Jujutsu Kaisen

Jujutsu Kaisen is a Japanese manga series written by Gege Akutami, serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump since March 2018, and collected in 27 volumes as of July 2024. The story follows Yuji Itadori, a high school student who becomes the host of a powerful Curse, Ryomen Sukuna, and joins Jujutsu Sorcerers to eliminate him. The manga is a sequel to Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School, later retitled Jujutsu Kaisen 0.

The series has been adapted into an anime, with two seasons aired by 2023 and a sequel covering the “Culling Game” arc announced. As of January 2024, the manga had over 90 million copies in circulation.

The plot centers on a world where Cursed Energy, born from negative emotions, leads to the birth of Curses. Jujutsu Sorcerers, who control Cursed Energy, battle these Curses. Yuji, after consuming one of Sukuna’s fingers, is taken in by the sorcerers and embarks on missions, ultimately facing powerful enemies like Mahito and Kenjaku. Major story arcs include battles against Curses, the “Culling Games,” and the struggle to rescue Megumi and free Gojo from imprisonment.

The manga, influenced by Neon Genesis Evangelion and works by authors like Yoshihiro Togashi and Tite Kubo, is set to conclude by September 2024 after five more chapters.
