It's finally October, and with that, every television outlet is celebrating with a slew of spooky specials and Halloween themed episodes and films. Even anime is getting in on the action with the perfectly timed release of the new series Jujutsu Kaisen.
Following a young man who is thrust into sorcerer school after an act of heroism causes his soul to harbor a malevolent entity that he must now work with for the greater good. The series has only released two episodes on Crunchyroll so far, but it has been met with rave reviews.
It has been announced that a special preview of the third episode of the series will be coming to the Crunchyroll Collection Youtube channel this weekend! However, the sneak peek will only be available for 24 hours! Fans can expect the clip to go live after its official debut during Japan's JUMP SPECIAL ANIME FESTA.
A brand new video of the show's ending theme has also been released, playing “LOST IN PARADISE” by ALI ft AKLO. Make sure to check it out below, and don't forget to tell us your thoughts on the clip and the series in the comments!
Hardship, regret, shame: the negative feelings that humans feel become Curses that lurk in our everyday lives. The Curses run rampant throughout the world, capable of leading people to terrible misfortune and even death. What's more, the Curses can only be exorcised by another Curse.
Yuji Itadori is a boy with tremendous physical strength, though he lives a completely ordinary high school life. One day, to save a classmate who has been attacked by Curses, he eats the finger of the Double-Faced Specter, taking the Curse into his own soul. From then on, he shares one body with the Double-Faced Specter. Guided by the most powerful of sorcerers, Gojo Satoru, Itadori is admitted to the Tokyo Prefectural Jujutsu High School, an organization that fights the Curses... and thus begins the heroic tale of a boy who became a Curse to exorcise a Curse, a life from which he could never turn back.
Episode 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen will stream for 24 hours (Sunday, October 11 at 2 AM PT to Monday, October 12) on the Crunchyroll Collection Youtube channel. The first two episodes are streaming now on Crunchyroll and air on the service every Friday!
