VIZ Media describes the manga as follows:
“In a world where cursed spirits feed on unsuspecting humans, fragments of the legendary and feared demon Ryomen Sukuna were lost and scattered about. Should any demon consume Sukuna’s body parts, the power they gain could destroy the world as we know it. Fortunately, there exists a mysterious school of Jujutsu Sorcerers who exist to protect the precarious existence of the living from the supernatural!”
The anime is currently airing in Japan and on Crunchyroll. The first episode is currently available to view on Crunchyroll’s streaming service. This is a great opportunity to read the first volume of the manga and then watch the first episode of the anime.
