The Jujutsu World

Negative emotions such as grief and anger are the foundation of cursed energy. These emotions exist to some degree within most humans and as a result, the vast majority of human beings possess cursed energy. If this amount is higher than a certain degree, it grants the person the ability to see cursed spirits. These individuals are known as jujutsu sorcerers and they are very rare among the human race. Cursed energy leaks from the human body, accumulates, and ferments over time until a cursed spirit manifests.[1] This is only the case with non-sorcerers, as sorcerers are trained to control and channel their cursed energy into jujutsu.

Cursed energy is the primary power source for any sorcerer or cursed spirit. Cursed tools, cursed objects, and cursed corpses all contain cursed energy as well. It is ordinarily used to fuel cursed techniques, reinforce the body, or activate talismans, but cursed energy has various uses. The properties of cursed energy vary from person to person and its connection to the human brain is shrouded in mystery. In the anime, most cursed energy is blue in color but there are several exceptions.

Cursed Energy Perception (呪じゅ力りょく感かん知ち, Juryoku Kanchi?)[2] refers to the ability of humans with above-average levels of cursed energy to sense, and especially see, curses and jujutsu. The minimum requirement for a human to be considered a sorcerer is the ability to see curses. In extreme cases, humans will gain the ability to see curses when their life is in danger.[3]

The strength of a sorcerer or curse is generally assessed by their levels of cursed energy. Strong cursed energy can result in physical pressure that instills fear into those who sense it as a method of intimidation. The same concept can be applied to a jujutsu battle where reading an opponent's cursed energy is an effective way to predict their movements. Prediction based on cursed energy can backfire when faced with a fighter in cases where their physical prowess outclasses their cursed energy. Physically fast and strong fighters with low cursed energy are often unpredictable to enemy sorcerers.[4]

Sorcerers can also notice small, vague differences in cursed energy in addition to its overall amount. Suguru Geto, a curse manipulator who must consume curses, has slightly altered cursed energy.[5] The Inverted Spear of Heaven possesses foreign cursed energy that can cancel out jujutsu.[6] Yuji Itadori, Choso, and Naoya Zenin, could sense Yuta Okkotsu's presence without even physically locating him. Yuji mistook him for Satoru Gojo, the world's strongest sorcerer, simply because of Yuta's overwhelming volume of cursed energy, before realizing it was far more ominous than their sensei's.[7]

Observing how cursed energy fluctuates as someone fights is an effective way of judging someone's overall cursed energy. Reggie Star noticed the massive shift in cursed energy output when Fumihiko Takaba suddenly attacked Iori Hazenoki.[8] Ryu Ishigori saw Yuta participate in a small scuffle and could immediately tell that his cursed energy was immeasurable. Ryu could feel as Yuta's cursed energy depleted,[9] and when Yuta connected with Rika's full manifestation, Ryu could also sense his adversary's cursed energy filling back up as well.[10]

Cursed Energy Manipulation (呪じゅ力りょく操そう作さ, Juryoku Sōsa?)[11] — the ability to control the flow of one's cursed energy and channel it to carry out certain functions — is the foundation for all jujutsu and the first step towards becoming a jujutsu sorcerer. There is a world of difference between being able to sense jujutsu and being able to use it. Yuji Itadori was able to sense the pressure of cursed energy surrounding his school, but was not able to utilize it until enrolling at a jujutsu educational facility. He was first able to utilize cursed energy in combat while he was overwhelmed with anger and fear, but could not do so in a calmer situation a few days afterward.[12]

Control over cursed energy requires innate skill and vigorous training. In order for Yuji to develop his skills, Gojo had him undergo special training that saw him controlling his emotions and his cursed energy at the same time. Yuta Okkotsu, someone with an overabundance of cursed energy, was trained to control it by constantly imbuing it into a katana. By training with the katana Yuta learned to manipulate his cursed energy to a degree and was capable of using it to exorcise curses almost immediately.

Satoru Gojo compares cursed energy to electricity: it's volatile in nature and difficult to use in its rawest form.[13] While raw cursed energy can be used for its blunt force, it's best used by sorcerers to power their techniques in the same way electricity is best used to fuel electronics. In this case, cursed energy is flowed into a technique to activate a sorcerer's unique abilities.[14] However, cursed energy does not flow on its own. Yuji Itadori's cursed energy used to lag behind his superhuman speed when he threw a punch, resulting in his Divergent Fist technique. This delay was due to his inexperience with making cursed energy flow properly throughout his body.

