Jujutsu Kaisen
Hello anime lovers, I’m back with another review of an anime series. Recently, I have been watching a lot of anime related to time travel, and I’m somewhat addicted to it. I always find joy in sci-fi-related anime. But today’s anime is different. I watched this anime long ago, but I re-watched it again as I almost forgot the story. So the name of the anime series is Jujutsu Kaisen. It’s an incredible anime, and I wanted to share a glimpse with you guys.
The thumbnail is scary; I can tell already that the anime is going to be awesome. The dialogues and everything blend so well with the animation; the animation is more amazing than I recall. Mappa is on a roll; they truly deserve Studio of the Year for having such great anime. I think the trailer didn’t do the anime justice, so I would recommend watching the anime first before judging.
Spoilers Ahead!
The story begins with a guy called Yuji Itadori. He was a simple guy, and he had friends with whom he used to hang out. They had a club where they used to call for ghosts, and in search of a haunted place, one day they discovered a box that had a finger inside it. Actually, it was cursed, and Yuji had no idea about it, but for that box, his friends were in trouble. He came to know about it through Megumi Fushiguro, who was in search of these types of things because he is a Jujutsu Sorcerer. They work to fight off spirits in order to prevent harm to humans. Yuji’s friends were in trouble because the spirits started to attack his friends, and Fushiguro told him to stay back, but Yuji meddled in because he didn’t want to lose his friends.
At one point, he ended up swallowing the cursed finger inside the box in order to save his friends. After that, Yuji became a vessel for the powerful cursed spirit, which is Sukuna. Yuji became stronger and saved his friends from the monster spirit, but in the end, he lost control as Sukuna was trying to take over his body. The story is about how Yuji struggles to survive with Sukuna inside his body and save human beings.
Well, the concept of cursed spirits and domain expansions is something unique that I have seen so far; also, the fighting styles hooked me immediately. To be honest, by the end of Season 1, I got addicted to this anime, and the character development is undeniable. Everything in this anime kept me glued to the screen. It might not be one of the perfect anime, but it’s undeniably entertaining. If you are a fan of intense battles, then this series has something special for you!
Well, Yuji, our main protagonist, was not allowed to completely dominate the anime, and that is very rarely seen. Most of the time, it is seen that his teacher, Gojo, stole the show with his mesmerizing heroic moments; many scenes can send a shiver down your spine. Even though he is a secondary character, he is still a fan-favorite character because he shines more than our protagonist. As you can see, all of the fight sequences are executed with the right usage of music and colors. This has made the anime look more watchable.
