[00:01] Fushiguro
    Under Jujutsu regulations, Itadori Yuji,
[00:05] Fushiguro
    I will exorcise you as a curse!
[00:09] Yuji
    Wait, really, I'm just fine!
[00:11] Yuji
    More importantly, you and I
    are both pretty beat up.
[00:14] Yuji
    Let's get to a hospital.
[00:16] Fushiguro
    I can't tell if the one speaking right now
    is Itadori or the cursed object...
[00:21] Fushiguro
    Damn it! What should I do?!
[00:23] Gojo
    What's the situation?
[00:26] Fushiguro
    Gojo-sensei?! Why are you here?
[00:28] Gojo
    Hey.
[00:30] Gojo
    I wasn't planning on coming,
[00:32] Gojo
    but man, you're roughed up.
[00:34] Gojo
    I should show the second-years.
[00:37] Gojo
    Face this way.
[00:38] Gojo
    The higher-ups wouldn't shut up with a
    special-grade cursed object gone missing.
[00:43] Gojo
    So I stopped by while
    doing some sightseeing.
[00:46] Gojo
    So, did you find it?
[00:49] Yuji
    Um...
[00:51] Yuji
    Sorry, but I ate it.
[00:56] Gojo
    For real?
[00:56] Fushi/Yuji
    For real.
[01:08] Gojo
    Damn, it really did combine with you.
[01:10] Gojo
    That's hilarious.
[01:11] Gojo
    Anything off with your body?
[01:13] Yuji
    Not particularly.
[01:14] Gojo
    Can you swap out with Sukuna?
[01:16] Yuji
    Sukuna?
[01:17] Gojo
    The curse you ate.
[01:19] Yuji
    Oh... Yeah, I think I can do that.
[01:23] Gojo
    Then give us ten seconds.
[01:24] Gojo
    Once ten seconds are up, come back to us.
[01:27] Yuji
    But...
[01:28] Gojo
    Don't worry, I'm the strongest.
[01:32] Gojo
    Megumi, hold on to this.
[01:35] Fushiguro
    What is it?
[01:36] Gojo
    Kikufuku from Kikusuian.
[01:38] Mochiwrapper
    Kikufuku
[01:38] Gojo
    It's Sendai's specialty, and it's super good.
[01:40] Gojo
    I recommend the zunda and cream flavor.
[01:43] Fushiguro
    This guy actually went and bought souvenirs!
[01:45] Fushiguro
    When people were out here dying!
[01:47] Gojo
    It's not a souvenir.
[01:48] Gojo
    I'm going to eat it on the bullet train home.
[01:52] Fushiguro
    Behind you!
[01:52] Gojo
    Kikufuku's not like other souvenirs...
[02:04] Gojo
    And the whipped cream
    inside is simply exquisite...
[02:14] Gojo
    My student's watching,
[02:16] Gojo
    so I'm going to show off a little.
[02:22] Sukuna
    He's unbelievably fast?
[02:24] Sukuna
    No, that's not it...
[02:31] Sukuna
    For crying out loud...
[02:33] Sukuna
    You jujutsu sorcerers are always trouble,
[02:36] Sukuna
    no matter what the era!
[02:46] Sukuna
    Though that doesn't mean much to me.
[02:51] Gojo
    Seven...
[02:52] Gojo
    Eight...
[02:53] Gojo
    Nine...
[02:54] Gojo
    Should be time.
[02:58] Sukuna
    Damn it... Again?
[03:00] Sukuna
    I can't take over.
[03:02] Sukuna
    Who the hell is this... Itadori... brat?
[03:09] Yuji
    Oh, was everything okay?
[03:11] Gojo
    I'm shocked.
[03:13] Gojo
    You really can control it.
[03:15] Yuji
    He's kind of annoying, though.
[03:17] Yuji
    I can hear his voice.
[03:19] Gojo
    It's a miracle that's all he's doing.
[03:30] Fushiguro
    What did you do?
[03:31] Gojo
    Knocked him out.
[03:34] Gojo
    If he isn't possessed by
    Sukuna when he wakes up,
[03:38] Gojo
    he might have potential as a vessel.
[03:41] Gojo
    Now, I have a question for you.
[03:43] Gojo
    What should we do with him?
[03:48] Fushiguro
    Even if he is a vessel,
[03:50] Fushiguro
    jujutsu regulations demand
    Itadori be executed.
[03:54] Fushiguro
    However...
[03:55] Fushiguro
    I don't want to let him die.
[03:58] Gojo
    Your personal feelings?
