JUJU SCROLL
MOVIE VERSION

I heard that if you eat mochi
before going to see a movie,

it makes you less likely to go to the bathroom during.

Huh? I heard eating plenty of salt was good for that.

Want some popcorn?

I told you to get the caramel kind!

You didn't contribute a single yen,
so you don't get any right to decide.

That's outrageous!

Oh, HR! Oh, HR!

The power harassment here is awful,

so send a different long-haired guy.

One you might find working in a beauty parlor!

- Send a different wannabe host too.
- Hey!

By the way,
the theory is that you're less,

likely to use the bathroom because the digest of mochi produces

glycogen, which draws water into cells,

but there's no proof to it.

That's our witch doctor for you!

I hope you get sent to Black Jack!

Black Jack graduated medical school,
so why is he unlicensed anyway?

I guess we'll learn the answer to that in this movie.

Believe me or don't, it's up to you.

I should probably mention that the "witch" part
of "witch doctor" also refers to actual jujutsu sorcery.

Seriously?!

Things were busy that summer.

The frequent disasters of the
past year probably played a role,

but cursed spirits were
springing up like maggots.

Exorcise, absorb.

Over and over.

Exorcise.

Absorb.

No one else understands

what cursed spirits taste like.

It's like swallowing a dirty rag that's
been used to clean up shit and vomit.

Exorcise.

Absorb.

"What I witnessed isn't uncommon."

"I understood the ugliness of the masses,

and still chose to be a
jujutsu sorcerer who saves others."

That's what I've been telling
myself ever since that day.

Ever since that day.

JUNE 6TH 2006

Apparently, this used to be
the home of the president

of a company managing a local
chain of barbecue restaurants.

However, in July of last year,

the mad cow disease breakout dealt
a fatal blow to his restaurants,

so he committed suicide with his family
after they were buried under vast debt.

From then on, local rumors claimed
the president's home was haunted,

so local school kids, college students
from outside the prefecture,

job-hoppers, and others would visit
it as part of a test of courage,

and subsequently go missing.

Those rumors brought about more rumors,

and the damage just continued to spread.

Rumors do tend to spread rather
quickly around haunted spots.

They can spread at an unbelievable
pace nowadays, thanks to the Internet.

This all just means even more
work for us jujutsu sorcerers.

In addition to that, three grade school kids
went missing on their way home from school.

There's also a high chance
the families, police, colleagues,

and friends who trace the paths
of those who disappeared

will reach the mansion and
become victims themselves.

We have to sever the root of
this issue as soon as possible.

HQ sent us to investigate because
they reached the same conclusion.

Warning!
Entering These Premises Is Forbidden!
Many Have Gone Missing!

They're even paying my fees,
which aren't cheap.

Did you overcharge them again?

You make it sound so bad.

Call it negotiation.

We're here.

Let's go, then.

JUJUTSU KAISEN

Emerge from darkness, blacker than darkness.

Purify that—

There's no need for a veil.

Huh?

I don't sense the presence of any Curses.

The cause is almost certainly
inside the building.

You can cast the veil later if we
end up attacking it from outside.

...True.

It's unlocked.

Seems like something's blocking the door.

What is all this?

Mei-san.

It's here.

And it's all around us, too.

Let's get going.

I don't need that, but you do, right?

Thank you.

All right.

I-Incredible.

Oh, it still has electricity.

For now, let's have a
look inside the building.

I'll take this floor,

you take the second.

Huh? All by myself?

Is there a problem with that?

N-No, i-it's fine.

Off you go, then.

Okay.

This is the last one.

You could be the next big Scream Queen.

Jeez!

Please don't startle me like that!

You got startled all on your own.

Are you done exploring the first floor?

This is the first floor.

Huh?

I was walking down
the first floor hallway.

What? But...

I know I entered a room
at the end of the hallway...

A box of candy.

A bag of potato chips.

Cans.

A backpack.

A sweatshirt.

I've already seen this three times.

And see these marks? I made
them on my way through here.

It would seem that we're already
in the belly of the beast.

Huh?

For real?

How long is this hallway?

We've been moving for thirty minutes,

so about four kilometers so far.

It's not an innate domain, is it?

It's not.

Those are manifestations
of the spirit's mindscape.

Which means...

This is a barrier.

Correct.

Most likely, the victims
were trapped inside this

and then killed by the cursed spirit.

Though, considering the
use of this technique,

the cursed spirit itself should be weak.

So if we can just escape this barrier...

Now, quiz time.

How would you break this, Utahime?

This hallway is repeating itself.

At first...

I thought...

I'm surprised you could touch them.

...it was shaped like a donut.

But we passed by four of
the marks you made, right?

When I calculated how many
paces apart they were, I got...

122,

203,

157,

and 270 paces.

So the spacing between marks was random.

I see.

The interval between
repetitions isn't standardized.

Which means that, most likely...

this barrier is patching spaces together.

So if we both run down the hallway
at top speed, then at some point...

It'll break.

Close. Ninety points.

D'oh.

What's the remaining ten?

When we run, we do so in opposite
directions at the same time.

I get it!

So my patching theory was correct,

and if we quickly advance
in different directions,

that makes it harder for the cursed
spirit to hold the barrier together.

And once we have that opening,
we might be able to get out.

One hundred points.

Then, with that settled...

If this works, I'll be expecting a promotion.

How much do you have in savings?

What?

Never mind. I'll think about it.

Right!

Okay... Ready, set...

Go!

We did it!

Wait, wha—

I'm here to save you,

Utahime.

JUJUTSU KAISEN - HIDDEN INVENTORY
/PREMATURE DEATH - MOVIE VERSION

JUJUTSU HIGH
SECOND YEAR
SATORU GOJO

Are you crying?

I'm not crying!
SECOND GRADE
SORCERER
IORI UTAHIME

And be more polite!

If I was crying, would you console me?

FIRST GRADE
SORCERER
MEI MEI

I'd certainly appreciate that.

Nah, you wouldn't cry, Mei-san.

You're strong.

That so?

Gojo! You listen here!

I don't need your hel—

Don't swallow it.

I'll absorb it later.

Satoru, it's not nice to pick on the weak.

JUJUTSU HIGH
SECOND YEAR
GETO SUGURU

What kind of idiot picks on the strong?

You're the one fanning the flames
like it comes naturally, Geto-kun.

Utahime-senpai!

Are you okay?

Shoko!
JUJUTSU HIGH
SECOND YEAR
IEIRI SHOKO

I was worried about you.

We hadn't heard from you for two whole days.

Shoko!

Shoko! Don't let yourself
turn out like those two!

I won't turn into trash like them.

SAID TRASH

The path Utahime walked is falling apart.

Shut up.

Wait, two days?

Ah, was the cursed spirit's barrier
one of those that messes with time?

They're rare, but they
do happen now and then.

I thought it was odd,
since Mei-san was with you.

Seems like it was.

Something the matter?

No. Just realized that means
it was actually two days' labor,

and that means extra fees paid out to me.

She's planning to overcharge again.

That aside, what about the veil, you three?

Next, the explosion that occurred
yesterday in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka.

One of you three said they
would cast the veil themselves

and left your assistant
supervisor behind, didn't you?

And then you forgot the veil.

