This anime series is an adaptation of Gege Akutami’s Jujutsu Kaisen manga, which follows the story of a high school student Yuji Itadori, whose life takes a supernatural turn when he swallows a rotten spiritual being in the appearance of a severed finger called a Curse. There are four different editions in the keyboard collection, which are two [Basecamp 65](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/game-franchisethemed-keyboard) models and two [Summit 65](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/higround-2). The Basecamp 65 model is built with an aluminum frame and silicone-dampening foam. As for the Summit 65 model, it has a full CNC aluminum case with a gasket-mounted design and graphic switches. Additionally, there are two different art designs for the keyboard collection. The first features the Yuji Itadori and the evil curse that is a host of his body, Ryoumen Sukuna. The second features the majority of the Jujustu Sukuna characters facing off each other on a white background with black circle designs in the middle. The keyboard collection will be available on February 24.
