1. #1Cursed Energy and others

   Keys: Cursed Energy

   What is cursed energy? Cursed energy is a form of spiritual energy generated by negative human emotions, such as fear, hatred, anger, regret, or sadness. These emotions create a special "vibration" that manifests itself in the environment, and can accumulate in people, places, or objects.

   In the world, this energy is invisible to ordinary people, but is highly perceptible to sorcerers and curses.

   How does it work?

   Generating Cursed Energy:

   All human beings, whether conscious or not, naturally produce cursed energy due to their negative emotions. However, most of this energy is dispersed without control.

   Use by Jujutsu Sorcerers:

   Jujutsu Sorcerers are trained to manipulate and control cursed energy. They accumulate this energy and convert it into attacks, defenses and abilities, channeling it into specific techniques.

   Natural Cycle:

   Ordinary people: Produce cursed energy, but cannot control it.

   Curses: Are physical manifestations of cursed energy generated by negative human emotions in large quantities.

   Concept of Curses: Places or people that accumulate excessive cursed energy often give rise to curses (evil spirits or monsters). They are strongest in places associated with traumatic events, such as hospitals or abandoned schools. Applications and Techniques Physical Attacks with Cursed Energy: Sorcerers can coat their physical attacks with cursed energy, increasing their strength. For example, a punch coated with cursed energy can strike curses that would normally be immune to ordinary physical attacks. Cursed Techniques: Cursed energy can be molded into specific techniques, which vary from person to person. Examples include: Slicing Energy: Such as Satoru Gojo's invisible blades. Elemental Manipulation: Such as the fire or electricity abilities seen in certain sorcerers. Domain Expansion: An advanced technique in which the sorcerer creates an enclosed area saturated with cursed energy, ensuring that their techniques hit the target with 100% accuracy. Cursed Weapons: Weapons imbued with cursed energy are used to combat curses. These weapons are especially useful for people who have limited control over their own abilities. Healing Wounds: Some sorcerers, such as Shoko Ieiri, can reverse cursed energy into positive energy, allowing them to heal wounds. Types of Cursed Energy Pure Cursed Energy: Produced by sorcerers or curses and used directly for attacks or techniques. Cursed Energy Reversal: The combination of two negative cursed energy sources generates positive energy. This energy can be used to heal wounds or perform advanced techniques, such as Satoru Gojo's "Red". Innate Techniques: Certain sorcerers have unique abilities that depend on their lineage or personal characteristics, such as Choso's blood manipulation or Gojo's time reversal power. Emotions and Intensity The stronger the negative emotions, the greater the cursed energy generated. High-level curses, such as Sukuna, are the result of extremely intense emotions and hatred accumulated over generations. Difference between Sorcerers and Curses Sorcerers: They control and use cursed energy to combat curses. Curses: They are pure manifestations of cursed energy, created from negative human emotions. They do not control their energy strategically, but they have natural strength. Important points: Cause and Effect: Curses are the direct consequence of human emotions, making cursed energy a manifestation of our nature. Control and Technique: Sorcerers differ from curses in that they can manipulate this energy consciously and strategically. Limitation: Manipulating cursed energy requires rigorous training and mental discipline. A mistake can mean that the energy turns against the user. Cursed Energy Reversal What is it? Cursed energy can be converted into positive energy when two negative energies combine in a controlled manner. This creates a purely restorative energy, used for healing. Main Uses: Heals injuries (as shown by Shoko Ieiri). Special techniques, such as Gojo's "Red", which combines positive energy with cursed energy to create an extremely destructive repulsive force. Limitations: Difficult to master, as it requires advanced control. 3. Pure Positive Energy What is it? A purely positive energy that is naturally detrimental to curses, as they are made of negative cursed energy. Used by: Healing techniques that require conversion of cursed energy. Certain entities such as the purest Shikigami (such as the Celestial Shikigami). 4. Soul Energy What is it? While not explicitly called "spiritual energy," the series suggests that curses and human souls have an underlying essence that can be manipulated. The concept of "soul" is explored in depth through characters such as Mahito. Used for: Soul transformation (Mahito's main ability, which manipulates and distorts souls to alter physical bodies). Attacks that directly affect the soul rather than the physical body. 5. Celestial Energy What is it? A concept that is still little explored, but referred to in techniques or beings that do not rely on cursed energy directly, such as the artifacts of the Ten Sacred Precious. Used by: Divine or neutral techniques, such as some Domain Expansions. Entities that transcend the cursed nature, such as certain forms of Sukuna. 6. Natural or Innate Energy What is it? Some techniques, objects, or beings utilize an innate energy, which is passive or automatic. This is evident in: Inherited Techniques, which are often activated instinctively, such as the Ten Types of Shadow Technique. Curses that evolve through the simple accumulation of natural (uncontrolled) energy. Other Potential Forms Domain Energy: By creating a Domain Expansion, the space becomes saturated with an intense mixture of cursed energy and the concept of absolute control.

2. #2Ten Shadows

   Keys: Nue, Gama, Divine Dogs, Max Elephant, Great Serpent, Toad, Rabbit escape, Ox, Mahoraga

   The Ten Shadows is a technique inherited by the Zen'in clan, one of the most powerful and influential families. This ability allows the user to manipulate and summon Shikigami (spirits or spiritual entities) from their shadows. Each Shikigami has unique characteristics that can be used for combat, support, or advanced strategies.

   Main characteristics of the Ten Shadows:

   1. Control over Shadows: The user can manipulate their shadows to create and summon Shikigami. The shadows function as an intermediate dimension from which these creatures emerge, connecting the physical world to the spiritual.

   2. Shikigami: There are ten specific Shikigami that can be summoned with this technique, each representing an animal or creature with unique abilities. These Shikigami are not just summons; they are extensions of the user's own power.