FIRST GRADE
SORCERER
YAGA MASAMICHI

Come forward.

Sensei!

Why don't we stop this hunt for the culprit?!

So it was you, Satoru.

DISCIPLINE

Is a veil that necessary in the first place?

It's not like it matters if
normies see or not, right?

They can't see cursed spirits
or cursed techniques, anyway.

Of course it's not good for them to see.

The strongest deterrent
against the outbreak

of a cursed spirit is the
mental calm of the populace.

That's exactly why we have to conceal

the threats they can't even
see as much as possible.

And that's not all—

Yeah, yeah, I get it.

Looking out for the weak
is so exhausting, honestly.

Survival of the weakest.

That's how a society should be.

The weak help each other and
discourage any who are too strong.

Listen, Satoru.

Jujutsu exists to protect
non-jujutsu sorcerers.

Is that your moral argument?

I hate moral arguments.

What?

Assigning reasons and
responsibility to strength

is what those who are weak do.

Quit making yourself feel
better by spouting bullshit.

Blegh.

Run for it.

Want to take this outside, Satoru?

You feeling lonely?

Go by yourself.

How long are you going
to keep fooling around?

Where did Shoko go?

Who knows?

Bathroom, probably.

Whatever.

This mission is being assigned to you two.

What are those faces for?

Nothing.

Frankly, I think it's too much for you,

but Tengen-sama asked for you specifically.

Your mission has two goals.

The Star Plasma Vessel

is the one compatible with Tengen-sama.

You are to escort that girl and erase her.

Escort a brat and erase her?

That's right.

Have you finally gone senile?

It is spring.

He's probably got his head full
with being the next principal.

Jokes aside, though—

I'll be the one to decide
if I let that off as a joke.

Is this about renewing
Tengen-sama's technique?

What's that?

What?

Tengen-sama possesses the
cursed technique of Immortality,

but it is not Eternal Youth.

It wouldn't be an issue
if all he did was get older,

but after his body ages to a certain point,

the cursed technique
begins rewriting his body.

Evolution.

He'll cease to be human and become
a higher form of existence.

What's wrong with that?

Sounds cool.

According to Tengen-sama,

those who reach that state
of being have no will.

It means Tengen-sama would
cease to be Tengen-sama.

TOKYO JUJUTSU HIGH SCHOOL
All the jujutsu schools,

the barriers that form the
foundation of jujutsu society,

the many barrier techniques
of the assistant supervisors...

They're all being strengthened by Tengen-sama.

Without the aid of his power,

we could hardly maintain security
or clean up after missions.

In the worst-case scenario,

Tengen-sama could even become
a threat to mankind.

That's why, every 500 years,
he finds the Plasma Star Vessel—

someone who is compatible with him—

and assimilates them,
overwriting the information of their body.

By renewing his body,

he resets his cursed
technique back to the start

and avoids Evolution.

I get it.

It would be fine if he turned
into MetalGreymon,

but we can't have him
becoming SkullGreymon.

So we have him start over from Koromon.

What? Yeah, sure, that works.

The Star Plasma Vessel's
location has been leaked.

Right now, there are two major
groups after the young girl's life.

One is the Curse User Group Q,

which seeks to upend jujutsu society
with Tengen-sama's rampage.

The other is the Star Religious
Group, also known as the

"Time Vessel Association,"
which worships Tengen-sama as a god.

Tengen-sama will assimilate the
Star Plasma Vessel two days from now.

You are to protect the girl until then and
ensure that she reaches Tengen-sama!

If you fail, the effects will ripple
throughout even normal society!

Don't forget that!

Yeah, but you know,

I get why Curse User Group Q
would be after her,

but why would this Star Religious
Group want to kill a brat?

Their object of worship is
the pure form of Tengen-sama.

Allowing the Star Plasma Vessel—

in their minds, an impurity—
to blend into him is unforgivable.

The Star Religious Group is an
organization of non-sorcerers.

I don't think we need to pay them any mind.

The ones to be wary of are Q.

Well, I'm sure it'll be fine.

We're the strongest, after all.

That's why Tengen-sama asked
for us specifically, right?

What is it?

You know, Satoru...

I've been wanting to say this for a while,

but you should stop being
so full of yourself.

Huh?!

Especially when you're
addressing your superiors.

We might end up meeting
Tengen-sama, after all.

You should be more polite and humble.

You'd scare your juniors less, too.

Hah!

Screw that!

Come on, Satoru.

Whatever.

I'll bring it up again later.

Coming.

Huh?

You alive?

I am, at least.

You think we'll be blamed
if the brat died from that?

Ah

Don't blame me.

If you must hate someone, hate Tengen.

Q
COMBATANT
KOKUN

Wha—

Would you please stop making us stand out?

We just got chewed out
for that this morning.

So this girl is the Star Plasma Vessel?

I know those uniforms. You're
sorcerers from Jujutsu High, right?

Hand over the kid.

Or I'll kill you.

Can't hear you.

Come closer and talk.

Man, barely safe.

Wonderful.

You're Gojo Satoru, right?

Q
COMBATANT
BAYER

You're famous.

I hear you're strong.

Let me find out if the rumors are true.

I'm down for that, but let's set some rules.

Rules?

I don't want to get yelled
at for going overboard.

So if you cry and apologize,
I won't kill you.

That's our rule.

Damn brat.

It's started.

The Star Religious Group doesn't have the
power to fight against jujutsu sorcerers.

But they can pay very well.

That I guarantee.

How about it, Zen'in?

Want to get in on the assassination
of the Star Plasma Vessel?

I'm not a Zen'in anymore.

I took my wife's name.

It's Fushiguro now.

But sure.

Count me in.

Please!

Please listen to me!

I was wrong!

I'm sorry!

I'm really sorry!

Let's kiss!

Huh?!

Let's kiss!

I'll pull out of this job!

I'll quit being a curse user, too!

Let's kiss!

C'mon, kiss!

Of course I'll quit Q, too!

I know! I'll go back to the
countryside and farm rice!

I know you can hear me!

Like a curse user could cut it as a farmer.

You can hear me!

Damn student acting all condescending!

Lick, lick.

But Bayer-san is here, too!

He's Q's strongest combatant!

He'll take care of you and these things!

Hey.

Is this your "Bayer"?

Huh?

That's him.

Q
DEPARTURE OF TOP COMBATANT,
BAYER, LEADS TO ORGANIZATION'S COLLAPSE

And all the boats are off at once.

From the inside, we have Numbers
1, 2, 4, 5, 3, and 6 starting the race.

They're off with a beautiful straight shot.

And just what are you doing after
suddenly disappearing on me?

Getting more money.

I've never seen you win once.

What about your job?

Oh, give it a rest.

You're talking like I'm unemployed.

Because you are.

As a mediator, it's my duty to report
how the job's going to the client.

I'm up against the Gojo clan's kid.

I wouldn't be able to do anything
if I just popped up in front of him.

I have to wear him down
using some idiots first.

You go do your own damn job.

Already did, dumbass.

What were you thinking,
letting go of the entire deposit?

I told you, wearing him down.

Don't you worry. All that
money will come back to me.

Just like with this race.

Number 6, Hateno, crosses the line first!

Number 1, Doguchi, finishes next!

