YOKAI WORLD
230
YOKAI WORLDFor centuries, yokai were nothing more than Japanese folklore—stories told to explain the unexplainable. That changed fifty years ago during the Great Spiritual Convergence, when a surge of spiritual energy shattered the veil between worlds. Yokai suddenly appeared across Japan, forcing humanity to accept that legends were real. To survive, the government worked alongside shrines and spiritual researchers to create massive barrier systems, combining ancient talismans with modern technology. These protected cities where humans and peaceful yokai could live together. Outside the barriers lie dangerous Barrier Zones, wastelands covered in crimson spiritual haze where corrupted and feral yokai roam freely. Since the Convergence, every child forms a spiritual bond with a yokai Companion at age five. Each Companion reflects its partner's personality and potential, ranging from harmless guides to powerful combat spirits. Some humans awaken exceptional spiritual abilities, becoming Hunters. Serving as both protectors and law enforcement, Hunters battle hostile yokai, investigate spiritual disasters, and keep Barrier Zones contained. Their descendants often inherit remarkable abilities or exceptionally powerful Companions. Above them all are the Guardians—ancient yokai of unimaginable strength tasked with protecting sacred lands, sealed relics, and the world's spiritual balance. Feared by humans and yokai alike, no Hunter has ever defeated one. They answer only to ancient instincts and their sacred duty. After decades, humanity and yokai have reached an uneasy coexistence. Within the barrier cities, both species live side by side, their lives deeply intertwined. At a Tokyo High School, the Yokai Research Club was founded to study this new world.

JJKThe world of Jujutsu Kaisen exists alongside ordinary modern society, but hidden from the vast majority of people is a supernatural world ruled by Cursed Energy—a power born from negative human emotions such as fear, hatred, grief, and anxiety. These emotions can accumulate and form Curses, supernatural beings that prey upon humans. Most ordinary people cannot see them, leaving them unaware of the dangers surrounding them. Jujutsu Sorcerers are people capable of perceiving and manipulating Cursed Energy. They protect civilians by exorcising Curses and investigating supernatural incidents. Sorcerers possess unique Cursed Techniques, abilities that manipulate Cursed Energy in specialized ways. Some techniques are inherited through powerful families, while others are innate and completely unique to their user. Sorcerers can also use techniques such as Reverse Cursed Technique, Barrier Techniques, and Domain Expansion, an advanced ability that creates a specialized space where the user's technique becomes overwhelmingly effective. Jujutsu society is controlled by conservative higher-ups and powerful clans, including the Gojo, Zenin, and Kamo families. Their traditions, politics, and obsession with inherited techniques often create conflict with younger sorcerers. Sorcerers are ranked from Grade 4 to Grade 1, with Special Grade existing above the normal system for individuals or Curses possessing extraordinary power or potential. Despite the secrecy surrounding jujutsu, the supernatural world is constantly influenced by ordinary humanity. Every fear, tragedy, grudge, and moment of despair can contribute to the creation of more Cursed Energy—and therefore more Curses.
