What Does Jujutsu Kaisen Mean? 

In the title, the word Jujutsu translates to “Sorcery.” Whereas the meaning of Kaisen is “endless combat.” If Studio MAPPA used titles such as “Sorcery Endless Combat” or “Sorcery Fight,” then it wouldn’t look as interesting as its original Japanese title. Also, the word Kaisen is shorter than its translation. As a result, the makers decided not to translate its title. The overall meaning of Jujutsu Kaisen can also be defined as the manipulation of opponents’ force against themselves in a sorcery fight.

The sorcery in Jujutsu Kaisen means the manipulation and modification of the cursed energy, and it is the foundation of the world of Jujutsu Kaisen. In Japan, there is another term, “Jjujutshiki,” which translates to cursed energy. So, it is likely that Gege Akutami learned everything before using “Jujutsu Kaisen” as the title. As the concept of this show is also based on the cursed energy.

The term Jujutsu also refers to a martial arts system in Japan. It is a close-range combat technique that is effective in both offense or defense. It was developed for the combat of the feudal lord in Japan. There, one fights with armed or armored opponents with bare hands or short weapons. This technique includes efficient methods in order to neutralize the enemy. Moreover, it includes moves like joint locks, throws, and pins.

Jujutsu is a technique that is based on the principle of using one’s energy against themselves in combat. Since this supernatural dark fantasy also follows the same concept, Gege Akutami decided to name it Jujutsu Kaisen.