   3. Fusion Skill: When a Shikigami is destroyed, its power does not disappear, but is instead absorbed by the remaining Shikigami, making them stronger. This creates a balance of power, ensuring that the technique remains effective even after losses.

   4. Domination Rituals: To fully utilize a Shikigami, the user must defeat it in a domination ritual. This means that simply summoning them is not enough; it is necessary to defeat and subdue them before using their power freely.

   5. Versatility and Complexity: The technique is extremely versatile and allows for countless strategies. The control of shadows can also be used for movement, camouflage, and object manipulation.

   ---

   The Ten Known Shikigami:

   1. Nue: A giant eagle-like bird with electrified wings. It can fly and unleash lightning attacks.

   2. Gama:

   A giant toad that can be used for physical attacks or to immobilize enemies with its strength and weight.

   3. Divine Dogs:

   Two spiritual wolves, one white and one black, that act as loyal hunters and attack with agility and ferocity. When one is destroyed, the other absorbs its power.

   4. Max Elephant:

   A massive elephant capable of releasing large amounts of water, creating floods or pushing enemies with brute force.

   5. Great Serpent:

   A huge snake that is agile and excellent for quick and deadly attacks.

   6. Toad:

   A variation of the toad that can trap enemies with its tongue and act as support for the user.

   7. Rabbit Escape:

   Summons a large number of rabbits, used to confuse or distract enemies, allowing the user to escape or attack stealthily.

   8. Ox:

   A massive bull-like creature that combines brute strength and speed for destructive attacks.

   9. Mahoraga:

   The most powerful Shikigami of the technique, but extremely dangerous. It is only summoned in desperate situations, as it is difficult to control. Mahoraga has a unique ability to adapt to any technique or attack it faces.

   10. Ultimate Ten Shadows:

   It has not yet been revealed whether there is a specific tenth Shikigami or if the ultimate power of the technique lies in something more abstract.

   ---

   Important points:

   • Usage limitations: Although powerful, the technique requires exceptional control over Jujutsu and the ability to balance the use of shadows and Shikigami.

   • Zen'in inheritance: The technique is one of the two great powers that define the Zen'in clan, being rival to the Projection Technique.

   Summoning Shikigami: To summon any of the ten Shikigami, the user molds their cursed energy to create a connection between their shadow and the dimension where the Shikigami exist. This allows them to materialize these creatures in the physical world. Maintaining Shikigami: Each summoned Shikigami consumes a continuous amount of cursed energy while it is active. The stronger the Shikigami, the greater the energy consumption. Enhancing and Coating: Shikigami can be strengthened by directly coating them with more cursed energy. This increases their endurance, attack power, and overall capabilities. Manipulating Shadows: Cursed energy is used to manipulate the user's own shadow, which is the primary conduit for summoning. This ability allows for additional flexibility, such as fusing Shikigami or using their shadows for attacks and defenses.

3. #3Curses

   Keys: Curse

   Curses are physical manifestations of cursed energy generated by negative human emotions. They vary in appearance, power, and intelligence, depending on the intensity of the emotions that created them and the circumstances of their formation. Curses can be classified into different types based on their threat level, origin, and purpose.

   1. Ranking Curses are organized into a system of ranks, which determines their power and threat level:

   Rank 4

   Description: Weaker curses. They usually have little cursed energy and limited intelligence. Example of power: Can be defeated by an ordinary human armed with a basic weapon. Appearance: Simple and small forms, often grotesque and amorphous. Rank 3

   Description: Still relatively weak, but more resistant than Grade 4 curses. Example of power: A beginner sorcerer can face them without much trouble. Appearance: More defined forms, but still rudimentary. Grade 2

   Description: Intermediate curses. They have a considerable level of cursed energy and can pose a danger to less experienced sorcerers. Example of power: Requires cursed weapons or basic jujutsu techniques to defeat them. Appearance: Often inspired by common fears, such as ferocious animals or grotesque figures. Grade 1

   Description: Powerful curses that pose a great threat. Require experienced sorcerers and advanced skills to be defeated. Example of power: Able to use basic cursed techniques. Appearance: More detailed and complex forms, with traces of intelligence. Special Grade

   Description: The most powerful and dangerous curses. They have absurd levels of cursed energy, high intelligence and, often, advanced cursed techniques. Example of power: Able to face multiple high-level sorcerers or even cause large-scale destruction. Appearance: Extreme variety, from humanoid forms to immense monstrosities. 2. Specific Curses (Based on Origin) Human Curses

   Origin: Created from negative emotions accumulated in places associated with human tragedies, fears or deaths. Example: Curses from schools, abandoned hospitals or cemeteries. Natural Curses

   Origin: Created by collective fears and beliefs linked to forces of nature, such as natural disasters or wild animals. Example: Curses linked to forests, earthquakes or storms. Specific Curses (Imbued)

   Origin: Created intentionally by sorcerers or rituals. Example: Sukuna (originally human, transformed into a curse after death). Object Curses

   Origin: Cursed energy accumulated in objects, creating spiritual "fetishes". Example: Sukuna's fingers, which contain his essence and cursed energy. 3. Special and Notable Curses High Intelligence Curses

   Description: Curses that have developed consciousness and intelligence comparable to or greater than that of humans. Example: Mahito: Manipulates souls and is highly strategic. Game: Has control over elements such as fire and seeks to coexist with humans. Demi-Human Curses

   Description: Curses that have a hybrid origin, being partially human. Example: Choso and his brothers, who were created by experiments in merging humans and cursed energy. Domain-Specific Curses

   Description: Some curses specialize in creating highly powerful domain expansions, ensuring that their attacks are unavoidable within their territories. Example: Sukuna, with his "Malevolent Shrine" domain. Curses Based on Common Phobias

   Description: Created by specific and widely shared fears, such as the dark, heights, insects, or diseases. Example: Curses based on plagues or illnesses. 4. Curses as Allies or Tools Cursed Shikigami

