Summary
Resurrect the tense conflict between the Jujutsu Sorcerers and the cursed spirits in this collection of original stories。
Sorcery and demon curses abound in this collection of stories spun from the world of Jujutsu Kaisen。
Cursed spirits have struck the opening blow at Satozakura High School in an unfolding conflict against the Jujutsu Sorcerers。 But while this epic and unyielding battle intensifies， the heroes of Jujutsu Kaisen have other mysteries to solve…such as why Yuji and Megumi see Gojo at a maid cafe， whether Nanami can uncover the secret behind a website that claims to sell dolls that resurrect the dead， and what happens when a blind old man is able to see the scheming Mahito。

Ich liebe Jujutsu Kaisen， dieser Light Novel konnte mich aber nicht völlig überzeugen。 Es gibt fünf Kurzgeschichten mit unterschiedlichen Charakteren。 Von den fünf Geschichten mochte ich zwei， die anderen konnten mich nicht überzeugen。Der Schreibstil ist ausserdem sehr simpel und einfach gehalten， vor allem bei der ersten Geschichte。 Kann natürlich an der Übersetzung liegen。 Oder Light Novels sind generell so geschrieben， da habe ich leider zu wenige gelesen um es zu beurteilen。

I absolutely adored this light novel。 The missing scenes were fantastic， and the characters were every bit as loveable as they are in the manga/anime。 The look into regular characters， such as Megumi Fushiguro， Nanami Kento， Mahito， and Yuji Itadori， and their lives outside of the regular plot of the series was lovely。 I would recommend for any fans of Jujutsu Kaisen who can't wait for season two， or who need a break from the current turmoil of the manga。 I absolutely adored this light novel。 The missing scenes were fantastic， and the characters were every bit as loveable as they are in the manga/anime。 The look into regular characters， such as Megumi Fushiguro， Nanami Kento， Mahito， and Yuji Itadori， and their lives outside of the regular plot of the series was lovely。 I would recommend for any fans of Jujutsu Kaisen who can't wait for season two， or who need a break from the current turmoil of the manga。 。。。more

Fans of Jujutsu Kaisen can't get enough of the manga and anime so to fill the gaps why not suggest a collection of stories featuring the Itadori， Gojo and more。 Great for middle grade readers and young adults these are new stories that fill in the gaps of character relationships and what happens between cases for the sorcerers。 Fans won't want to miss reading Summer of Ashes， Autumn of Dust。 Fans of Jujutsu Kaisen can't get enough of the manga and anime so to fill the gaps why not suggest a collection of stories featuring the Itadori， Gojo and more。 Great for middle grade readers and young adults these are new stories that fill in the gaps of character relationships and what happens between cases for the sorcerers。 Fans won't want to miss reading Summer of Ashes， Autumn of Dust。 。。。more

Die Geschichten sind ganz ok， aber wie es geschrieben ist ruiniert irgendwie alles。。 Es fühlt sich an， als wäre es für 5 Jährige geschrieben， in ganz einfacher Sprache， dabei wird es als 16+ vermarket。 Auch scheinen die Charaktere zum großen Teil nicht wie sie selbst; sehr schade！

Damn I’m a bit bummed that I didn’t like it。 I think it would have been better as an audiobook and sadly I found some grammatical mistakes in my edition 🥲

This light novel has select short stories， some of which I've listened to online。 I think any fan of Jujutsu Kaisen who intends to buy this light novel should go in understanding that this book is， in my opinion， written for the traditional shonen audience; a very young audience。The benefit of the audio version was you had the Japanese voice actors give characterizations to dialogue that felt shallow within the light novel。 Another benefit was there was no need for exposition because I believe i This light novel has select short stories， some of which I've listened to online。 I think any fan of Jujutsu Kaisen who intends to buy this light novel should go in understanding that this book is， in my opinion， written for the traditional shonen audience; a very young audience。The benefit of the audio version was you had the Japanese voice actors give characterizations to dialogue that felt shallow within the light novel。 Another benefit was there was no need for exposition because I believe it's the exposition that brings down the novel。 The exposition reads like a guidebook narration which halts the plot unnecessarily。 I found several spelling errors within the version I read。I was really disappointed with this but I had to keep in mind that I might not be the target audience of this book。 Even though I do believe that the target audience might also be disappointed。 。。。more

You really get interesting story insides with this one！ Feels like a behind the scenes of the manga。 I quite liked it

