So as I thought, Reize in a movie and then season 2 will be the rest of part 1

it makes sense!

And they recommended watching Jin Roh. Fitting with the manga interviews, but always worth repeating.

If I'm lucky, a theater a hundred miles away will carry it for a day or two and I can maybe get a day off of work to go see it.

More likely I'm gonna have to wait a year to rent it on Amazon Prime or whatever.

I think the industry has just kind of decided on The Format for big anime nowadays: Season, movie, season, movie, season, movie...

They may also end up doing the thing where they subsequently chop up the movie into a half-cour's worth of episodes as a lead-in to the new season.

Yeah and I hate it. Having a movie that is inaccessible to me in any legal manner until like a year after it aired and then after I finally watch it having half a season wasted on the movie recap sucks! Looking at you, Demon Slayer. At least One Piece, Spy x Family and MHA have the grace of their movies not being a part of the main story.

Jujutsu Kaisen didn't have its movie chopped up as episodes, I expect this won't either.

Jujutsu Kaisen movies are stand alone stories not dealing with the main characters except Gojo though, they're not part of the main continuity, they're flashbacks. This will be a straight continuation of the manga story like Demon Slayer so there's merit in chopping it into episodes sized chunks.

The new season had a massive flashback right at the beginning and the movie features tons of characters from the series. They could have easily slipped it in there.

They are absolutely main continuity. In the manga it came out before the manga started and all the characters end up super important to the plot.

The X-Files movie in s5 is placed directly after the season finale and is referenced in the next season's opening episode.

Too ahead of their time. Almost... supernaturally so.

I think the Reze arc almost manages to? It's like a side-story that explains what Denji also is before the endgame. It's plenty self-contained and should fit in a movie.

I was actually worried about the rest of Part 1 fitting into one season, but slicing Reze off into a movie should be just enough. They can't do a big recap in the season proper without undoing what this solves.

Not only is jujutsu kaisen 0 in-continuity it's going to become increasingly important to the story as the anime goes on

Heads up for people who jumped onto that CSM collection. Mine came today and volume 6 was full of torn up pages and looking online there's apparently alot of printing errors people are reporting on other volumes randomly. So I'd def open it up and take a look before you let it collect dust on your shelves.
