posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Streaming service POPTV announced on Wednesday that it will stream the television anime of Gege Akutami's Jujutsu Kaisen manga with a Filipino dub on January 26. POPTV originally announced the streaming debut of the dub in September.
POPTV is also streaming a commercial that previews the dub.
Ani-One Asia previously aired the anime in Southeast Asia as it was airing in Japan, and it describes the anime:
In a world where demons feed on unsuspecting humans, fragments of the legendary and feared demon Ryoumen Sukuna were lost and scattered about. Should any demon consume Sukuna's body parts, the power they gain could destroy the world as we know it. Fortunately, there exists a mysterious school of Jujutsu Sorcerers who exist to protect the precarious existence of the living from the undead!
Sunghoo Park (The God of High School) directed the anime at MAPPA. Hiroshi Seko (Attack on Titan: Lost Girls, Banana Fish, Vinland Saga) wrote and supervised the scripts. Tadashi Hiramatsu (His and Her Circumstances, Yuri!!! on Ice, Parasyte -the maxim-) designed the characters. Hiroaki Tsutsumi, Yoshimasa Terui, and Arisa Okehazama composed the music.
The anime premiered in October 2020.
The Gekijō-ban Jujutsu Kaisen 0 (Jujutsu Kaisen 0 the Movie) anime film is based on Gege Akutami's Jujutsu Kaisen 0 Tokyo Toritsu Jujutsu Kōtō Senmon Gakkō (Jujutsu Kaisen 0: Tokyo Prefectural Jujutsu High School) manga prequel story. The film opened in Japan on December 24, and earned 2,694,128,150 yen (about US$23.5 million) in its first three days, and topped the box office chart for its opening weekend. The film became the 80th highest earning film in Japanese box office history after 18 days.
