Yes, "Jujutsu Kaisen" (呪術廻戦) is a hugely popular anime (and manga) series!
Here's a quick, spoiler-light synopsis:
It follows high school student Yuji Itadori, a super athletic but otherwise ordinary guy with a strong sense of justice. When his friends accidentally unleash dangerous cursed spirits (evil entities born from negative human emotions), Yuji swallows a powerful cursed object—one of the fingers of the legendary King of Curses, Ryomen Sukuna—to save someone, becoming Sukuna's vessel in the process.
To prevent Sukuna from fully taking over (and to protect the world from the catastrophe that would follow if all of Sukuna's fingers are collected), Yuji joins Tokyo Jujutsu High, a secret school for jujutsu sorcerers who fight curses using cursed energy and special techniques. Under the guidance of powerful sorcerers like the charismatic Satoru Gojo, Yuji trains, battles increasingly dangerous curses, and navigates intense action-packed conflicts alongside classmates like Megumi Fushiguro and Nobara Kugisaki.
The series is known for its incredible fight choreography, dark supernatural horror elements mixed with humor, deep world-building around cursed energy, and a cast of memorable (and often morally complex) characters. It's a modern shonen classic with high-stakes battles and emotional moments.
If you're into action, demons/spirits, and cool power systems (think a darker, more brutal take on something like Naruto or Bleach vibes), it's definitely worth checking out! The anime is produced by MAPPA and has two seasons so far, plus the prequel movie Jujutsu Kaisen 0.
