After the popularity of the anime "Jujutsu Kaisen", the number of young Japanese people interested in curses has increased significantly

Recently, with the popularity of the anime "Jujutsu Kaisen", various evil stories have continued to increase. Although the original author has repeatedly stated that the "curse" in "Jujutsu Kaisen" is not the same as the meaning of "curse" in reality, according to Japanese media reports, the number of young people in their 20s in Japan who are concerned about curses has increased significantly.

• "Jujutsu Kaisen" is a fantasy story about the dark exorcism of evil spirits by Yuji Itadori, a high school boy with superhuman physical abilities. It is currently being promoted by Shueisha. For some reason, Yuji Itadori, who wanted to go home before 17:00 every day, came to the paranormal research society where attendance was not mandatory and enjoyed the leisurely activities. One day, a young man named Megumi Fushiguro who came to school to look for the sealed cursed object appeared in front of Yuji Itadori.

•The data comes from Junichiro Kisaragi, a core member of the Japanese Jujutsu Association. He said that in the past, people over 30 often came to talk about curses. Now, with the popularity of the anime "Jujutsu Kaisen", the number of young people in their 20s who are concerned about curses has increased significantly in recent years.

•The author of "Jujutsu Kaisen" has said many times that the "curse" in "Jujutsu Kaisen" refers to an ancient technique for dealing with people's negative emotions, rather than a "curse" in reality that brings bad luck to enemies. However, this does not affect young people's curiosity about curses, and various visions that are difficult to achieve in reality seem to have a place to vent.

•According to Junichiro Kisaragi, there are only more than 20 real-life sorcerers active in the Japanese Jujutsu Association, and the Japanese Jujutsu Association has a history of more than 50 years. Currently, the role of sorcerers is mainly reflected in love demands, disease treatment, employment demands, marriage demands, etc., while things like making straw dolls and beating villains in film and television works also occupy a small share.
