10 best anime for Jujutsu Kaisen fans to watch next

Jujutsu Kaisen took the world by storm when MAPPA aired its first season in 2020, and the momentum has continued into the ongoing third season. Gege Akutami’s dark fantasy blends battle shōnen thrills with a premise where negative human emotions become Cursed Energy, giving rise to malevolent Curses.

The series centers on Yuji Itadori as the vessel for the King of Curses while examining a world that elevates the strongest sorcerers and discards the weaker ones. No two battle shōnen share the same tone or premise — Naruto and Bleach, for example, excel in intricate combat and dense world-building but feel very different.

Obvious comparisons for Jujutsu Kaisen include Hunter x Hunter and Demon Slayer, alongside less obvious picks like Dororo and The God of High School. Taking that range into account, the article rounds up 10 anime worth checking out if you like Jujutsu Kaisen.
