Episode Details

What happens when an ordinary high schooler swallows a cursed finger and becomes the host of the most dangerous sorcerer in history? Jujutsu Kaisen delivers explosive action, intricate worldbuilding, and emotionally charged storytelling as Yuji Itadori, Megumi Fushiguro, Nobara Kugisaki, and the maddeningly powerful Gojo Satoru take on curses born from humanity’s darkest emotions.

With breathtaking choreography, standout character arcs, and a constant push-pull between hope and despair, the series elevates modern shonen into something beautifully brutal and deeply human. Every battle means something. Every character bleeds for something.

Episode one sees Brendan White joined by Matt "Briefcase" Brown from Split the Party to unpack Gege Akutami and MAPPA's supernatural anime hit, Jujutsu Kaisen.
