the hospital, where he visits his bedridden grandfather. However, this
leisurely lifestyle soon takes a turn for the strange when he
unknowingly encounters a cursed item. Triggering a chain of supernatural
occurrences, Yuuji finds himself suddenly thrust into the world of
Curses—dreadful beings formed from human malice and negativity—after
swallowing the said item, revealed to be a finger belonging to the demon
Sukuna Ryoumen, the "King of Curses." Yuuji experiences first-hand the threat these Curses pose to society as
he discovers his own newfound powers. Introduced to the Tokyo

path from which he cannot return—the path of a Jujutsu sorcerer.

again as a baby born to two loving parents. Preserving his memories and knowledge from his previous life, Rudeus

he starts to display magical talent that exceeds all expectations,
honing his skill with the help of a mage named Roxy Migurdia. Rudeus
learns swordplay from his father, Paul, and meets Sylphiette, a girl his

1:35 - 2:25 Kemono Jihen 9-10
Plot Summary: Kohachi Inugami, a detective who specializes in the occult, arrives at a
remote village in the Japanese countryside, tasked by a hostess at a
local inn to investigate a string of incidents involving rotting and
mutilated livestock corpses that have been appearing for seemingly no
reason. While surveying, Inugami notices a peculiar young boy working in
the fields. Evaded by his peers and called "Dorotabou" for his stench,
the young farmhand is surprised that anybody would take an interest in
him. Inugami, piqued with curiosity, enlists Dorotabou in helping him with
the investigation, despite scorned looks from the villagers. Unbeknownst
to Dorotabou, this investigation will reveal a strange new world to
him—one of the beast-like entities known as Kemono existing in tandem
with humans—along with breathing new purpose into his previously empty
life.
2:25 - 4:40 Evangelion 3.0+1.01 Thrice Upon a Time [Movie]
Thrice Upon a Time
Plot Summary: In Paris, a team from the Wille organization, led by Maya Ibuki,
works on a system designed to restore the city to its previous state.
Upon being attacked by Nerv forces, they are defended by the Wunder
fleet and Mari Illustrious Makinami in Unit-08. Mari defeats the attackers, and the Wille team restores Paris.
Asuka
Shikinami Langley, Rei Ayanami and Shinji Ikari, still despondent, are
walking across the outskirts of Tokyo-3. They arrive at a settlement of
survivors, and encounter Toji Suzuhara, Hikari Horaki and Kensuke Aida,
now adults. Toji is a doctor and has a child with Hikari, while Kensuke
is a technician, and all are friendly to Shinji. Asuka expresses
frustration with Shinji, force-feeding him. As Shinji slowly recovers,
Rei explores the village and settles down, working as a farmer. Shinji
meets Ryoji Kaji, the son of Misato Katsuragi and the late Ryoji Kaji,
who died averting Third Impact. Rei requires constant exposure to LCL
and cannot maintain herself, decomposing in Shinji's presence.
Wunder
arrives to pick up Asuka, and Shinji decides to go with
her, despite protests from the crew. Shinji is placed in isolation.
Meanwhile, Kozo Fuyutsuki, distressed over Shinji's treatment by Gendo
Ikari in forcing him to experience the same loss as him, helps Gendo
restart Unit-13. In response, Wunder heads to Antarctica. Before the
mission, Asuka admits her feelings for Shinji, recognizing he is growing
up.
Wunder is attacked by three Nerv ships and a swarm of EVA units.
Asuka and Mari sortie and move to destroy Unit-13 before it can
reactivate. However, Unit-02 refuses to attack Unit-13, forcing Asuka to
remove her eyepatch, revealing the Ninth Angel contained within, converting Unit-02
into an Angel. Unit-13 overpowers and absorbs Unit-02 according to
Gendo's plan. Moments before being absorbed, Asuka is approached by her
"original", revealing she is a clone of the Shikinami series. Meanwhile,
the Wunder is attacked by a new EVA, Unit-09A.
In the Nerv vessel restraining the Wunder, Misato and Ritsuko Akagi
confront Gendo. Ritsuko shoots him to no effect as Gendo has used the
Key of Nebuchadnezzar to transcend humanity. Gendo reveals that the
purpose of the Shikinami and Ayanami clones is to enact the Human
Instrumentality Project, and enters Unit-13. A determined Shinji asks
Misato to let him pilot Unit-01. Sakura and Midori Kitakami
try to stop Shinji, but Misato protects him and is shot in the process.
Misato apologizes to Shinji, saying that she was wrong to blame him and
will take responsibility for his actions. Mari takes Unit-08 and merges
it with Units 09A through 12. Inside Unit-01, the original Ayanami
clone appears before Shinji, apologizing for not being able to spare him
from having to get into an EVA, but Shinji says it is alright.
Gendo and Shinji fight in a surreal "Anti Universe", and Gendo shows Shinji an "imaginary Evangelion", a "Black Lilith".
Shinji meets Gendo, seeing a vision of his past experiences, including
how Yui's loss traumatized him. As a result, Gendo wanted to initiate an
"Additional Impact" for a chance to reunite with Yui. Meanwhile, Misato
evacuates the crew of the Wunder and sacrifices herself and the ship to
create the "Lance of Gaius", which gives Shinji the power to rewrite
the world. Shinji talks with and provides closure to Gendo; to Asuka,
returning her feelings; and to Kaworu Nagisa,
revealing the existence of a cycle the cast is trapped in. Kaworu also
talks with the elder Kaji, who helps him understand that his own
happiness should not be tied to Shinji's.
Shinji says a final farewell to Rei, and he decides to completely reset the world... a world without Evangelions.
