Jujutsu Kaisen’s second season quickly gained a massive audience despite having only 5 episodes in the first cour. The Hidden Inventory/ Premature Death arc ended last week with the fifth episodes. And next, Toho Animation will adapt one of the best JJK arcs — the Shibuya Incident arc – for the season’s second cour. Anime viewers have previously been teased about this occurrence in season 1, whereas manga readers are fully aware of what the second cour of the second season has in store for us. So, keep reading to discover the release date and time of episode 6 of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2.

Jujutsu Kaisen Shibuya Incident Arc Release Date and Time

Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is confirmed to have a total of 23 episodes. This season is split into two cours to release the anime adaptation of two of the best arcs in JJK. The first cour features the Hidden Inventory/ Premature Death arc, which just ended with a total of 5 episodes. Also known as Gojo’s Past arc, we saw him dreaming about his past. It includes the battle between Gojo and Toji Fushiguro as well as how Gojo and Geto’s friendship ended, and they went in different directions. The first cour concluded with him waking up and returning to the present with his student triio – Yuji, Megumi, and Nobara.

Ever since then, fans are eagerly waiting to witness the start of another mindblowing arc, the Shibuya Incident arc. This arc will start from episode 6 of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2, which will be released on August 31, 2023. The release time for episode 6 is 1:00 AM JST. The second cour will span over a period of 4+ months as it will run from episodes 6 to 23 weekly.

Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2: A Month-Long Break with Fillers

As you might have noticed, JJK season 2 episode 5 aired on August 3, 2023. In line with that, the 6th episode should have been scheduled to release on August 10, 2023. Instead, season 2 will continue on August 31, 2023.

If you are wondering why such a big break in between the two cours, I have the answer for you. The staff has decided to show us a recap of Season 2’s first cour as well as Season 1 in the upcoming weeks. There is also another break on 24th August, where the latest episode won’t be available to stream as there is another special program airing in Japan. Thus, here is what Jujutsu Kaisen season 2’s streaming schedule looks like:

Basically, we have to wait until the last date of this month to see the return of the latest season’s second cour. In the meantime, we can also enjoy the recaps and stay up to date with the manga. There is an important fight currently ongoing in the manga [SPOILERS].
