What Is Jujutsu Kaisen About?

“Jujutsu Kaisen” is set in a world where cursed spirits and supernatural forces exist.

At the occult club, Itadori and his schoolmates encounter a cursed talisman that contains Ryomen Sukuna’s finger, the most powerful cursed spirit in history. Upon their discovery, Itadori and his friends accidentally unleashed Sukuna’s curse. Determined to help his friends and stop the curse, Itadori bravely swallows the finger.
