01
The series begins when Yuji Itadori swallows a cursed object — the finger of a legendary curse known as the King of Curses, the most powerful cursed spirit in history. Who is this ancient being?
✓ Correct! Ryomen Sukuna is the King of Curses — an ancient, immensely powerful sorcerer from over a thousand years ago whose cursed essence was split into twenty indestructible fingers. When Yuji swallows one, Sukuna is reborn inside him, setting the entire story in motion.
✗ Cursed failure! The answer is Ryomen Sukuna. Mahito is a cursed spirit who manipulates souls, Jogo is a volcano-type curse, and Rika is the Queen of Curses from Jujutsu Kaisen 0. Only Sukuna holds the title of King of Curses.
02
The strongest jujutsu sorcerer alive is a blindfolded teacher at Tokyo Jujutsu High who possesses the legendary Six Eyes and the Limitless cursed technique. His birth alone shifted the balance of the jujutsu world. Who is he?
✓ Correct! Satoru Gojo is the strongest sorcerer in the modern era, wielding the Six Eyes and Limitless technique that grants him Infinity — an ability that makes him virtually untouchable. His confident declaration “Throughout Heaven and Earth, I alone am the honored one” became iconic.
✗ Cursed failure! The answer is Satoru Gojo. Suguru Geto is his former best friend turned enemy, Yuta Okkotsu is a Special Grade sorcerer from JJK 0, and Kento Nanami is a Grade 1 sorcerer and former salaryman. Only Gojo holds the title of the strongest.
03
The pinnacle of jujutsu sorcery is a technique that creates a separate space with a guaranteed hit against anyone trapped inside. This ultimate ability is declared by name before activation. What is it called?
✓ Correct! Domain Expansion is the supreme technique in jujutsu — a sorcerer manifests their innate domain as a physical space where their attacks cannot miss. Gojo’s Unlimited Void, Sukuna’s Malevolent Shrine, and Mahito’s Self-Embodiment of Perfection are among the most devastating.
✗ Cursed failure! The answer is Domain Expansion. A Binding Vow is a contract that trades conditions for power, Reverse Cursed Technique converts cursed energy into healing, and Black Flash is a critical hit that applies cursed energy within 0.000001 seconds of a physical hit.
04
Early in the series, Yuji Itadori develops an unintentional fighting style where his cursed energy arrives a moment after his physical punch, creating a devastating double impact. What is this technique called?
✓ Correct! Divergent Fist occurs because Yuji’s cursed energy is delayed behind his physical blow, creating two impacts in quick succession. While initially seen as a unique technique, it’s actually a sign of Yuji’s inexperience with cursed energy flow — he eventually learns to unify them properly.
✗ Cursed failure! The answer is Divergent Fist. Black Flash is a separate technique where cursed energy is applied within a fraction of a second of impact, creating a spatial distortion. Divergent Fist is Yuji’s signature early-series move caused by his lagging cursed energy.
05
A second-year student at Tokyo Jujutsu High possesses a hereditary cursed speech technique that imbues his words with cursed energy, forcing anyone who hears them to obey. To avoid accidentally cursing people, he only speaks using rice ball ingredients. Who is he?
✓ Correct! Toge Inumaki is the Inumaki clan descendant who wields Cursed Speech — his words become commands that others are forced to obey. He limits his vocabulary to onigiri ingredients like “salmon,” “tuna mayo,” and “kelp” to prevent accidentally harming people with his power.
✗ Cursed failure! The answer is Toge Inumaki. Maki Zenin has incredible physical prowess but limited cursed energy, Panda is a cursed corpse created by Principal Yaga, and Noritoshi Kamo uses Blood Manipulation. Only Inumaki speaks in rice ball ingredients to control his Cursed Speech.
06
Yuji, Megumi, and Nobara are first-year students at a school that trains jujutsu sorcerers to fight cursed spirits. This institution, where Gojo serves as a teacher, is located in Tokyo. What is it called?
✓ Correct! Tokyo Jujutsu High (Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College) is where sorcerers train to exorcise cursed spirits. It’s one of two jujutsu schools in Japan — the other being Kyoto Jujutsu High, led by Principal Gakuganji. Their annual Exchange Event is a major arc in the series.
✗ Cursed failure! The answer is Tokyo Jujutsu High. The Zenin clan is one of the three great sorcerer families but not a school. Tokyo Jujutsu High is the institution hidden behind a barrier where Gojo, Nanami, and other sorcerers guide the next generation.
07
Sukuna’s Domain Expansion is unique — instead of creating an enclosed barrier, it manifests as an open shrine with a guaranteed hit range of up to 200 meters. This makes it one of the most powerful domains ever seen. What is it called?
✓ Correct! Malevolent Shrine is Sukuna’s Domain Expansion — a Buddhist shrine adorned with skulls that delivers relentless slashing attacks. Unlike other domains, it has no barrier, which is considered a Binding Vow that massively increases its effective range and power.
✗ Cursed failure! The answer is Malevolent Shrine. Unlimited Void is Gojo’s domain that overwhelms targets with infinite information, Chimera Shadow Garden is Megumi’s domain, and Coffin of the Iron Mountain is Jogo’s volcanic domain. Sukuna’s barrierless Malevolent Shrine is considered the pinnacle.
08
Jujutsu Kaisen became one of the best-selling manga series in history and a massive anime hit animated by Studio MAPPA. The manga was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump. Who is the mangaka (creator) behind Jujutsu Kaisen?
✓ Correct! Gege Akutami is the creator of Jujutsu Kaisen, which began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump in 2018. Akutami’s dark, complex storytelling and intricate power system have made JJK one of the defining manga and anime of its generation.
✗ Cursed failure! The answer is Gege Akutami. Tatsuki Fujimoto created Chainsaw Man, Koyoharu Gotouge created Demon Slayer, and Yuji Kaku created Hell’s Paradise. Only Gege Akutami is the mind behind the world of cursed energy, Sukuna, and Jujutsu Kaisen.

