Those familiar with the series will get a kick out of seeing supporting faces fleshed out, while newcomers can safely get lost in a world that is equal parts goofy and darkly heartbreaking...

| Original Score: 16/20 | Dec 19, 2024

Jujutsu Kaisen 0 doesn’t know how much it needs to verbally explain, how much to keep simple, or when to just let the visuals do the talking, which makes the pacing of many scenes extremely awkward and uneven, in addition to just getting on my nerves.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 5, 2024

Jujutsu Kaisen 0 is one of the best action packed anime films this year. As this is a prequel to the title anime series, some characters we see here we are not familiar with but the emotional weight and foundations to well with this engaging narrative!

| Original Score: 9/10 | Dec 26, 2022

“Jujutsu Kaisen” is an excellent anime film, which continues (prequels I guess) the “legacy” of the franchise in the best way, and a title that will appeal to both fans of the original series and of shonen titles in the style of “Naruto”.

| Original Score: 7 | Dec 26, 2022

This is a superbly made anime adventure that delivers a potent cocktail of action, chills, humour and powerful emotion.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 14, 2022

MAPPA, who is praised for its quality animation, really went all out for this one.

As you might imagine, punching pandas and curse techniques can result in some explosive action and gorgeously choreographed fight scenes. Jujutsu Kaisen 0 has an abundance of both.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Dec 14, 2022

Those familiar with the show will rediscover a lot of its pleasures here, as directed by Seong-Hu Park: it shows off the same mix of fantasy horror with contemporary style and aloofness. It’s a lot of fun to look at.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 14, 2022

The prequel manages to tell a gripping standalone story that acts as an entry point for franchise newcomers while also being foundational and relevant for longtime fans of the anime.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Dec 13, 2022

Jujutsu Kaisen 0 is accessible even to those new to the franchise—and its predictability is pleasingly colored by countless icky-fun, yokai-inspired curse-monsters.

It is a raw and exhilarating watch and it definitely made me want to check out the show for the action alone. If you are open to anime give it a shot.

The anime magic continues with this dramatic and gloriously animated story of good vs evil.

Dazzling in both character development and animation.

| Original Score: 3.5 | Apr 2, 2022

Jujutsu Kaisen 0 straddles an interesting divide. Its an accessible entry point for people unfamiliar with the main Jujutsu Kaisen series, but its also a film that only existing fans will fully appreciate.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Mar 31, 2022
