Maki Zenin and Mai Zenin

The world is set in a Japanese historical context where negative human emotions manifest as "curses." Its story spans from a "golden age" of jujutsu in the Heian Period (794-1185 AD), when Sukuna existed, to a modern era (2018) where sorcerers protect humanity.
Key Points of the Historical Context:
Heian Period (Golden Age): Over 1000 years ago, this was the time of greatest sorcery activity, notably the existence of Ryomen Sukuna, the king of curses.
Meiji Period (1868-1912): Noritoshi Kamo created the nine cursed wombs.
Modern Era (2018): The current story follows Yuji Itadori, immersed in the secret society of sorcerers who manage curses.

The power system is based on Cursed Energy, generated by negative human emotions. Sorcerers control this energy to execute innate techniques, reverse techniques (healing), barrier techniques, and domain expansions, with a strong focus on inherited abilities, physical limitations (innate talent), and binding vows.
Key Concepts of the Power System:
Cursed (Negative) Energy: Base energy that flows from negative emotions (fear, hatred). It is used to enhance physical attacks or activate techniques.
Cursed Techniques (Innate): Unique abilities ingrained in the body from birth. They are divided into types according to genetics.
Reverse Curse Technique (Positive): The conversion of cursed (negative) energy into positive energy for healing and regeneration; given its complexity, not all sorcerers can use it.
Domain Expansion: The ultimate technique. It creates a barrier that encloses a space and materializes the user's internal environment, guaranteeing that their technique will hit the opponent.
Binding Votes: Rules imposed on oneself or agreements with others that limit abilities to increase one's power.
Celestial Restriction: A binding vow imposed at birth where physical ability is sacrificed for greater energy, or vice versa.
Black Flash: A phenomenon that occurs when cursed energy is applied within a millionth of a second after a physical impact, causing spatial distortion and exponential destructive power.
Power Classification:
Curses and Sorcerers: They are classified from grade 4 to grade 1. Those of Special Grade exceed this scale, being capable of destroying countries.
Cursed Tools: Objects imbued with cursed energy that allow users to fight against curses or increase their power.

The three great sorcerer clans in Jujutsu Kaisen are the Gojo, Zenin, and Kamo, formed during the Heian Period and pillars of jujutsu society. They are characterized by high-level inherited cursed techniques and great political influence, with the Gojo Clan being notable for Satoru Gojo, the Zenin for their summoning techniques, and the Kamo for their blood manipulation.

Gojo Clan: This clan is the most influential due to Satoru Gojo, the only person to simultaneously possess the Unlimited Cursed Technique and the "Six Eyes." They are descended from Sugawara no Michizane, a vengeful spirit.
Zenin Clan: They deeply value lineage and technical prowess. They are known for the "Ten Shadow Technique," used by Megumi Fushiguro, and for powerful members like Toji and Naobito. They focus on physical strength and inherited techniques.

The Zenin Clan is one of the Three Great Clans of sorcerers in Jujutsu Kaisen, characterized by their obsession with power, tradition, and the purity of inherited cursed techniques.