Following them in third is Number 2, Matsuda.

In fourth is Number 4, Nakaoka.

Tsk.

In fifth is Number 3, Tanaka.
You're not cut out for making easy money.

In sixth is Number 5,
Okazaki, finishing last!

Number 6, Hateno, has given us an amazing
comeback to watch in his first race!

I'm counting on you, Sorcerer Killer.

That was our third race of the day.

Oh, right.

How's Megumi doing?

Who's that?

Should we get her to a doctor?

I wish I could use reverse
cursed energy like Shoko.

Yeah, that's impossible.

I can't understand a word she says about it.

You go "fwoo," then "hyoi."

Fwoo, hyoi. Get it?

You've got no sense for this.

You're awake.

You scum!

If you want to kill me,
you'll be the one to die first!

Riko-chan, calm down.

We're not with the group that attacked you.

Liar!

You have the face of a liar!

Your bangs are weird, too!

GRIND

This is disrespectful!

P-Please stop it!

Kuroi!

Young lady, these men are our allies.

Kuroi, what are you riding on?

This is thanks to Bangs Guy's technique.

Could you please not call me that?

It's Curse Manipulation.

As the name suggests, I can absorb
and manipulate cursed spirits.

This brat is more aggressive
than I expected.

I was trying to figure out
how to be considerate,

thinking she'd be more sentimental
about the assimilation thing.

Hmph!

A commoner's way of thinking!

Huh?!

Listen up!

Tengen-sama is me, and I am Tengen-sama!

Some might mistake
assimilation for death, as you do,

but there's a big difference!

I might become Tengen-sama
through the assimilation,

but Tengen-sama will also become me!

My will! My heart!

My soul will continue to live
on after the assimilation!

You changed your home screen?

To Inoue Waka.

Listen to me!

I bet you don't have many
friends if you talk like that.

We won't have to feel bad sending you off.

I talk normally at school!

School!

Kuroi, what time is it?!

It's not yet noon. But I think going to school—

Be quiet!

I said I'm going, and I'm going!

Huh?!

Surely it'd be safer to head
back to Jujutsu High at once!

As much as I want to do that,
this is an order from Tengen-sama.

He said to fulfill all of
Amanai Riko's demands.

Tsk.

Lax upbringing at its finest.

Don't be like that, Satoru.

Despite what she may say,

after the assimilation, she'll spend
her whole life as Tengen-sama

in the deepest floor of Jujutsu High,
as the foundation of all barriers.

She won't be able to see her friends,
family, or anyone precious to her ever again.

Riko!

Our next class is in a different room.

Okay!

Let her do what she wants.

That's part of our mission.

Riko-sama has no family.

They were in an accident when she was little.

I've taken care of her ever since then.

So I want her to at least have
what time she can with her friends.

So you're her family, then.

Yes.

Suguru.

How're the cursed spirits you
sent to watch over her?

I just wish I could share my senses
with them like Mei-san does.

Even so, they'll let us know as
soon as anything unusual happens.

Satoru.

Hurry to Riko-chan's side.

Huh?

Two have been exorcised.

Who will be the ace of the next generation?

This will be an important match
to help us find out.

Number 6's final position
is finally starting to solidify.

Now, the fifth race, the one all eyes
are focused on, is about to begin.

AMANAI RIKO
RENCHOKU GIRLS' ACADEMY
DEAD OR ALIVE

Where's Amanai?!

She has music this period,

so either the music room or the chapel.

Chapel?!

It changes depending on what
the music teacher wants.

Also, this is a missionary school.

Satoru, you take the chapel.

Kuroi-san, take the music room.

I'll take the two unknowns.

Roger that.

I told you not to follow me!

What if my friends see you?!

I'm sorry.

I even told her to text us
when she was on the move.

This is why I told that brat to stay within
eyeshot so we could protect her!

And they're off.

Numbers 1 and 2 make a good start,
favoring the inside.

Number 3 trails a bit behind.

What?

Taking the lead at the first mark of
the first lap is Number 2, Yamazaki.

They didn't go back to Jujutsu High?

Lucky me.

Behind him is Number 1, Masaki.

They're followed by Number 3, Kawano.

Now the ones drawn to the bounty will
be reasonable fools instead of just fools.

Then comes Number 4, Nomiya, Number 5,
Mifune, and in last is Number 6, Funegi.

Are you sure?

About what?

The bounty is the thirty-million deposit
that the Star Religious Group paid you.

If they kill the Star Plasma Vessel,
the deposit is gone,

and worst-case, you might not
get the full reward, either.

They might start saying
they could have posted

a bounty from the start
instead of hiring you.

Gojo Satoru is with the girl.

He's the first in several
centuries to possess both

the Six Eyes and the Limitless technique.

No one can kill the Star Plasma
Vessel as long as he's nearby.

Not even you?

Number 3, Kawano,
is making a rushing comeback!

He's pulled into first place!

Who knows?

He's managed to take the lead twice now.

For now, we'll leave the bounty
up for another 47 hours,

This race has been
filled with ups and downs.

Can Number 3, Kawano,
defend his position at the top?

and let the fools wear down Gojo
and the sorcerers with him.

The race is now entering its third lap.

Hey!

Hold it right there!

Nah, never mind.

They won't be able to kill the
Star Plasma Vessel, of course,

so they're working for free.

It's a good thing you put
that time limit on it.

The curse users are
quickly flocking to them.

That's not the only reason.

Eh?

Just talking to myself.

What?!

Number 3, Kawano, just lost his balance,
and Number 2, Yamazaki, is passing him!

Number 3 has drifted far to the outside,

I'll head out soon enough.

Looks like things are developing
faster than I expected.
but he's righted his boat
and is chasing after them!

But there is now a considerable
gap between them!

Make sure you get that
thirty million back for me.

Number 2, Yamazaki, crosses the goal first!

Number 5, Mifune, crosses next.

Don't be ridiculous.

This wasn't your average
anonymous message board.
Number 1, Masaki, crosses next,
followed by Number 3, Kawano.

Following them is Number 4, Nomiya,
and last is Number 6, Funegi.
- There are posting fees, handling fees, and—

- Signal's dropping.

Hey!

That bastard.

Are the unknowns remnants of Q?

This will be a little troublesome if they've
been sent by the Star Religious Group.

That uniform...

As soon as he saw the Jujutsu High
uniform, he anticipated a fight against

multiple opponents and set
shikigami in front of and behind him.

He's experienced.

No catalyst?!

Their cursed energy is different
from the sorcerer's, too.

It couldn't be...

Curse Manipulation?!

Correct.

Living a long life has its perks, I see.

Nah, it's not worth
living too long, you know.

It costs money just to stay alive.

His cursed technique is stronger than mine.

However, he thinks like
a typical shikigami user.

Add his youth on top of that,

and I can tell exactly what he's thinking.

I knew it.

Types like him never
step forward themselves.

Close combat is his weakness!

Plus, he thinks a shikigami user
like me would never get close to him.

He's someone who hates close
combat, and he isn't wary of it.

No one is easier to kill.

Looks like you're thinking up lots of plans,

but there's no point.

What?!

Those first two were to prevent
me from anticipating this?!

Now, that leaves one more.

You're mine!

Tasuke? Is that you, Tasuke?

