Jujutsu Kaisen’s Shibuya Incident Arc Inspires Wicked New Yuji Figure

A new Yuji Itadori figure is on the way from S.H. Figuarts, with the stunning release paying tribute to one of the most beloved storylines in Jujutsu Kaisen: the Shibuya Incident Arc. Since the dark fantasy adventure manga kicked off in 2018, Gege Akutami's Jujutsu Kaisen has become a global phenomenon, with MAPPA's 2020 anime adaptation taking its popularity to new heights. New collaborations, merch reveals, and exhibitions seem to be in the news constantly, and this highly anticipated Yuji figure is quickly shooting to the top of fans' wishlists.

Fans of Jujutsu Kaisen are likely familiar with the sixth arc in the series. The Shibuya Incident was a major jujutsu terrorist attack by Kenjaku, who aimed to seal Gojo inside the Prison Realm. This led to some of the manga's most memorable moments, with beloved characters killed in action, Sukuna being properly awakened, and millions of cursed spirits being unleashed on Japan, with Tokyo declared a permanent no-go area. Beyond its incredible action, the Shibuya Incident garnered massive acclaim for its storytelling, as it completely did away with the heroes' safety net and transformed Jujutsu Kaisen into more of a horror thriller during its run. Now, fans of the series' protagonist can commemorate this legendary arc with a new piece of highly coveted merch.

S.H. Figuarts Teases Explosive New Yuji Itadori Figure

In a new Twitter post, Tamashii Nations teased the newest Yuji Itadori figure to hit the scene. Titled '120% of Potential,' the upcoming release will feature interchangeable wrist parts, several unique facial expressions, and even interchangeable bangs, along with a set of special effects parts. It's currently unclear how much the figure will cost in the US, though it is listed at ¥8,250 (around $52) on the Japanese website. This new Yuji figure stands at approximately 150mm (5.9 inches) tall, and the company promises that more information will be revealed soon. On the official S.H. Figuarts site, it states that preorders will open on June 1, with the figure scheduled to release in November 2026.

The most recent season of Jujutsu Kaisen ran from January to March, and adapted the first half of the manga's Culling Game story arc, in which the Jujutsu Sorcerers enter the Culling Game to fight off Kenjaku and free Gojo from the Prison Realm. Season 4 of the series, fittingly titled The Culling Game: Part 2, is currently in production at Studio MAPPA. An exact premiere date has not been confirmed, but early reports imply that it could hit the small screen as early as January 2027.

In 2021, Jujutsu Kaisen 0 was released in Japanese theaters, with the film serving as a prologue to the manga series. After Crunchyroll acquired the rights to the film, it was screened in over 1,500 theaters in North America in March 2022. Jujutsu Kaisen 0 currently boasts a Rotten Tomatoes score of 96%, with fans and critics alike applauding its fluid animation, characters, horror elements, and voice cast.

The Jujutsu Kaisen manga concluded in 2024, though original author Gege Akutami teamed up with manga artist Yuji Iwasaki for a short-term series, Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo, which appeared in Weekly Shonen Jump from September 2025 until March 2026. The spin-off takes place in Tokyo nearly 70 years after the events of the Culling Game, as technology and sorcery begin to merge. Fans are already hoping that someday, an anime adaptation could happen.

Jujutsu Kaisen is currently available to stream on Crunchyroll.
