Jujutsu Kaisenis an action-packed animesurrounding main character and high school student Yuji Itadori. In an attempt to find an interesting after-school activity, Yuji joins an Occult Research Club where he accidentally releases a series of Curses, including one upon himself called Sukuna. Normally, Yuji would need to be exorcised (and subsequently killed) immediately, but Yuji has a unique strength and control over himself while under possession. Given this, Yuji is given an opportunity to kill the Curse himself so that he may live.
The news followsthe recent collaboration between theDemon Slayerfranchiseand the same company last March. Dydo started the series of anime collaborations after the company was nearly forced to close its doors due to the strain fromthe COVID-19 pandemic. The majority of DyDo’s sales come from in-store or vending machine purchases and the hard restrictions of the pandemic over the last two years led to an incredible fall in sales. The collaborations between Dydo,Demon Slayer, andJujutsu Kaisenhave allowed the company to stay afloat.
