LOADING MISSION...
Jujutsu Kaisen is the most popular ongoing anime series globally as of 2024, and its Tokyo locations are extensively documented. The Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu Technical High School is based on a real building complex in Shinjuku. The Shibuya Incident arc puts one of the world's most famous intersections - Shibuya Scramble Crossing - at the center of a battle against cursed spirits. Harajuku, Shinjuku, and the underground rail networks all appear faithfully recreated in the series.
Year-round in Tokyo. Halloween season (late October) at Shibuya is particularly atmospheric given the Shibuya arc storyline. Spring for comfortable weather.
