Shueisha has published 27 compiled book volumes, with the latest volume released on July 5. In addition to print, Viz Media is offering the manga both digitally and in print, while Shueisha’s Manga Plus service is also making the series available digitally.
Anime Adaptations and Continuation
The manga’s success led to an anime adaptation that premiered in October 2020, consisting of 24 episodes. Following that, the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 anime film premiered in Japan in December 2021 and was later released in the U.S. and Canada in March 2022. The second season of the anime aired in July 2023, running continuously for two cours (quarters of a year), and was streamed by Crunchyroll with English subs and dubs.
