Needless to say, the Shibuya Incident Arc of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 was one of the biggest anime spectacles of 2023. Where the arc's original run in Gege Akutami's manga had already revolutionized the landscape of contemporary battle shonen, the anime retelling produced by MAPPA Studio completely changed the game. However, aside from its frenetic pace, high stakes, immersive stylized fight sequences, and jaw-dropping animation, the Shibuya Incident Arc is also a critical turning point in Jujutsu Kaisen's story.
