Although Gege Akutami’sJujutsu Kaisenhas a lot of elements that make it one of the best anime and manga series of all time, there is one aspect of the series that is very much underrated. This aspect is its theme songs that too have developed quite a love from fans because of their catchy tunes and possible hints in the animation.

FromLOST IN PARADISEtoSpecialz, Akutami’sJujutsu Kaisenhas managed to nail the opening and ending themes of the series that may not look like much but is a very big achievement for any anime series as fans usually tend to skip the opening and ending themes and focus on the storyline in between of the episode.

In regards to this, Akutami has shown great gestures towards the creators of one of the most talked about opening themes ofJujutsu Kaisen, King Gnu. They have presented King Gnu with a gift for making not one but three iconic songs ofJujutsu Kaisenanime.

King Gnu is a Japanese band that started in 2013. The members of the band are Daiki Tsuneta, vocalist and guitarist, Satoru Iguchi, vocalist and keyboardist, Kazuki Arai, bassist, and Yu Seki, drummer. They have been quite a big name in Japan for a long time and have built up a huge fan following in the country.

King Gnu composed two songs in December for the movieJujutsu Kaisen 0:“Ichizu”and “Sakayume,” which serve as the movie’s opening and closing themes. On September 1st, they released“Specialz”as the opening theme for the Shibuya Arc segment of the second season of the anime Jujutsu Kaisen.

As the series is gearing up for the third season there is a high chance that King Gnu might make another iconic song for the opening or the closing theme of the anime series.
