![]() ![]() I'm happy I read it, since I suspect it might get better over time, but the current run is mediocre. There is some potential on display, but the early chapters are just not that impressive. I'm honestly a little surprised it made it out of the first year, since it certainly is nowhere near the quality of the other popular long running series in Jump. It was'nt bad, but it wasnt very good either. Mahito the villain is alright, Getou seems like he could get better over time. Yuuji is likable, Gorou is cool, but the author has'nt done enough to really make me emotionally invest in either of them, despite them having the most screen time of any characters. The cast is a bit smaller than most Jump series, but no one is really that interesting. ![]() Pretty glaringly a big weakness of the series. The art is probably at its best when drawing freaky monsters This is the first serialization of the artist, so hopefully it gets better with time. Its also damaged by running at the same time as some Jump series with much better art (Boku no Hero, Dr Stone, etc). I think in a series that relies on feeling stylish, the mediocre art really hurts it. You can always tell whats happening, but its just not that eye-catching or impressive. It also has a very fast start, which I am always put off by in Shonen (people feel like they need to rush to exciting parts in order to avoid cancelation, but it reallyy just makes everything mean less when it happens so fast). It also has a good long term conflict between main character Yuuji and the demon that possesses him Sukuno, but for now, the series feels lacking in direction. The lack of originality is unfortunate, but the story does better when dealing with character to character interactions. with some generous dashes of Yu Yu Hakusho. The setup feels as though its a bit cobbled together from other popular series, featuring a society dedicated to getting rid of evil spirits (Bleach), a school of talented young combatants (Boku no Hero), along Read it now, and enjoy the ride.įor those who are always on the lookout for the next big hit from Shonen Jump, they've probably been hearing about Jujutsu Kaisen, due to it selling fairly well for its early volumes and making it alive out of its first year of publishing, managing to avoid the early cancelation that kills most Jump series in half a year. We are not yet exposed to many potential story lines, and neither do we completely grasp the magic system (whcih definitely has hard rules) yet. The world seems not yet vastly explored, we've only seen two schools so far and have not seen the head of different jujutsu families yet. Additionally, the side story Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical School is also a good read and helps you understand the world more. 70ish as we learn more about the things that went about. chapter 40ish, with great chemistry between characters, and then chapter ![]() But it picks up, alot.Įscalations mainly occured in chapter 14, as we deeper look into power systems. I would say the first few chapters of the series are very generic and is not as interesting as chainsawman. That's as spoiler free as I can give you. The series are for those who love hard magic systems, good world building and are willing to wait for stories to pick up. I gave this series a very high rating and probably one of the best new series, there with chainsaw man. Taking up this chance to make the world safer and live his life for a little longer, Yuuji enrolls in Jujutsu High, jumping headfirst into a harsh and unforgiving battlefield. Therefore, if Yuuji were to consume the many other remnants of Sukuna, then Yuuji's subsequent execution would truly eradicate the malicious demon. Being a rare vessel to Sukuna, if Yuuji were to die, then Sukuna would perish too. Though Yuuji can control and confine Sukuna to his own body, the Jujutsu world classifies Yuuji as a dangerous, high-level Curse who must be exterminated.ĭetained and sentenced to death, Yuuji meets Satoru Gojou-a teacher at Jujutsu High School-who explains that despite his imminent execution, there is an alternative for him. When high school student Yuuji Itadori finds a dried-up finger of the legendary Curse Sukuna Ryoumen, he suddenly finds himself joining this bloody conflict.Īttacked by a Curse attracted to the finger's power, Yuuji makes a reckless decision to protect himself, gaining the power to combat Curses in the process but also unwittingly unleashing the malicious Sukuna into the world once more. Supernatural monsters known as "Curses" terrorize humanity from the shadows, and powerful humans known as "Jujutsu" sorcerers use mystical arts to exterminate them. EditSynopsis Hidden in plain sight, an age-old conflict rages on. ![]()
