Gojo comes under fire when a Cursed Spirit suddenly marks him for assassination. However, the battle that ensues proves to the volcanic curse Jogo that Satoru Gojo's abilities exist on a higher plane than his own. Seeing this as an opportunity, Gojo brings Yuji to the battlefield to teach him about Jujutsu battles and Domain Expansion.

Yuji joins Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerer Kento Nanami on a mission to investigate the uncanny deaths of three students at a movie theater. Meanwhile, the witness, a student named Junpei Yoshino, and the culprit, Mahito, decide to become friends and discuss the nature of curses.
