✖
Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon, and we re sure more than a few fans of Yuji Itadori and his fellow students of Jujutsu Tech will be clamoring to read the upcoming prequel that has been announced for release early next year! With Studio MAPPA responsible for the first season of
Jujutsu
Kaisen, it s clear that the adventures of Yuji and company won t be ending any time soon in either the anime or the manga!
Jujutsu Kaisen tells the story of high schooler Yuji Itadori who finds himself dragged into a world of curses and supernatural monsters while struggling with the idea of sharing his body with one of the most powerful demonic influences plaguing his world. With the sorcerers of Jujutsu Tech informing Yuji that he must find the dismembered fingers of the cursed being Sukuna, who has earned his title as undisputed King of Curses , a brand new terrifying world is now at his fingertips!
“Narrow-minded” is an episode that proves what I ve been saying about
Jujutsu Kaisen from the beginning: A bit of style, personality, and heart all go a long way towards turning what otherwise might have been a dull retread of a story into an entertaining experience. After Nanami and Mahito take just a couple of minutes to wrap-up their stalemate brawl, the rest of the episode is devoted to Yuuji and Junpei bonding with one another over an impromptu bro-date at Junpei s place. It isn t at all difficult to see where this is headed: Yuuji s commitment to being a generally decent and cool dude is enough to sway Junpei ever so slightly from his dark path as Mahito s apprentice, and while it is genuinely sweet to see Junpei so flustered at having made his first ever genuine friend, he s obviously being built up as a rival and nemesis for Yuuji. The show doesn t introduce Junpei s cool, lackadaisical mother for nothing, after all; the woman is practically riddled with death flags fr