[04:00] Fushiguro
    Yes. Please do something about this.
[04:04] Gojo
    Now it's a request from a precious student.
[04:07] Gojo
    Leave it to me!
[04:09] Gojo
    With that, allow me to say it once more.
[04:11] Gojo
    You're being executed.
[04:14] Yuji
    The recap and current
    events don't line up, though.
[04:17] Gojo
    Hey, I did my best.
[04:19] Gojo
    The execution's still on,
    but I got your sentence suspended.
[04:23] Yuji
    Suspended?
[04:25] Yuji
    So you're not killing me right away?
[04:27] Gojo
    Yup.
[04:28] Gojo
    I'll explain from the top.
[04:30] Gojo
    This is the same as the cursed object you ate.
[04:33] Gojo
    There are twenty in total.
[04:35] Gojo
    We possess six of them.
[04:38] Yuji
    Twenty?
[04:39] Yuji
    Oh, each finger and toe?
[04:40] Gojo
    No, Sukuna has four arms.
[04:51] Gojo
    As you can see, we can't destroy them.
[04:53] Gojo
    The curse is just that powerful.
[04:55] Gojo
    The curse grows stronger by the day,
[04:58] Gojo
    and the seals of modern-day
    jujutsu sorcerers can't keep up.
[05:01] Gojo
    That's where you come in.
[05:03] Gojo
    When you die, the curse
    inside you will die, as well.
[05:08] Gojo
    Our elders are cowards, you know.
[05:10] Gojo
    They're demanding we kill you right away.
[05:14] Gojo
    But that would be a waste, wouldn't it?
[05:16] Yuji
    A waste?
[05:18] Gojo
    There's no guarantee another vessel capable
    of handling Sukuna will ever be born again.
[05:22] Gojo
    So this is what I proposed:
[05:26] Gojo
    If we're going to kill you anyway,
[05:27] Gojo
    why not kill you after you've
    absorbed all of Sukuna?
[05:32] Gojo
    The higher-ups agreed.
[05:33] Gojo
    So now you have two options before you.
[05:37] Gojo
    You can die right now,
[05:39] Gojo
    or you can find all the parts of Sukuna
[05:41] Gojo
    and die after you've absorbed them.

[07:25] Sasaki
    Itadori.
[07:28] Yuji
    How's Iguchi-senpai doing?
[07:33] Sasaki
    The doctors say he's fine,
[07:37] Sasaki
    but he hasn't regained consciousness.
[07:40] Sasaki
    It's all my fault.
[07:42] Sasaki
    If I hadn't asked him to come
    to the school that night...
[07:49] Sasaki
    I know you won't believe this,
[07:52] Sasaki
    but this weird monster attacked us,
[07:55] Sasaki
    and I was captured, too.
[07:57] Yuji
    I believe you.
[07:59] Yuji
    Those weren't monsters. They were curses.
[08:05] Yuji
    That finger was a special-grade cursed object.
[08:08] Yuji
    It had the power to draw other
    curses to it and make them stronger.
[08:12] Yuji
    So it wasn't your fault.
[08:15] Yuji
    It was mine for picking it up.
[08:20] Yuji
    Sorry.
[08:22] Yuji
    It'll be all right, though.
[08:23] Yuji
    Someone capable of fixing
    Iguchi-senpai will be here tomorrow.
[08:27] Sasaki
    Itadori?
[08:29] Yuji
    Sorry, Senpai.
[08:30] Yuji
    There's somewhere I need to go.
[08:35] Yuji
    Bye-bye.
[08:45] Gojo
    Who passed away?
[08:47] Yuji
    My grandpa. Although he
    was like a father to me.
[08:50] Gojo
    I see. Sorry it happened at a time like that.
[08:56] Gojo
    So have you decided what you want to do?
[09:01] Yuji
    Are casualties like these
    from curses pretty common?
[09:05] Gojo
    This one was a rather exceptional case,
[09:08] Gojo
    but in terms of the damage,
    it happens all the time.
[09:11] Gojo
    It's a good night when someone dies
    a normal death after encountering a curse.
[09:18] Gojo
    Finding a body that's all torn apart
    is on the better end of the outcomes.
[09:28] Gojo
    If you plan to hunt down Sukuna,
    you're going to witness some gruesome scenes,
[09:34] Gojo
    and I can't guarantee you
    won't end up that way yourself.
[09:38] Gojo
    So choose your hell.
[09:49] (Flashback) Grandpa
    You're a strong kid, so help others.
