Where Did Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 End?
In its second season, Jujutsu Kaisen animated two pivotal story arcs: the Gojo’s Past Arc and the Shibuya Incident Arc. The Gojo’s Past Arc spanned fourteen chapters, encompassing chapters 55 to 79. Meanwhile, the Shibuya Incident Arc stretched across fifty-seven chapters, spanning chapters 79 to 136.
In Gojo’s Past Arc, here’s how the story unfolded. In 2006, Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto embarked on a mission to save a girl, Riko, who is essential to protecting the world. They face off against powerful foes aiming to stop them. They protect Riko but face a tragedy as the girl is killed. This loss deeply affects Suguru, leading him down a darker path. He struggles with the duty of a Sorcerer and his disdain for non-sorcerers.
Gojo’s Past Arc was adopted in the first five episodes of the second season, after which we saw the adaptation of Shibuya Incident Arc. The Shibuya Incident Arc shook things up big time! It started with a big plan to seal Gojo, the powerhouse Sorcerer, a plan made by Kenjaku and the other Curses. Executing the plan, Cursed Spirits attacked Shibuya, finally sealing Gojo. Nobara, Nanami, and many other skilled fighters faced tragic fates. Things got wilder when Sukuna, the fearsome Curse, showed up, engaging in intense battles with Jogo and Mahoraga.
To set the stage for the upcoming season three, the finale episode also covered one chapter of the Itadori Extermination Arc (Chapter 137 - Hard and White), where we saw Yuta Okkotsu making his return and planning to kill Yuji Itadori.
