The method Gojo devised left viewers stunned, with reactions such as "Unbelievable..." "He's like a monster," and "It's terrifying that he accomplished that on intuition," as well as "A genius's situational judgment is the optimal solution." Additionally, Gojo's intense presence, enhanced by the anime's unique portrayal, drew considerable attention.

The currently airing anime "Jujutsu Kaisen" is based on a manga of the same name by Gege Akutami, which has sold over 100 million copies in total. The story depicts the battle between "curses" born from human negative emotions and jujutsu sorcerers who exorcise them, and it begins to move significantly when Yuji Itadori (CV:Junya Enoki), who has come to share a body with "the king of curses" Ryomen Sukuna, transfers to "Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College", a "specialist anti-curse organization".

The first season of the TV anime, which started in October 2020, was met with great acclaim not only domestically but also worldwide. The second season, which aired from July to December 2023, depicted the story of "Hidden Inventory / Premature Death," focusing on the high school days of "the strongest jujutsu sorcerer" Satoru Gojo and the "most evil curse user" Suguru Geto (CV:Takahiro Sakurai), as well as the "Shibuya Incident," which continues the timeline from the first season. Production is also underway for the sequel "Culling Game," and on May 30, 2025, the "Jujutsu Kaisen Hidden Inventory/ Premature Death Compilation Movie" will be released.
