Summary
Why doesn’t jujutsu exist outside Japan? Could it? Should it?
And what happens when fanfic gives cursed energy a passport?This meta essay explores the absence of global jujutsu systems in Jujutsu Kaisen, unpacking cursed energy theory, cultural diffusion, and historical trauma as worldbuilding tools. It’s part of the Cursed Frameworks: Essays on Power and Worldbuilding in Jujutsu Kaisen collection—a chaotic love letter to trauma logic and the fanwriters who worldbuild harder than canon.
Read with curiosity, grace, and caffeine.

Summary
So, Yuu got isekai’d—congrats! Unfortunately, it wasn’t Truck-kun, it was several horses. Also, she doesn't speak the language, and to add more salt to the wound, she's a girl in an all-boys school. Good luck out there, champ!

Summary
“You have good eyes, right?” Yuu continues to say, ignoring Vil and digging their grave deeper.
“Way too good in my opinion,” Leona grumbles, and Rook smiles at the compliment.
“Indeed, I do! As a hunter, I could not accomplish what I do without them!” Rook declares proudly, a hand over his heart. “Do you have an inquiry about my eyes?”
Fingers latch around his wrist, and Rook thinks, Oh my.
Even in this world, Yuu cannot escape Disney.
Even with a hunter by Yuu's side, they are still prey.
In this world of Twisted Wonderland, everything was created in the wake of the Great Seven villains, there is another who is even more omnipresent and ingrained into the earth.

Summary
In which the moon is green, the world is Twisted Wonderland, and you will become the first person to land on the moon if it means you can blow it up.
(Or: isekai is apparently real and very, very lonely. You manage.)
