses. Gojo convinces Yuta to enroll, but can he learn enough in time to confront the Curse that haunts him?
Directed by Sunghoo Park at studio MAPPA, JUJUTSU KAISEN 0 continues to be a box office juggernaut in Japan, taking home an estimated 9.31 billion yen (U.S. $81.6 million) at the time of writing to enter the country’s top 50 highest-earning films of all time. The first season is currently available on Crunchyroll and Funimation.