   Description: Creatures created or controlled by sorcerers for combat. Often made of cursed energy, but precisely controlled. Example: The Shikigami of Megumi's Ten Shadows Technique. Cursed Weapons

   Description: Objects imbued with cursed energy that can be used by humans or sorcerers to combat curses. Example: Yuta Okkotsu's black blade. 5. Curses as Manifestations of Concepts Some curses are created based on abstract fears or universal concepts:

   Time Curses: Represent the human fear of aging or losing time. Death Curses: Connected to the fear of the unknown and inevitable end. Space Curses: Connected to the fear of being trapped or lost

4. #4Domain Expansion

   Keys: Domain Expasion

   Domain Expansion creates a unique space that reflects the user’s will, emotions, or inherent traits. This "territory" is not bound by normal physical laws, allowing the user to control the environment and interact with opponents in a way that would otherwise be impossible. The most notable characteristic of a Domain Expansion is its guaranteed hit. When a Domain Expansion is activated, the user’s techniques or attacks inside their domain are virtually unavoidable, ensuring that the user can land a decisive blow. 2. Activation Skill and Mastery: To activate a Domain Expansion, the user must have a high level of control over their cursed energy and a deep understanding of their own cursed technique. It requires immense concentration, focus, and energy control. Domain Expansion vs. Simple Domain: A “Simple Domain” is a more basic and defensive version of Domain Expansion, meant to counter another Domain. It functions as a protective barrier, repelling the opponent’s techniques. It’s often used as a last-ditch effort when a sorcerer can’t match the other user’s Domain Expansion. 3. Components of a Domain The Territory: Every Domain reflects the sorcerer’s inner world. This means that the environment within a Domain varies widely depending on the user. For instance: Gojo's "Infinite Void" creates a space that overwhelms the opponent with infinite information, leaving them mentally paralyzed. Jogo’s "Coffin of the Iron Mountain" creates an environment filled with volcanic heat and lava, a reflection of his fiery, destructive nature. The Technique: Inside the Domain, the user’s special technique is enhanced to the point of being unavoidable. For example, if the user’s power is the ability to create explosions, within their Domain, they can trigger explosions instantly, without the need for aiming. In Gojo’s Infinite Void, the technique forces the opponent into an overload of information, leading to paralysis. 4. Mechanics of a Domain Expansion Guaranteed Hit: The hallmark of any Domain Expansion is that attacks made inside the domain are guaranteed to land. This is achieved because the domain establishes an environment where the opponent cannot escape or avoid the attack. It's a tactical advantage that makes the Domain extremely dangerous. Domain Clashes: When two Domain Expansions clash, the result depends on the power and intricacy of the domains and the user’s control over cursed energy. If one Domain is superior, the weaker one can be “broken” or nullified. Some users may even use the concept of “Simple Domains” to try to protect themselves or escape. Cost and Sustainability: A Domain Expansion is incredibly draining. Not only does it consume a vast amount of cursed energy to maintain, but it also requires precision. A poorly executed Domain will falter, and maintaining it for too long can severely weaken the user. 5. Advanced Concepts: "The True Nature" of a Domain Unique Domains: Some sorcerers have unique, highly specialized Domains, built on their own individual curses or emotions. These Domains don’t always need to be practical in the traditional sense—they reflect the essence of the user. Domain Expansion Mastery: The more refined a sorcerer’s Domain, the more subtle and unpredictable it can be. Advanced users can even manipulate aspects of their Domain after it’s been established, adjusting the nature of the space or the attacks within it. Domain Expansion and Emotions: Since a Domain often reflects the sorcerer’s inner emotions or personal struggles, those with strong emotional control tend to develop more stable and versatile Domains. Emotional instability or a lack of self-control can lead to flawed Domains that have limitations or vulnerabilities. 6. Summary Domain Expansion is a versatile and highly potent technique, one that represents the ultimate form of a sorcerer’s power. It creates a personal space where the user’s techniques become inescapable, giving them a massive advantage in battle. However, it comes with the challenge of requiring intense concentration, control, and energy. Successful use of Domain Expansion also reflects the emotional depth and mastery over cursed energy, making it both a powerful and deeply personal technique.

5. #5Jujutsu School (and a little about sukuna)

   Origin of Jujutsu:

   The first sorcerers emerged as individuals capable of perceiving and manipulating cursed energy. Cursed techniques began to be developed and inherited within family lines (such as the Gojo, Zen'in, and Kamo clans). Over time, Jujutsu became an organized practice, evolving into tradition and knowledge to combat curses and protect humanity. Important Historical Events The Rise of Sukuna

   Origin: Sukuna was a human in the Heian period, considered the most powerful and evil Jujutsu sorcerer of his time. Transformation into a Curse: After his death, Sukuna became a curse due to the absurd amount of cursed energy in his body. His remains were sealed into 20 cursed fingers, each containing a part of his essence. Legacy: Sukuna is revered as the "King of Curses," and his influence has persisted through the ages. Many sorcerers and curses seek Sukuna's fingers to gain power. The Heian Period (Golden Age of Curses):

   This was a time marked by the height of curses and Jujutsu. Great battles between sorcerers and curses shaped modern Jujutsu society. Legendary sorcerers, such as those who gave birth to the Gojo clan's techniques, emerged during this period. Creation of Jujutsu Schools:

   As curses increased and society advanced, sorcerers established schools to train new students and organize the fight against curses. The Tokyo Jujutsu School and the Kyoto Jujutsu School were founded to centralize training and maintain order among sorcerers. Jujutsu Traditions and Rules Jujutsu Sorcerers' Code

   Protecting Human Society: The primary goal of sorcerers is to protect humanity from curses, even if it requires personal sacrifice. Obedience to Superior Orders: Sorcerers are under the authority of the Jujutsu Society, which makes strategic decisions about missions and punishments. Respect for Hierarchy: Strength and experience determine the hierarchy among sorcerers, and those of lower ranks must respect their superiors. Preserving Secrecy: Sorcerers must avoid exposing the existence of curses and cursed energy to the general public to avoid panic. Punishments and Control:

   Sorcerers who disobey orders or act against the Jujutsu Society may be punished, including execution.

