Morning.

So which one are you right now?

Aren't you...

Gojou Satoru.

I'm in charge of the first-years at Jujutsu Tech.

Jujutsu...

Fushiguro... Senpai!

What is this?

I'm not sure you should be worrying about others,

Itadori Yuuji.

It's been decided that you'll be secretly executed.

Jujutsu Kaisen

Episode 1: Ryoumen Sukuna

Itadori

Hello, Sugisawa Hospital.

Oh, this is Itadori.

I just called earlier.

Yes.

Yes.

I'm sorry to keep calling,

but how is my grandpa doing?

Huh? I thought they already told you.

Oh, please hold on.

I'll go ask myself.

Itadori-san never uses his call button.

It's actually scary that he doesn't.

Itadori-san, you have a phone call.

Yuuji-kun's asking if you want him to bring any—

Leave me alone!

Tell him not to come!

He should go to his club! His club!

What? What's going on?

You heard him.

What club are you in, Yuuji-kun?

I heard.

I'll come by tomorrow evening.

Miyashiro Prefectural Sugisawa Third High School

They're keeping a cursed object in a place like this?

Could they be any dumber?

There's nothing here.

Huh?

The Stevenson screen's empty.

For real? That's hilarious!

Maybe it took a nighttime stroll.

I'll punch you.

Well, no going home until it's recovered, okay?

I'm seriously going to punch him next time.

Ready to go?

Are you really sure,

Occult Phenomenon Research Club

Sasaki-senpai?

Iguchi-senpai?

Okay, here we go!

Spirits, spirits, please tell us...

Which creature is the council president just barely weaker than?!

Ku

Ku-ri-o-ne (sea angel)?

ri

o

ne

Sea Angel

A type of plankton living in cold oceans!

A transparent body!

It's actually related to mollusks!

It moves its legs, which look like wings, to float around.

When capturing prey, its mouth pops open and shoots out tentacles!

Eek!

A sea angel can beat him?!

What a small fry!

Occult club!

Hey, Plankton President! What's up?

Notice

As you were previously informed,

a research club with no real activities must forfeit its club room.

So vacate this room at once!

You shouldn't underestimate our members, President.

Mysterious Events File 9

What is that?

You know about our rugby field being closed off, right?

Yes.

Some of the students who fell ill were actually hospitalized.

Don't you think that's strange?

We're talking about tough rugby players here.

Truth is, the players said they started hearing

B i n g

O o o o o

mysterious sounds and voices right before they fell ill.

That's when we found this newspaper article from thirty years ago.

Belongings Found on Roadside, Possible Crime

It talks about the disappearance of Yoshida-san, who worked with the construction company,

Former Employee, Age 35, Goes Missing at Sugisawa

Former Employee of a Major Construction Company Never Made a Comeback and Went Into Debt

Last Sighted at Sugisawa Third

Laid Off from Work Failed to Start New Enterprise Possible Suicide

and it mentions he was last sighted here at Sugisawa Third High School during construction.

Laid Off from Work Failed to Start New Enterprise

Yoshida-san was struggling to make ends meet,

Continuous Collection Calls Threatening Calls and Faxes

so he turned to loan sharks

and those organizations were after him.

Suspicious Men at His Home Possible Kidnapping

Which means!

The whole disaster at the rugby field was caused by

the vengeful spirit of Yoshida-san, who's buried there!

Vengeful Spirit

No, it was caused by ticks.

Vengeful Spirit

Hard Ticks

A large, parasitic tick that sucks the blood of animals and humans!

Be careful, because they can be carriers of infectious diseases that lead to death if they bite humans!

Diseases such as Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome (SFTS)

Hmm?

They leap onto targets from grass and bushes.

Burp

Leap

Size

Before Blood

After Blood

After sucking blood, their size can increase up to 100x!

Hard ticks.

A large, blood-sucking bug.

If one bites you and infects you with SFTS,

it can be fatal, so be very careful.

So what?!

The occult club is trying to uncover occult activity,

so it's still a proper club activity report!

This isn't some kid's game!

Besides, the biggest problem is you,

Itadori Yuuji!

You're registered with track and field, not the occult club,

so this club doesn't even have the three members required for any club!

Not Enough Members

Huh?

Itadori...

No, I know I wrote down the occult club.

I rewrote it!

The track and field coach, Takagi!

Itadori, we need you so we can conquer the nationals!

A teacher more problematic than the students just showed up...

Give it a rest! How many times do I have to tell you I refuse?

You can't!

Why can't I?!

However, I'm not some demon!

If you can beat me, then I'll give up on you.

Let's settle it fair and square on the track!

Now it's interesting!

You're on!

Track and Field Coach

Takagi

Itadori

Is it "fair and square" to rewrite a student's club application?

What's with this rugby field?

Is there a dead body buried here or something?

