Jujutsu Kaisen is poised for a highly anticipated return. It has been a while since we last saw Gojo Satoru on our screens. With the success of Jujutsu Kaisen 0, MAPPA has been diligently working on the second season, and it is set to debut soon. To add to the excitement, Jujutsu Kaisen has unveiled a special live-action project that will immerse fans in Gojo's world.
The news comes directly from the official Jujutsu Kaisen Twitter account. The anime series took to social media to announce that an overseas production team is currently working on a special promotional endeavor. The team is creating a live-action TV commercial to commemorate the release of Jujutsu Kaisen volume 23 and the recent milestone of manga sales.

コミックス23巻発売+累計発行部数8,000万部突破を記念して、実写映像が7/5（水）19時放送の「劇場版 呪術廻戦 0」内にて放送されます。

And what is that noteworthy milestone, you might ask? It's quite impressive, to say the least. Jujutsu Kaisen has surpassed the 80 million copies sold mark, placing it ahead of popular titles like Fairy Tail, Tokyo Revengers, and even Berserk. With its current trajectory, Jujutsu Kaisen is on par with manga series such as Fullmetal Alchemist, and it is steadily gaining ground on heavyweights like My Hero Academia and Hunter x Hunter, among others.
This live-action promo is a cause for celebration in its own right, but it also marks a significant first. Jujutsu Kaisen has yet to venture into the realm of live-action films. While this promo may simply recreate scenes from the Jujutsu Kaisen manga, there remains a possibility that a fortunate actor may have the opportunity to bring characters like Megumi or Nobara to life. For now, fans will eagerly await the unveiling of this promo, curious to see what it will bring.
Are you up to date with Jujutsu Kaisen? If not, don't worry! You can stream the entire first season on Crunchyroll. And for those eagerly following the second season, it is currently ongoing, having started on July 5th. Jujutsu Kaisen is back with new episodes for fans to enjoy. If you're looking for more information about the series, you can find the current official synopsis below:
"For some strange reason, Yuji Itadori, despite his insane athleticism would rather just hang out with the Occult Club. However, her soon finds out that the occult is as real as it gets when his fellow club members are attacked! Meanwhile, the mysterious Megumi Fushiguro is tracking down a special-grade cursed object, and his search leads him to Itadori..."
