Show Information

Jujutsu Kaisen was created in March 2018 by creator Gege Akutami and published under the Shonen Jump umbrella. The supernatural series became a fast hit with fans who compared its fast pace to that found in Bleach. The series tells the story of Yuki Itadori, a high school student who accidentally becomes the host to a powerful curse. But when it is revealed the boy can somewhat control the power, he is allowed to live long enough to collect the curse fully and help rid the world of other rogue curses. You can check out the synopsis of Jujutsu Kaisen below:

“In a world where cursed spirits feed on unsuspecting humans, fragments of the legendary and feared demon Ryomen Sukuna were lost and scattered about. Should any demon consume Sukuna’s body parts, the power they gain could destroy the world as we know it. Fortunately, there exists a mysterious school of Jujutsu Sorcerers who exist to protect the precarious existence of the living from the supernatural!”