My parents used all their time and money
on my well-behaved little brother.

They thought I was creepy
because I could see the unseen.

But Tasuke was my one and only friend,
who interacted with me without such fear.

It's been a long time.

Has it been over 50 years already?

Since the day you died—

I see now!

My life flashed before my eyes!

You lured me in!

Well, yeah.

You were itching to get in
close that whole time, right?

Those with a set means of victory

will easily jump on the chance
when you give them that opening.

More importantly, are you with Q?

Or the Star Religious Group?

Amanai!

Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wha...

What?!

Riko, you have a boyfriend?!

No! He's a cousin! Just a cousin!

You're a smooth operator.

I told you, he's not!

A high schooler?! He's so tall!

Hey, mister!

Take off your sunglasses!

Squee! He's so hot!

Such long lashes!

Hey.

Why are your eyes blue?

Could you pose for me?

Hey! Quit getting carried away!

All right, everyone! Quiet down!

This is disgraceful!

You know you're curious
about him, too, Sensei!

Yeah.

This is inappropriate.

Even if you are a relative,
you can't just barge in.

Oh, you'll have to forgive me.
It was an emergency.

Also, here. My phone number.

Hey! That's against the rules!

GRAAAH

Shut up! You don't get many chances
to meet people as a teacher!

The same is true for us, too!

I can't believe you're into younger men!
I've lost respect for you!

What?! You dissin' Hikaru Genji?!

What a lively school.

You idiot! I told you not to show
yourself before my friends!

Curse users attacked. Figure out the rest.

I'm floating?!

We're heading to Jujutsu High now.

You don't want you friends to
get caught up in this, do you?

Is that the thirty million?

The one with her is another sorcerer?

Her bodyguard, too, I bet.

What a sweet deal.

Thirty million for killing a kid
who's not even a sorcerer.

Maybe I'll have eel tonight?

Food always tastes best
after killing someone.

Are you from the Star Religious Group?

The people in Q wore even weirder outfits.

Are you a rookie?

If you're killing someone, do it without talking.

Too slow.

Don't you dare take anything from that girl.

I'll kill you.

What's this?

Well, aren't you strong?

Where's Riko-chan?

She left the school with Gojo-sama.

Then we should head that way, too.

This has gotten a bit troublesome.

So that really was the thirty million earlier.

A shikigami?!

No, it's not quite the same as a shikigami.

Satoru.

There's a bounty of thirty
million on Amanai's head?

Yeah. It was posted on an
underground site for curse users.

Apparently, the time limit is
11 AM the day after tomorrow.

Now things make sense.

Two, three, four... They all look the same.

Are they shikigami?

Jeez... And jujutsu sorcerers are
short-handed all year round.

If you want to change jobs,
we'll welcome you, old man.

Nah, public employment
ain't easy work, either.

Just hand over that brat and we'll be fine.

There's more! Five of them now!

What's so great about this brat?

What did you just do?

The shikigami isn't disappearing!

Which is the real one?!

They're not shikigami.

They're clones.

And each one is the real one.

The hell is this?!

Infinity.

It's Achilles and the Tortoise.

Huh?!

It's important to study, you know.

Yours is a cloning technique that allows
a maximum of five, including the original.

And you're always free to decide which
of the clones is the main body, right?

So if your main body is in danger,

you make a safe clone the main body.

That's a nice technique you have there.

I don't understand why you're so weak.

Are you unable to produce a clone
for a while after it's destroyed?

How do you know what my technique is?

Unfortunately for you,

I have good eyes.

You see, my technique

is like a convergent
series of infinite numbers.

Anything that approaches me
grows slower and slower,

and ultimately, it fails to ever reach me.

When I amplify my Limitless technique,

I get what you might call
a negative natural number.

It basically creates a
single imaginary apple.

Doing so causes everything around to
get sucked into that space, like you saw.

Though it's surprisingly inconvenient.

I can't create too large
a reaction near myself,

and if I start worrying
about the vectors, too,

controlling the cursed
energy becomes a real pain.

Basically, it's super exhausting.

But that's all just the proper
operation of the technique.

Protect your head.

This next one is the divergence of infinity.

My reverse cursed technique,

Red!

I failed!

I really thought I could do it that time.

Is this guy for real?

It's from Kuroi.

Wh-What do we do?!

Kuroi has...

Kuroi has been...

There's always a chance
the worst could happen.

You're much faster than me,

so go on ahead! Hurry to Riko's side!

I'm sorry. This was my mistake.

Really?

I don't think this even counts as a mistake.

I underestimated how much our
enemies would value Kuroi-san.

Their next move

will probably be offering to
arrange an exchange for her.

Something like trading Amanai for Kuroi-san,

or saying they'll kill Kuroi-san
if we don't kill Amanai.

But we have the leverage in any
negotiations since we have Amanai.

As long as they set up
the location for the deal,

we can make it work out.

I'm taking Amanai back to Jujutsu High now.

We can have Shoko or someone
stand in as her body double.

H-Hold on!

I'm going to this deal, too!

I still can't trust you two yet!

Huh?! You're still saying
that after all this, you—

Even if you do manage to save her...

What if Kuroi isn't back before
I assimilate with Tengen-sama?

I haven't...

I haven't even said goodbye to her!

The kidnapper will reach
out to us eventually.

If they seem like they're
smarter than we expect,

and bringing you with us is likely to
hurt Kuroi-san's chance of survival...

then we will leave you behind.

All right. That works.

In exchange,

if you get scared partway through and
want to go home, we'll just ignore you.

Bear that in mind.

Mensore!

OKINAWA

PROTECTION MISSION DAY 2

I can't believe I got captured
by the Star Religious Group,

and by a non-sorcerer at that.

I'm ashamed of myself.

You couldn't help it if they
caught you off-guard.

Part of the blame lies with me, too.

Was I really caught off-guard?

I thought I was on high alert
after the incident with Q.

Kuroi!

I still don't have much
recollection of being attacked.

And you all came here by plane?

Were you okay?

You weren't attacked?

Satoru has good eyes.

Before we took off, he checked over
all the passengers and staff,

as well as the inside
and outside of the plane.

And while we were in the air, I had
my cursed spirit keep watch outside.

It was safer than using a land route.

I'm more curious as to why

they designated Okinawa for the exchange.

Probably to buy time, right?

TRAVEL SCHEDULE

Even if they fail to kill Riko-sama,

they could keep her from making
tomorrow's full moon deadline.

If that were the goal,
ASSIMILATE WITH TENGEN-SAMA
AFTER SUNSET!
PROTECTION MISSION FINISHED

they would choose a rural area
with poor transit infrastructure.

You don't think they're planning
to take over the airport, do you?

Maybe so.

But we'll be fine.

We're not the only ones who came here.

Clearly this isn't a mission
fit for a first-year.

JUJUTSU HIGH
FIRST YEAR
NANAMI KENTO

I'm psyched, though!
JUJUTSU HIGH
FIRST YEAR
HAIBARA YU

I want to show off in front of Geto-san, too!

Besides, I hear our upperclassmen
are wearing themselves to the bone

to protect an innocent young girl!

So we have to give it our all, too!

If a typhoon rolls in and shuts down the
airports, our efforts will be for naught.

