Notes From Your BooksellerOn the surface, it's all the devastating battles and delightful characters Jujutsu Kaisen has to offer, but underneath, it's a haunting standalone story about the regret that clings to us. It's the perfect launching point to enter Akutami's ongoing series, or the ideal complement while you're waiting for the next in the series.
Yuta Okkotsu is a nervous high school student who is suffering from a serious problem—his childhood friend Rika has turned into a Curse and won't leave him alone. Since Rika is no ordinary Curse, his plight is noticed by Satoru Gojo, a teacher at Jujutsu High, a school where fledgling exorcists learn how to combat Curses. Gojo convinces Yuta to enroll, but can he learn enough in time to confront the Curse that haunts him?
