Satoru Gojo She is a special grade jujutsu sorcerer and widely recognized as the strongest in the world. Satoru is the pride of the Gojo Clan, the first person to inherit both the Limitless and the Six Eyes in four hundred years. She works as a teacher at the Tokyo Jujutsu High and uses her influence to protect and train strong young allies. She: 28 Appearance Satoru is a very tall, lean, and muscular woman in her late twenties who is considered relatively attractive, mainly due to her facial features. She has snow-white hair and the Six Eyes, which are a vibrant blue color. Satoru usually covers her eyes with a black blindfold, which props up her hair and gives it a spikier appearance. Satoru wears sunglasses and lets her hair down to the base of her neck when sporting a casual look. While working, Satoru wears a dark blue zip-up jacket with a high collar, which is also fairly broad. She wears matching slim-fit black pants and black dress boots. Before switching over to a simple blindfold, Satoru used to wear bandages over her eyes. Satoru enjoys wearing expensive clothing[6] and has several casual looks she pairs with wearing her sunglasses. Personality Satoru is a complex individual. She is usually laidback and playful with her students, close colleagues, and friends. However, she is unsympathetic and cruel towards sorcerer executives, as seen in her blatant disrespect towards Principal Gakuganji and her enemies. Satoru is overconfident in her abilities and reputation as a powerful sorcerer, believing herself to be invincible. Her opinion of others often only goes as far as her judgment of their strength, and she is rather apathetic towards anyone she deems weak. Additionally, greatly influenced by her desire for power, Gojo is very arrogant. She believes herself to be the strongest in the world, claiming, during her fight with Toji Fushiguro, that “throughout heaven and earth, [she] alone is the honored one.” It is evident during her task of protecting Riko Amanai, one of the few ‘weak’ people she genuinely grew to show compassion for. However, her regret for her death was negated by her extensive pride and arrogance after learning reverse cursed technique in her following battle against Toji Fushiguro.[7] During intense battles, Satoru occasionally falls into a manic fighting state, urged by her determination for victory and undeniable proof that she alone is the strongest. Her combative style is characterized by her aggressive and domineering attacks while flaunting her mastered techniques to her opponents. Furthermore, in a crisis, she is capable of being cold-blooded. She will prioritize her enemies’ destruction over saving innocent people when she believes that the sacrifice is unavoidable. However, this only extends to the people killed by her opponent; she will not do any lasting harm to or kill anyone innocent to gain the upper hand.[8] Nevertheless, despite her arrogance and strength, Satoru is more human than she first appears. After defeating Toji, Satoru retrieved Riko’s corpse with a sorrowful look, showing that although her recent conceited victory temporarily clouded her feelings, she still felt some grief over her death. She sought to kill the Star Religious Group members who were clapping over Riko’s death before being stopped by Suguru Geto — who she relied on as a moral compass at that time — from taking any action.[9] Furthermore, Satoru was later left visibly horrified and panicked after learning that Suguru, her “one and only” best friend, had become a murderous curse user. Satoru attempted to reason with her friend but eventually realized and accepted that she lost the one person she truly saw as an equal.[10] After having to put an end to Suguru’s life before more calamity arose, it was Satoru’s trauma over losing her best friend that caused her ultimate downfall in Shibuya. She was also distraught when Yuji seemingly died. Satoru’s dream and endgame is to reform the jujutsu world from the bottom up through education. She seeks to foster a new generation of sorcerers that she hopes will one day become her equals.