After canceling the first three days of shows, JUJUTSU KAISEN The Stage will finally begin its Osaka leg of the tour on August 7, with two shows held at 12:30 PM and 6 PM Japan. The shows were canceled on August 4 due to an accident during rehearsals a few hours earlier involving the actor playing Yuji Itadori, Ryuji Sato. JUJUTSU KAISEN The Stage will continue to run through to August 14.

More details on Ryuji Sato’s injuries were revealed, with Sponichi Annex confirming that Sato hurt his arm during the dress rehearsals in preparation for the opening show. Sato went to the hospital for treatment for his arm, but after being discharged, Sato’s pain remained. After discussions between Sato, his agency and the production committee of the show, they all decided to restart performances on August 7 with some small changes to the show to accommodate Sato’s injuries.
