Every new episode of Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 has been eagerly anticipated by anime fans around the world. Here’s a comprehensive look at Episode 9 and its release, including where to watch it, what we can expect, etc.
Episode 9 Release date for Episode
The NBS/TBS Channel will debut Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 episode 9 at 12:01 AM JST, Friday September 22, 2023. The episode will be available on multiple platforms outside Japan after a two-hour delay.
Where can fans stream the new episode?
Crunchyroll will soon be able to stream the episode once it has been broadcast on NBS/TBS Japan. This will cater to fans across North America and Europe. Crunchyroll, however, is not the only place to watch this highly anticipated episode. Netflix is the preferred streaming service for Indian and Southeast Asian fans.
Bilibili has the rights to broadcast the episode in China, where it is available for the vast audience of anime fans. Fans in India and Thailand can also watch the episode via Ani-One Asia’s YouTube channel. Note that most of these platforms require a subscription to view the show uninterrupted.
Episode 8 Highlights
The Shibuya arc was intensified in the previous episode titled “The Shibuya Incident”. Gojo, one of the main characters, was seen descending to the B5F station level. He faces Jogo, Hanami and Choso. In an effort to stop Gojo, these adversaries trapped him by placing a mystic drape around B5F. This prevented other Jujutsu Sorcerers from entering or leaving.
Yuji unveiled this curtain’s intricate details, along with Mei Mei and Ui Ui. Yuji showed his prowess in the episode as he took on a grasshopper curse known as Ko-Guy. Yuji defeats his adversary and also gets to know the mysterious Mahito by the end of the episode.
Episode 9 Predictions and Anticipations
The next episode, entitled “Shibuya Incident Opening”, is a continuation of the Shibuya storyline. MAPPA will add its unique touch to the narrative known for its non-linear and fractured storytelling.
It is believed that the episode will shift the focus back to Shibuya and specifically on the intense battles along the Fukutoshin Line. It’s unlikely that we’ll be seeing significant contributions from any other characters this episode, as the series has mainly focused on Yuji and Gojo up until chapter 90. Even so, there are murmurs that suggest a character thought to have been lost forever is making a comeback.
According to the previews available, Episode 9 will highlight one of the pivotal points in the Shibuya storyline, possibly kicking off the second exciting phase.
Final Thoughts
Jujutsu Kaisen continues to fascinate audiences around the world with its captivating battles and multi-layered narratives. All indications are that Episode 9 will elevate the ongoing Shibuya story arc and provide fans with another dose exhilarating storytelling and action. This episode will be a must-see for all fans, regardless of their viewing history or interest in the show.
