What is Jujutsu Kaisen about?
“Yuji Itadori is a high school student with amazing physical abilities, living a normal life,” reads the official synopsis for Jujutsu Kaisen. “But one day, in order to save his schoolmate from a ‘curse,’ he eats a special grade cursed object, ‘Sukuna’s Finger,’ and gets the curse within his soul. Itadori, who now shares his body with the cursed spirit ‘Sukuna,’ transfers to an institution specializing in curses, Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School, to be guided by the most powerful jujutsu sorcerer, Satoru Gojo … A story of a high school student who carries a curse in order to exorcise it. With no way of turning back, his fierce tale begins to unfold.”
Jujutsu Kaisen premiered in October 2020 with a 24-episode first season on Crunchyroll and immediately became a hit among fans. The prequel film Jujutsu Kaisen 0 was released in Japan on December 24, 2021.
The anime is based on the manga series of the same name. Both the manga and anime have found widespread success in Japan, with the manga having sold over 55 million copies.
