NARUTO -ナルト- (Naruto) influenced 呪術廻戦 (Jujutsu Kaisen)

Gege Akutami has named the big Jump series of the 2000s as what he grew up on, Naruto among them, and Jujutsu Kaisen is built out of their furniture: a school that trains and ranks its students, a cursed power inside the protagonist that everyone else is afraid of, a sealed monster with its own personality, and a teacher who is both the strongest character and an unserious one. Filed MEDIUM: the debt is to a house style Naruto did more than any other single work to fix, rather than to a borrowed plot.
