‘Jujutsu Kaisen’ episode 14 release date confirmed: Second cour premieres January 2021 with Kyoto Goodwill Event arc

Episode 14 will serve as the official start of “Jujutsu Kaisen” part 2, but fans will have to wait until mid-January next year for its premiere. It should be worth it, though, as the second cour will focus on the much-awaited Kyoto Goodwill Event story arc.

‘Jujutsu Kaisen’ part 2 spoilers: Yuji reunites with his friends, meets Kyoto students

The second cour of the anime adaptation is expected to highlight the Goodwill Event that will feature a series of battles between Tokyo and Kyoto’s Jujutsu High students and teachers. Some online sources indicate that “Jujutsu Kaisen” episode 14 is titled “Kyoto Sister School Exchange Event - Group Battle 0.” While this marks the start of the Goodwill Event, Kyoto and Tokyo teams will not jump immediately into action. They will be given some time to huddle up and discuss their strategies.

The start of the Goodwill Event also means Yuji will be finally reunited with Megumi and Nobara. He also has to catch up in making himself familiar with their upperclassmen, but the real challenge for the Tokyo Jujutsu High in “Jujutsu Kaisen” episode 14 is the need to quickly adjust their plans and accommodate Yuji’s surprise return.

Over at the Kyoto Jujutsu High’s meeting, their principal will give a clear instruction -- kill Sukuna’s vessel. Everyone from Kyoto, except for Aoi Todo, is on board with their principal’s directives in “Jujutsu Kaisen” episode 14. Without spoiling much about future story arcs, anime fans can expect Aoi and Yuji to become very good friends and allies once Mahito returns to wreak havoc.
