The TV anime 'Jujutsu Kaisen' is based on the hugely popular manga by Gege Akutami, serialized in Shueisha's "Weekly Shonen Jump." The story depicts protagonist Yuji Itadori, who becomes cursed after consuming a special-grade cursed object, Sukuna's finger, and is thrust into a fierce battle between Jujutsu Sorcerers and Cursed Spirits. Its profound world-building, severe storyline, and powerful battle scenes have gained immense popularity, with cumulative circulation exceeding 150 million copies. The TV anime was broadcast in October 2020 and July 2023, and in December 2021, the first film in the series, 'Jujutsu Kaisen 0,' depicting a prequel to the main story, was released, becoming a massive hit with worldwide box office revenue of 26.5 billion yen and over 20.51 million viewers worldwide. In January 2026, the third season of the TV anime 'Jujutsu Kaisen' "Culling Game Part 1" began broadcasting, further increasing its popularity.

The result shows that "Akita Prefecture" watched the TV anime 'Jujutsu Kaisen' the most on ABEMA from January to March 2026.

【Work Overview】

＜INTRODUCTION＞

After the Shibuya Incident, the Culling Game, a battle royale among those granted Jujutsu by Kenjaku, suddenly begins across 10 barriers (colonies) nationwide.

Itadori, burdened by guilt over the mass murders in Shibuya and wary of Sukuna targeting Fushiguro, did not return to Jujutsu High and instead focused on exterminating the vast number of Cursed Spirits released by Kenjaku with Choso.

Amidst this chaos, the Jujutsu High higher-ups revoked Yuji Itadori's suspended death sentence and appointed special-grade sorcerer Yuta Okkotsu as his executioner. Yuta confronts Itadori to fulfill his mission.

Modern sorcerers newly awakened as players in the Culling Game, and past sorcerers resurrected through incarnation.

Various intentions intertwine, pushing towards another golden age of Jujutsu--.
