The first trailer for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2's Shibuya Incident arc has finally been released, and it brings fans back into the present day after a brief trip into Satoru Gojo's past. Not surprisingly, it offered a glimpse at the returning characters who have been working with Suguru Geto. Amazingly, the new anime trailer confirmed that Choso is getting a makeover and will be getting a major glow-up in the second season.
Introduced in the first season of Jujutsu Kaisen, Choso serves as the vessel of a cursed relic dating back 150 years. He stands as the eldest among the nine cursed spirit siblings born to a human mother. Choso carries the weight of his seniority with utmost dedication and holds a profound affection for his younger brothers. His sense of responsibility as the eldest sibling is a core aspect of his character, reflecting his deep commitment to the family's well-being and his unwavering love for his siblings.
But now that two of his siblings are dead, Choso has allied himself with Suguru Geto and will play a significant role in the anime's second season. In the trailer, we get a glimpse at Choso facing off against Yuji Itadori, and fans are pleased that Studio MAPPA has improved on the Vessel's design.
For anime-only viewers, we won't spoil what happens to Choso in the Shibuya Incident arc. However, it is safe to say that his fight against Yuji is something to look forward to next month.