UPPERCLASSMAN WEARING HIMSELF TO THE BONE

Sea cucumber, sea cucumber!

Gross! That's so gross!

Should we really be sightseeing like this?

Satoru's the one who suggested it.

He's probably showing consideration
for Riko-chan, in his own way.

Though it is getting close...

Satoru! It's time.

Oh, it's that time already?

Boo.

Suguru, let's head back
tomorrow morning instead.

But...

The weather's holding steady, right?

Besides...

there are fewer curse users in
Okinawa than there are in Tokyo.

CURSE USERS

Let's keep it a little more serious, Satoru.

It's better if the time limit on the bounty
runs out while we're mid-flight, right?

Young lady, a starfish.

So it is!

Satoru.

You haven't released your technique
since yesterday, have you?

You haven't slept, either.

And you don't plan to sleep tonight, do you?

Are you sure we don't need
to go back to Jujutsu High?

It's not a problem.

Playing through 99 years of MomoTetsu
was far more draining.

Besides, you're here, too.

Nanami, they said they're
extending their stay another day!

You think something happened?!

TOKYO JUJUTSU HIGH, FOOTHILLS OF MT. MUSHIRO

PROTECTION MISSION DAY 3 15:00

Good work, everyone.

We're inside Jujutsu High's barrier now.

What a relief.

Yes.

Satoru.

You really worked hard this time.

I never wanna get stuck
babysitting a brat again.

Huh?

Impossible!

We're inside Jujutsu High's barrier!

Have we met before?

Don't worry about it.

I'm terrible at remembering guys' names, too.

I once went to see the brat born into
the Gojo clan with the Six Eyes on a lark.

Never before or after that

had anyone noticed me standing behind them.

That is why I wore him down...

until his senses dulled.

Satoru!

I'm fine.

I didn't make it in time with my
technique, but it missed my vitals.

I then strengthened myself
with cursed energy

so the blade couldn't be drawn out at all.

It was like passing a safety
pin through a knit sweater.

Seriously, I'm fine.

Prioritize Amanai first.

I'll deal with this guy.

Suguru, you two get her to Tengen-sama.

Satoru...

Be careful!

Let's go!

Right!

Who do you think you're talking to?

That's different from the
blade he stabbed me with.

And where did that
cursed spirit come from?

Too many unknowns, damn it!

The Star Plasma Vessel is gone.

I had hoped to take you down
with that earlier attack.

I guess I've gotten rusty.

The bounty on Amanai has already
been taken down, you idiot.

Because I took it down, prideful bastard.

When facing people
without openings like you,

you have to first create ups and
downs leading to several false goals.

I laughed when those Star Religious
Group men went to Okinawa.

It sucked that none of the
sorcerers around her died,

but if I hadn't set that
time limit on the bounty,

you wouldn't have released
your technique until the very end.

That so?

He's fast!

And not just that.

I knew there was something off about him!

He has zero cursed energy!

He has a Heavenly Pact
gifting him physical prowess!

I can't imagine anyone who knows
my technique coming without a plan.

Is that cursed tool your
precious trump card?

Sorry, but I won't let it get close!

Since he has no cursed energy,
I can't read his presence.

And I can't just rely on instinct.

There's that cursed spirit
wrapped around him.

I just need to follow its presence.

Even so, he's too damn fast!

Cursed Technique Amplification,

Maximum Output...

Blue!

Now there's no cover.

He can't launch surprise attacks.

Did he hide in the woods?

Are those...

Fly Heads?!

Was he keeping them inside
that cursed spirit?

So you're using Fly Heads like chaff.

Now I can't tell where he is.

He's created a blind spot.

I should use Blue again...

No, wait! He's after...

Amanai!

His intuition is keen enough
to sense me empty-handed.

There's no way your Six Eyes would overlook

the unusual cursed energy
oozing from this cursed tool.

Though that finally...

got you to focus on defense
with your technique.

The Special-Grade Cursed Tool,
Inverted Spear of Heaven.

Its effect is the forced release
of any active techniques.

I think...

I'm getting my edge back now.

Riko-sama.

This is as far as I go.

Riko-sama, please...

Please...

Kuroi, I love you!

I always have, and I always will!

Me, too!

I love you, too!

So this is...

Yeah.

We're in Tengen-sama's territory now.

This is the foundation of
the nation's key barriers,

The Main Hall of the Tombs of the Star.

Once you descend the stairs,

pass through the gate and continue
to the base of the big tree.

Then you'll be inside the special
barrier that's separate from

the barrier surrounding Jujutsu High.

Only those invited are able to enter it.

Tengen-sama will protect
you until the assimilation.

That...

or we can turn back around
and go home with Kuroi-san.

Huh?

When our teacher told us about this mission,

he called the assimilation "erasing."

He was trying to tell us to be aware
of how heavy a sin that was.

Our teacher may be a muscle-brain,

but he often does roundabout things.

Satoru and I already talked it
over before we met you.

What if the Star Plasma Vessel
brat refuses to assimilate?

Then... the assimilation's off!

Are you sure about that?

Huh?

It might mean fighting
Tengen-sama, you know.

You scared?

It's fine. It'll all work out somehow.

We are the strongest.

No matter what decision you make,

we will guarantee your future.

I have...

always been special,
since the day I was born.

Everyone kept telling me
that I was different.

Being special was normal to me,

and I've lived my life trying
to avoid danger

as much as possible
for the sake of this day.

I don't really remember the
day my mother and father died.

I no longer feel sad or lonely about that.

I figured everything would be fine,

even if I was taken away
from everyone and assimilated.

That no matter how hard it was,

it would stop feeling sad and lonely one day.

But...

But...

Honestly...

I want to be with everyone longer!

I want to go to all kinds
of places with everyone!

I want to see all kinds
of things and do more!

Let's go home, Riko-chan.

Yeah!

Riko-chan?

Okay, job's done.

You're free to go now.

Why are you here?

Why?

Oh, that's what you mean.

Because I killed Gojo Satoru.

Is that so?

Die!

Don't be so impatient.

The Tombs of the Star
and the Forbidden Vault

use barriers that conceal.

So they can't place guards at the entrances.

As long as you know where the doors are,

they're full of holes.

Sorcerers are busy during this time of year,

and Jujutsu High is brimming
with Fly Heads right now.

It's pure chaos outside.

And since I have no cursed energy,
I'm like the invisible man.

There was one problem, though.

If I wield a cursed tool,

the cursed energy from it will stop
me from being an invisible man.

Now, there's more to this story.

See, I keep a cursed spirit
capable of storing objects around.

So I usually put my cursed tools
in it when I'm walking around.

You don't have to say it.

Yes, that means the cursed energy from

the cursed spirit should stop me
from being an invisible man.

So I make the cursed spirit smaller,
until it can fit inside my body.

Then I keep it inside my stomach.

After all, the organs of the invisible
man are invisible, too, right?

That's how I'm able to
pass through any barrier

while still carrying
all kinds of cursed tools.

That's also why I didn't use
a cursed tool at first.

A surprise attack on the Six Eyes

would be pointless if I wasn't invisible.

I could've killed the Star Plasma Vessel first,

but the risk of the Six Eyes seeing me was too—

Enough.

You have a Heavenly Pact, right?

