The new promotional art features Yuji Itadori , Megumi Fushiguro , and Yuta Okkotsu , hinting at the reunion of iconic characters amidst a backdrop of pure spiritual destruction.
Chaos after Shibuya: the beginning of the Killing Game
Following the catastrophic events of the Shibuya Incident , Japan is plunged into chaos. Ten colonies become cursed zones in a plan orchestrated by the wicked Noritoshi Kamo . In this scenario, Special Grade sorcerer Yuta Okkotsu is tasked with executing Yuji Itadori , accused of causing the horrors during the conflict.
But what begins as a hunt soon transforms into a brutal tournament between sorcerers. The Game of Slaughter challenges each participant to fight for survival using their jujutsu techniques — a true battle for life and redemption.
The film “Jujutsu Kaisen: Execution” sets the stage.
Before the new season premieres, fans can check out “Jujutsu Kaisen: Execution ,” which arrives in Brazilian cinemas on November 20th . The film presents a cinematic summary of the Shibuya Incident and includes the first two episodes of season 3 —an exclusive preview of what's to come.
The film has already been released in Japan and is being distributed internationally by Sony Pictures and Crunchyroll , following the global success of productions such as Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle and Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc .
