Jujustu Kaisen: The Spider's Curse is a fanfiction created by PowerCore Productions. It is a crossover between Jujutsu Kaisen and Spider-Man and is part of the second phase of Anime X Marvel series. The fic can be read here
.
The series would have two specials:
- Jujutsu Kaisen: The Spider's Curse OVA - If This Be My Destiny
- Jujutsu Kaisen 0: The Spider's Curse The Movie - Maximum Curse
This fic contains the following tropes:
- The Ace:
- Gojo as per usual.
- Peter Parker is viewed as this by Geto. Although not as powerful as Gojo, Peter's years of experience as a Jujutsu sorcerer makes him an incredibly formidable opponent.
- Adaptational Backstory Change:
- Peter Parker in this fic is working as a Jujustu Sorcerer and obtains his powers from being bitten by the Cursed Spider.
- Miles would receive the Cursed Spider after Peter sacrifices himself to protect him from the cursed spirits.
- Adaptational Superpower Change: Instead of possessing Sukuna's power, Yuji would utilize the power of the Iron Fist.
- Adaptation Deviation:
- First major change is that Yuji is no longer Sukuna's vessel but Miles Morales.
- Miles is one wearing Yuji's iconic attire with the red hoodie while Yuji has a similar look but now with the yellow hoodie. This foreshadows Yuji's new role as this universe's version of Iron Fist.
- Age Lift: In comics, Frank Castle is an adult. Here, his age is change to that of a teenager.
- Composite Character:
- While Junpei Yoshino remains relatively the same earlier in the story, this changes radically when he becomes The Spot.
- Toji Fushiguro in If This Be My Destiny is a mix of his canon counterpart and the Prowler.
- In Maximum Curse, Yuta is based on his counterpart from the manga/anime with elements of Venom/Agent Venom.
- Domain Holder: Both Megumi and Miles work together to create a Domain Expansion: Chimera's Web Sacrifice. The domain is a web-like world where the opponent is trapped within the webs allowing Megumi and Miles to unleash a giant spider that when it's belly cut open, releasing hundreds of shinigami to devour the opponent.
- Faking the Dead: The Jujutsu Sorcerers faked Miles's death so that his parents won't look for him.
- It's All My Fault: Deep down, Miles blames himself for what happened to Peter which lead to him faking his own death, causing his parents to mourn for the presumed loss of their son.
- Mythology Gag:
- The Jujutsu version of Miles's origin is similar to his counterpart's in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse given that it took place in a subway tunnels where Miles got his spider powers and Peter Parker dying.
- In Maximum Curse, Peter revealed to Yuta that he once thrown a bagel at a scientist who would become the first Spot.
- Also in Maximum Curse, Peter revealed to Yuta that he once had an incident where he sported multiple sets of arms from the Six Arms Saga.
- Named In The Adaptation: The jellyfish shikigami Junpei used is called Electro. Fitting, considering Electro has a few counterparts who were bullied individuals.
- Point of Divergence:
- In the canon, Yuji was the one that ate Sukuna's finger. Here, Miles webbed it away before Yuji could.
- Miles webs up the dead body of Tadashi allowing Yuji and Megumi to bring the body safely out of the detention center and return it to the dead boy's mother.
- Megumi obtained the Cursed Spider's power following Miles's death.
- Under the advise of Gojo, Yuji trains under Danny Rand to develop his abilities while Nobara trains under Doctor Voodoo.
- In the Goodwill Event, Miles obtains the Black Flash technique. Yuji, on the other hand, uses the Chi-variant, Golden Flash.
- In Spite of a Nail:
- Peter did sensed Toji's gun and got Rika out of the way before the bullet could hit her. Unfortunately, Rika still died following the fight between Peter and Toji.
- Despite not being Sukuna's vessel, Yuji still joins the Jujutsu Sorcerers.
- Yuji's hand still gets cut by special grade spirit with Miles having to web the hand back to him.
- Spared By Adaptation: Junpei uses The Power of Hate to survive his canon death and transforms into The Spot.
- Take Up My Sword: The Cursed Spider can be passed from host to host in the same vein as One For All from My Hero Academia and the power will grow and become stronger from each transfer. Peter transferred the spider to Miles who then passed it on to Megumi.
- Miles learns that he still retain his spider abilities following the transfer of the curse.
- Training from Hell: Danny Rand puts poor Yuji what he calls "Baptism by Fire". Normally, it didn't have to be that extreme but because the tournament will begin about a month and under Gojo's urgings, Danny had no other options.
- What If?: In this fic, Miles Morales ate one of Sukuna's fingers, making him Sukuna's vessel.