I know revealing information about

your ability increases its fundamental
strength, just like for a sorcerer.

That's not what I want to know.

How did you know which doors
led to the Tombs of the Star?

We didn't leave even
the slightest residuals.

Humans leave plenty of
traces aside from residuals.

Like scents, footprints, and so on.

My pact enhances all five of my senses, too.

There should have been
another woman on the way here.

What happened to her?

Hm?

Oh, that maid?

She's probably dead.

I didn't care if she lived or died, though.

If she's lucky, she might still be alive.

Is that so?

You really should... die!

That Rainbow Dragon has
the toughest hide there is!

Curse Manipulation...

Riffraff.

Hey, am...

Am... Am I...

pretty?

A potential apparition?

It deploys a simple domain that

enforces non-violence on both of us
until I answer its question, then?

Ah, well...

Then I'll just come out and say

you're not my type.

So that's how it is.

Idiot.

It's over.

For you!

Curse Manipulation.

It's a technique that lets me
absorb cursed spirits

that have surrendered,
and freely manipulate them.

If there's roughly a two-grade
difference in our levels,

I skip making them submit

and absorb them unconditionally.

His cursed spirit may have a unique ability,
but it's not that strong itself.

I can absorb it. That'll lock down his armory.

Then I can just brute-force him—

I didn't cut you badly enough to kill you.

I would've killed you if
you were a shikigami user,

but since it's Curse Manipulation,

there's no telling what might happen to the
cursed spirits you've absorbed after you die.

I'd rather avoid extra trouble here.

You have the blessing of parentage.

But even with that blessing,

you were all beaten by a monkey like me
who can't even use cursed techniques.

If you want to live a long life,
never forget that.

Oh, speaking of blessings...

That's right. I almost forgot.

I named him Megumi.

STAR RELIGIOUS GROUP HEADQUARTERS
HOUSE OF THE CHILDREN OF THE STAR

Go on, now.

The corpse of the Star Plasma
Vessel, Riko Amanai.

All four limbs intact, too.

Hmm, indeed.

We'll issue your payment as we discussed.

m 0 0 l 136 0 l 136 200 l 0 200
Star
Religious Group
Representative
Shigeru
Sonoda

I'll even throw in a bonus.

Thank you, Founder.

You're so generous.

He's not the founder.

Huh?

Do you mean it?

I know it was a necessary expense,
but you've already helped us out a lot, too.

I thought you'd complain a bit more.

We hired you for the assassination
expecting that it would fail.

Our Star Religious Group
was founded in the Nara Era,

when Tengen-sama began preaching

about the moral foundation
of jujutsu sorcerers,

a minority, as Buddhism
spread throughout Japan.

Jujutsu society and religious corporations
are at complete odds with each other.

That strain is what gave birth

to our modern Star Religious Group,
the Time Vessel Association.

That is also why we have devoted
ourselves to remaining non-sorcerers.

Jujutsu sorcerers are granted
many privileges above the law,

but they're still fundamentally forbidden
to lay a hand on non-sorcerers.

However, the time had finally arrived.

The time of the taboo
recorded in our scriptures!

Our Star Religious Group has evolved to

a monotheistic religion
worshiping one absolute god!

And it was now time for our object of
worship to assimilate with that impurity!

If our believers saw us simply sit back
and watch the assimilation happen,

our Association would crumble.

Yet if we took excessive action,
jujutsu sorcerers would crush us.

So we were truly desperate.

And how did it all turn out?

We thought we were going to lose everything,

and now we have it all!

Of course that would
loosen our purse strings.

Human society might be what crumbles
if Tengen-sama loses control, though.

If we should perish along with our star,
then that is all there is to it.

Were you referring to Okinawa
when you said they helped us?

Yeah.

Why didn't you kill the maid then?

I know I told you,

"Take her someplace far away,
and kill her at some point."

Because I had a good idea of what
you were planning at the time.

I made the call that the relief
from the maid's successful rescue

would wear him down more than
heightened tensions from failure.

You often ignore the lines of communication
and toss out whatever I was planning, right?

It all worked out in the end.

And stop running your mediator ragged.

Yeah, but why Okinawa?

I had a laugh at that myself.

Normally, you'd use a car
to transport a captive, right?

Public transportation carries
too many risks, after all.

But get this. The president
owned his own private jet.

Even so...

Rich people think on a different scale, man.

Well, let's go eat with their money.

Take me to one of the
restaurants you use for clients.

No way.

You never pay for a guy, anyway.

I've already decided I'll only see you

either for work or in Hell.

Huh?

Hey, it's been a while.

For real?

For real, real.

I'm alive and kicking!

Reverse cursed technique!

Bingo!

When you stabbed me through the throat,

I gave up on counterattacking

and poured all my focus into
the reverse cursed technique.

Cursed energy is negative energy.

While it can enhance the body,
it can't regenerate it.

So you multiply that negative energy
against itself to create positive energy.

That's the reverse cursed technique.

Easier said than done!

I hadn't been able to do
that up until now myself!

And I couldn't understand anything
the one person who could do it said!

He's blabbing on and on...

He's high.

But I finally grasped it
on the verge of death!

The true essence of cursed energy!

The reason you're going to lose is
because you didn't chop my head off,

and because you didn't use that cursed
tool when you stabbed my head.

I'm going to lose?

Our fight is just getting started.

Oh? Is it?

Yeah...

Maybe so!

Cursed Technique Reversal:

Red.

Monster.

No bones are broken.

That shock wave was an
application of Limitless,

the cursed technique reversal, Red, huh?

So he poured the positive energy generated
by the reverse cursed technique

into the Limitless
technique ingrained into him.

One, the power to stop:

the neutral application
of the Limitless technique.

Two, the power to attract:

the amplified application of
the Limitless technique, Blue.

And three, the power to repel:

the reversal of his cursed technique, Red.

All things I can handle.

Something's off.

Something's off.

No, this is fine.

I'll kill you.

Sorry, Amanai.

I'm not even angry over you right now.

I bear no grudge against anyone.

It's just that the world feels
so, so wonderful right now.

"Throughout Heaven and Earth,
I alone am the honored one."

The merit of having a technique
that's passed down for generations

is having a user's manual.

The demerit is that

information about the
technique is easily leaked.

You were a member of
the Zen'in clan, weren't you?

That's why you know so much
about the Limitless technique.

However, even in the Gojo clan,

only a scant few know about this.

Take the amplified and the reversal,

then smash together those
two different expressions

of infinity to create and
push out imaginary mass.

Imaginary Technique: Purple.

Something's off.

"I refuse to do any work for free."

Normally I would've said that
and hightailed it out of there.

Yet the freshly awakened wielder of the
Limitless technique was right before my eyes.

He was probably the strongest jujutsu
sorcerer of the modern age.

I wanted to reject him.

I wanted to bring him to his knees.

I wanted to take down the
pinnacle of the jujutsu world

and the Zen'in clan that rejected me.

I twisted myself to try to affirm myself.

That was the moment I lost.

I thought you had abandoned that pride.

I thought you had chosen to live without
respecting yourself or anyone else.

Any last words?

Nah.

Two or three years from now,

my kid will be sold off to the Zen'in clan.

Do what you will with that.

Mommy!