Proper control over one's emotions is key to channeling cursed energy and every jujutsu sorcerer is trained to do so. This makes it so sorcerers don't waste their power supply even while they're overcome with emotion.[16] This results in sorcerers leaking much less cursed energy than the average human. So much so, that if every human were a sorcerer, curses would cease to spawn. There are other differences in how sorcerers and non-sorcerers use cursed energy due to their profession, but the real reason lies in how it flows. While cursed energy leaks outward from non-sorcerers, it flows heavily within sorcerers which keeps it contained.[17]

Applying cursed energy to physical attacks can be as effective as a cursed technique when it comes to gifted combatants who specialize in hand-to-hand combat.

The amount of cursed energy released by an individual is referred to as their potential Cursed Energy Output (呪じゅ力りょく出しゅつ力りょく, Juryoku Shutsuryoku?). This applies to both how it's used offensively and defensively. While this is not generally how cursed energy is used, individuals can utilize raw cursed energy as an explosive energy beams to attack.

Defensively, users can coat their skin in cursed energy to harden their body and increase their ability to block incoming curse related attacks.[26] The same application can be used offensively, imbuing physical attacks with cursed energy to increase their destructive power to superhuman levels.

Conventional weapons can also be infused with cursed energy to increase their strength. Imbuing too much cursed energy at one time to a normal weapon can compromise its integrity and destroy it, so a sorcerer must only infuse small amounts of energy at a time.[28] Imbuing moderate amounts of cursed energy over time can transform a normal weapon into a cursed tool.[29]

There are rare cases where cursed energy carries a special property unique to its user. When applied to their fighting techniques, it can grant them a special texture or effect that gives them an advantage in battle. These special traits cannot be defended by simple reinforcement techniques.

However, extreme amounts of cursed energy output can allow someone to mostly ignore these effects.

Cursed energy is born from negativity, so human flesh can't be regenerated from it even if it can be reinforced. By multiplying negative energy together, positive energy can be created. This can only be done using reverse cursed technique, which requires extremely complex and sophisticated cursed energy control.

Black Flash is a phenomenon of jujutsu where a spatial distortion is born as a result of the application of cursed energy within 0.000001 seconds of a physical hit. The distortion causes cursed energy to flash black, increasing the destructive power of the impact to the power of 2.5. There is no sorcerer who can use it at will, but those who have unleashed Black Flash gain an advanced understanding of cursed energy far beyond those who have not.

Binding vows are considered by all jujutsu users to be one of the essential tenets of jujutsu sorcery. Binding Vows are essentially contracts created through cursed energy that an individual can make with one's self or another person. The act of abiding by the rules and restrictions agreed upon in these contracts can result in a greater power or the achievement of a goal, but breaking a binding vow has uncanny repercussions.

Self-imposed restrictions that are potentially harmful to the creator, such as willingly limiting the amount of cursed energy they can use for a period of time, can increase the amount of the user's cursed energy and of their cursed techniques.

As a product of negative emotions, cursed energy responds to the desires of its individual user. As a result, the user can increase the power of their cursed energy by stating a self-imposed "Cursed Restriction" that creates riskier conditions to use their abilities. For example, by divulging one's cursed technique, it creates more risk for them, making their cursed energy swell in response to its user's resolve.

In addition, creating rules for using one's cursed energy and abiding by those rules which allow their cursed technique to improve in strength. The penalty of breaking a binding vow with oneself is the loss of whatever was gained through the contract.

Heavenly Restrictions are described as bindings placed on a sorcerer's body when they are born. These bindings usually refer to limitations on the human body that the person receives improved capabilities in a different capacity in exchange. For example, a Heavenly Restriction can cause a sorcerer born with low cursed energy to be physically gifted. Vice versa can also occur, sorcerers with high cursed energy can be born with exceptionally weak bodies.

A curse user is an evil human sorcerer who uses jujutsu with malintent.[5] Naturally, they have existed as long as jujutsu sorcerers have, and were also prominent threats during the Heian Era alongside cursed spirits.[6]

With the increasing number of curses in the modern age, being a professional jujutsu sorcerer is a demanding job, and not all those born with the talent for jujutsu use it to exorcise curses.

Jujutsu Sorcerers (呪じゅ術じゅつ師し, Jujutsushi?) are individuals secretly trained and employed by the government in Japan to defend humanity from cursed spirits.