Even if there is,

I'm surprised to see one this high-leveled.

That's probably a grade 2 curse.

Must be that cursed object's influence.

No Unauthorized Entry

Damn it.

Its presence is too strong to pin down.

It feels like it's close by, but it could still be far away, too.

This special-grade cursed object is a serious pain.

Who could have moved it?

Where is it now?

Over here!

Coach Takagi is taking on Itadori from West Middle!

Wow, what are they competing in?

Yeah!

Fourteen meters!

*Japan's National Record

Wow, Takagi's still got it!

Itadori! Itadori!

What're you gonna do, Itadori?!

Hey, is Itadori famous or something?

They're probably tall tales, but I heard he beat all stages of Ninja Warrior,

and that he's the reincarnation of Mirko Cro Cop.

But Mirko's not even dead yet.

Still, he earned the nickname "Tiger of West Middle."

Lame.

Hey, can I just throw this however I want?

Yep. I won't call any fouls, so throw however you please.

Sorry.

I wanted to demonstrate how serious I am by intentionally

choosing something that isn't your forte—

Uh, roughly thirty meters.

*World Record

Yeah, I win!

He's more gorilla than tiger, isn't he?

That was a pitcher's throw.

Itadori, you'd do well on a sports team.

You don't have to force yourself to stay in our occult club, y'know.

Huh?

But as much as you two love scary things,

you couldn't go to haunted places without me, could you?

Shiver

Tremble

3 Days Ago

We're scared because we like it.

Yay!

Besides, this school requires everyone to be in a club, right?

I couldn't keep up with this.

You don't have to do anything! You can be a ghost member!

Occult Phenomenon Research Club

We're the occult club, after all!

I did say that.

I want to be able to go home by 5 PM for my own reasons.

So if it's okay with you, I'd like to stay.

I like the atmosphere of the occult club a lot.

Well, if that's how it is, we don't mind.

Yeah.

That guy's incredible.

He pulled that off without any cursed energy.

I wonder if he's like Zenin-senpai...

Oh, it's already half past four!

Well, Coach, I've got stuff to do! Later!

The presence of a cursed object!

Hey, you!

He's way too fast!

I heard he can run fifty meters in three seconds.

Is he a car?

*World Record 5.47s+

Sugisawa Hospital

Itadori

Saitou

I told you not to come.

Stop buying flowers to bring with you all the time.

You always give me that.

Besides, these aren't for you. They're for the nurses.

All the more reason not to, you fool!

And what about your club?

Go to your club! Your club!

Oh, chill out.

It ends before 5 PM.

I wouldn't be visiting you if I didn't have the free time.

Good.

Then listen to me, since I've got free time, too.

Not interested.

Just listen well.

There's something I want to tell you before the end.

It's about your parents.

I said I'm not interested.

Grandpa, could stop trying to act all cool before you die?

Every man wants to go out in style, you know!

Get a clue, you useless grandson!

Quit snapping over everything.

You can just be yourself.

Tsk. Lax upbringing.

Yuuji.

Hmm?

You're a strong kid, so help others.

Even if it's only those closest to you, just save the people you can.

It's okay if you lose your way,

and don't worry about whether they'll thank you or not.

Just save as many people as you can, even if it's only one.

When you die, you should be surrounded by people.

Don't end up like me.

Grandpa?

Nurse Call

Matsumoto

Hanai

Eguchi

Akita

Itadori

Kosaka

Yes, what's the matter?

Hello?

Itadori-san?!

Hello?

My grandpa... is dead.

Notification of Death

Okay.

That's all of the necessary paperwork.

Okay. Thank you for everything.

Are you sure you're okay?

Well, this is my first time dealing with something like this,

so it doesn't feel real yet.

Grandpa would snap if I kept moping around forever, though,

so I'll just have to laugh as I roast him up.

Phrasing!

Itadori Yuuji, right?

I'm Fushiguro from Jujutsu Tech.

I'd like to have a word with you.

Now.

Um, I'm in mourning right now.

Sorry, but there isn't time.

The cursed object you possess is very dangerous.

Hand it over to me right now.

Cursed object?

This.

Oh, yeah, yeah. I found that.

I don't mind either way, but my senpai took a liking to it.

What do you mean, "dangerous"?

The number of unexplained deaths and missing persons

within Japan exceeds 10,000 a year on average.

4th-grade Girl Commits Suicide. Bullying Suspected. Suicide Note Read, "They Told Me to Die."

Head of Nursing Home in Mifune Ward Stabbed to Death. Former Patient Unindicted Once Again

Most of those are the result of curses.

Curses?

I don't care if you believe in them or not.

They're real.

I'll go on.

Large pools of negative energy form especially easily in schools, hospitals, and so on.

Hardship, regret, shame...

The negative emotions of mankind become the source of curses.

That's why most schools secretly keep a cursed object such as a protective talisman.

