Fans of Jujutsu Kaisen are excited to not only welcome their favourite protagonists but also some great antagonists. The anime's villains are some of the most unique characters in shonen anime right now, which makes them stand out from the rest.
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 (呪術廻戦 or Sorcery Fight) premiered on July 7, 2023. Written and illustrated by Gege Akutami, the show is directed by Sunghoo Park and is animated under MAPPA Studio.
With Sayaka Koiso and Tadashi Hiramatsu designing the characters, Yoshimasa Terui is the sole composer of the series. Licensed under Crunchyroll, the episodes will be available with English subtitles, and the dubbed version will be released later on.
The anime is scheduled for two cours, the first five episodes will adapt the manga’s Hidden Inventory arc, and the eighteen other episodes will showcase the Shibuya Incident arc.
Hanami is an unregistered special grade spirit aligned with Mahito’s group. What makes Hanami one of the most powerful antagonists is his incredible durability, enhanced speed and strength. Moreover, he has a hidden presence which makes him different from other cursed spirits.
Choso is an incarnated Death Painting Womb, who is a half-cursed spirit and half-human. Choso is a blood manipulator, who is able to convert his curse energy into blood and is able to manipulate it. However, he does not have the weakness of losing blood like other shamans and cannot die of blood loss.
Jogo might be one of the most powerful special-grade cursed spirits. During a conversation with Geto, it is revealed that he is as powerful as Sukuna’s 7-8 fingers. While Jogo proved no match for overwhelming powers like Satoru Gojo and Sukuna, he still far outclassed even the most talented sorcerers and other special-grade curses.
Known as the Sorcerer Killer, Toji was one of the best fighters in the history of jujutsu, even though he wasn’t a curse user and lacked any natural skill for the art. Toji competed against the most deadly and skilled jujutsu practitioners this era had to offer, his intrinsic physical power much superior to all others in his path.