The race of humans capable of using jujutsu are colloquially known as Sorcerers (術じゅつ師し, Jutsushi?), and the jujutsu prefix is often used to signify their alignment to Jujutsu High. Jujutsu sorcerers who use their powers for criminal purposes, such as murder, are called Curse Users (呪じゅ詛そ師し, Jusoshi?) while humans who cannot use jujutsu are called Non-Sorcerers (非ひ術じゅつ師し, Hijutsushi?).

Clans of jujutsu sorcerers are considered to be highly regarded figures in the jujutsu community. The Big Three Sorcerer Families hold the most influence due to the powerful inherited cursed techniques that are passed down in their families for generations.

The Gojo Clan (五ご条じょう家け, Gojō Ke?) is a clan that who descends from Michizane Sugawara, one of Japan's renowned Big Three Vengeful Spirits.

The Kamo Clan (加か茂も家け, Kamo Ke?) is considered the core of the conservative faction at the heart of jujutsu headquarters and are close with the higher-ups of jujutsu headquarters. They are an orthodox group who value tradition and blood lineage above all else but they carry a stain they cannot wipe away on their family history.

The Zenin Clan (禪ぜん院いん家け, Zen'in Ke?) is a combat-oriented clan where those in control only value and respect power. The sorcerers of the Zenin clan place an emphasis on talent in sorcery above all else to the point where they will oppress even their own relatives. Their ideology is self-righteous and archaic but the fighting strength of the clan is very potent. Enough so that they constructed battle units in order to defend the jujutsu world.

The Inumaki Clan (狗いぬ巻まき家け, Inumaki Ke?) is not one of the Big Three Families, but they are a widely recognized sorcerer clan made up of cursed speech users marked with the Snake Eyes and Fangs sigil across their mouths. The Inumaki clan are considered outlaws of jujutsu society, and the clan has a standing policy to have jujutsu sorcerers born in the clan die out of the family tree.

The Fujiwara Clan (藤ふじ原わら家け, Fujiwara Ke?), also known as the Toh (藤とう氏し, Tōshi?), was a prominent sorcerer family during the golden age of jujutsu.

Different from cursed objects, cursed tools are weapons infused with cursed energy. Due to this, even non-sorcerers can use them to combat cursed spirits.[1] Conventional weapons such as katanas can become semi-cursed tools over time if the user constantly imbues it with their cursed energy. However, weapons new to the user that are reinforced with cursed energy are not considered cursed tools.

With the exception of cursed tools and cursed corpses, items that contain cursed energy are referred to as cursed objects. Cursed objects are ranked in the same way as cursed tools, based on the strength of the cursed energy they contain. Particularly dangerous cursed objects, such as Sukuna's fingers, are ranked special grade. Following the logic of controlling poison with poison, sealed special grade cursed objects can be used as amulets to ward off cursed spirits.[3][1]

Special grade cursed objects cannot be destroyed and their continued existence is guaranteed under the binding vow used to create them. This binding vow dictates that individuals who become cursed objects cease to live and cannot harm others.

Shikigami are age-old creations that gave Onmyodo its origins. These familiar monsters cannot be seen by non-sorcerers and are tamed to be subordinate to their master. They are summoned using mediums like talismans and other methods through a variety of sorcery techniques.[1] Shikigami conjuration is considered to be a type of cursed technique. Like barrier techniques, sorcerers who do not possess enough intrinsic talent for their own innate technique can summon simple shikigami.

Curses are created when cursed energy leaks from (non-sorcerer) humans as a result of their harboring of negative emotions. Cursed energy thus gathers in one spot, building up like sediment until a cursed spirit takes form. Populated locations such as schools and hospitals are hotspots for bearing curses because many negative emotions are associated with memories of those places.[3] This same concept applies humanity's collective fear and hatred. An image of fear shared by the masses can create a powerful curse even if the subject is not real, such as famous monsters or ghosts. It is the negative emotions that humanity directed at this image that causes it to manifest as a curse. Cursed spirits bodies are entirely made up of cursed energy. Their metaphysical existence makes it impossible for non-sorcerers to perceive or touch them. Living humans who have been cursed can only tell they have strange symptoms without realizing a cursed spirit behind it. Non-sorcerers whose lives are put in danger by a curse may gain the ability to see it in that life or death situation. Curses come in all kinds of grotesque shapes and sizes. They tend to linger around their point of origin and instinctively curse humans.[9] Other than that, a curse's habits vary a great deal from spirit to spirit. Curses are most stable while possessing an item,[10] and some curses can possess inanimate objects to become cursed corpses.[11]

Special grade cursed spirits with high intelligence tend to be bipedal creatures with shapes comparable to humans. They are capable of holding a normal conversation and working together as an organized group.