Hug me!

You're late, Suguru.

No, I guess you got here fast.

There are several Star Religious
Group facilities in the city, after all.

Satoru? Is that you?

What happened?

I see you already saw Shoko.

Yeah, she healed me.

I'm fine now.

No, me being safe doesn't
help anything here.

I screwed up.

You're not at fault.

Let's head back.

Suguru, should we kill these guys?

The way I feel right now,
I doubt I'd feel anything about it.

No. There's no point.

It looks like there are only
common believers here.

The masterminds who know about our
world have probably fled already.

And unlike with the bounty,

they won't be able to
talk their way out of this.

The organization had
problems to begin with.

It'll be dissolved soon enough.

No point, huh?

Does there really need
to be any point to it?

It's very important that there is.

Especially for a jujutsu sorcerer.

1 YEAR LATER
AUGUST 2007

Here we go.

Yeah, it's working.

Ugh, what the heck was that?

Automatic selection of targets
for your jujutsu technique?

Yup.

Though, to be precise,
I'm the target for the technique.

I've automated what I used to do manually.

Now it can discern an object's danger level

based on the strength of its cursed energy,
its mass, its velocity, and its shape.

I'd like to get it to discern poisons, too,

but that's still proving difficult.

This will allow me to keep
my Limitless technique active

almost perpetually with minimal resources.

Having it perpetually active
will fry your brain.

But I can also keep running
the reverse cursed technique

with the energy I generate on my own.

So I'm constantly giving it
a fresh brain to work with.

I'd already been working on shortening
my hand seals. That's nailed now, too.

So I can also activate multiple
instances of Blue and Red simultaneously.

The only remaining hurdles are

Domain Expansion and
teleportation over long distances.

I should be able to get
that down if we set up

some courses without any
obstacles in Jujutsu High.

Shoko, could you lend me some lab rats?

Uh...

Satoru had become the "strongest."

Suguru, have you lost weight?

You okay?

He handled all of his missions alone,

and Shoko was never sent out on
dangerous missions in the first place,

which naturally meant I was sent
on missions alone more often, too.

It's just heat fatigue.

I'll be fine.

Did you eat too much somen?

Things were busy that summer.

Episode 29
Premature Death

Likely spurred by the frequent
disasters of the past year,

cursed spirits were
springing up like maggots.

Exorcise, absorb.

Over and over.

Exorcise.

Absorb.

No one else understands
what cursed spirits taste like.

It's like swallowing a dirty rag that's
been used to clean up shit and vomit.

Who am I doing this for?

Exorcise.

Absorb.

Ever since that day,
I've been telling myself,

"What I witnessed isn't uncommon."

"I understood the ugliness of the masses,

"and still chose to be a
jujutsu sorcerer to save others."

"Don't waver."

"Fulfill your duty as a
strong jujutsu sorcerer."

Damn monkeys...

Geto-san!

Haibara...

Good work out there!

Want something to drink?

Huh? No, I'd feel bad!

But I'll take a cola!

I'm going pretty far away
for my mission tomorrow.

That so?

Bring back souvenirs.

Of course!

Do you prefer sweet stuff or salty stuff?

Satoru might eat some, too, so... sweet, I guess?

Got it!

Haibara...

Do you think you can keep going as a
jujutsu sorcerer? It's not too hard for you?

Well...

I'm not really one to think
about things too deeply,

so it feels really good to be able to
give my all to something I can actually do.

I see.

Yeah, it does.

Are you Geto-kun?

What kind of woman is your type?

Who are you?

I like girls who eat a lot!

Oh?

Haibara...

It's okay.

She's not a bad person.

I'm a great judge of character!

You say that while sitting next to me?

Yes!

He was being sarcastic, you know.

Excuse me.

Your underclassman?

He's cute. I like how frank he is.

I think he should be more
suspicious of people as a sorcerer.

So, are you not going to answer?

Please answer my question first.

Who are you?

Special-grade sorcerer Yuki Tsukumo.

That ring any bells?

You're her?

Oh, I like the sound of that! What do they say?

That you're a special-grade
who never accepts any missions,

and you're a good-for-nothing
who's been wandering around abroad.

I hate Jujutsu High.

She's pouting...

She's pouting.

I'm joking.

Though it's true that I don't get along
with Jujutsu High's policies.

What they're doing is just treating symptoms,

and I want to do something
to treat the cause.

Treat the cause?

Rather than hunt down cursed spirits,

I want to create a world
where cursed spirits aren't born.

Care for a little lesson?

What are cursed spirits to begin with?

They're creatures that take
shape when cursed energy

leaking from humans
builds up like sediment.

Excellent.

Now this means there are two ways to create
a world where cursed spirits aren't born.

One: Eliminate cursed energy from mankind.

Two: Make it possible for all of humanity
to control their cursed energy.

I thought number one had a
pretty good chance of working.

There was a model case for it, too.

A model case?

Someone you know well.

Toji Zen'in.

I've seen plenty of cases
where a Heavenly Pact reduced

a person's cursed energy to the
level of your average person,

but you could search the
whole world only to find

he was the only case in which
that cursed energy dropped to zero.

That wasn't the only intriguing
thing about him, either.

Even though Zen'in Toji
had zero cursed energy,

he was able to perceive cursed
spirits with his five senses.

By completely casting aside cursed energy,

his body drew a hard line

and actually gave him
great resistance to curses.

He truly was superhuman.

You shouldn't be ashamed of losing to him.

I wanted to try studying him,
but he turned me down.

It was a real shame to lose him.

And there aren't many people
with Heavenly Pacts,

so I'm currently favoring route number two,

making it possible for all of humanity
to control their cursed energy.

Did you know?

Cursed spirits aren't born from sorcerers.

Of course, that excludes cases
where the jujutsu sorcerer

turns themselves into a curse after death.

Compared to non-sorcerers, jujutsu sorcerers
leak extremely little cursed energy.

There's some variance based
on the sorcerer's capacity

and the amount of cursed
energy their technique expends,

but the main reason is their flow.

Jujutsu sorcerers circulate cursed
energy through their own bodies well.

To put it in rough, general terms,

if all of mankind were jujutsu sorcerers,

curses wouldn't be born.

Then you could solve it simply
by killing all non-sorcerers.

Geto-kun.

That's possible.

Huh? But...

I mean, that's probably
the easiest way to achieve it.

Just keep culling non-sorcerers and

force them to adapt into sorcerers
as a survival strategy.

You would be forcing them to
evolve using fear and danger,

the same way birds gained wings.

But unfortunately, I'm not
crazy enough to do that.

Do you hate non-sorcerers, Geto-kun?

I don't know.

I always thought jujutsu sorcery
existed to protect non-sorcerers.

But lately, the value of non-sorcerers

has been wavering in my mind.

The admirability of the weak...

The ugliness of the weak...

I find myself struggling to discern
the difference and accept those things.

There's a part of me
that despises non-sorcerers,

and a part of me that wants to reject that part.

My vision for what lies at
the end of the marathon game

of being a jujutsu sorcerer is so vague now

that I can't tell which
represents how I truly feel.

Neither one is how you truly feel.

You're not at that stage yet.

This part of you despising non-sorcerers,

and this part of you rejecting that,

are both just possibilities
that you're considering.

