Synopsis
This dark fantasy battle manga tells the story of jujutsu sorcerers who exorcise monstrous cursed spirits born from negative human emotions using jujutsu techniques.
Yuji Itadori, a high school student with extraordinary physical abilities, was raised by his grandfather and never knew his parents. One night, after his grandfather's death, a powerful cursed object sealed at Yuji's school is released, unleashing malevolent cursed spirits that attack people. To save his stranded upperclassmen, Yuji teams up with jujutsu sorcerer Megumi Fushiguro and charges into the school. However, when they are driven into a corner, Yuji consumes the cursed object—Sukuna's Finger—in order to gain power, inadvertently resurrecting the Special Grade Cursed Object, Ryomen Sukuna.
Following this, Yuji is captured by the jujutsu sorcerers and sentenced to death as the "vessel of Sukuna." However, thanks to Satoru Gojo's proposal, Yuji is given a reprieve with the condition that he must consume all of Sukuna's fingers before being executed.
Thus, Yuji enrolls in the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College, beginning his life as a jujutsu sorcerer.
