Nue’s Exorcist has the potential to become a big hit, which is why studios will be competing for rights to produce the anime. If Nue’s Exorcist gains the same level of fame as Jujutsu Kaisen, then Shueisha will have one less thing to worry about.
Nue’s Exorcistshares a few similarities with Jujutsu Kaisen. For starters, both have supernatural enemies. Nue’s Exorcist has spirits while Jujutsu Kaisen has curses. These entities cannot be seen by regular people, which is another thing that the two series share.

Nue’s Exorcist began serialization in the Weekly Shonen Jump in May 2023.