[09:59] Yuji
    If all the parts of Sukuna were gone,
[10:02] Yuji
    would there be fewer people
    who get harmed by curses?
[10:10] Gojo
    Of course.
[10:19] Yuji
    Do you still have that finger?
[10:26] Yuji
    Looking at it again, it's pretty disgusting.
[10:37] Gojo
    Well, that's the second one.
    One tenth of the whole.
[10:41] Gojo
    What's going to happen?
[11:03] Yuji
    Gross!
[11:04] Yuji
    So gross it's funny.
[11:07] Gojo
    That settles it.
[11:08] Gojo
    It's not just a physical tolerance.
[11:10] Gojo
    He can control himself
    against Sukuna without issue.
[11:13] Gojo
    We haven't seen someone with
    talent like that in a thousand years.
[11:17] Yuji
    Something wrong?
[11:18] Gojo
    Oh, it's nothing.
[11:20] Gojo
    I take it this means you've
    steeled your resolve?
[11:26] Yuji
    Not at all.
[11:27] Yuji
    I'm still wondering why
    I have to be executed.
[11:30] Yuji
    But I can't just do nothing about the curse.
[11:34] Yuji
    That last request is gonna be a pain in my ass.
[11:39] Yuji
    I'll eat every part of Sukuna.
    I don't care what happens from there.
[11:43] Yuji
    I've already decided how I'm going to die.
[11:47] Gojo
    Nice! I like people like you.
[11:51] Gojo
    Sounds like a fun hell awaits.
[11:53] Yuji
    Make sure you're packed
    by the end of the day.
[11:55] ---
    We going somewhere?
[11:57] Fushiguro
    Tokyo.
[11:58] Yuji
    Fushiguro! You're looking good!
[12:01] Fushiguro
    You think so after seeing this?
[12:03] Fushiguro
    You're going to transfer to the same
    school for jujutsu sorcerers I attend.
[12:07] Yuji
    Huh?
[12:09] Gojo
    Tokyo Jujustu High School.
[12:13] Gojo
    By the way, you're the third first-year.
[12:17] Yuji
    Only three?!
[12:26] Yuji
    Okay, I'm heading out, Grandpa.
SIGN    Itadori Family Grave
[12:34] Yuji
    This is really deep in the mountains!
[12:36] Yuji
    Is this actually Tokyo?
[12:38] Gojo
    Even Tokyo's like this on the outskirts.
[12:41] Yuji
    Where's Fushiguro?
[12:42] Gojo
    He's been treated by a sorcerer,
    and now he's fast asleep.
[12:46] Gojo
    Tokyo Jujustu High School.
SIGN    Tokyo Jujutsu High School
[12:50] Gojo
    It's one of only two jujutsu
    educational facilities.
[12:55] Gojo
    On the surface, it's known
    as a private religious school.
[12:59] Gojo
    Many jujutsu sorcerers continue
    to use it as a base after graduation,
[13:04] Gojo
    so it's a pillar of the jujutsu community
[13:06] Gojo
    not just in education, but for
    support and mediation in missions.
[13:11] Gojo
    Anyway, you're about to have
    an interview with the principal.
[13:14] Yuji
    The principal?
[13:16] Gojo
    Screw it up and he could reject
    your admission, so go all-out.
[13:19] Yuji
    Huh?!
[13:20] Yuji
    And what then? Immediate execution?!
[13:23] Sukuna
    What?
[13:24] Sukuna
    So you're not the boss?
[13:28] Sukuna
    Any hierarchy other
    than strength is worthless.
[13:32] Yuji
    Sorry, Sensei.
[13:34] Yuji
    He pops out sometimes.
[13:35] Gojo
    What an amusing body you have now.
[13:38] Sukuna
    I owe you a favor, you know.
[13:39] Yuji
    Not again!
[13:40] Sukuna
    Once I make this brat's body my own,
    you'll be the first one I kill!
[13:45] Gojo
    It's an honor to be targeted by Sukuna.
[13:49] Yuji
    This guy's really that famous?
[13:51] Gojo
    Ryomen Sukuna is a fierce imaginary
    god with four arms and two faces.
[13:57] Gojo
    But he's actually a human that really existed,
[13:59] Gojo
    though it was over a thousand years ago.
[14:03] Gojo
    In the golden age of jujutsu,
[14:05] Gojo
    sorcerers gathered up all their might
    to challenge him and failed.
[14:09] Gojo
    Crowned with the title of Sukuna,
[14:11] Gojo
    we couldn't even destroy his grave wax
[14:14] Gojo
    as he traversed the ages
    after death as a cursed object.