[11] Overall Skill Level: Even among the special grade sorcerers, Satoru is known to be the strongest, holding both immense amounts of cursed energy and a dangerously powerful technique. No one can seemingly match her skill level except for the King of Curses, Sukuna. As students, Satoru and Suguru were considered “the strongest,” capable of quickly dealing with experienced and powerful curse users. Whereas before, she and Geto were no match for the renowned Sorcerer Killer, Satoru’s abilities vastly increased to where she was able to put Toji Fushiguro into the defensive and ultimately kill him with her strongest technique after realizing and perfecting her capabilities. As she continued growing, she eclipsed Suguru’s talents to the point Suguru admitted Satoru to be the strongest alone. Suguru also stated that Satoru had the capability of killing all of humanity by herself, which Suguru admitted was out of her ability and didn’t even try to fight back when Satoru prepared to kill him, although Satoru ultimately relented as she was unable to kill her best friend. In the present, Satoru’s might was feared by the higher-ups of the jujutsu society, to where Satoru could easily force them to cancel the executions of the likes of the dangerous fellow special-grade sorcerer Yuta Okkotsu and the vessel of Sukuna, Yuji Itadori. She states that it would be easy for her to kill them all and overthrow the jujutsu society if she actually wanted to. Satoru even claimed that she could defeat Sukuna at full power. Physical Prowess Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Satoru, in addition to her overwhelming levels of cursed energy, is also an extremely formidable martial artist in close combat, with extraordinary physical prowess to back up her skills. Satoru is as skilled as the millennia-old Kenjaku in pure hand-to-hand combat without any cursed energy.[12] She was capable of completely overpowering Jogo in hand-to-hand combat, delivering several precise attacks on Jogo’s fatal spots, and could even casually fight off both Jogo and Hanami with close-quarters combat, easily countering their attacks and landing powerful hits that swiftly pummelled them into submission.[13] Immense Strength: Satoru has the extraordinary physical strength to fight against powerful curses without a problem, causing severe injuries to Jogo with powerful punches and throwing him a considerable distance with a single kick during their fight.[15] She was also able to rip out Jogo’s head and,[16] later on, his arm with sheer physical force and even managed to casually rip out Hanami’s roots.[17] She could casually rip apart transfigured humans, tearing them apart limb by limb.[18] Immense Speed & Reflexes: Satoru is an extremely fast fighter, capable of moving faster than the eye could perceive. She is known as the fastest jujutsu sorcerer, being above Naobito Zenin in terms of speed.[23] She managed to effortlessly outpace Jogo, throwing almost imperceptible punches and kicks. Satoru was even able to successfully react to and dodge the attacks of someone of Toji Fushiguro’s level.[24] Satoru can also accurately eliminate a thousand transfigured humans in a crowd of people in almost five minutes.[25] She was able to move faster than Uraume, a powerful and experienced sorcerer was able to react and may have killed Kenjaku if Sukuna hadn’t intervened. During Satoru’s duel with Sukuna, she proved to be faster than the King of Curses, able to continuously outpace Sukuna in their hand-to-hand combat exchanges, repeatedly pushing him into the defense with her speed and catching him off-guard on certain occasions. Satoru even kept up with Sukuna, Mahoraga, and Merged Beast Agito simultaneously. Immense Endurance: Despite rarely being put in dangerous situations, Satoru has proven herself to be overwhelmingly resilient when needed to be. When Toji stabbed her through the chest when she had just deactivated her Infinity, Satoru showed little pain, and with cursed energy reinforcement, she was able to avoid any further damage. Even after being impaled in the throat and then savagely slashed through her body, not only did Satoru survive, but she was able to instead use the life-and-death experience to understand the nature of reverse cursed technique and become even more powerful than she ever was. Cursed Energy Capacity: Satoru Gojo is known as the strongest jujutsu sorcerer within the modern jujutsu society. She earned this alias in part due to the immense amounts of cursed energy she possesses. Gojo’s vast cursed energy, combined with her cursed energy efficiency, allows her to expand her domain at least five times in one day, while most sorcerers and special grade