Are you brave enough to withstand curses, demonic possession, and vengeful spirits?
If you think that belief in the occult and supernatural no longer has a place in modern-day Japan, you’re sorely mistaken. And likely dead. Thanks to bullies at school, economic troubles, tensions among family members, and the nation’s own cutthroat corporate culture, people continuously give off negative energies, thus creating all sorts of curses and demons.
These spirits can kill in a variety of gruesome ways – each deserving their own horror film – and are completely invisible to most humans. The few who can see these cursed spirits are Japan’s last hope at protecting humanity from these unseen terrors. Many of them are scouted to study at secret academies to become jujutsu sorcerers.
At these schools, classes could have as few as three students. When you’re fighting otherworldly beings, not everybody makes it out alive.

Jujutsu Kaisen is one of anime’s latest hits in the supernatural action genre. It explores the concept of people naturally releasing Cursed Energy from their own negative emotions. When enough of this Cursed Energy is released, it spawns horrific, demon-like beings called Curses that actively seek to attack humanity.
Naturally, places that harbour a lot of negative emotions – such as hospitals, morgues, prisons, universities or graveyards – end up becoming hotbeds for all sorts of creepy and dangerous Curses. Additionally, just from the fact that urban centers have way more people to give off Cursed Energy, cities can harbour some of the strongest and most hostile Curses out there.
To protect humanity from these troubling spirits and prevent more from being released, a secretive organization of jujutsu sorcerers constantly patrol Japan. These individuals are able to control and harness their Cursed Energy into a variety of deadly techniques that can hurt or destroy other Curses.
The plot is based around a freakishly strong teenager, Yuji Itadori, who winds up as a student of Tokyo Jujutsu High – a clandestine school for training new jujutsu sorcerers – after swallowing a cursed finger once possessed by the King of Curses, Ryomen Sukuna.
Domain Expansion is among the most devastating abilities that can be wielded by Curses or jujutsu users. It acts like an upgraded version of a barrier technique that traps the user and their enemies within a pocket dimension formed from the user’s own mind.
This ability throttles the power level of the user’s jujutsu to staggering new levels, and any attack they throw is virtually guaranteed to connect. The drawback is that Domain Expansion requires vast amounts of Cursed Energy to properly manifest, and thus, only a handful of sorcerers and Curses are capable of it.
Other users can activate their Domain Expansion while currently inside an enemy’s Domain. The user with more control and mastery wins by overpowering the other user, bringing them to their own Domain. Sometimes, it also causes a tear through which sorcerers can exit a Domain.
