Crunchyroll’s autumn hit looks likely to be Jujutsu Kaisen. Geek Native is tracking the occult action in Irregular Reconnaissance where it is currently tracking as “Good”.
The first episode of Jujutsu Kaisen is now free to watch on YouTube.
The series is about an unnaturally strong high school student who ends up becoming cursed to try and save a friend. The thing is, curses are the power you need to defeat other physical manifestations of curses. It’s like you need to be suffering from a little demonic possession to fight demons.
We’re just a couple of episodes in, but protagonist Yuji has become part of a school of sorcerers so that he might try and harness is new and unwelcome power, and we’ve met his two other classmates.
The show is hinting that it’ll be more than a straight-up skirmish series with politics brewing with the sorcerers and even the Curses themselves.