cursed spirits can only use it once. Throughout her fight with Sukuna, Gojo used cursed energy to constantly reinforce herself and activate her cursed techniques multiple times, without ever showing signs of exhausting her reserves. Cursed Energy Manipulation: Gojo has excellent control over her cursed energy due to the Six Eyes. She is capable of expanding her domain for a split second, using reverse cursed technique, and simultaneously activating and controlling multiple Blues and Reds. Additionally, Gojo has extraordinary cursed energy efficiency. When using cursed techniques, Gojo suffers almost zero unnecessary cursed energy loss. As a result, she spends less cursed energy compared to other sorcerers during combat, giving the impression that she never runs out of cursed energy.[26][27] This allows her to keep Limitless activated at all times while constantly using reverse cursed technique to heal her brain to prevent fatigue,[28] despite the latter’s massive cursed energy consumption.[29] Cursed Energy Output: In addition to her immense cursed energy capacity, Gojo can output high amounts of cursed energy into her techniques to augment their effects. By strengthening the output into her Limitless technique, Gojo countered Jogo and Hanami’s strategy to neutralize her Infinity with domain amplification, expanding the size of Infinity to the point that she could even push back and crush Hanami against a wall with the barrier.[30] By deliberately including the incantations and hand signs of her cursed techniques, Gojo can increase their cursed energy output. While being amplified by Utahime Iori’s Solo Forbidden Area, Gojo boosted her Hollow Technique: Purple’s output to 200% by chanting its cursed chant and performing its gestures. Upon unleashing Purple, the technique travelled from Shibuya to Shinjuku, covering almost four kilometers (2.5 miles) of distance and carving through all the obstacles in its path.[31][32] Cursed Energy Reinforcement: Even when she was a second-year student, Gojo was already skilled at reinforcing her body with cursed energy. When Toji stabbed through her chest with a sword, Gojo reinforced her cursed energy so that the sword couldn’t do further damage, causing the injury to hardly affect her during their first battle.[33] As an adult, Gojo can strengthen herself with cursed energy to vastly increase her physical strength or fortify her body. Many of her aforementioned feats of strength and speed can be attributed to her skill in reinforcement techniques. With cursed energy reinforcement and hand-to-hand combat alone, Gojo was able to overwhelm two special grade cursed spirits. In several instances, single strikes from Gojo were strong enough to either launch her opponents a fair distance away or pierce through them. Black Flash (黒こく閃せん, Kokusen?): A phenomenon that occurs when the user applies cursed energy within 0.000001 seconds of a physical hit, creating a spatial distortion that causes their cursed energy to flash black and amplifies the destructive power of the strike to the power of 2.5.[34] Satoru first demonstrated her ability to use Black Flash against Sukuna during their battle in Shinjuku, dealing a devastating strike when the King of Curses least expected it and knocking him unconscious.[35] Gojo has used Black Flash more times than Kento Nanami but less times consecutively, though her record was eventually surpassed by Yuji Itadori.[36] It is currently unknown how many times exactly Gojo has performed Black Flash, but she has used it at least four times. ⸻ Cursed Technique Inherited Technique Limitless (無む下か限げん, Mukagen?): Limitless is an inherited technique of the Gojo family. This technique grants its users nigh-absolute control over space through cursed energy manipulation at an atomic level,[37] resulting in multiple subsequent results and techniques within the overall ability. With the manipulation of space as just the base level of the technique, Limitless has three standard and one “non-standard” form beyond this. Infinity (無む限げん, Mugen?): Being the neutral form of the Limitless, the Infinity is commonly known as the ability to stop,[38] although this is a common misconception as the true power of the Infinity is to slow things down. When something attempts to hit Satoru, the person or object in question instead hits the infinity between herself and them.