[14:17] Gojo
    Without a doubt, he is the king of curses.
[14:21] Yuji
    Who's stronger, you or him?
[14:23] Gojo
    Well...
[14:25] Gojo
    If Sukuna regained all of his power,
[14:27] Gojo
    it might be a little draining.
[14:29] Yuji
    Would you lose?
[14:32] Gojo
    I'd win.
[14:41] Yaga
    You're late, Satoru.
[14:43] Yaga
    Eight minutes late.
[14:46] Yaga
    Not enough to chastise you for,
[14:48] Yaga
    but I know I told you to fix
    your habit of being late.
[14:52] Yuji
    That old dude's making cute things!
[14:55] Gojo
    If it's not enough to chastise me for,
    then don't chastise me.
[14:59] Gojo
    You're just making dolls, anyway.
    What's a measly eight minutes?
[15:03] Gojo
    That's Principal Yaga Masamichi.
[15:06] Yaga
    That's the boy?
[15:08] Yuji
    Itadori Yuji!
[15:09] Yuji
    I'm into girls like Jennifer Lawrence!
    Pleasure to meet you!
[15:12] Yaga
    What did you come here for?
[15:16] Yuji
    An interview.
[15:16] Yaga
    But why Jujutsu High?
[15:19] Yuji
    To learn jujutsu?
[15:21] Yaga
    I mean beyond that.
[15:23] Yaga
    What do you hope to find once you've studied
    curses and learned how to exorcise them?
[15:30] Yuji
    Well, I mean... I'm going to
    collect the fingers of Sukuna.
[15:35] Yuji
    It's dangerous to just leave them as is.
[15:37] Yaga
    Why?
[15:40] Yaga
    People you'll never know
    die every day due to crimes,
[15:44] Yaga
    accidents, and diseases
    in the natural course of life.
[15:47] Gojo
    Here he goes again.
[15:48] Yaga
    But you're telling me you can't overlook it
    when that death is caused by a curse?
[15:53] Yuji
    It was someone's dying wish.
[15:55] Yuji
    I don't care about the details.
[15:57] Yuji
    I just want to save people.
[16:00] Yaga
    A dying wish?
[16:02] Yaga
    So you're saying you'll fight against curses
    because someone else told you to?
[16:07] Yaga
    You fail.
[16:14] Yuji
    Those weren't dolls?!
[16:17] Yaga
    Cursed corpses. They're dolls.
[16:20] Yaga
    Dolls infused with my curse.
[16:29] Yuji
    It's heavy!
[16:33] Yuji
    Is that really a doll?!
[16:36] Yaga
    A person's true nature
    reveals itself during a crisis.
[16:40] Yaga
    I'll keep attacking you until
    I get an acceptable answer.
[16:44] Yuji
    Look, man, it wasn't just "someone else."
[16:48] Yuji
    It was a family member's dying wish!
[17:01] Yuji
    Shit, where is it?!
[17:08] ---
    Ow...
[17:09] Yaga
    A family member is still "someone else."
[17:18] Yuji
    Right, it's a doll.
[17:20] Yuji
    It doesn't get hurt or frightened.
[17:22] Yaga
    A jujutsu sorcerer is
    constantly facing death.
[17:25] Yaga
    And not just their own death.
[17:27] Yaga
    Sometimes you must ignore those murdered
    by a curse to rend the flesh from it.
[17:33] Yaga
    It's an unpleasant job.
[17:35] Yaga
    You have to be a little crazy
    and highly motivated to handle it.
[17:39] Yaga
    You'd do that because
    someone else told you to?
[17:42] Yaga
    Don't make me laugh.
[17:44] Yaga
    It'd be more believable if you told me you
    were doing it to postpone your execution.
[17:48] Yuji
    Screw you! I—
[17:49] Yaga
    Are you going to blame your grandfather
    when you're killed by a curse, too?
[17:57] Yuji
    You say some pretty damn
    harsh things, old man.
[18:01] Yaga
    Education is making people realize things.
[18:04] Yuji
    I'm not really...
[18:14] Yaga
    It's not easy to imagine how
    you'll feel on the verge of death.
[18:19] Yaga
    However, I can say one thing for certain.
[18:22] Yaga
    At the rate you're going, you could end
    up cursing your beloved grandfather.
[18:27] Yaga
    Jujutsu sorcerers never die without regret.
[18:30] Yaga
    I'll ask you once more.
[18:32] Yaga
    Why have you come here to Jujutsu High?
