Synopsis
Suffering, regret, shame: humans' negative feelings become Curses, causing terrible accidents that can even lead to death. And to make matters worse, Curses can only be exorcised by other Curses. One day, to save friends who were being attacked by Curses, Yuji Itadori swallows Ryomen-Sukuna's finger, absorbing his Curse. He then decides to enroll in the Tokyo Technical College of Sorcery, an organization that fights Curses... and so begins the heroic legend of the boy who became a Curse to exorcise a Curse.
Author Gege Akutami launched the Jujutsu Kaisen manga in Weekly Shonen Jump in March 2018.