6. #6Sukuna And The 20 fingers

   Keys: Sukuna, Cursed Finger

   Sukuna's 20 Fingers represent one of the most significant and dangerous aspects of his power. Sukuna, the King of Curses, was an ancient and incredibly powerful curse whose full strength is unleashed when he is in possession of all 20 of his fingers. Each finger contains a fragment of his immense cursed energy and abilities, and they play a crucial role in his resurrection

   The Origin of Sukuna’s 20 Fingers**

   • Sukuna was originally a human sorcerer over 1,000 years ago. He was so powerful that even during his lifetime, he was considered a terrifying figure, often feared even by other powerful sorcerers. After his death, Sukuna’s cursed energy was so potent that it didn't dissipate, and his body was broken into 20 separate cursed objects—his fingers—each imbued with a fragment of his original power.
   • These fingers were scattered across the world, and over time, they became highly coveted items for both sorcerers and curses alike, as consuming them would increase a curse's power.

   Power of Each Finger**

   • Each finger contains a portion of Sukuna's immense cursed energy, granting the individual who consumes or possesses them a significant boost in strength. However, unlike most cursed objects or relics, Sukuna’s fingers are more than just tools—they are the literal pieces of his soul and consciousness.

   • Scaling Power:

     • While even a single finger holds immense cursed energy, the true danger of Sukuna lies in the cumulative power of all 20 fingers. Each finger strengthens Sukuna’s body and influence, bringing him closer to his original form. As he regains more of his fingers, his power escalates exponentially.
     • With each finger he regains, Sukuna’s abilities increase, making him more formidable. At full strength (with all 20 fingers), he would be one of the most dangerous beings in the world, surpassing even most special grade curses and sorcerers.

   The Danger of Collecting All 20 Fingers**

   • Sukuna’s Resurgence:

     • The ultimate goal of the Cursed Spirits and others who seek Sukuna’s fingers is to restore him to full power. While he remains sealed within his fingers, his full resurrection would unleash a curse of unimaginable strength, threatening the entire world of Jujutsu sorcery.

   • The Potential for Destruction:

     • Sukuna, when fully resurrected, would regain his full arsenal of abilities, which include immense cursed energy manipulation, regeneration, immortal traits, and cursed techniques that could potentially destroy entire cities. The only way to stop Sukuna would be to destroy all 20 fingers or, in extreme cases, possibly kill the receptacle before Sukuna fully emerges.

   Sukuna’s Abilities and the Finger Connection**

   • Power and Techniques:

     • Even without all 20 fingers, Sukuna is an incredibly powerful curse. His strength includes formidable abilities like Cleave, a slicing technique that can cut through anything, and Dismantle, a devastating attack that can tear through defenses. These techniques are further enhanced as he consumes more of his fingers.

   • **Domain Expansion – **

     • Sukuna also possesses his Domain Expansion, which is a devastating power in itself. While his full Domain is not fully explained in the series yet, it’s expected to be incredibly powerful and possibly even unique compared to other Domain Expansions due to his nature as the King of Curses.

   ---

   Sukuna’s Ultimate Plan**

   • Destruction and Reign:
     • Sukuna’s ultimate goals, as a curse, are not entirely clear, but he clearly revels in destruction and chaos. His true intentions, once fully resurrected, may go beyond personal power. He might seek to reshape the world or simply to return to his original state of dominance.

   Summary Sukuna’s 20 fingers are not just physical objects but are key to the curse’s resurrection and return to power. Each finger holds a piece of Sukuna’s vast and terrifying energy

7. #7Cursed Energyselective

   Keys: Cursed Energy, Juryoku

   Cursed Energy (Juryoku) is a power source aligned with negative emotions used by sorcerers and cursed spirits to fuel their jujutsu. Negative emotions such as grief and anger are the foundation of cursed energy. These emotions exist to some degree within most humans and as a result, the vast majority of human beings possess cursed energy. If this amount is higher than a certain degree, it grants the person the ability to see cursed spirits. These individuals are known as jujutsu sorcerers and they are very rare among the human race. Cursed energy leaks from the human body, accumulates, and ferments over time until a cursed spirit manifests. This is only the case with non-sorcerers, as sorcerers are trained to control and channel their cursed energy into jujutsu.

8. #8Cursed Energy Usageselective

   Keys: Cursed Energy · Secondary: Use, Usage

   Cursed energy is the primary power source for any sorcerer or cursed spirit. Cursed tools, cursed objects, and cursed corpses all contain cursed energy as well. It is ordinarily used to fuel cursed techniques, reinforce the body, or activate talismans, but cursed energy has various uses. The properties of cursed energy vary from person to person and its connection to the human brain is shrouded in mystery. In the anime, most cursed energy is blue in color but there are several exceptions.

9. #9Cursed Energy Sightselective

   Keys: Cursed Energy, Curse · Secondary: Detection, Invisible

   Humans with an above-average level of cursed energy can see curses and jujutsu. The minimum requirement for a human to be considered a sorcerer is the ability to see curses. In extreme cases, humans will gain the ability to see curses when their life is in danger.

10. #10Cursed Energy Residualsselective

    Keys: Cursed Energy · Secondary: Residual, Residuals, Trace, Traces, Track, Tracking, Zan'e, Footprint, Foot print, Footprints, Linger, Lingering

    Using jujutsu leaves Residuals (Zan'e) of cursed energy behind. Residuals leave spectral footprints that can be used to track the user. Someone can even be identified by the residuals from their jujutsu. Expert sorcerers can be trained to cover up their residuals. The ability to detect cursed energy and understand its flow can be honed, but many cursed spirits are capable of hiding their presence the same way a sorcerer does.

