Plot

Yuuji Itadori is an unnaturally fit high school student living in Sendai with his grandfather. He regularly avoids the track team due to his aversion to athletics, despite his innate talent for the sport. Instead, he chooses to join the Occult Research Club, where he is able to relax and hang out with his seniors, and leave school by 5:00 pm to visit his grandfather in the hospital. While he is on his deathbed, his grandfather instills two powerful messages within Yuuji - "always help people" and "die surrounded by a crowd". After his grandfather's death, Yuuji interprets these messages as one statement - everyone deserves "a proper death". He is then confronted by Megumi Fushiguro, a {{Nihongo|sorceror|巫 かんなぎ||Shaman}} who informs him of a high-grade cursed charm talisman at his school that Yuuji recently made contact with. His friends at the Occult Club unsealed the talisman, a rotting finger, which attracted Curses to the school, creatures that are brought about through negative emotions and are strengthened by consuming magical powers present in sorcerers or such charms. Unable to defeat the Curses due to his lack of magical powers, Yuuji swallows the finger to protect Megumi and his friends and becomes the host of Sukuna, a powerful Curse. Due to Sukuna's evil nature, all sorcerers are required to exorcise him (and by extension, Yuuji) immediately. However, despite being possessed, Yuuji is still able to retain control over his body for the most part. Seeing this, Satoru Gojou, Megumi's teacher, decides to take him to the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College to propose a plan to his superiors - postpone Yuuji's death sentence until he consumes all of Sukuna's fingers, allowing them to kill him once and for all.

Characters

{{Nihongo|Yuuji Itadori|虎杖 悠仁|4=Itadori Yūji}}

A 15-year-old athlete who joins his schools's Occult Club to avoid the track team. After finding and opening a box containing a cursed charm resembling a rotting finger, his school is attacked by phantom-like creatures known as Curses. In order to protect his friends, he consumes the rotting finger and becomes possessed by a Curse known as Ryoumen Sukuna. He later joins the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College under the tutelage of Satoru Gojou, where he is placed under a sort of death sentence, which has been suspended until he consumes all of Sukuna's fingers in order to kill himself and Sukuna at the same time.

{{Nihongo|Megumi Fushiguro|伏黒 恵|4=Fushiguro Megumi}}

A sorcerer studying in first year at the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College under the tutelage of Satoru Gojou. He meets Yuuji when trying to locate a high-grade cursed charm talisman at his high school. He is the one that convinces Satoru to try to save Yuuji from his execution after his possession by Sukuna. He uses his magic power to create {{Nihongo|spirits|式神|4=Shikigami}} out of his own shadows to exorcise Curses. He has been noted to have high potential as a sorcerer by several other powerful people, including Sukuna himself.

{{Nihongo|Satoru Gojō|五ご条じょう悟さとる|4=Gojō Satoru}}

A sorcerer working as a teacher in the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College. He teaches Yuuji Itadori, Megumi Fushiguro and Nobara Kugisaki. He convinces his superiors at the college to keep Yuuji alive until he consumes all of Sukuna's fingers. Even though his title of 'The Strongest' is self-proclaimed, most allies and enemies alike never actually dispute the title and generally consider him to be one of the most dangerous people alive. As a result, he is widely respected and venerated by sorcerers, even by those in the college's sister school in Kyoto, and holds high influence in the sorcery world. He uses his magic power to control the space around him in innumerable ways.

{{Nihongo|Nobara Kugisaki|釘くぎ崎さき野の薔ば薇ら|4=Kugisaki Nobara}}

A sorcerer studying in first year at the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College under the tutelage of Satoru Gojou. She transferred to the college so that she could live in Tokyo without any expenses. She meets Yuuji Itadori and Megumi Fushiguro during her first official mission as a sorcerer. She uses a charm weapon hammer and nails infused with her magic power to exorcise Curses.

{{Nihongo|Sukuna|宿すく儺な|4=Sukuna}} / {{Nihongo|Double-Faced Spectre|両りょう面めん宿すく儺な|4=Ryōmen Sukuna}}

A high-grade curse who is considered to be the undisputed 'King of Curses'. According to legend, Sukuna was a demon resembling a human with four arms who appeared during the prime era of sorcery. Sorcerers of this time period found that they were unable to fully exorcise him, so they resorted to cutting up his 20 fingers and storing them as cursed charms, hoping that one day these charms would be destroyed, and as a result, he would truly be defeated. Currently, he is the "guest" of Yuuji Itadori, who contains around 3/20^th of his power. He has taken an interest in seeing Megumi Fushiguro achieve his full potential. His goal is to gain complete control over Yuuji's body and go out on a killing spree. He has an immense amount of magic power, and it is estimated that his full strength is on par with or even greater than that of Satoru Gojou, though Satoru claims otherwise.