With bodies composed of cursed energy, cursed spirits cannot be harmed by conventional means. They can be hit by a physical attack but it will deal no damage regardless of how powerful it is. The general rule of jujutsu is that a curse must be exorcised using another curse. This mean curses can only be exorcised using cursed energy.[18] A fatal attack using cursed energy will cause the cursed spirit to disappear completely. This does not apply to curses who have been incarnated using a flesh and blood human vessel, such as the Cursed Womb: Death Paintings

Vengeful Cursed Spirit (過か呪じゅ怨霊おんりょう, Ka Ju-Onryō?): A cursed spirit created when humans become a curse after death. Those whose deaths are cursed have the possibility of having their spirit corrupted and transformed into a vengeful spirit. Sorcerers have an increased chance of turning into a curse after death, but this can be prevented by killing them with jujutsu.

Imaginary Vengeful Cursed Spirit (仮想かそう呪じゅ怨霊おんりょう, Kasō Ju-Onryō?): A cursed spirit manifested from the cumulative fear of the masses. When many people share an image of fear, such as famous yokai or ghost stories like the Nine Tailed Fox, an Imaginary Vengeful Spirit can form.

Disease Cursed Spirit (疾しっ病ぺい呪じゅ霊れい, Shippei Jurei?): Plague and general sickness are concepts constantly cursed by humanity, resulting in powerful disease curses.[28] These type of cursed spirits can use cursed techniques to infect humans with their respective diseases to curse and kill them.

Tokyo Jujutsu High serves not only as a training ground for the next generation of sorcerers but a headquarters for all alumni who have graduated on to be full-fledged jujutsu sorcerers as well. All sorcerers play a role in mentoring jujutsu students, whether in a teacher's role or accompanying them on missions. Weaker sorcerers are assigned the roles of windows, someone who can see curses but is not considered a full-fledged sorcerer or managers to contribute as well.

The jujutsu schools are considered the place for the community and provide mediation, general support, education, and shelter. Tokyo Jujutsu High is a broad campus of several buildings build in a traditional Japanese architectural style, operating under the guise of a Buddhist temple. The school building is well hidden on Tokyo's outskirts, far and high in the mountains. Naturally, there are a lot of trees around the property to further obscure the location.[2] Some elements other than the buildings reflect the Buddhist theme. There are several statues of deities, shrines, and torii gates around the campus.

There are several entrances into the school. The entire property is hidden by a protective barrier maintained by Master Tengen, who lives beneath the school in the Tombs of the Star.[3] The school grounds include training grounds, courtyards, dormitories, and classrooms, among a variety of other amenities.

Upon enrolling in Jujutsu High, transfer students are taught about the school's rules and security measures. The school is protected by Master Tengen's barrier, which hides its location from the outside world. Those who already know the location can easily find it. One entrance is in the foothills of Mount Mushiro up a long set of stairs marked with a series of torii gates.[9]

All jujutsu sorcerers must abide by jujutsu regulations. There are a total of nine articles, some of which list out punishments that can call for someone's immediate execution even if they become a potential vessel to a curse as powerful as Sukuna.[10] Article 9 of the jujutsu regulations punishes jujutsu sorcerers turned curse users with execution as well.

The school's curriculum is taught over four years.[12] The concept is to train young sorcerers to control their curses and use them to exorcise other curses. All classes appear to be taught by active professional jujutsu sorcerers. The teachers regulate their students' training regiments and education as they see fit. Sorcerers are rare, so classes are often small and focused on building up the individual students into competent sorcerers as quickly as possible.

Students are given a formal education with standard school classes such as homeroom and sorcerer training through practical jujutsu classes.[13] They move from their original homes to live on campus in the dormitories. The majority of training, classes, and school events are all conducted on campus grounds.

The majority of training, classes, and school events are all conducted on campus grounds.

Practical training assignments and field tests often consist of investigating paranormal locations and exorcising weaker curses.[14][15] Jujutsu High students are ranked on the same scale as professional jujutsu sorcerers, which their student ID reflects.[16] Same as jujutsu sorcerers, students are given missions according to their ranking.[17] When leaving school grounds to exorcise curses as a part of their training to gain experience, students are often supervised by a sorcerer or manager.

The male school uniform consists of asymmetrical blue jackets with high collars and two pins on the left side engraved with the school logo. The male uniform is completed with a pair of matching blue slacks. The standard female uniform has the same top with a skirt for a bottom.

