As part of the ongoing collaboration between anime Jujutsu Kaisen and the city of Yokohama, the iconic Cosmo Clock 21 Ferris wheel became the canvas for a spectacular special illumination show inspired by the series. The lighting ceremony took place on August 16, 2026, with voice actor Enoki Junya — who plays Itadori Yuji — and MC Matsuzawa Neki leading a countdown to kick off the display.
Five Years of Jujutsu Kaisen, One Final Summer
Having launched its 5th-anniversary project in 2025, the Jujutsu Kaisen anime is heading toward its finale in the summer of 2026. To mark the occasion, a wide-ranging collaboration with Yokohama kicked off on August 1, 2026, centered on Yokohama Cosmo World, YOKOHAMA AIR CABIN, and Yokohama Marine Tower, with activities spread across the city.
Highlights of the collaboration include:
- An original sticker giveaway campaign — use a limited menu item or service at participating venues to receive an exclusive mini-character sticker drawn specially for the event.
- A large-scale photo spot inside the Mirai Tube at Minatomirai Station, featuring the 5th-anniversary visual art.
- Character photo spots installed at various tourist landmarks throughout Yokohama.
The “Curtain” Descends on Cosmo Clock 21
The 100-meter-diameter Cosmo Clock 21 was transformed into a living piece of Jujutsu Kaisen lore. When Enoki Junya called out “3, 2, 1!”, a roughly two-minute show began — the night sky above Yokohama was enveloped in the series’ signature Curtain (帳), and characters including Itadori Yuji and Fushiguro Megumi appeared one after another against the illuminated wheel. Gradient light effects evoking the series’ Cursed Techniques (術式) added to the spectacle.
The special illumination runs from August 21 to 31, 2026, playing twice per hour at the top and half-hour marks between 19:30 and 21:32, with each show lasting two minutes.
Enoki commented: “You can still see it after ‘Juju Fes,’ so I hope everyone makes it a full Jujutsu Kaisen day. Please enjoy it.”
Juju Fes 2026 -5th Anniversary-: Biggest Ever
The lighting ceremony also served as the venue for fresh announcements about Juju Fes 2026 -5th Anniversary-, set for August 29–30, 2026 at K Arena Yokohama. Billed as the largest event in the franchise’s history, the two-day festival will feature:
- Live on-stage dubbing by a star-studded cast
- Live orchestral performance of the anime’s soundtrack by a special band, led by series composer Terui Nobumasa
- Live concerts by the artists behind the anime’s opening and ending themes
A fan-favorite new segment was also announced: the “1st Juju-demy Awards”, in which fans vote for the most memorable line from each character and propose a name for that character’s special award category. The top submissions will be performed live on stage as the winners are revealed.
Additionally, a “Jujutsu Kaisen Music Relay” segment will look back at the anime’s musical journey — original soundtrack and beyond — through live performance paired with anime footage. Enoki said of the live music: “Jujutsu Kaisen has so many wonderful tracks in its soundtrack, and I’m really looking forward to hearing them performed live. The musical genres in the show are so wide-ranging — I’m excited to see how they feel alongside the anime visuals.”
Special Guests and a Mini-Performance
The ceremony was also livened up by special guest appearances from the first-year students of Jujutsu High — Yuji-kun, Megumi-kun, and Nobara-chan — who greeted the crowd with their characteristic charm. At Juju Fes 2026 itself, all five main characters — Yuji-kun, Megumi-kun, Nobara-chan, Yuta-kun, and Satoru-kun — will gather for a warm mini-performance segment.
Closing the ceremony, Enoki left fans with a heartfelt message: “Every Jujutsu Kaisen event surprises me with new experiences. It’s all thanks to your support that we were able to hold this wonderful lighting ceremony and Juju Fes again this year. There are so many exciting projects still to come, and Juju Fes is packed with fun corners — including a dramatic reading segment that I think will really get the crowd going. I hope to see everyone there.”