[18:37] Yuji
    I was always better than
    most in sports and in fights.
[18:42] Yuji
    But never once did I think,
    "This is something only I can do."
[18:53] Yuji
    Consuming Sukuna is something only I can do.
[18:57] Yuji
    If I managed to escape my death sentence
[18:59] Yuji
    and ran away from this responsibility,
[19:02] Yuji
    I'd be there eating food,
    taking a bath, or reading manga,
[19:07] Yuji
    and the moment I stopped to think, I'd go,
[19:11] Yuji
    "Oh, I bet someone's dying because of
    Sukuna right now," and become depressed.
[19:16] Yuji
    "That doesn't involve me."
[19:18] Yuji
    "It's not my fault."
[19:20] Yuji
    You expect me to just tell myself that?
[19:24] Yuji
    I refuse to do that.
[19:27] Yuji
    I don't know how I'll feel when I'm dying,
[19:30] Yuji
    but I don't want to regret the way I lived!
[19:35] Yaga
    Satoru.
[19:36] Yaga
    Show him to the dorm.
[19:38] Yaga
    Explain the security and
    everything else to him, too.
[19:42] Yuji
    Huh?
[19:44] Yaga
    You pass.
[19:46] Yaga
    Welcome to Jujutsu High.
[19:53] Yaga
    Oh, sorry.
[19:54] Yaga
    I forgot to release the curse.
[19:59] Yuji
    This place is huge!
[20:01] Gojo
    All the second- and third-years
    are out at the moment.
[20:03] Yuji
    Hello!
[20:04] Gojo
    But you'll meet them soon enough.
[20:04] Yuji
    Is anybody home?
[20:06] Gojo
    There aren't many of them.
[20:07] Gojo
    But there's really no reason
    for you to fight, too, is there?
[20:11] Gojo
    Fushiguro and I could
    retrieve Sukuna's fingers.
[20:14] Gojo
    You could just wait here.
[20:16] Yuji
    It's fine! I said I'd do it, and I'm doing it!
[20:20] Yuji
    Though lazing around...
[20:22] ---
    Hey.
[20:24] Yuji
    ...while Fushiguro came in all beaten up
    to bring me a finger would be a funny sight.
[20:27] Gojo
    That's true.
[20:29] Gojo
    Well, I know there's no way
    in hell you're not gonna fight.
[20:34] Yuji
    Hey! You were testing me?!
[20:37] Gojo
    If they were that easy to find,
    we would've found them all already.
[20:42] Gojo
    Some have a presence that's overwhelming.
[20:44] Gojo
    Some keep very quiet.
[20:46] Gojo
    Some have already been
    absorbed by a cursed spirit.
[20:49] Gojo
    There's nothing more troublesome
    when it comes to searching for them.
[20:54] Gojo
    But now we have you.
[20:57] Gojo
    The Sukuna within you will tell us where
    the fingers are to try to regain his power.
[21:02] Gojo
    You're both vessel and locator,
[21:05] Gojo
    our very own radar.
[21:07] Gojo
    So we won't get anywhere
    without you in the field.
[21:10] Yuji
    You think he's going to be that nice?
[21:13] Gojo
    I think we can come to a
    win-win agreement there.
[21:17] Fushiguro
    You're next door?
[21:18] Yuji
    Oh, Fushiguro!
[21:20] Yuji
    You look like you're doing well now.
[21:21] Fushiguro
    There were plenty of other
    empty rooms, weren't there?
[21:24] Gojo
    But isn't livelier better?
[21:26] Gojo
    I thought it'd be good for—
[21:27] Fushiguro
    Classes and missions are enough.
[21:29] Fushiguro
    This was an unwelcome favor.
[21:31] Yuji
    Wow, it's so organized.
[21:33] Fushiguro
    I just said you're unwelcome!
[21:37] Gojo
    Well, it's all good.
[21:39] Gojo
    More importantly, we're heading out tomorrow!
[21:41] Gojo
    We're gonna go pick up the third first-year.
[21:48] Station
    The train bound for Tokyo is now arriving.
[21:52] Station
    For your safety, please
    stand behind the yellow line.
[21:57] Kugizaki
    It took four hours just
    to get as far as Morioka.
[22:00] Kugizaki
    I can finally kiss that
    damn countryside goodbye.
[22:07] Kugizaki
    Guess I'll be in Tokyo by the afternoon.
[22:09] Kugizaki
    What should I do if I get scouted?
[22:12] Kugizaki
    Like, by Stardust?