11. #11Cursed Energy Manipulationselective

    Keys: Cursed Energy · Secondary: Manipulation, Manipulate

    A jujutsu user's ability to control their cursed energy and use it to carry out certain functions is the base foundation for all jujutsu. There is a world of difference between being able to sense jujutsu and being able to use it. Yuji Itadori was able to sense the pressure of cursed energy surrounding his school, but was not able to utilize it until enrolling at a jujutsu educational facility. He was first able to utilize cursed energy in combat while he was overwhelmed with anger and fear, but could not do so in a calmer situation a few days afterward.

12. #12Cursed Energy Controlselective

    Keys: Cursed Energy · Secondary: Efficiency, Control

    Proper control over one's emotions is key to channeling cursed energy and every jujutsu sorcerer is trained to do so. This makes it so sorcerers don't waste their power supply even while they're overcome with emotion. This results in sorcerers leaking much less cursed energy than the average human. So much so, that if every human were a sorcerer, curses would cease to spawn. There are other differences in how sorcerers and non-sorcerers use cursed energy due to their profession, but the real reason lies in how it flows. While cursed energy leaks outward from non-sorcerers, it flows heavily within sorcerers which keeps it contained.

13. #13Cursed Energy Applicationselective

    Keys: Cursed Energy · Secondary: Imbuement, Application, Apply

    Applying cursed energy to physical attacks can be as effective as a cursed technique when it comes to gifted combatants who specialize in hand-to-hand combat. Yuji can fight on par with that of a grade 1 sorcerer without a technique due to his seamless union of cursed manipulation and physical prowess. Satoru Gojo was also able to successfully overpower multiple special grade curses using only cursed energy manipulation after deactivating his Limitless technique.

14. #14Cursed Energy Outputselective

    Keys: Cursed Energy · Secondary: Output

    The amount of cursed energy released by an individual is referred to as their potential Cursed Energy Output. This applies to both how it's used offensively and defensively. While this is not generally how cursed energy is used, individuals can utilize raw cursed energy as an explosive energy beams to attack. Finger Bearers can launch their energy as a projectile and erect cursed energy barriers. Ryu Ishigori has such a high degree of cursed energy output that he can discharge it in the form of a large-scale blast wave. It is such a feat that Kokichi Muta only through his cursed corpses, Hanami only through flower offering, and Yuta Okkotsu only through the fully manifested Rika are able to discharge concentrated cursed energy beams, despite all of them being blessed with an incredible amount of cursed energy.

15. #15Cursed Energy Defenseselective

    Keys: Cursed Energy, Spiritual · Secondary: Defense, Enhance, Reinforce, Reinforcement, Imbue, Imbuement, Offense, Defense

    Defensively, users can coat their skin in cursed energy to harden their body and increase their ability to block incoming curse related attacks. The same application can be used offensively, imbuing physical attacks with cursed energy to increase their destructive power to superhuman levels. Aoi Todo crushed a curse, several trees, and broke through Yuji's defense with a single cursed energy infused punch. Conventional weapons can also be infused with cursed energy to increase their strength. Imbuing too much cursed energy at one time to a normal weapon can compromise its integrity and destroy it, so a sorcerer must only infuse small amounts of energy at a time. Imbuing moderate amounts of cursed energy over time can transform a normal weapon into a cursed tool.

16. #16Special Cursed Energy Traitsselective

    Keys: Special Cursed Energy Traits, Cursed Energy Trait

    There are rare cases where cursed energy carries a special property unique to its user. When applied to their fighting techniques, it can grant them a special texture or effect that gives them an advantage in battle. These special traits cannot be defended by simple reinforcement techniques. Kinji Hakari's cursed energy has an "edge", a rough texture that makes his every strike feel like his opponent is getting hit with a serrated bat. Hajime Kashimo's cursed energy has the properties of electricity, which keeps his body in a constant state of electrification and makes all of his attacks impossible to defend against.

    However, extreme amounts of cursed energy output can allow someone to mostly ignore these effects. Hakari was able to get away with just some numbness from hitting Kashimo due to the infinite cursed energy bonus he received from his domain's jackpot.

17. #17Black Flashselective

    Keys: Black Flash, Kokusen

    Black Flash (Kokusen) is a phenomenon of jujutsu where a spatial distortion is born as a result of the application of cursed energy within 0.000001 seconds of a physical hit. The distortion causes cursed energy to flash black, multiplying the destructive power of a normal hit. There is no sorcerer who can use it at will, but those who have unleashed Black Flash gain an advanced understanding of cursed energy far beyond those who have not.

18. #18Reverse Cursed Energyselective

    Keys: Reverse Cursed Energy, RCT, Reversed Cursed Technique

    Reverse Cursed Technique is a special type of cursed technique that takes cursed energy and reverses it into positive energy. It is a very complex technique and is mainly used to heal human bodies.

    Reverse cursed technique converts cursed energy into positive energy to regenerate flesh and heal injuries. Cursed energy comes from negative emotions, unfit for healing living things. Reverse cursed technique uses the principle of multiplying a negative by another negative to produce a positive. While cursed energy flows from the gut, the brain directs reverse cursed technique.

    Positive energy can reproduce blood, bone, flesh, and organs, allowing proficient sorcerers to recover entire limbs and withstand powerful attacks. The speed and effectiveness of this process are dependent on the user's cursed energy output. Reverse cursed technique can even heal the soul, but this requires the unique ability to perceive the shape of the soul.

    Reverse cursed technique is extremely complex and difficult for most jujutsu sorcerers to perform. One of the primary hurdles when using reverse cursed technique is compensating for blood loss from injuries. Reverse cursed technique can convert cursed energy into blood in a technical process that consumes a massive amount of cursed energy. Individuals who can already convert cursed energy into blood like the Death Painting Wombs can learn to use reverse cursed technique easier than others.