The short stories herein take place in the early chapters of the series， far before the Shibuya Incident。 Which let me tell you， I was very thankful for， as I wanted some more of the （kinda） lighthearted Jujutsu Kaisen world， before diving back into the PAIN that is the manga right now lolThe translation was a bit clunky and the words 'boob tube" where actually used but overall I enjoyed these short stories。 An ARC was provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review。 The short stories herein take place in the early chapters of the series， far before the Shibuya Incident。 Which let me tell you， I was very thankful for， as I wanted some more of the （kinda） lighthearted Jujutsu Kaisen world， before diving back into the PAIN that is the manga right now lolThe translation was a bit clunky and the words 'boob tube" where actually used but overall I enjoyed these short stories。 An ARC was provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Dos estrellas por algunos conceptos que me parecieron interesantes， pero la ejecución me aburrió un montón。 Me decidí a terminarlo a ver si mejoraba un poco y a ratos （muy espaciados） tiene escenas o diálogos interesantes desde el punto de vista de la dinámica de personajes， pero nada que no me haga pensar que el dinero invertido fue más pérdida que provecho。Y como en todo producto asociado a JJK （o a varios shonen， general）， los personajes femeninos son una nota a pie de página o simplemente ir Dos estrellas por algunos conceptos que me parecieron interesantes， pero la ejecución me aburrió un montón。 Me decidí a terminarlo a ver si mejoraba un poco y a ratos （muy espaciados） tiene escenas o diálogos interesantes desde el punto de vista de la dinámica de personajes， pero nada que no me haga pensar que el dinero invertido fue más pérdida que provecho。Y como en todo producto asociado a JJK （o a varios shonen， general）， los personajes femeninos son una nota a pie de página o simplemente irrelevantes。 Nada nuevo bajo el sol， pero bueno。。。 。。。more

Que divertido leer historias que dan más contexto de las cosas que pasan en la historia principal。 Aunque no se si la traducción hace que parezca casi casi un fanfic。 Pero me gustó。

This is the first light novel of Jujutsu Kaisen。 The English title of this one （according to wiki） is "Soaring Summer and Returning Autumn"。 The original title （Japanese） is "逝く夏と還る秋 [Iku Natsu to Kaeru Aki]"。Like the light novels of Demon Slayer Kimetsu no Yaiba I read last year， this Jujutsu Kaisen light novels gives the exact same vibe。 I feel like reading fanfiction but canon， and it makes me so happy since I'm currently （and forever will be） in love with this series。 The stories here are fa This is the first light novel of Jujutsu Kaisen。 The English title of this one （according to wiki） is "Soaring Summer and Returning Autumn"。 The original title （Japanese） is "逝く夏と還る秋 [Iku Natsu to Kaeru Aki]"。Like the light novels of Demon Slayer Kimetsu no Yaiba I read last year， this Jujutsu Kaisen light novels gives the exact same vibe。 I feel like reading fanfiction but canon， and it makes me so happy since I'm currently （and forever will be） in love with this series。 The stories here are faithful to the events in the manga--but the stories in this light novel took place in early chapters （to be exact， before Yuuji came back from death） which is good and lighthearted because who can bear the pain of reading light novels that take place during or after Shibuya Incident？ These stories dig much deeper in characterization， with its narration and description。 I think some of the stories here became source materials for JJK drama CD because I've ever heard the second story as a drama CD with Nakamura-san and Tsudaken-san reprised their roles as Gojo and Nanami。 There are five stories in this light novel:1。 Wandering around during a Day Off - Yuuji and Megumi strolled around while waiting for Nobara finished shopping。 The boys played game in arcade then happened to see Gojo。 They followed him to here and there until they arrived to an angelic maid cafe and were forced to spend time there。 This story is so light and fun and perfect for those who love Fushiguro Megumi。2。 Resurrection Puppet - Gojo accompanied Nanami in a mission to exorcise a "puppet" who claimed to be able to resurrect the deads。 I really love this story--Gojo is as annoying-but-funny as usual and getting on Nanami's nerves （but they are good friends， after all）。 The dialogues here are so witty--I'm very glad this story became an audio drama so I don't have to only imagine how those dialogues be portrayed by Nakamura-san and Tsudaken-san。 :）（You can find the audio drama on YouTube; there's someone who kindly translated it。）3。 Fables from the Dark - Mahito's story when he encountered a "weird" human being who had given up everything in life。 I didn't really like Mahito （view spoiler）[he killed Nanami， for God's sake！！ （hide spoiler）] but as a character， he's a great one （plus， Shimazaki-san voiced him！）。 I think this story can make us understand Mahito a bit better。4。 The Hardworking Ijichi-sensei - A story about Yuuji who spent a day following Ijichi-san to many places to work。 I LOOOOVE this story。 Ijichi-san may not be a popular character， but he's an ordinary adult among the "specials" one and that makes him so relatable to many other adults who read JJK like me。 This story explained to us how was the administrative works behind the exorcising or fighting events in JJK and make us understand how important the auxiliary managers were and why the Jujutsu Sorcerer Society needed a lot of them。 I really like the relationship between Ijichi-san and Yuuji here。 5。 A Guardian Phantom Patrolling - Yuuji encountered a middle school boy who didn't want to come home because there was a demon in his house。 Yuuji tried to exorcise the demon， but it came back later。I love this story too。 It was simple but perfect to portray Yuuji's characterization。 In the manga and anime， he's always portrayed as kindhearted， sympathetic， perceptive， and understanding， but this story （along with the fourth story） affirmed it by providing other good examples。 Besides， I feel like I see the suppressed part of Yuuji's here: the part of him who feels lonely because he's just alone in this world after his grandpa died。 Before reading this， I already admire and love Yuuji as a shonen protagonist。 This story reminds me why do I feel that way towards him。 ***I enjoyed this light novel。 The characters are so in-character。 I can imagine the scenes in this light novel as a manga/anime visual in my head。 I also love Kitaguni-sensei's writing。 This light novel is different media from the manga or anime， but it doesn't lose the "touch" that Jujutsu Kaisen has in its core story。 It's so well-written， thoughtful， and presenting the deeper exploration of the characters without ruining them at all。 This light novel completes the manga series in a beautiful way。 。。。more

