Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 Episode 1 Recap-
Episode 1 of Jujutsu Kaisen started with the now rogue-turned Geto Suguru running into Gojo Satoru. The two are meters from each other and surrounded by people. The scene ends on a cliffhanger and Episode 2 begins.
Mei Mei and Utahime Iori are sent on a mission to investigate a haunted house, but takes longer than expected, so Gojo and Suguru are sent to rescue them. Mei Mei and Utahime manage to break free from the curse’s barrier and Gojo and Suguru defeat the curse.
Utahime Iori is relieved to see Shoko Ieiri and runs crying toward her. Gojo makes fun of Utahime for crying and Shoko reminds Gojo that he forgot to put on the curtain to conceal their identity.
Back in Jujutsu High, their teacher scolds Gojo for exposing Jujutsu to the public. Gojo and Suguru have an argument over the purpose of Jujutsu and whether it should be exposed or not. Before things escalate any further, they are interrupted by Yaga who gives them a special mission.
Yaga assigns them on a special mission to rescue Riko Amani, the Star Plasma Vessel for Master Tengen’s transformation. He also warns them of Q and Time Vessel Association who want to stop the ritual and kill Riko.
The duo finally reaches the secret hideout of Riko only to find out that Q already launched the attack on them. Suguru Geto using his cursed spirits manages to save Riko, while Gojo prepares to fight another member of Q.
The episode ends with a member of the Time Vessel Association meeting with Toji Fushiguro and offering him money in exchange for Riko’s corpse.

Sets the tone off for the mini arc of Hidden Inventory extremely well. It had some amazing directions, one that stands out in quite a few scenes in the fisheye – wide angle effect on characters. Can’t wait till they adapt the entire Shibuya Incident arc. pic.twitter.com/nFMdONh6SN
Peak start to a Peak season of a Peak story. And we haven't even reached its Peak yet. #JujutsuKaisen #JujutsuKaisenSeason2
