The first project is a parody advertisement in collaboration with the iconic Fanta fruit soda commercial series "Fanta School Series". The parody ad, titled "3rd Year J-Class Superhuman Teacher," has been released on the official YouTube channel "Jump Channel" and the official "Jujutsu Kaisen" X (Twitter).

In the world of the "Fanta School Series," which gained popularity through TV commercials since 2002, the live-action version of Takaba (played by Hiromu Makino) appears as the "Superhuman Teacher."

The second project is the "Yokeina-Ose-Wi-Fi!!! Ad Truck" campaign, which recreates Takaba's one-liner gag "Yokeina-Ose-Wi-Fi!!!" that expresses the frustration of connecting to slow Wi-Fi outdoors. From today until the 10th, ad trucks equipped with Wi-Fi will be running in Shinjuku and Shibuya. Connect to the SSID "Yokeina-Ose-Wi-Fi" and enjoy the Wi-Fi.

"Jujutsu Kaisen" is a dark fantasy manga serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump" since March 2018. The story follows high school student Yuji Itadori as he steps into a world of battles involving curses after the seal of a powerful cursed object is broken.

The manga has surpassed 90 million copies in circulation. The TV anime aired from October 2020 to March 2021 and gained immense popularity. A theatrical anime was released in December 2021, and the second season of the TV anime aired from July to December 2023. A sequel titled "Jujutsu Kaisen: The Culling Game" has also been announced.

At the "Jump Festa 2024" stage event held at the end of last year, a handwritten comment from Gege Akutami hinted that the story would conclude in 2024, stating, "This is probably the last Jump Festa while Jujutsu Kaisen is still being serialized."