The uniforms are highly customizable, and many of the students have their own variations of the uniform. The top half of Nobara's uniform is similar to a traditional gakuran uniform, with buttons from top to bottom down the middle. Yuta's uniform is all white, and Yuji's uniform is customized with a hood as one of many possible examples.

Jujutsu High has summer and winter uniforms like most Japanese schools. There usually isn't much difference between them other than breathability because the uniforms must remain practical for combat. If a student desires a custom uniform, they can put in a request with the school.

Jujutsu High assigns their sorcerer's grades to assess their skill level ascending from Grade 4 to Grade 1. Students generally start at Grade 4 upon joining the school, but this depends on experience.[1]

Cursed spirits are ranked on a similar scale but not exact. The higher-ups can be particular when it comes to ranking cursed spirits. The distinct difference between a grade 2 and a semi-grade 1 curse is whether or not it is capable of using cursed techniques.[2] Jujutsu sorcerers are expected to take on missions involving curses of the same level. A Grade 2 sorcerer should be able to defeat a Grade 2 curse because their skill level is closer to the strength of a Grade 1 curse.[3]

Cursed tools are also categorized from grades 1 to 4 based on power and potency. The higher the grade, the greater advantage they provide in battle.[4] All Special Grade cursed tools except for Playful Cloud are imbued with a cursed technique.

Following rankings are used to classify jujutsu sorcerers, cursed spirits, cursed tools and cursed objects in general:

Grade 4 (四よん級きゅう, Yonkyū?) Grade 3 (三さん級きゅう, Sankyū?) Semi-Grade 2 (準じゅん二に級きゅう, Jun Nikyū?) Grade 2 (二に級きゅう, Nikyū?) Semi-Grade 1 (準じゅん一いっ級きゅう, Jun Ikkyū?) Grade 1 (一いっ級きゅう, Ikkyū?) Special Grade 1 (特とく別べつ一いっ級きゅう, Tokubetsu Ikkyū?) Special Grade (特とっ級きゅう, Tokkyū?)

A cursed technique is activated through the act of pouring cursed energy into it, utilizing one of two processes; Lapse or Reversal.[1] If cursed energy is comparable to electricity, cursed techniques are the appliances that use that power to function.[3] Cursed energy is processed through a procedure akin to a mathematic formula within the user to activate a cursed technique.

Lapse (順転, Junten?, lit. "Forward Rotation") refers to the basic, default, or neutral state of activation for a cursed technique. To activate a cursed technique through lapse, the caster circulates their cursed energy in a forward direction to channel it into their ability.

Reversal (反転, Hanten?, lit. "Reverse Rotation") produces positive energy by multiplying negative energy with negative energy. Negative energy isn't suitable for recovering but positive energy can heal physical injuries. However, it requires highly sophisticated manipulation of cursed energy to achieve, so the ability to do so is rare.

Cursed techniques often require hand signs (掌しゅぅ印いん, Shōin?), empowered words (呪じゅ詞し, Jushi?), or other gestures to activate. A sorcerer's skill is determined by the degree to which they can minimize and omit these components to make their abilities more efficient. Conversely, the purposeful inclusion of incantations or rituals can elevate a cursed technique's effectiveness.

Innate Techniques (生しょう得とく術じゅつ式しき, Shōtoku Jutsushiki?) are unique abilities congenitally engraved into the user's body, specifically in the right prefrontal cortex of the brain.[6] Most jujutsu sorcerers are born with an innate technique that manifests around the age of five or six, which continually carves its formula into the user over time.

Innate techniques are proprietary and comprise eighty percent of a sorcerer's intrinsic skillset, making them nearly impossible to mimic, not unlike a copyrighted computer program.[7] When an individual refers to their own personal cursed technique, they're generally talking about their innate technique.[8][2]

In almost all cases, an individual possesses only a single innate technique. In especially rare cases, someone may possess more than one.

Inherited Techniques (相そう伝でん術じゅつ式しき, Sōden Jutsushiki?) are innate techniques passed down to sorcerers in the same bloodline.

Extension Techniques (拡かく張ちょぅ術じゅつ式しき, Kakuchō Jutsushiki?) are original abilities derived from innate techniques. Innate techniques cannot be changed or altered, but they can be trained and expanded on through creativity to maximize their applications into extension techniques.

Maximum Output (出力しゅつりょく最大さいだい, Shutsuryoku Saidai?): Extension techniques with the highest possible cursed energy output channeled into them. Not to be confused with Maximum Techniques, these moves are also titled Stack

Maximum Techniques (極ごくノの番ばん, Gokunoban?): Extension techniques that realize the greatest potential of their derived innate technique.

