Jujutsu Kaisen 0 hit Japanese movie theaters in 2021 before landing on US screens in March 2022, but you’re probably ready to watch the prequel film at home.
Anime fans will have to wait until next year for the new season of the TV series, but the movie makes its North America streaming debut Wednesday on Crunchyroll.
Produced by Mappa Studios and Toho Animation, the film is based on Gege Akutami’s manga series and follows Yuta Okkotsu, a young high school student who’s cursed. After his friend Rika Orimoto dies, Yuta is haunted by her spirit and grapples with the grief and loneliness. His path leads him to sorcery as a way to control Rika, whose presence often saves him or puts him in precarious situations.
Jujutsu Kaisen 0 isn’t the only film found on Crunchyroll this month. The streaming service also announced the addition of a new movie each Thursday during September. Titles include The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (Sept. 15), Black Butler: Book of the Atlantic (Sept. 15) and High Speed! Free! Starting Days (Sept. 22). Movies starring Haru and Rin from Free! Timeless Medley, including The Bond, The Promise and Road to the World: The Dream, will stream on Sept. 22. Fans can also check out Code Geass films on Sept. 29.
Crunchyroll subscriptions range from $8 to $15 per month, following a 14-day free trial.
