Jujutsu Kaisen may have already finished its main manga run, but the franchise clearly has no plans to slow down. While fans wait for the anime to return with Season 4, Crunchyroll has confirmed a new collaboration built around fitness, and the mobile game Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade has dropped fresh summer-style visuals for its anniversary celebration.
The new collab pairs Jujutsu Kaisen with The Conqueror, a virtual fitness challenge platform. Instead of just another merch drop, this one turns movement into the hook. The challenge is designed around the story beats from the anime’s first season, with in-app story arcs, collectible cards, virtual postcards, and milestone rewards for participants who keep progressing.
For Malaysian and SEA fans, this is actually a pretty fun angle. JJK has always been huge here among anime fans, cosplayers, figure collectors, and mobile gamers, but a fitness challenge gives the fandom something a bit more active than just watching clips and arguing over cursed techniques online. If the regional access is smooth, this could be the kind of collab that lands well with fans who already enjoy gamified challenges on their phones.
On the game side, Phantom Parade is also celebrating its two-and-a-half-year anniversary. The official account revealed a new look at Satoru Gojo and his students, giving fans a lighter seasonal visual while the main story remains, well, extremely not chill.
Phantom Parade is the first officially licensed Jujutsu Kaisen mobile game. Developed by Sumzap, it launched in Japan on 21 November 2023 before later rolling out globally in multiple languages. The free-to-play RPG is available on Android and iOS, and it retells parts of the original story with fully voiced scenes, battles, and playable cursed techniques. It also adds original characters, giving players extra angles on the JJK universe beyond the anime and manga.
The timing makes sense because Season 4 is one of the biggest upcoming anime returns for shonen fans. The anime still needs to continue through the Culling Game, with the young sorcerers facing new enemies and trying to deal with the massive problem of freeing Gojo from the Prison Realm. The story has already shown the path forward, but JJK being JJK, nothing is going to be simple.
Beyond the anime, the franchise has kept expanding after Gege Akutami ended the original manga in 2024. The final volume included a four-part epilogue, which could potentially appear in the anime since it is tied to the main story. Akutami also returned with Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo, a short sequel story illustrated by Yuji Iwasaki. That series ran for six months, wrapped in March, and was collected into three volumes.
Modulo has not received its international volume release yet, but with the Japanese volumes already out, fans outside Japan will be watching closely for licensing and translation updates. MAPPA also released a special promotional video for the final volume this month, which naturally got fans talking about whether the sequel could eventually make the jump to anime.
There is even more on the way, including a spin-off novel written by horror author Yumeaki Hirayama and supervised by Akutami. Details are still under wraps, but the message is clear: Jujutsu Kaisen is no longer just waiting for Season 4. It is building a wider post-manga era through games, collabs, side stories, and maybe more anime down the line.
