From the publisher

To gain the power he needs to save his friend from a cursed spirit, Yuji Itadori swallows a piece of a demon, only to find himself caught in the midst of a horrific war of the supernatural! In a world where cursed spirits feed on unsuspecting humans, fragments of the legendary and feared demon Ryomen Sukuna were lost and scattered about. Should any demon consume Sukuna’s body parts, the power they gain could destroy the world as we know it. Fortunately, there exists a mysterious school of jujutsu sorcerers who exist to protect the precarious existence of the living from the supernatural! When a cursed womb appears at a detention facility, Jujutsu High dispatches Itadori and the other first-years to handle the situation.

While they are distracted, powerful curses with mysterious designs on Jujutsu High and Satoru Gojo are gathering…
