2020-06-15
Hello everyone. The time has come finally…… I expected this to come but I didn’t think it would be this early…… I’m Otaku Republic’s Boss!
Hello everyone! Yep, it was quite early, huh~!! They announced it early and the day when it airs is early too…… It’s Saori from Otaku Republic!
So today! We’ll feature Sorcery Fight (呪術廻戦), starting airing in October, 2020!

【Congrats! Animated!】Anime “Sorcery Fight” Will Start Airing in October! Here’s a Five-Minute Recap for the Outline and Chara!

What Is Jujutsu Kaisen (Sorcery Fight, 呪術廻戦)?

It’s written and illustrated by Akutami Gege-Sensei.
It’s a dark-fantasy action battle manga series, serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump since March, 2018. Eleven volumes have been released as of June, 2020 and this title has received various awards such as the BEST comics by the national bookstore clerks or the BEST comics sold at TSUTAYA by the customers in 2019.
It’s a Now-Hot title, having run over 4,500,000 copies as of May, 2020.
To me, it’s relatively new among all the serialized manga in Weekly Shonen Jump. (Even though it has only released ten volumes), it’s got a chance to be animated, yeah, congrats!
By the way, I have featured Sorcery Fight in the previous article so check that out too! I especially focused on the outline of episode 1 (under my subjectivity) so check it out!

Itadori Yuuji
虎杖 悠仁

https://otakurepublic.com/product/tag_page.html?tags=557841
He is the main protagonist and a first-year at high school.
He is just a normal boy except that he has a superhuman physical strength. He doesn’t feel any spiritual things, either. At night when his grandfather (his only family member) passed away, he found out that the members of the Occult Club, which he also joined, were being attacked by the “curse.”
Ryoumen Sukuna’s finger was the one that caused the curse. So Yuuji swallowed it and drove it away by acquiring Juryoku (cused power).
However, Ryoumen Sukuna was such a strong spirit that it had been called a legendary spirit, which nobody had ruined nor sealed. Itadori Yuuji, however, swallowed it, which made all the sorcerers think he was a “threatening” individual. The sorcerers were going to execute him, when Gojou Satoru suggested that “they should execute him after he swallows the rest of Ryoumen Sukuna’s fingers.”
Now he has gotten an extension time until he gets executed. Following what his grandfather told him before he passed away, Itadori Yuuji is assigned in a duty where he finds the rest of Ryoumen Sukuna’s fingers, while going to the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical School (for the Shamans) so he can control his cursed power.

Fushiguro Megumi

He is a first-year student at the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical School (for the Shamans), and has a high ability as a Shaman even certified as the Grade 2.
He met Itadori Yuuji when he was investigating Ryoumen Sukuna’s fingers so he knows what has happened to him.
Always being serious, he behaves calmly when it comes to the battles. He usually has a curt attitude but when he knew that Yuuji would get executed, he became so emotional that he raised an objection, saying “I don’t want him to die”, especially because he was saved by Yuuji.
He creates Shikigami, processing ten at once, accordingly. He is from the famous Shaman family so he is expected to be a great Shaman both from school and family.

Kugisaki Nobara
釘崎 野薔薇

She is a first-year at the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical School(for the Shamans), coming from the county side of Japan.
Just because she didn’t like the country side and wanted to live in the city, she transferred to this school from her hometown which takes her four hours to Tokyo. Another reason is that she can get paid as a student at this school. She tends to shows her emotions, being very strong-willed. Even though she has a sharp tongue, she is always proud of herself and asserts “she will do at the risk of her life, being herself.”
She uses the hammer to hammer the nails, hits the nails and fires them like projectiles. She can even hammer the nails into the straw doll for her technique (both a long and a short distance). Her fans call her “Aniki” (big brother) since her main fighting style is a hand-to-hand battle and she always makes bullish remarks.

Gojou Satoru
五条 悟

https://otakurepublic.com/product/tag_page.html?tags=557842
He is a homeroom teacher of the first-year students at the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical School (for the Shamans), and said to be one of the four strongest sorcerers (the top level) in Japan. His family members are also well-known for the “strongest sorcerers”.
He is usually nonchalant and playful towards people, lacking strictness and moral tone. However, when it comes to the duties, he always tries not to sacrifice anybody while he deals with things very calmly, knowing that somebody has to be sacrificed. He is also a complex individual, suggesting that they should extend Itadori Yuuji’s execution, saying “No one should take away the students’ right to have youth.”
His cursed technique is to create the “infinity” in reality. He can keep away the enemies, who get close to him by creating infinity between them.
He manages various techniques such as producing similar black hall, making use of the “infinity” power, generating an explosive energy instantly and destroying enemies’ mind, forcing them to use the “infinity.”
However, any technique are very dangerous, requiring a super sensitive control. If he messes up, he is to cause enormous damages. He also manages his students (even though he looks like he’s doing it half way), while playing an active role fighting as the strongest sorcerer.
As for Sorcery Fight, it’s highly rated not only for its chara setting but also for the battle scenes by each chara. So I really want to watch it by animation too!
I wonder until which episode it is going to be animated~. If you want to prepare for watching anime in October, why don’t you go get manga at our sister site, Manga Republic?
