Reader’s Question:
I’ve recently started watching Jujutsu Kaisen, but I feel like I’m missing a lot between Season 1, Episode 24, and Season 2, Episode 25. If I remember correctly, Satoru Gojo was a teacher in Season 1, but in Season 2, he seems to be a student? Also, wasn’t Suguru
Geto on the enemy side? Yet in Season 2, he appears to be on the side of the allies. What’s going on? Is there something like Episode 24.1 that I might have missed? I don’t know much about Jujutsu Kaisen beyond what I’ve seen in the anime, so any clarification would be really helpful.
Understanding the Timeline of Jujutsu Kaisen
Ah, Jujutsu Kaisen! What a thrilling ride it has been, right? I remember the first time I dove into this world of curses and sorcery; it felt like I was embarking on a grand adventure, filled with twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat. But I totally get where you’re coming from with your confusion about the timeline between Season 1 and Season 2. It’s a bit of a puzzle, isn’t it?
Connecting the Dots
So, here’s the scoop: the timeline of Jujutsu Kaisen isn’t as straightforward as it might seem at first glance. It actually unfolds in a non-linear fashion, which can be a bit dizzying if you’re not prepared for it. The sequence goes like this: 1. Season 2 – Gojo’s Past Arc 2. Jujutsu Kaisen 0 (the movie) 3. Season 1 4. Season 2 – Shibuya Incident Arc In simple terms, the past events featuring Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto are explored first in Season 2. This is where we see their relationship before things went awry, which ultimately leads to Geto going dark. It’s fascinating to see Gojo in a different light, and you might find it amusing how he balances being a powerful sorcerer with those more vulnerable moments. Then we jump to Jujutsu Kaisen 0, which introduces us to Okkotsu and the circumstances that set the stage for the main series. This movie serves as a prequel of sorts, giving depth to the lore and characters before we meet Yuji Itadori in Season 1. When you finally hit Season 1, you’re thrown into the present-day chaos with Yuji and his friends. It’s like meeting a whole new cast after learning about the legends of the past.
Moments of Surprise and Reflection
I vividly remember the moment I realized how intertwined these characters’ stories are. Watching Gojo transition from a student to a mentor was both heartwarming and a tad bittersweet. And Geto—oh boy, his character development is a rollercoaster! I often found myself grinning at the unexpected humor interspersed throughout the series, even during the darker moments. One of the funniest interactions I can recall is when Gojo, in all his confident glory, tries to get the students to pay attention in class. His over-the-top antics—like pretending to be a serious teacher while still being the coolest guy in the room—are just classic!
