Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 recap episode 1: Exact release time and where to watch

Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 recap episode 1 is set to release on August 10, 2023, at 11:56 pm JST. The anime series has entered hiatus, and the Shibuya Incident arc is set to resume on August 31, 2023.

There are three weeks until the first episode of the highly anticipated Shibuya Incident arc comes out. In the meantime, viewers in Japan can watch the broadcast of two recap episodes - one that covers the events shown in Jujutsu Kaisen 0 and the other that covers the events shown in season 1 of the anime series.

Furthermore, the series will not broadcast anything on the third week, that is, on August 24, 2023, and a translation of the official news release on their website revealed that it was for "programming reasons." While the message is rather cryptic, fans have reasons to believe that the break could be for maintenance purposes in order to ensure a smooth run of the Shibuya Incident arc.