Barrier Techniques (結けっ界かい術じゅつ, Kekkai Jutsu?) are cursed techniques that employ barrier zones to trap entities within a space or to prevent them from entering one.

Anti-Domain Techniques (対たい領りょう域いきの術すべ, Tairyōiki no Sube?) are countermeasures designed to withstand the can't-miss attack of opposing domain expansions. They are mainly designed for those who cannot expand their own domain for any reason.

Secret Arts (秘伝 , Hiden?) are unique anti-domain techniques passed down in the Big Three Sorcerer Families. Having existed for millennia, the Big Three Families have accumulated many secret skills for dealing with cursed spirits and curse users.

Barrier Techniques (結けっ界かい術じゅつ, Kekkai Jutsu?) are cursed techniques that employ barrier zones to trap entities within a space or to prevent them from entering one.

Shikigami Jutsu (式しき神がみ術じゅつ, Shikigami Jutsu?)[141] conjures shikigami to aid the user using a variety of methods. Simple shikigami can be summoned by any capable sorcerer.

Domain Expansion is the most supreme technique of any jujutsu user. It is achieved by expanding one's innate domain with cursed energy while using a barrier to construct it inside a separate space. The caster then imbues their cursed technique within the barrier to complete the expansion, allowing them to deploy their ability all throughout the domain.[2]

A specific hand sign or signal unique to the user is required to expand someone's respective domain.[3][4] From the outside, a domain's barrier is normally completely closed, making it appear as a floating black sphere that can even be moved slightly if needed.

Domains that are expanded to be lethal are constructed within a barrier imbued with the user's cursed technique. The caster's abilities are amplified and any cursed techniques deployed within the domain are guaranteed to hit their target. This sure-hit factor is derived from the barrier's embedded technique, which is what makes this type of domain considered lethal.

Innate domains that are expanded using only cursed energy without an embedded cursed technique are incomplete even if they include a barrier.[11][12] In most cases, the same applies to domains without a fully enclosed barrier.

A high-risk, high-reward maneuver, Domain Expansion provides a great advantage at the cost of an immense amount of cursed energy. Satoru Gojo is considered to be one of the only individuals that can use domain expansion multiple times in one day.[15] Kinji Hakari is only capable of casting it repeatedly after hitting his domain's jackpot to replenish cursed energy and stabilize his cursed technique.[16]

Even if the barrier or the environment aren't fully formed, casting domain expansion will cause the user's innate technique to become unstable for a short time afterward. Attempting to use cursed techniques during this period will cause them to burn out and fail to activate.

The best countermeasure against an opposing domain is to expand one's own domain. This will engage both combatants into a clash of domains where the more refined domain will conquer.[22][23] The time it takes for one domain to dominate in a clash varies on that difference in refinement. E.g. Satoru Gojo's superior domain immediately dominated Jogo's while Dagon's domain took a much more significant amount of time to subdue Megumi's. In the case of overlapping domains, sure-hit effects cancel each other out.[24] When two domains are completely even and the users fight with their domains open, the moment one combatant takes heavy damage or their domain collapses, the other's can't-miss attack will immediately strike.[25] A clash of three domains is even more complicated than two and too many conflicting factors can cause the barriers to shatter before the domains are completely formed.[26]

Domain clashes don't always have to result in one domain conquering the other. Using Domain Expansion against a more refined domain can create a hole in the barrier for them to escape from as well.

Talismans (呪じゅ符ふ, Jufu?) are paper tags that can be imbued with cursed energy and cursed techniques. They are high-utility items in sorcery that are used by sorcerers for various purposes. Even non-sorcerers can make use of them. Talismans can serve as an intermediary for shikigami, sealing material for cursed objects, or aid in constructing specialized barriers, among other uses.

Wrapping cursed objects in talismans is an old-fashioned method of sealing that degrades over time.

A Cursed Womb (呪じゅ胎たい, Jutai?) is the uterus-like evolutionary stage of an immature cursed spirit. They are capable of producing powerful fully fledged curses after the metamorphosis is complete.

Cursed wombs that grow and change shape are expected to produce special grade cursed spirits.

A Cursed Womb: Death Painting (呪じゅ胎たい九く相そう図ず, Jutai Kusōzu?)[5] is a type of cursed womb that is half-human, half cursed spirit. It is unclear how they are formed precisely.
