As we gear up for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 8, let’s dive into what we can expect from this upcoming instalment. Episode 7 left us hanging midway through Chapter 83 of the JJK manga, and the real excitement is just around the corner.

  • Episode 8 will pick up where we left off, covering the rest of Chapter 83 and potentially extending all the way to Chapter 86. This marks the start of the Shibuya Arc battles, and we promise it will be nothing short of epic.
  • Gojo will take on not one, but three formidable foes – Jogo, Hanami, and Choso – in the depths of an underground metro station. Expect plenty of intense battles as Gojo once again shows us why he’s considered the strongest sorcerer in history.
  • If we’re lucky, we might also see our boy Yuji back in action. Depending on how much of the manga MAPPA managed to pack into this episode, it might even wrap up with Mei Mei and Yuji on a mission to uncover the identity of the curtain’s caster.

So, get ready for an action-packed episode as the Shibuya Arc kicks off in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 8.

Conclusion:
