Jump Festa: A new Jujutsu Kaisen film is coming! Anime future confirmed with Culling Game sequel visual
The 2025 Jujutsu Kaisen anime film will bring Gojo and Geto's friendship arc alive on the big screen. Here's what we know about the series continuation so far.
On Saturday, Jump Festa 2025 opened the doors of the beloved fan convention experience with a highly coveted announcement attached to the future of the Jujutsu Kaisen anime. Confirming the continuation of the high-in-demand supernatural TV adaptation, the super stage dedicated to JJK unveiled a “super teaser visual” of the upcoming Culling Game Arc.

But that’s not all. The JJK fandom is in for another treat as the Hidden Inventory Premature Death Arc compilation film confirmation came along with its Japanese theatrical release date.

The Jujutsu Kaisen stage successfully launched the Jump Festa commotion into motion on Saturday, December 21, at 10:30 am JST. Though previously confirmed to greet the audience, Megumi Fushiguro voice actor Yuma Uchida's attendance at the event was cancelled due to health reasons.
New Jujutsu Kaisen film release date
The official Jujutsu Kaisen anime X/Twitter page released the key visuals for both the Culling Game Arc and the compilation film, which will open in Japanese theatres on May 30, 2025.
As overtly reflected in the anime film’s teaser image, the Hidden Inventory / Premature Death arc – adapted in Season 2 – follows the then-young friends Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto in school. The same season also brought alive the original manga’s infamous Shibuya Incident Arc.
Although MAPPA will continue to back the anime on the production, more details of the Culling Game sequel are yet to follow. It remains to be seen whether the following arc adaptation will be developed into an entire episodic season or another movie.

The MAPPA-produced anime's second season returned in July 2023, wrapping up the action months later in December. Shortly after the JJK Season 2 finale broadcast, official channels announced the series would continue the dark fantasy events with the Culling Game arc. The release date, staff-cast additions, or revisions are still a mystery.
Based on Gege Akutami's best-selling manga series, the Jujutsu Kaisen anime has both seasons streaming on Crunchyroll and Netflix.
Gege Akutami's address at Jump Festa
According to reliable online anime sources, an English translation of the mangaka's comments from the Japan fest read, "Thank you for reading Jujutsu Kaisen! It was only thanks to you that I was able to somehow get to the very end. For those who only watch the anime, don't worry - there's more to come.
"The anime director is a talented director. Every time I check the storyboards, I think, ‘So my manga can really be incredibly interesting!' For someone with low-esteem like me, this is a truly amazing feeling.
“I am sure that his talent goes beyond the Jujutsu Kaisen. And I am happy that I was able to entrust the work on the project to him, and I hope that in the future we will have the opportunity to share something special with you again.”
The panel also confirmed that the JJK manga final volume will feature a new 16-page epilogue with stories for four characters: Yuko Ozawa, Panda, Nobara Kugisaki, and Uraume.
Later today, the Super Red Stage, which embraced JJK officials, will also roll out updates for Rurouni Kenshin, Spy x Family, and Dragon Ball.
