The "Jujutsu Kaisen" anime adaptation was viral in the Fall 2020 season. It featured an interesting story and gorgeous animation, and many fans were captivated by it.

Some people find anime more engaging and prefer to wait for the next season to discover where the story will go. But, often, the anime adaptation had to trim some parts of the manga, and so many anime-only fans of the show might miss out on some crucial details of the whole story.

1. Yuji's origins
At first, Yuji's family and past are largely hidden from him. His father is finally revealed in chapter 143 of the manga, and it highlights some of the issues about Yuji's place in the jujutsu world.

2. The Shibuya incident
The Shibuya incident is one of the most influential arcs in the manga. It involves a massive battle that spans over 50 chapters. It is filled with various perspectives and characters that are either killed or severely scarred for life.

3. Gojo's disappearance
Gojo is the most powerful sorcerer in the manga. In the manga, his enemies know that he is physically unstoppable, and they trap him instead of trying to beat him. The capture of Gojo brings the stakes up for Yuji and his friends. Without Gojo, their fights are harder and more costly.

4. Geto Suguru's mystery
Geto is a villain in the first season of the manga. He helped the Cursed Spirits in planning to trap Gojo Satoru. When he used to be a student, Geto turned to the dark side. An evil sorcerer now possesses his body, which gives him an even more sinister edge.

5. Megumi's family history
Most anime fans didn't know about Megumi's family and past. The anime only revealed that his stepsister was cursed and fell into a coma. With no parents, Gojo took Megumi in.

The manga introduces Toji Fushiguro, who appears to be a distant father. The story also reveals that he is connected to the Zenin family, a clan of powerful sorcerers.

6. The prequel
Jujutsu Kaisen is originally a four-part series that started before the main character, Itadori Yuji, showed up. One of the main focuses of the series is on Yutako Okkotsu's story and his struggles with the Cursed Spirits. The events of the prequel are also incorporated in the larger story arc.

7. Yutako Okkotsu
Many fans who only watched Jujutsu Kaisen might be unaware of the character of Yuta. He was the main character of the prequel, but he was also a key character in the manga.

Although he initially appears to be an enemy, Yuta eventually becomes a favorite character among fans for his likable character and turns out to be an ally.
