The Jujutsu Kaisen stage series will return this November with Butai Jujutsu Kaisen: Shibuya Jihen Zenpen, the first half of a theatrical adaptation of the manga’s Shibuya Incident arc. Performances will run at Shibuya LOVEZ in Tokyo from November 14–23, followed by shows at Sky Theater MBS in Osaka on November 28–29.
Returning cast members include Ryūji Satō as Yuji Itadori, Kazuaki Yasue as Megumi Fushiguro and Nonoka Yamaguchi as Nobara Kugisaki. New additions include Mondo Yamagishi as Jogo and Yūki Kamisato as Mahito, alongside several characters making their stage debut.

The production gives audiences in Japan another way to experience one of Jujutsu Kaisen’s largest story arcs, although no livestream, recorded release or international presentation has been announced.
