Keep the movie separate
Jujutsu Kaisen 0 has its own release identity. It belongs in the movie section, linked to the series, not inside the numbered episode spine.
Release order first
For most first-time viewers, release order is the least confusing path. Story-order debates make more sense after you understand the cast and world.
Use spoiler-safe pages first
The movie connects to character and arc context. Use spoiler-safe text if you are still early in the series.

Jujutsu Kaisen Movie releases
Movies stay outside the TV episode count. That preserves official numbering and makes watch orders easier to trust when a franchise has theatrical stories, recuts, or side releases.