Are you Special Grade — or just a cursed spirit waiting to be exorcised?
Despite Fumihiko Takaba showing potential to become a sorcerer that rivals Gojo, Yuta Okkotsu is the one who closely follows as the second best. He easily defeated a top-tier Culling Game player, Dhruv Lakdawalla, breaking the stalemate in the Sendai Colony. As a result, Yuta became the target of the three special-grade sorcerers: Ryu Ishigori, Takako Uro, and Kurourushi.

Jujutsu Kaisen Loses Again as New Shonen Hit Steals its Throne With Ease
In a stunning upset, Jujutsu Kaisen’s reign as manga’s undisputed champion has been dethroned by a gritty shonen manga that everyone needs to read.
The episode will be available in Japanese with subtitles. Viewers who prefer the English dub of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 will have to wait two weeks for it to reach the final episode of the “Culling Game Part 1”. For now, the English dub of episode 10 of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 will drop on Crunchyroll on March 26th.
What to Expect in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, Episode 12
There’s a lot to look forward to in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, episode 12, which will follow up on Yuta’s attack on Dhruv Lakdawalla and how his appearance will alter the balance of power in the Sendai Colony. According to the story revealed on the Jujutsu Kaisen website, Yuta will face an all-out battle with no room to breathe.

Having stepped into the Sendai Colony barrier, Okkotsu brought down Druv Lakdawalla, one of the four key figures in the three-way stalemate. As a result, the dormant Kurourushi began to stir. Okkotsu confronts Kurourushi as it attacks ordinary people. Meanwhile, Ryu Ishigori and Takako Uro, also members of the four-way stalemate, watch the scene closely. What will be the outcome of this fierce battle between past sorcerers and a special-grade cursed spirit?
Each of Sendai’s top players had a weakness against another and waited for the opportunity to strike. The teaser images and special trailer for episode 59 of Jujutsu Kaisen reveal that Yuta will face three Special Grade fighters simultaneously. Fortunately for fans, Yuta will demonstrate his full evolution since Jujutsu Kaisen 0 and the immense power of this version of Rika.
Will Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3: The Culling Game Part 1 Cover the Entire Sendai Colony?

The events of the Sendai Colony in Jujutsu Kaisen‘s manga span from chapter 173 to 181. It seems like a lot of chapters to adapt into a single episode. Considering the average episode only covers around three chapters, it has caused concern among some fans. The Perfect Preparation arc was criticized for being rushed and covered five chapters of the manga.
However, the Sendai Colony is a long battle with little dialogue. Considering that the episode will be longer, around 27 minutes, and may not include an opening and ending sequence, there’s more than enough time to cover Yuta’s epic battle in the colony. This means viewers are eagerly awaiting what could be the best episode of Jujutsu Kaisen to date.