The object you found is one of them.

If it's protecting us, shouldn't we be grateful for it?

Let me finish.

Placing a cursed object of greater evil

is a deadly poison that keeps other curses away.

It's a bad practice that only claims to protect.

Over the years, its seal weakens,

and then it becomes bait to lure in and fatten up other curses.

The object you found

is a dangerous one, classified as special-grade.

Hand it over before people start dying.

Hey, I already said I don't mind that.

So go tell it to my senpai.

It's empty?

I was just following the taint clinging to the box?!

Where are the contents?!

I already told you, my senpai... have it...

What?

Actually, they were talking about removing the talisman from it tonight at the school.

What? Is that bad?

It's worse than bad.

They're going to die.

I can't get it off.

Did we really need to sneak in to do this?

I'm turning on the lights.

No! The atmosphere's important!

Enjoying the thrill is in the spirit of the occult club, isn't it?

It's not like anything's going to happen, anyway.

Oh, it came off!

A human finger?

Is it real?

Is this...

What is this?

Do talismans come off that easily?

No, it's impossible for people who lack cursed energy.

Normally.

Go right! It's a shortcut!

This time the object itself is too strong.

The seal is ancient. It might as well be plain paper.

I still don't get all this stuff about curses.

Where are they?

Fourth floor!

What is this pressure?

You stay here.

I'm coming, too!

It's dangerous, right?

I've only known them a few months,

but they're my friends. I can't just stand by!

Stay here.

Occult Phenomenon Research Club

What time is it?

The hour hand is at eleven.

What is that monster?

S-Sasaki...

Iguchi? Thank goodness! Where have you—

Help me...

What time is it?

The curse has been unleashed!

Its presence is still all over the place!

Slurp, slurp.

Out of the way!

Demon Dogs!

Slurp.

You can eat it.

Am I just going to wait here like he told me to?

What am I so afraid of?

They're going to die.

That's right.

I can sense death all the way out here.

I'm afraid of dying.

Was I afraid of it then?

It didn't feel like I was, though.

I didn't cry because I was scared.

I was just a little sad.

But my grandpa's death and the death I'm facing now...

How are they any different?

You're a strong kid, so help others.

The curses are growing in number.

They're close.

Found them.

He was short-tempered and stubborn.

No one but me ever paid him a visit.

"Don't end up like me," huh?

That's true.

Damn it! Is it trying to swallow her along with the cursed object?!

I'm not gonna make it!

Itadori!

I think you had a proper death, Grandpa.

But...

This death...

is wrong!

So this is a curse?

Not what I was expecting.

I want to ask you what you're doing here,

but good job.

Why so haughty?

By the way, what's that munching on the curse?

My shikigami.

You can see them, then?

Normally a curse can't be seen.

Not unless you're on the verge of death or in special places like this.

Yeah, that makes sense.

I've never seen a ghost or anything before tonight.

You're not scared, are you?

Well, I was scared for a bit.

But did you know?

People really can die.

Huh?

So I at least want the people I know to have proper deaths.

Not that I really get it myself.

Whoa.

This it?

Yeah.

That's the special-grade cursed object, Ryoumen Sukuna's finger.

It's a miracle it didn't get swallowed.

Why would anything eat it?

Does it taste good?

Don't be stupid.

You'd do it to gain stronger cursed energy.

It's dangerous, so hand it over already.

Sure, sure.

Run!

Fushiguro!

Nue!

Damn it, I can't think straight.

Itadori!

Why can't you understand to take those two and run?!

You're in big trouble yourself!

Only curses can exorcise other curses!

You can't beat it!

Is this the time to be saying that?!

You're going to die at this rate!

If I went home now, I'd be having nightmares!

Besides,

I have my own...

Help others.

...troublesome curse already!

You idiot!

Hand it over to me or you'll be eaten, too!

Why would anything eat it?

Does it taste good?

Don't be stupid.

You'd do it to gain stronger cursed energy.

There is a way to save everyone!

I just need some cursed energy, right, Fushiguro?!

Don't!

Don't do it!

Ryoumen Sukuna's finger!

That's a special-grade cursed object!

It's a deadly poison! He'll die for sure!

But there's a one in a million...

a one in a million chance...

Ah, I knew it!

The light feels best in the flesh!

This is the worst!

A one-in-a-million-chance, worst-case outcome!

The special-grade cursed object has incarnated!

A cursed spirit's flesh is so boring.

Where are the people? The women?!

What a wonderful era to be in.

Women and children are crawling everywhere like maggots.

Marvelous!

It'll be a massacre!

What do you think you're doing with my body?

Give it back.

How are you able to move?

I mean, it's my body.

He's suppressing me?

Don't move.

You're no longer human.

Under Jujutsu regulations, Itadori Yuuji,

I will exorcise you as a curse!