C’était vraiment une superbe découverte。 Je ne savais pas tellement à quoi m’attendre et je n’ai pas été déçue。 Il s’agit de plusieurs petites histoires qui approfondissent les personnages。 Je pense notamment à Ichiji le proviseur。 J’ai aussi apprécié celle consacrée à Mahito et l’ermite aveugle。 Et ma préférée， celle sur Gojo et Nanami。 Une petite mission dont il n’est pas fait mention dans les pages du manga， mais vraiment intéressante。 Je recommande vraiment de lire ce roman si vous aimez le C’était vraiment une superbe découverte。 Je ne savais pas tellement à quoi m’attendre et je n’ai pas été déçue。 Il s’agit de plusieurs petites histoires qui approfondissent les personnages。 Je pense notamment à Ichiji le proviseur。 J’ai aussi apprécié celle consacrée à Mahito et l’ermite aveugle。 Et ma préférée， celle sur Gojo et Nanami。 Une petite mission dont il n’est pas fait mention dans les pages du manga， mais vraiment intéressante。 Je recommande vraiment de lire ce roman si vous aimez le manga。 。。。more

“L’essentiel， c'était d’avancer。 Un pas après l’autre， jusqu’à trouver sa voie。”I was so curious to discover the novel adapted from one of my favorite mangas of all times。 It compiles 5 separate stories following Yuuji & Megumi， Gojo & Nanami， Mahito， Yuuji & Ichiji and Yuuji by himself。 And I really loved it ！The stories by themselves don't add much to the plot， if at all。 They’re basically bonus scenes set in between the events from the main storyline of the manga。 I love that they each ha “L’essentiel， c'était d’avancer。 Un pas après l’autre， jusqu’à trouver sa voie。”I was so curious to discover the novel adapted from one of my favorite mangas of all times。 It compiles 5 separate stories following Yuuji & Megumi， Gojo & Nanami， Mahito， Yuuji & Ichiji and Yuuji by himself。 And I really loved it ！The stories by themselves don't add much to the plot， if at all。 They’re basically bonus scenes set in between the events from the main storyline of the manga。 I love that they each had a different mood， going from funny to philosophical to a bit horrifying。 There's nothing too fancy about the stories， no big fight scene， or originality in the plot。 But they were still very entertaining to read。What they did the best was definitely add even more character depth。 They made me find new reasons to genuinely care about characters I didn't think much about， like Mahito or Ichiji。 And Yuuji’s different stories definitely gave me at least a hundred more reasons to be even more in love with our main character。 That last story， which was my favorite， definitely had me tearing up from the sheer love I have for him。I wouldn't recommend the novel to anyone who isn't a huge fan， but if you love the anime or the manga as much as I do， you will find it very interesting to delve more into our characters personalities。 I’m really excited for the second novel to be translated， to （hopefully） have stories for our other main characters！ 。。。more

Aún no comprendo muy bien como funcionan las noveles ligeras。 Así que sólo asumiré que es algun tipo de spin off-oficial que bien podría ser canon al 100% 。。。 Spoilers abajo 。。。Como sea， debo decir que disfrute mucho de los 5 capítulos， Kitagumi captó de forma espectacular la escencia de Jujutsu Kaisen y las personalidades únicas de cada personaje， por lo que todo se siente muy acordé， muy fiel al mundo de Jujutsu。 ¿Mi favorita？ El capítulo 2 y 3。 Por un lado tenemos la historia de Gojo y Nanami Aún no comprendo muy bien como funcionan las noveles ligeras。 Así que sólo asumiré que es algun tipo de spin off-oficial que bien podría ser canon al 100% 。。。 Spoilers abajo 。。。Como sea， debo decir que disfrute mucho de los 5 capítulos， Kitagumi captó de forma espectacular la escencia de Jujutsu Kaisen y las personalidades únicas de cada personaje， por lo que todo se siente muy acordé， muy fiel al mundo de Jujutsu。 ¿Mi favorita？ El capítulo 2 y 3。 Por un lado tenemos la historia de Gojo y Nanami， y su relación tan tensa que ahora me parece solo la dinámica entre ellos， realmente no se odian， o desagradan， como me parecía antes， sólo son como son。 Por el otro， tenemos a Mahito， una maldición con problemas muy filosóficos y sentimientos muy humanos， ¿me hace preguntarme que es lo que viene para él el manga？Muchos pensamientos， pocas respuestas。 Se merece sus 5 estrellas y me deja con ganas de más。 100% recomendada 。。。more
