Complicated Cursed Techniques in Jujutsu Kaisen

Jujutsu Kaisen has some of the most complicated power systems among recent shonen anime, with even minor characters wielding fascinating innate cursed techniques. Let’s discuss about it in the post below!

1) Projection Sorcery

Projection Sorcery is a Zenin clan’s inherited cursed technique, passed on in Jujutsu Kaisen from Naobito to his son Naoya Zenin. This cursed technique allows the user to treat their range of vision as a viewing angle reference, subsequently dividing a second into 24 frames per second. Once the sorcerer mentally traces a set of movements in advance, the technique allows the sorcerer to go through those motions within a second, making them too fast to follow, much less catch.

Projection Sorcery can further be used to hinder an opponent by touching and mentally tracing a path for them. Anything that has been touched and falls within the range of this cursed technique must follow the predetermined set of motions or freeze for a second. Since it is virtually impossible to guess the correct movements, the attack is a sure-hit.

2) Love Rendezvous

Kirara Hoshi’s cursed technique, Love Rendezvous, is first seen in the Perfect Preparation arc of Jujutsu Kaisen and quickly proves powerful enough to single-handedly deal with Megumi’s multiple shikigami and Panda’s attacks. Love Rendezvous is based on the constellation of Crux and the five major stars that make up the cluster. Kirara can mark their target with any one of the five stars- Imai, Acrux, Mimosa, Ginan, and Gacrux, forcing them to follow a definite path.

3) Contractual Re-creation

Contractual Re-creation is the innate cursed technique belonging to the reincarnated jujutsu sorcerer Reggie Star. In the Tokyo No. 1 Colony arc of Jujutsu Kaisen, Reggie begins targeting Megumi after the latter refuses to ally with him and unleashes his cursed technique. Contractual Re-creation allows him to use cursed energy to burn receipts and summon its contents like shikigami.

He can manipulate them to follow a single mental order, following which the contracted item disappears. Rather than the mechanism itself, what is fascinating about this technique is its range and the ingenuity with which Reggie uses it to his advantage.