[39][40] According to Satoru, this is the convergence of an infinite series and comes straight from the paradox of Achilles and the tortoise. Akin to the way Achilles will never catch the tortoise due to the potential, infinite amounts of finite space separating them or how the real number one will never touch the real number two due to the infinite amount of fractions that separate them, the opponent will never touch Satoru due to the infinity between them.[41] Satoru initially had to manually activate Infinity, and keeping it active for long periods of time tired her.[42] Since her third year at Jujutsu High, Satoru has programmed Infinity to be constantly active, and automatically target and protect her by discerning the danger levels of approaching objects based on their cursed energy intensity, mass, speed, and shape. While this would normally fatigue her brain, an efficient and constant usage of reverse cursed technique allowed Gojo to keep her brain refreshed.[43] Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue (術じゅつ式しき順じゅん転てん「蒼あお」, Jutsushiki Junten・Ao?): The reinforced version of the neutral limitless;[38] Blue is the byproduct of Gojo amplifying the Limitless with negative cursed energy, producing a vacuum. Through these, Gojo creates a scenario where the world itself is forced to correct itself and fill in the negative space, causing all matter in the range of the commanded space to be pulled together.[44] Cursed Technique Lapse - Maximum Cursed Energy Output: Blue (術じゅつ式しき順じゅん転てん出しゅつ力りょく最さい大だい「蒼あお」, Jutsushiki Junten Shutsuryoku Saidai・Ao?): Satoru creates a center of gravity in a specific space capable of attracting all matter, crushing it all effortlessly akin to a black hole. She can also move the point of gravity at will, augmenting its destructive capabilities greatly.[45] Cursed Technique Reversal: Red (術じゅつ式しき反はん転てん「赫あか」, Jutsushiki Hanten・Aka?): Being an inversion of Blue, Red has the opposite effect. By flowing positive energy generated from reverse cursed technique into her Limitless technique,[47][48] Satoru inverts the properties of Blue and activates the divergence of Infinity, causing an extremely powerful repulsive force that blasts targets away. Red outputs at least twice as much energy as Blue.[49] Hollow Technique: Purple (虚きょ式しき「茈むらさき」, Kyoshiki・Murasaki?): An advanced technique that collides the Lapse and Reversal of the Limitless, resulting in the creation of imaginary mass that is then launched at the target to deal destructive damage.[50] ⸻ Reverse Cursed Technique Reverse Cursed Technique (反はん転てん術じゅつ式しき, Hanten Jutsushiki?): At first, while a first and second year student of Jujutsu High, Satoru was unable to grasp the complex nature of reverse cursed technique. After being put on her deathbed during her first fight with Toji Fushiguro, Satoru finally understood how to perform the technique and tapped into the core of cursed energy, granting her the ability to not only heal herself, but also make the positive energy flow into the Limitless, giving her access to her Red and Hollow Purple techniques.[51] During her duel with Sukuna, Satoru survived the onslaught of slashes from Malevolent Shrine by using reverse cursed technique at full power.[52] Additionally, Satoru further demonstrated her expertise with reverse cursed technique by using it to replenish her burned-out cursed technique, an unprecedented and seemingly impossible feat even for a talented sorcerer like Yuta Okkotsu.[53] ⸻ Barrier Techniques Curtain (帳とばり, Tobari?): Gojo can create a barrier that surrounds a certain area. The barrier can seal the area off from other people or a specific person wanting to get in. ⸻ Anti-Domain Techniques New Shadow Style: Simple Domain (シン・陰かげ流りゅう 簡かん易い領りょう域いき, Shin Kageryū: Kan’i Ryōiki?): An anti-domain technique that neutralizes a domain’s barrier and disables its sure-hit effect in a set area of space around the user. Satoru normally doesn’t need to resort to doing so and Yuji didn’t even know she could do it before the former’s fight with Sukuna. Unlike Yuki Tsukumo, Satoru is not suited to teach the technique to others.[54] Falling Blossom Emotion (落らっ花かの情じょう, Rakka no Jō?): A secret art and an anti-domain technique exclusively passed down in the Big Three Families. It shrouds the user in cursed energy, which counterattacks a domain’s sure-hit attack the moment it makes contact. Gojo learned this technique when she was a kid, but stopped using it after mastering her domain until her battle with Sukuna. Normally, this technique can nullify a domain’s attacks, however, it only weakened the damage from Malevolent Shrine due to the domain’s high output.