Jujutsu Kaisen season 2’s Shibuya Incident arc is set to begin on Thursday, August 31, 2023, at 11:56 pm JST. After Sajin Komamura’s sacrifice to defeat Bambietta Basterbine last week, fans aren’t sure what to expect from the next fight. In fact, many are now worried that each Gotei 13 Captain will need to make some sort of ultimate sacrifice to actually get a win.

Unfortunately, there is no verifiable spoiler information for Jujutsu Kaisen season 2’s Shibuya Incident arc right now. This is to be expected, as anime series with such standing rarely see leaks occur. Thankfully, what fans do have is confirmed release information for the episode.

Follow along as this article fully breaks down all currently available release information for Jujutsu Kaisen season 2’s Shibuya Incident arc.

Release date and time, where to watch

Jujutsu Kaisen season 2’s Shibuya Incident arc will begin airing on local Japanese networks at 11:56 pm JST on Thursday, August 31, 2023. A select few international regions will see the episode arrive in the early morning hours of Friday, September 1, 2023. A majority of territories will share the Thursday, August 31 calendar premiere date. The exact time of release varies by region and timezone.

International audiences can stream the episode on Crunchyroll following a short delay from when it finishes airing in Japan.

India and other Southeast Asian countries will see Netflix host the series for streaming. In addition to Netflix, India (as well as Thailand) will see the episode be made available on Ani-One Asia’s YouTube channel. However, this seems to require a subscription to the YouTube channel.

BiliBili has acquired Chinese broadcasting rights for the series, meaning those in Chinese territories can stream it there.

At the time of this article’s writing, these appear to be the only international streaming options for the series.
