JUJUTSU KAISEN (2020)
A boy fights... for "the right death."
Yuji Itadori is a boy with tremendous physical strength, though he lives a completely ordinary high school life. One day, to save a classmate who has been attacked by curses, he eats the finger of Ryomen Sukuna, taking the curse into his own soul. From then on, he shares one body with Ryomen Sukuna. Guided by the most powerful of sorcerers, Satoru Gojo, Itadori is admitted to Tokyo Jujutsu High School, an organization that fights the curses... and thus begins the heroic tale of a boy who became a curse to exorcise a curse, a life from which he could never turn back.

What kind of watch this is
Jujutsu Kaisen is an anime action series where a high schooler swallows a cursed finger to save a classmate. He now shares his body with Sukuna, while training at a school for sorcerers. The show runs 24 minutes per episode. With 59 episodes, the first season totals roughly 24 hours of runtime. That is a specific kind of commitment. It is for people who do not mind their bodies being invaded by ancient evil while they eat their lunch.
How it did with audiences
The film skipped a traditional box office run, so the financial ledger remains blank. That silence leaves the cultural impact to speak for itself. On TMDB, users rate it 8.6 out of 10. No budget to balance against, no revenue to count. Just a high score.
