The Cursed Phenomenon: Jujutsu Kaisen's Rise to Fame

Jujutsu Kaisen, penned by the masterful Gege Akutami, first appeared in the pages of Weekly Shonen Jump in March 2018. It quickly enchanted readers with its dark themes, intricate plot, and charismatic characters. The series catapulted its audience into a world where cursed spirits feed on unsuspecting humans, and Jujutsu sorcery's mysterious art is the only defense line. The storyline follows Yuji Itadori, a high schooler with extraordinary physical prowess who finds himself entangled in the perilous world of curses after swallowing a cursed object containing the finger of the notorious Curse, Sukuna. Itadori's journey of becoming a Jujutsu sorcerer intertwines with his quest to collect and consume Sukuna's fingers, all while battling formidable foes and uncovering the layers of his cursed destiny.