It's up to you to choose which part

becomes your true
feelings from here on out.

See you later.

It's a shame I didn't get to
talk to Gojo-kun, too,

but it looks like I missed him today.

I hope the three of us can all
get along as fellow special-grades.

I'll pass that along to Satoru.

Oh, right, one last thing.

You don't need to worry
about the Star Plasma Vessel.

Either there was already another
Star Plasma Vessel at the time,

or a new Star Plasma Vessel
has already been born.

Either way, Tengen is stable.

I'm sure.

Oh, I didn't get his type.

It was supposed to be an easy mission to
exterminate a second-grade cursed spirit!

Damn it!

Their faith in Ubusunagami...

That was a local deity.

That was a first-grade case!

You need to rest for now, Nanami.

Satoru has taken up your mission.

Can't we just leave everything
up to him alone at this point?

This marathon game of being
a jujutsu sorcerer...

If the only thing waiting at the end

is a mountain of our
comrades' corpses, then...

What is this?

What, you ask?

These two are responsible
for the latest incidents, right?

No, they're not.

These two are crazy!

They used their mysterious powers
to attack the villagers!

I've already exterminated
the cause of those incidents.

My granddaughter was nearly
killed by these two, too!

That's because she—

Shut up, you monsters!

Your parents were just as bad!

It... It's okay.

I knew we should have killed you
two when you were babies!

This part of you despising non-sorcerers,

and this part of you rejecting that..

It's up to you to choose which part...

Everyone, shall we step
outside for a moment?

...becomes your true
feelings from here on out.

What?!

Why?!

No!

112 RESIDENTS OF THE VILLAGE WERE KILLED,
AFTER WHICH A FIRE...
BY THE TIME JUJUTSU HIGH INVESTIGATED
ON 23RD SEPTEMBER

INVESTIGATIONS CONFIRMED THAT ALL 112
WERE KILLED BY A CURSED SPIRIT, WHICH THE RESIDUALS REVEALED TO BE THE WORK
OF SUGURU GETO'S CURSED MANIUPLATION

...SENTENCED TO DEATH.

Huh?

Don't make me repeat myself.

Suguru killed everyone in the village and—

I heard you the first time.

That's why I said, "Huh?"

Suguru's old home was already
an empty husk, as well.

Though, from the bloodstains and residuals, he most likely killed his parents, too—

Like hell he did!

Satoru.

I don't understand what's going on, either.

HUH? A HIGH SCHOOLER?

Need a light?

Hey.

It's the criminal.

Need something?

Just testing my luck, I guess.

I'll go ahead and ask...

Any chance the charges are false?

Nope. Unfortunately not.

I'll ask further, then. Why?

I'm going to create a world
of only jujutsu sorcerers.

I don't get it.

I'm not a child.

I'm not holding out hope
that everyone will understand.

Sulking over the idea that
no one will understand you

sounds pretty childish to me, though.

Hey, Gojo?

I found Geto.

Yeah, Shinjuku.

No way. I don't want to get killed.

Explain yourself, Suguru.

You already heard from Shoko, right?

That's all there is to it.

So you're just going to kill
everyone who's not a sorcerer?

Even your parents?!

I can't allow my parents
to be a special exception.

Besides, those people
aren't my family anymore.

That's not what I was asking!

I thought we weren't allowed to
kill when there's no point to it!

There is a point to it. Significance, too.

Even a great cause.

There's not!

You're going to kill all non-sorcerers and
create a world of only jujutsu sorcerers?!

You know that's impossible!

There's no point in chipping away bit by bit

at something you can't possibly do!

How arrogant.

Huh?

You could do it, couldn't you, Satoru?

Yet you would try to convince someone else

that it's impossible to do
something that's possible for you?

Are you the strongest
because you're Satoru Gojo?

Or does being the strongest
make you Satoru Gojo?

What are you trying to say?

If I were able to become you,

this foolish ideal would become a lot
more grounded and real, don't you think?

I've decided how I'll live my life.

Now it's just a matter of doing
the best I can to achieve that.

If you want to kill me, then kill me.

There would be a point to that.

Why didn't you pursue him?

You're actually asking me that?

Nah, it's fine.

My bad.

Sensei, I'm strong, right?

Yeah, brazenly so.

But apparently, it's not good enough
for just me to be strong.

The only ones I can save

are those who are already ready
to be saved by another.

I thought the Star Religious Group
was already dissolved.

It's a different group,
but their roots are the same.

They're claiming they just bought
the existing space as-is.

Don't like it?

No, it doesn't matter, as long as
I can gather curses and money.

Are you really going out dressed like that?

Why not? A little showmanship is important.

Geto-sama...

Watch closely.

They're all there, right?

All the branch directors,
all the representatives, and the president.

All the big donors, as well.

Test, test. Sorry for the wait, everyone.

Now, I'll keep this brief.

From this moment onward,
this organization belongs to me.

I'll be changing the name, too,

so everyone, please be sure to follow me.

MANY OBJECTED

Now, that's not good.

I know!

Sonoda-san, if you wouldn't mind,
please come to the stage.

Yes! You there!

Now, once again.

I hate monkeys.

You obey me now...

That's the true feeling I chose.

...monkeys.

You're Megumi Fushiguro-kun, right?

Who are you?

And what's with that weird face?

You look just like him, is all.

My own issue.

So listen. About your dad...

He's from this big shot jujutsu
sorcerer family called the Zen'in,

but they're such scumbags
they make even me sick,

and that's why your dad left
the family and had you.

Now, you're one of the
ones who can see things,

so you're privileged there, right?

You've noticed the power
within yourself, too, yeah?

The Zen'in clan just loves strong powers.

Most become aware of their cursed
techniques around 4-6 years old.

So it's the perfect timing to sell a kid off.

So, Megumi-kun,

you were the ultimate card that your dad
kept on hand against the Zen'in clan.

Pisses you off, doesn't it?

So, about that dad of yours. I ki—

I don't care.

I have no interest in where
he is or what he's doing.

I haven't even seen him in years,
so I don't remember what he looks like.

Though I get the general idea
from what you just said.

Tsumiki's mother hasn't come home
for a while now, either.

Ah, Megumi's home!

That means they're finished with us,

and they're off enjoying
themselves elsewhere, right?

Are you really a first grader?

Well, whatever.

If you ever want to know about
your father, you can ask me.

Hup.

I think it'll be pretty interesting to hear.

Now, on to the main point.

What do you want to do?

Do you want to go to the Zen'in clan?

What will happen to Tsumiki?

If I go there, will Tsumiki be able to
find happiness? It all depends on that.

No. A hundred percent no.

I can say that with certainty.

Okay!

Leave the rest to me, then.

I might need you to push yourself a bit, though.

So do your best.

Get stronger.

Strong enough to keep up with me.

OCTOBER 19, 2018

Gojo-sensei.

So even Sensei sleeps, huh?

Of course he does.
What kind of nonsense is that?

Gojo-sensei!

Oh, he's awake.

Hey, that's one of those
expensive chairs, isn't it?

Please don't fall asleep
after summoning all of us here.

Hey, no fair! I get it next, got it?!

Hey! Hurry up!

What are you smiling about?
Don't be mean! Move it!

Nothing.
