Jujutsu Kaisen Manga
Jujutsu Kaisen is a widely acclaimed Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Gege Akutami. First serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump in March 2018, it quickly skyrocketed in popularity due to its dark themes, emotionally complex characters, and thrilling supernatural battles.
The story revolves around a hidden world filled with Cursed Spirits, beings formed from human malice and negative emotions. To combat these deadly curses, an elite group of warriors called jujutsu sorcerers—users of powerful cursed energy—work tirelessly to protect humanity.
🔥 Latest Story Development (As of Chapter 270+)
The manga has now progressed into post-Shinjuku Showdown developments, with Sukuna’s full power unleashed and the balance of the jujutsu world teetering.

The plot is darker, deadlier, and more emotional than ever, with multiple major character deaths and revelations that have shocked the fanbase.
🧩 Plot Overview
The main storyline follows Yuji Itadori, a high school student with unnatural physical strength and a kind heart. After swallowing a cursed object—one of Sukuna’s fingers—Yuji becomes the vessel for Ryomen Sukuna, the King of Curses.
Under the guidance of the powerful sorcerer Satoru Gojo, Yuji enrolls at the Tokyo Jujutsu High, where he learns how to control cursed energy and fight curses. However, his fate is sealed—once all of Sukuna’s fingers are gathered, he must be executed to eliminate Sukuna for good.
