New Jujutsu Kaisen Movie Makes Big Change to Geto

by

The highly anticipated movie adaptation of “Jujutsu Kaisen,” titled “JUJUTSU KAISEN: Hidden Inventory / Premature Death – The Movie,” is set to hit theaters later this month. This film delves into the backstory of characters Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto, offering a different take compared to the anime’s portrayal of their past during Season 2. Notably, this movie is a compilation film that adapts the arc from “Jujutsu Kaisen” Season 2, providing glimpses into Gojo and Geto’s history prior to the main series events. The new film will incorporate previously unseen materials as well as altering the original storyline in some ways.

At Anime Expo 2025, Jujutsu Kaisen was among the anime series that showcased upcoming developments, hinting at modifications in its forthcoming movie. Unlike the movie’s compilation of episodes from the initial weeks of Season 2, the creators suggested that certain alterations made for the film significantly impact the narrative flow. One such change involves revealing Suguru Geto’s true perspective on humanity before any of the arc’s sorrowful events unfold, as opposed to the original timeline.

Jujutsu Kaisen’s New Movie Changes Geto’s Confession

During the Anime Expo 2025 panel for Jujutsu Kaisen (where ComicBook was present), Takahiro Sakurai, who voices Suguru Geto, shared a unique update about the movie. He mentioned that one significant alteration in the film is the rearrangement of when fans witness Geto’s true emotions towards humanity. Originally appearing later in the anime, this confession has been moved to an earlier stage in the film’s arc, a change that Sakurai feels results in a smoother narrative flow overall. This idea was also supported by Yuichi Nakamura, who voices Satoru Gojo.

Nakamura playfully hinted that the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen film is designed to be an independent story, making it a perfect starting point for anime enthusiasts who haven’t watched the series yet. Additionally, those who are already familiar with the episodes will appreciate how smoothly the movie compiles them together, offering a unique and fresh viewing experience. Moreover, the new elements added by the series creator Gege Akutami enhance the overall film experience even further.

When Does Jujutsu Kaisen’s New Movie Come Out?

Jujutsu Kaisen: Concealed Arsenal / Unpremeditated Demise – The Film” is now playing in theaters all over Japan, and GKIDS will unveil this new movie in theaters across the United States and Canada on July 16th. The film offers both Japanese and English dubbed audio versions, along with a brand-new acoustic rendition of Tatsuya Kitani’s “Where Our Blue Is,” which was previously heard as the opening theme during Season 2 of Jujutsu Kaisen. As for what to anticipate from this new movie, GKIDS hints at JUJUTSU KAISEN: Hidden Inventory / Premature Death – The Movie like so:

Initially, Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto were classmates and friends at high school. Later on, they became formidable sorcerers. Their current assignment is to safeguard Riko Amanai, a student chosen as the Star Plasma Vessel, until she can carry out her duty. Pursued by a religious group and other curse users, they are the only sorcerers capable of executing this challenging task. This mission will significantly impact their destinies and test these sorcerers in ways beyond their imagination.
