Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode Guide: Release Date and Times
The first season of Jujutsu Kaisen was released way back in 2020. Even though we got the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 movie in 2021, fans have since been waiting for Jujutsu Kaisen season 2. Why, you ask? It is because one of the greatest JJK arcs will be adapted in the latest season, and as a manga reader, I can confirm that it will blow your mind. After waiting for years, we are finally getting a new season and have officially learned the streaming date and time of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2. So read on to find out where and when you can start streaming the newest season of Jujutsu Kaisen.
When Is Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Coming Out?Season 2 is the latest addition to the Jujutsu Kaisen series, which was confirmed to be airing this July initially. Now we have got ourselves a confirmed release date along with the confirmation on the streaming platform. As announced via an official tweet, Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 will begin streaming on July 6 (Thursday) and is broken up into two consecutive cours.
Since Crunchyroll recently acquired the rights to Jujutsu Kaisen, it is now confirmed that the anime-streaming giant Crunchyroll will host the new season. But it is expected that Netflix will also simulcast JJK Season 2 in some locations, along with Crunchyroll, from July 6 (but it has not been confirmed yet).
Regarding the release timings, we also have got confirmed details about when Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 will be available to stream on July 6 across the world. Here are the streaming times for JJK Season 2:
Japan – 02:00 a.m. (JST) Brazil – 02:00 p.m. (BRT) U.S.A – 12:00 p.m. (CDT) India – 10:30 p.m. (IST) France – 07:00 p.m. (CEST) Philippines – 01:00 a.m. (PT) UK – 06:00 p.m.(BST) South Africa – 07:00 p.m. (SAST) Australia – 03:00 a.m. (AEST) Russia – 08:00 p.m. (MST)Now that you know the release timing for your location. Get ready to witness the peak of Jujutsu Kaisen with a little taste of Gojo’s past and the much-awaited Shibuya arc. The two cours of Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 will focus on two major arcs and recaps as follows:

The broadcast schedule for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is as follows:

During this break, we will get recaps for the first two weeks, and during the third week (24th August 2023), there is another special program in Japan. Therefore, no new episode will air during that week. Therefore, there is a three weeks break in between the first and second cours. But no worries, as we will be able to witness the Shibuya Incident arc right after.
Note: We have only mentioned the released dates based on the official information we got until now. If things don’t change, the remaining episodes after episode 6 will continue to air weekly without any breaks. We will update them once we get the latest confirmation from the team behind JJK.
Where to Stream Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2?As of right now, only Crunchyroll is confirmed to stream the second season of Jujutsu Kaisen. As a result, users of other streaming services such as Netflix, Disney Plus, and others will have to wait for an official announcement.
Other than Crunchyroll, we don’t know if other streaming platforms will simulcast the upcoming season or not. Since Netflix currently has Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1 in its repertoire, we expect to see the simulcast there once more, as Netflix has been hosting all of the latest anime such as Demon Slayer Season 3, Hell’s Paradise Season 1, and many more. But Crunchyroll is without a doubt the only platform where you can watch Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 legally and officially.
Where to Watch Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 in India?For my fellow Indian fans, just like you, we are left to wonder where the latest JJK season will be available to stream. Among Crunchyroll’s summer lineup, Jujutsu Kaisen was present and will be ready to stream on day 1. But there is a massive issue, as India was left off the list of countries to get Jujutsu Kaisen season 2.
Yes! India hasn’t been mentioned under the subcontinent list for JJK Season 2 simulcast. So, it seems like Indian JJK fans will have to wait a little longer to know where we can stream the new season legally. I hope Netflix will simulcast as they have been streaming all the popular anime lately.
