Previously, the first JUJUTSU KAISEN movie hit theaters to adapt the JUJUTSU KAISEN 0 prequel manga. JUJUTSU KAISEN Season 2 premiered on July 6, 2023 and had Shouta Goshozono taking over as director at MAPPA. The new compilation film opens in Japan on May 30.
Here’s how GKIDS describes the Hidden Inventory / Premature Death movie:
Before they were enemies, Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto were high school classmates and friends. The two powerful sorcerers are tasked with protecting Riko Amanai, a student who has been designated to be sacrificed as the Star Plasma Vessel, until she can fulfill her duty. Pursued by a religious cult and other curse users, they are the only sorcerers capable of carrying out such a difficult task – but this mission will set their destinies, and challenge the two sorcerers in ways unimaginable. The beloved and deeply emotional “Hidden Inventory / Premature Death” arc from the global phenomenon JUJUTSU KAISEN returns to the big screen, reaching all new heights for fans and newcomers alike.
