The thing about Jujutsu Kaiisen is that it's too convoluted for its good. The author adds unnecessary complications to drive the narrative forward—too many rules, rules that are incredibly inconsistent at worst or far-reaching at their best. What's the appeal, you may ask? It's obviously the action. People want to see characters ripping each other in halves in a cool, brutal, and deranged fashion. That's also where the edginess comes from. It is incredibly phony and on the surface, because the reasons for everything happening are extremely lackluster and one-dimensional. Some characters and moments are okay, but most of them are hollow and exist only so the fight can happen. This manga is very disappointing.
