Jujutsu Kaisen, Volume 2 - Manga Review


The battle against a cursed womb residing in a detention facility takes a tragic turn when Yuji Itadori appears to loose control of Ryomen Sukuna. 

Volume 2 of Jujutsu Kaisen overflows with sorcery battles and expansive world-building. New characters and group dynamics are introduced while a variety of backsides get kicked, good and hard.

It turns out that the higher-ups of Jujutsu High are not too keen about a cursed object vessel attending the school. An opinion that seems to be shared by some of the second and third year students. Something that 'forces' Satoru Gojo to engage in some outside-the-box thinking and teaching.

But there is more going on than that. Powerful curses are also plotting and planning their own nefarious schemes for the Itadori-Sukuna one-two combo, which means all these fireworks are just the prelude for much bigger battles to come.

Any magic system that requires the binge watching of movies as a form of prep is one I can get behind. Add a trash-talking second-year student that just so happens to be a panda and my nabbing and reading the third volume of Jujutsu Kaisen is a sure thing.
