What's the Title of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2’s First Opening Song?
The first opening song of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is titled Ao no Sumika, which translates to Where Our Blue Is.
The word "ao" means "blue," which most likely corresponds to the term "blue spring," which is slang for high school days in Japan.
Everything is so simple at this point in time, and high school boys like Gojo and Geto can only think about playing around and having fun with each other despite being Jujutsu sorcerers.
As expected, Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2’s opening is a banger that will live rent-free on everyone’s heads for the weeks to come.
It is an opening song that entices anime viewers to watch the show due to how entertaining it is.
It's the perfect anime opening for the show's second season, wonderfully capturing Gojo and Geto's youthful days as jujutsu sorcerers fighting on the same side.
It also evokes a nostalgic and emotional reaction from the fans as we see both of these iconic individuals interact in a relaxed and pleasant manner.
It almost feels like nothing could possibly come between Gojo and Geto's close bond, yet we all know what occurred afterward.
Ao no Sumika is a very upbeat song, but it's also incredibly sad. It plays on our emotions and reminds us of some of our happy and painful memories that we can't go back to anymore.

Here Are the Lyrics of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2’s First Opening Song
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2’s opening song is an emotional roller coaster ride, which shows through its lyrics translated by Lyrical Nonsense:
The endless season of blue
Four eyes aligned with nothing obstructing their view
The asphalt reflects the cicadas singing
Makes the silence of you inaudible
These days will fade away
Even though I’ve come to know the scent of you being different from mine
In the depths of an eternity left behind
Even now the blue lives
Even now the blue is clear
Any prayer, any word
Could bring us closer, but they couldn’t reach you
Just like a silent love
In the summery colors along my cheeks,
The words that curse you have been stuck in the back of my throat
“We’ll meet again, right?” in an unvoiced voice in the late afternoon, the season of damp wind
A time to reminisce, a portrait of us who were nobody yet
No matter what, we could have shared it
Little by little, since that day
The curse of me being different from you is growing bigger
The sorrow behind your smile
I failed to notice it with all my regret
To you, a flower that blooms but falls without bearing fruit
I say goodbye
Like star grains in an infinitely expanding galaxy
Spilling through the gaps between my fingers
The lyrics of Ao no Sumika are full of longing. It almost seems like a love letter to someone from the songwriter’s past life.
Truly, gone are the days when everything was just so easy, but one thing’s for sure: it will never be forgotten.

Here Are the Lyrics of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2’s Second Opening Song
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2’s second opening song has been labeled by fans as the best OP in the series! Here are the lyrics translated by Lyrical Nonsense:
“U R MY SPECIAL”
Let’s dance on the brink of the precipice
Tokyo’s frontline, the city of excitement
In the midst of struggling at the brink of the end
Show me even your impolite side
“i luv u baby”
Let’s keep singing
No matter how foolish or out of place it may seem
Every gesture, every move sets my heart on fire
Once we start running, it’s uncontrolled
“U R MY SPECIAL”
Won’t you make things chaotic?
Devour everything to the fullest
A lifelong labyrinthine rendezvous
To the point of dizziness, “U R MY SPECIAL”
In this spinning world of ambiguities
No! No! No! Don’t be so calm.
A lifelong labyrinthine rendezvous
No matter what anyone says, “U R MY SPECIAL”
“WE R SPECIAL”
At the edge of the sumo ring,
let’s endure Tokyo’s vicinity, in a great commotion
Media outlets, full of spite and blood, are running wild
Calmness and detachment are forbidden
“get lost in 31”
How long will you keep telling yourself
Only words that defend yourself?
“get lost in 31”
I won’t allow regrets
About the way I live.
I want a response, I want to feel your body temperature
The flow of low body temperature ignites a blue flame
Don’t deceive me romantically, cut through straightforwardly
I can no longer be intoxicated by feverish love songs