    Most reverse cursed technique users can only heal themselves. Healing oneself is more efficient and less difficult to perform than healing others. One reason is the fundamental difference in application. Another is because the receiver's body can refuse the treatment due to an incompatibility with their cursed energy. The receiver could reject the healer's cursed energy or they could fail to respond to conversion. Due to this, the effectiveness of healing others with reverse cursed technique is case-by-case.

    Cursed spirits are manifestations of cursed energy and need only to manipulate it to heal instead of resorting to reverse cursed technique. They are vulnerable to positive energy because it can compromise the integrity of their bodies and destroy them.

    An innate technique exhausted by domain expansion cannot ordinarily be restored with reverse cursed technique. Satoru Gojo and Sukuna circumvented this limitation by damaging the engraving of their technique in their brain and then healing it with reverse cursed technique. However, they could not recover their exhausted technique and heal at the same time. This is a highly risky maneuver that can leave lasting damage to the user's brain and even prevent them from using domain expansion altogether.

    The primary tactic for fighting a reverse cursed technique user is to target their head. Positive energy is directed from there and a reverse cursed technique user can be killed if their head is destroyed before they get a chance to recover. Another countermeasure is using poison. Unlike flesh regeneration, targeting a toxin and removing it requires a higher level of reverse cursed technique. Not even Uraume's reverse cursed technique was able to deal with Choso's blood poisoning.

19. #19Cursed Restrictionsselective

    Keys: Cursed Restrictions, Binding Vow, Cursed Restriction, Binding Vows, Curse Contract, Cursed Contract

    To gain something, one must offer something in return. This is a concept that affects the world beyond jujutsu. Alongside emotion, risk is a key factor that can affect cursed energy. The greater the risk to the user, the more their cursed energy will react. It is believed that the fastest way to raise one's level as a sorcerer is a Binding Vow with their life as the trade-off. Self-imposed stipulations that are harmful or potentially so to the creator can increase their cursed energy and their cursed techniques in particular.

20. #20Heavenly Restrictionselective

    Keys: Heavenly Restriction

    Heavenly Restrictions are described as bindings placed on a sorcerer's body when they are born. These bindings usually refer to limitations on the human body that the person receives improved capabilities in a different capacity in exchange. For example, a Heavenly Restriction can cause a sorcerer born with low cursed energy to be physically gifted. Vise versa can also occur, sorcerers with high cursed energy can be born with exceptionally weak bodies.

    Keys: Cursed Technique

    Cursed Techniques (Jutsushiki) are abilities fueled by cursed energy. Different types include innate techniques, barrier techniques, shikigami, new shadow style, and more.

22. #22Cursed Technique Triggerselective

    Keys: Cursed Technique · Secondary: Activation, Trigger

    A cursed technique is activated through the act of pouring cursed energy into it, utilizing one of two processes; Lapse or Reversal. If cursed energy is comparable to electricity, cursed techniques are the appliances that use that power to function. Cursed energy is processed through a procedure akin to a mathematic formula within the user to activate a cursed technique.

23. #23Lapseselective

    Keys: Lapse, Forward Rotation Cursed Technique

    Lapse (Junten / Forward Rotation) refers to the basic, default, or neutral state of activation for a cursed technique. To activate a cursed technique through lapse, the caster circulates their cursed energy in a forward direction to channel it into their ability.[1]

24. #24Cursed Technique Reversalselective

    Keys: Cursed Technique Reversal, Reversal, Reverse Rotation Cursed Technique

    Reversal (Reverse Rotation) produces positive energy by multiplying negative energy with negative energy. Negative energy isn't suitable for recovering but positive energy can heal physical injuries. However, it requires highly sophisticated manipulation of cursed energy to achieve, so the ability to do so is rare.

25. #25Subtractionselective

    Keys: Subtraction, Cursed Technique Subtraction

    Cursed techniques often require hand signs, empowered words, or other gestures to activate. A sorcerer's skill is determined by the degree to which they can minimize and omit these components to make their abilities more efficient. Conversely, the purposeful inclusion of incantations or rituals can elevate a cursed technique's effectiveness.

26. #26Innate Techniqueselective

    Keys: Innate Technique

    Innate Techniques are unique abilities congenitally engraved into the user's body, specifically in the right prefrontal cortex of the brain. Most jujutsu sorcerers are born with an innate technique that manifests around the age of five or six, which continually carves its formula into the user over time.

    Innate techniques are proprietary and comprise eighty percent of a sorcerer's intrinsic skillset, making them nearly impossible to mimic, not unlike a copyrighted computer program. When an individual refers to their own personal cursed technique, they're generally talking about their innate technique.

    In almost all cases, an individual possesses only a single innate technique. In especially rare cases, someone may possess more than one. Kenjaku, who can switch bodies, has access to the technique carved into the body of his vessel. However, even can only possibly possess a maximum of three to four innate techniques at one time. Yuta Okkotsu can only utilize numerous techniques because Rika serves as his external aid. Otherwise, too many innate techniques will overload the user's brain.

27. #27Inherited Techniqueselective

    Keys: Inherited Technique, Hereditary Technique, Clan Technique, Bloodline Technique

    Inherited Techniques are innate techniques passed down to sorcerers in the same bloodline. While sorcerers who don't come from prominent clans can inherit innate techniques, e.g. Straw Doll Technique, those obtained hereditarily from the ancestors of the Big Three Families especially carry the title of inherited technique, e.g. Limitless. The Big Three Families have maintained their authority and prestige by passing down powerful techniques to their descendants. Therefore, a sorcerer with an inherited technique is guaranteed an important position in the family.

    Inherited Technique users have the advantage of being equipped with a manual on how to use them. However, passing down a technique through generations also presents the issue of other groups learning how the ability works, along with its shortcomings.

