Studio MAPPA took on the animation for both the TV anime seasons and the movie of the franchise, with Crunchyroll streaming the series. The plot revolves around Yuji Itadori, a boy with extraordinary physical prowess, who joins a school of jujutsu sorcerers following an encounter with Megumi Fushiguro, Satoru Gojo, and Sukuna Ryomen. To postpone his execution for consuming one of Sukuna's fingers, Yuji embarks on a mission to locate and consume the remaining 19 fingers of the 'greatest sorcerer in history' to eliminate him. However, their plan encounters unexpected hurdles.
