Jujutsu Kaisen Power System Explained: Every Rule

The Jujutsu Kaisen power system looks like pure chaos the first time you watch the show. Sorcerers throw out strange techniques, domains swallow whole city blocks, and the story rarely stops to hand you the rulebook. In fact, the system is one of the most consistent in modern anime. Once you see the logic, every fight reads differently.

Everything starts with cursed energy. It is the fuel born from negative emotion, and it powers everything from a basic strike to Gojo’s Infinity. From there, the layers stack up one by one. Cursed techniques shape that energy into something personal. Reverse cursed technique flips it into healing. A Black Flash is the rare moment when a sorcerer connects with their power at the deepest level. Meanwhile, binding vows and heavenly restrictions show the other side of the deal, where giving something up buys real strength.

At the top of it all sits domain expansion. It is the pinnacle of jujutsu and the clearest test of who truly understands their own technique. Sukuna’s Malevolent Shrine and Gojo’s Unlimited Void are not just spectacle. They are the Jujutsu Kaisen power system working exactly as designed, and the video above walks through every rule in order, from cursed energy basics to the most advanced applications.

For example, once you know how binding vows work, Kenjaku’s schemes in the Culling Game suddenly make far more sense. The same goes for Gojo himself. If you think you already know how his abilities work, try our Satoru Gojo quiz after watching. You can also dig into the official Jujutsu Kaisen site for source material context.

In short, this is the part most fans skip, and it is exactly why the best fights hit harder once you understand the Jujutsu Kaisen power system. Watch the breakdown, then rewatch your favorite battle. It will not look the same.
