This act sets off a series of unexpected events and magically changes both Mordecai and the people closest to him. For Mordecai, this moment happens when his son, Marvin, replaces his ancient phone with a brand-new iPhone. Sometimes, something small and unexpected can change your whole world. But this is a story about the things he cannot fix: Getting older, the Alzheimer’s diagnosis of his wife Fela (Carol Kane), and his relationship with his son Marvin (Sean Astin).
It’s why he worked his entire life as a plumber and a painter. It’s why his phone is 20 years old and held together with duct tape and tinfoil. Mordecai (Judd Hirsch) likes to fix things. When confronted with an unfamiliar object, an iPhone, will Mordecai be able to fit into a world that has changed so much around him? However, as his training progresses, Yuuta comes to learn that the dangers of the Jujutsu world go far beyond that of wicked spirits.Ī Holocaust survivor, born and raised in a different time, must face the realities of modern world. Alongside his new classmates Maki Zenin, a Jujutsu weapons expert Toge Inumaki, a spellcaster who uses his words as weapons and Panda, a seemingly walking and talking panda bear, Yuuta begins to find his place in the world and, for once, to feel comfortable with his abilities. Now a first-year at this school, Yuuta starts to learn Jujutsu arts and combat malignant beings. Yet his apprehender, the master sorcerer Satoru Gojou, has different plans for him: he will join Jujutsu High School and learn to control Rika in order to help people. As a result, when apprehended by "Jujutsu" sorcerers-the secret guardians of the world, trained to combat forces like Rika-Yuuta wishes to be completely isolated so that no one else can get hurt. Unable to control Rika's violent behavior, Yuuta is helpless to stop the bloodshed that follows from her brutal vengeance. Instead, she manifests as a monstrous and powerful entity who fiercely protects him.
But her spirit does not appear as the sweet girl Yuuta once knew. Ever since his childhood friend Rika died in a traffic accident, her ghost has stuck with him.
