61 h. ago Jujutsu Kaisen: Execution review – spectacular if baffling anime is out to thrill and bewilder

Remix of old and new material from TV series includes tremendous battle sequences but there’s an awful lot of lore for new viewers to catch up withHere’s an unusual proposition: a film that opens with a kind of super-edit, cutting together chunks culled from many hours’ worth of plot and spectacle from the Jujutsu Kaisen TV series, which is then followed by some all-new episodes of the TV series; playing together in full as a movie, in the cinema.

It really hits a nerveWe could be happy together, if only we weren’t here and it wasn’t now: the tragedy of sweethearts caught up in conflict, their love overcome by others’ hate, is an old and powerful story.
