This series has become one of the most popular anime in recent years, and there are several reasons to explain that. One of the biggest reasons is the high-quality animation that Studio MAPPA provided for the series, further elevating Gege Akutami's story to the point that it has become one of the most visually pleasing anime in modern times.

However, Akutami himself crafted a story that has appealed to a lot of audiences, focusing on Yuji Itadori as he becomes a Jujutsu sorcerer and tries to protect people from entities born from negative emotions named Curses. Jujutsu Kaisen has a lot of mysteries, great fighting sequences, and characters that have become quite iconic throughout the years, such as Satoru Gojo, who has become a bit of an icon in recent years across the medium and even outside of it.
