Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is officially debuting the highly-anticipated Shibuya arc tomorrow – so here’s how and what time you can watch it.
After a three-week-long hiatus, Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is returning with new episodes covering the Shibuya Incident arc from the manga. The most tragic arc of the series will be featured in 18 episodes.
Jujutsu Kaisen dropped a new trailer and key visual last week, revealing the upcoming arc’s first look. Fans are in for a roller coaster of emotions, as the trailer features the intensity of the battles going on in Shibuya.
With better animation, new character design, and a hardcore soundtrack, Jujutsu Kaisen will be better than ever in its upcoming episodes. Here’s how and when you can watch Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Shibuya arc.

Where to watch Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Shibuya arc
The upcoming episodes will be officially available on Crunchyroll and Netflix at the same time.
However, we do recommend anime enthusiasts to stream the series on Crunchyroll. While both are top streaming platforms, Crunchyroll subs are more faithful to the original source.
On the other hand, Netflix subs often change dialogues. Last month, Netflix changed Gojo’s “honored one” scene as fans pointed out their disappointment toward the streaming giant ruining such an important moment. There have been several more notable changes apart from Gojo’s iconic scene.

Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2’s Shibuya arc trailer begins with Pseudo-Geto, who reveals his plans for cornering Gojo in Shibuya. Since the new season has a completely different art style than before, fans also get to see the new character designs.
It also features the opening theme, ‘SPECIALZ,’ performed by King Gnu. The J-pop group is already popular within the fandom for their two songs in the prequel movies. The song matches perfectly with the intensity of the arc as Shibuya becomes a warzone.
How to watch Crunchyroll from outside your location in 2023?
Crunchyroll is the world’s best hub for streaming anime, whether it’s One Piece, Attack on Titan, or Jujutsu Kaisen – and thanks to ExpressVPN, you can access the platform’s full library even if you’re outside the US.
If you’re abroad, here’s what you need to do to access Crunchyroll’s full selection – and it really is this simple:
- Sign up for ExpressVPN, which has ultra-fast servers and offers a secure, private connection wherever you are in the world
- Connect to a location anywhere in the US; Express VPN allows you to choose from 24 different spots, from New Jersey to Santa Monica
- Visit Crunchyroll online and start streaming all of your favorite animes – and perhaps some you’ve never watched
Accessing Crunchyroll’s US roster makes a difference. For example, Hong Kong users only have access to less than 100 titles, while the US has nearly 1,000 movies and TV shows.
You can also stream anime on Crunchyroll for free with an ad-supported plan, or you can pay for a subscription – there’s even a 14-day free trial if you can’t quite make up your mind.