28. #28Non-Inherited Techniqueselective

    Keys: Non-Inherited Technique

    While the formula for hereditary innate techniques is only accessible to members of their respective clan who inherited the engraving, innate techniques often manifest naturally within sorcerers regardless of their heritage. Suguru Geto, Kento Nanami, and Aoi Todo all possess innate techniques despite being born to non-sorcerer families.

29. #29Extension Techniqueselective

    Keys: Extension Technique

    Extension Techniques are original abilities derived from innate techniques. Innate techniques cannot be changed or altered, but they can be trained and expanded on through creativity to maximize their applications into extension techniques. E.g. Collapse is a more powerful application of Kento Nanami's Ratio Technique. In the case of inherited techniques, sorcerers pass down the original moves that they create. E.g. Blue and Red of the Limitless.

30. #30Maximumselective

    Keys: Maximum · Secondary: Output

    Extension techniques with the highest possible cursed energy output channeled into them. Not to be confused with Maximum Techniques, these moves are also titled Stack.

31. #31Maximum Techniqueselective

    Keys: Maximum Technique, Final Cursed Technique

    Maximum Techniques: Extension techniques that realize the greatest potential of their derived innate technique. They are the most supreme art of any sorcerer outside of domain expansion, e.g. Suguru's Maximum: Uzumaki is the maximum technique of his Cursed Spirit Manipulation.

32. #32Non-Innate Techniqueselective

    Keys: Non-Innate Technique

    Cursed techniques that aren't considered innate techniques are ubiquitous skills that anyone with enough cursed energy can learn to use with enough training. However, the aptitude for learning them differs from person to person. These include barriers techniques, shikigami jutsu, and new shadow style among other techniques.

33. #33Barrier Techniqueselective

    Keys: Barrier Technique

    Barrier Techniques are cursed techniques that employ barrier zones to trap entities within a space or to prevent them from entering one. Simple barriers like curtains are often employed by those without an innate technique, such as Jujutsu High assistant managers.

    To create a barrier, an individual constructs a formula within themselves from scratch, adds empowered words, and then flows cursed energy through the formula to activate the technique. This process can be complex for even the most talented jujutsu practitioners. Many strong sorcerers with innate techniques can't perform barrier techniques. E.g. creating a barrier is simple enough, but making it so only certain people can exit requires advanced skills.

34. #34Simple Barrierselective

    Keys: Simple Barrier, Basic Barrier

    Barriers are used to conceal, contain, or deny entry to others within that space. Anyone with enough cursed energy is capable of learning to deploy a barrier.

35. #35Curtainselective

    Keys: Curtain, Veil

    Curtains are vast, simple barriers with a spherical shell that conceal jujutsu activity from non-sorcerers and force cursed spirits to reveal themselves within the specified space.

36. #36Domain Expansionselective

    Keys: Domain Expansion

    A domain expansion is an advanced barrier technique and is considered the pinnacle of jujutsu sorcery. An innate domain manifested using cursed energy inside a barrier imbued with the user's innate technique. Expanding one's domain improves their abilities and ensures that all techniques employed within the barrier are guaranteed to hit their target. A specific hand sign or signal unique to the user is required to expand someone's respective domain. From the outside, a domain's barrier is normally completely closed, making it appear as a floating black sphere that can even be moved slightly if needed. Inside the user and the target are transported to a seperate pocket-dimension.

37. #37Lethal Domainselective

    Keys: Lethal Domain

    Domains that are expanded to be lethal are constructed within a barrier imbued with the user's cursed technique. The caster's abilities are amplified and any cursed techniques deployed within the domain are guaranteed to hit their target. This sure-hit factor is derived from the barrier's embedded technique, which is what makes this type of domain considered lethal. These can't-miss attacks can't even be stopped by Satoru Gojo's Infinity. However, not all guaranteed hits are necessarily lethal. Kinji Hakari's domain technically possesses a sure-hit function, but it only transfers information to its target in exchange for faster technique activation and strength in a clash of domains.

    Lethal domain expansions require immense skill and cursed energy to construct. Not only do they require the user to manifest a massive artificial environment, but they must be able to erect their own barrier and infuse it with their cursed technique in a timely fashion as well. Megumi Fushiguro for example, cannot expand a completed lethal domain because he struggles to create an independent space using a barrier.

38. #38Non-Lethal Domainselective

    Keys: Non-Lethal Domain

    In the past, Domain Expansion was a more common technique because domains weren't constructed to be fatal. They only forced targets inside to obey the rules of the embedded cursed technique. As more domains were constructed to be lethal, the number of users greatly decreased over time. Hiromi Higuruma's Deadly Sentencing is an example of an old-style, non-lethal domain that forces his opponent into a trial.

39. #39Incomplete Domainselective

    Keys: Incomplete Domain

    Innate domains that are expanded using only cursed energy without an embedded cursed technique are incomplete even if they include a barrier. In most cases, the same applies to domains without a fully enclosed barrier. Closing the barrier fully integrates the embedded technique into the domain and enables its sure hit effect. Without that, the caster will only receive an improved cursed technique without a can't-miss attack. Barriers forcibly enclosed using the shape of an outside environment also do not incorporate can't-miss attacks.

40. #40Domain Expansion Weaknessesselective

    Keys: Domain Expansion Weaknesses, Domain Expansion Drawbacks, Domain Expansion Countermeasures

    A domain's can't-miss attack can sometimes be countered with cursed energy reinforcement, but this is an impractical method. The only true defense against can't-miss attacks for those who cannot expand their own domain are anti-domain techniques. New Shadow Style: Simple Domain and Hollow Wicker Basket neutralize the barrier's embedded technique in order to nullify the guaranteed hit function.

