Yuta’s primary aim is to hone his supernatural potential and find a way to exorcise Rika so he can have a normal life. But his presence in the Sorcerer world has caught the attention of Suguru Geto (Takahiro Sakurai/Lex Lang), and it’ll soon fall to Yuta and his friends — Maki Zen’in (Mikako Komatsu/Allegra Clark), Toge Inumaki (Koki Uchiyama/Xander Mobus), and Panda (Tomokazu Seki/Matthew David Rudd), all three of whom are in Kaisen proper — to save Tokyo from being destroyed by Curses. Just like the original anime, the film’s being animated by Studio MAPPA, and will have some incredible fight scenes to go along with the emotional proclamations about wanting to live a full life.
Akutami originally created Yuta and company in 2017, under the serialized miniseries originally titled Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School. The positive reception to that story inspired him to continue the universe with the primary Jujutsu Kaisen. Kaisen 0’s characters were brought over to the main story over time, with Yuta having been fairly recently inserted into the adventures of Yuji, Fushiguro, and Kugisaki. Having seen the film, we can confirm that Yuta’s a great addition to Yuji’s world, and the movie will more than make you excited for him to show up when season two hits next year.
Jujutsu Kaisen 0 will release in theaters, both sub and dubbed, on March 18. Look for our review closer to the film’s release.