    Domains are nearly impossible to escape from the inside. The cubic volume of the space appears completely different on the inside, making finding the boundary's location difficult for anyone trapped inside. Anyone searching for the edge of the domain is likely to be killed by its can't-miss attack and the barrier is reinforced from the inside even if they did find it. However, the more the barrier is reinforced from the inside, the more vulnerable it is to penetration from the outside. In specific situations, an ally of the domain's target can break in from the outside to rescue them.

41. #41Domain Clashselective

    Keys: Domain, Domain's, Domain Expansion, Domain Expansions, Domains · Secondary: Battle, Clash, Collide, Collision, Tug of war

    The best countermeasure against an opposing domain is to expand one's own domain. This will engage both combatants into a clash of domains where the more refined domain will conquer. The time it takes for one domain to dominate in a clash varies on that difference in refinement. E.g. Satoru Gojo's superior domain immediately dominated Jogo's while Dagon's domain took a much more significant amount of time to subdue Megumi's. In the case of overlapping domains, sure-hit effects cancel each other out. When two domains are completely even and the users fight with their domains open, the moment one combatant takes heavy damage or their domain collapses, the other's can't-miss attack will immediately strike. A clash of three domains is even more complicated than two and too many conflicting factors can cause the barriers to shatter before the domains are completely formed.

    Domain clashes don't always have to result in one domain conquering the other. Using Domain Expansion against a more refined domain can create a hole in the barrier for them to escape from as well.

42. #42Empty Barrierselective

    Keys: Empty Barrier

    Vacant zones where the edge is defined by an outer shell made of hexagon-shaped panels. The structure of the area be freely altered by a skilled barrier technique user. Kenjaku converted one into a movie theater to show Choso his plan. Tengen created numerous empty barriers above the Tombs of the Star Corridor and could freely peel open a barrier or erase it completely if necessary.

43. #43Pure Barrierselective

    Keys: Pure Barrier

    A superior version of a barrier. Tengen created many of them across Japan that raise the precision of their cursed spirit suppression as well as barrier techniques cast by Jujutsu High assistant managers. Four of them; the Imperial Palace, the Tombs of the Star, the Yamakuni Mausoleum, and Mt. Hida, are crucial to the jujutsu world.

44. #44Bon Barrierselective

    Keys: Bon Barrier

    An even more superior barrier to pure barriers. Using Tengen's existing pure barriers as a foundation, Kenjaku created a bon barrier to host the Culling Game.

45. #45Domainselective

    Keys: Domain · Secondary: Counter, Anti, Countermeasure

    Anti-Domain Techniques are countermeasures designed to withstand the can't-miss attack of opposing domain expansions. They are mainly designed for those who cannot expand their own domain for any reason.

46. #46Secret Artsselective

    Keys: Secret Arts, Secret Anti-Domain Technique

    Secret Arts are unique anti-domain techniques passed down in the Big Three Sorcerer Families. Having existed for millennia, the Big Three Families have accumulated many secret skills for dealing with cursed spirits and curse users.

47. #47Esoteric Technique: Hollow Wicker Basketselective

    Keys: Esoteric Technique: Hollow Wicker Basket

    The predecessor to simple domain that erects a spherical barrier that takes the appearance of a woven basket surrounding the caster. The technique neutralizes an expanded domain's barrier to nullify its can't-miss attack.

48. #48New Shadow Style: Simple Domainselective

    Keys: New Shadow Style: Simple Domain, Simple Domain

    New Shadow Style: Simple Domain is an anti-domain technique that erects a small domain complete with a barrier around the user to protect them from the effects of a Domain Expansion.

    During the height of jujutsu in the Heian Era, Sadatsuna Ashiya created the "domain for the weak" in order to protect his followers from evil curses and curse users. Binding vows were established that forbid teaching Simple Domain to outsiders, but other sorcerers saw the technique in action and were able to copy it for themselves, something the bindings did not account for.

    Created as a counter for domain expansions, Simple Domain neutralizes a domain's guaranteed-hit function by affecting its barrier and not the imbued cursed technique. However, against a proper domain expansion, Simple Domain can only hope to buy its user time. Powerful domains can destroy simple domains within seconds.

    Simple Domains can be customized with different rules and binding vows to affect those within it, both caster and target.

    Simple Domain can also be used offensively. There are also several swordsmanship techniques within the New Shadow Style that operate around countering anyone who enters the range of the user's Simple Domain.

    Simple Domain was originally meant to be passed down through Sadatsuna Ashiya's school of thought and was forbidden to spread to outsiders. However, in the modern age, several sorcerers with no relation possess the ability to use Simple Domain. Kasumi Miwa was taught by her mentor in Junior High and Aoi Todo, who doesn't come from a sorcerer family, learned from Yuki Tsukumo.

    Simple Domain's inventor Sadatsuna Ashiya created a binding vow that restricted its usage to the school's disciples to prevent curse users from learning it.

    A particularly troublesome part of the binding vow, more akin to a curse, supposedly allows the head to absorb the lifespans of the disciples. However, this can't be confirmed since no one knows who the head is, or how the contract is fulfilled since some disciples were able to live long lives. Even if the head were to die and the senior disciple inherits the position, their identity will remain unknown. Kusakabe explains that only the head of New Shadow Style can undo the binding vows before revealing that he is the current head and has already undone them, this is because Mei Mei had found and killed the previous head.

49. #49Secret Art: Falling Blossom Emotionselective

    Keys: Secret Art: Falling Blossom Emotion

    A secret domain countermeasure passed down in the Big Three Sorcerer Families. Rather than expanding a domain, Falling Blossom Emotion counterattacks with cursed energy the moment a domain's can't-miss attack makes contact.

50. #50Domain Amplificationselective

    Keys: Domain Amplification

    Envelops the user's body in a thin veil of their domain and automatically nullifies any cursed technique it comes into contact with. A caster cannot use domain amplification and their innate technique at the same time.