[55] ⸻ Domain Expansion Unlimited Void (無む量りょう空くう処しょ, Muryōkūsho?): Satoru’s Domain Expansion. It creates a metaphysical space that causes the victims to receive all kinds of stimuli and information endlessly, restraining their thought processes and actions.[56] In terms of raw strength, Satoru’s domain is equal to Sukuna’s on the inside, only losing due to Malevolent Shrine’s open domain that allowed Sukuna to destroy the barrier of Unlimited Void.[57] Satoru’s skill with her Domain Expansion is so great that she can precisely activate it for only 0.2 seconds, limiting its lasting effect on those she traps within it,[58] and is able to freely change the conditions of Unlimited Void’s barrier. Satoru herself and those she makes physical contact with are immune to its effect.[59] ⸻ Special Abilities Six Eyes (六りく眼がん, Rikugan?): An innate trait rarely inherited by individuals in the Gojo Clan, similar to the Limitless. These eyes grant their wielder incredible perception and precise control of cursed energy. Even when they are completely obscured, the Six Eyes function like high-definition infrared vision, allowing the user to perceive their environment through the flow of cursed energy. These eyes also allow the user to see through a sorcerer’s cursed technique and determine its nature.[60][41][61] The extremely precise manipulation of cursed energy granted by the Six Eyes allows the user to activate their cursed techniques with incredible levels of efficiency, resulting in almost zero cursed energy loss due to inefficiency, which lets the user use comparatively less cursed energy than others when activating the same techniques.[26] Consequently, the Six Eyes are essential for using and mastering the Limitless technique.[ Utahime Iori is a semi-grade 1 jujutsu sorcerer and student supervisor at Kyoto Jujutsu High. Age: 31 BIRTHDAY: February 18, 1987[2] GENDER: Female Female EYE COLOR: Brown HAIR COLOR: Purple/Black OCCUPATION: Jujutsu Sorcerer, Teacher AFFILIATION: Kyoto Metropolitan Curse Technical College GRADE: Semi-Grade 1 Appearance Utahime has long blackish-purple hair that extends down her back, with some strands tied behind her head, thin eyebrows, brown eyes and a scar on the right side of her face that crosses the bridge of her nose. She is slender and of average height. Utahime wears a traditional miko outfit (consisting of a white kosode and red umanori-styled hakama pants), despite wearing modern brown colored boots. On her day off, Utahime wears a dark purple baseball hat, white overalls over a black low-cut, long-sleeved shirt, and dark-colored shoes. Personality Utahime is a calm, kind yet stern individual who tries to set an example for her students. However, Satoru Gojo knows exactly how to push her buttons and angers her in almost every exchange they've had. When Gojo told her she couldn't be a traitor because she was too weak, Utahime threw her cup of tea at her. She often tells her to respect her elders because she's older than she is, but she never listens. Cursed Energy (呪じゅ力りょく, Juryoku?) is a form of spiritual energy that leaks from humans as a result of their negative emotions, makes up the bodies of cursed spirits, and is utilized by sorcerers and cursed spirits alike to fuel their jujutsu. Abilities and Powers Overall Skill Level: Utahime is a capable semi-grade 1 sorcerer who mainly acts as support for her allies. Although primarily a support sorcerer, Utahime still goes on dangerous missions, such as when she went to save the students from potential curse users or cursed spirits, with Gakuganji asking her to avoid fighting, confirming that she is capable of it if necessary.[3] Cursed Techniques Innate Technique Solo Forbidden Area Solo Forbidden Area (単独ソロソロ禁キン区ク, Soro Soro Kinku?) is Utahime's innate technique. It temporarily amplifies the cursed energy of any willing sorcerer within range, including herself. The technique can be elevated into a ritual using incantations, hand signs, dance, and music. By including all of these steps, the technique's effectiveness can be raised to 120%.[6] Barrier Techniques Utahime attempts to cast a curtain (Anime) Curtain (帳とばり, Tobari?): A type of barrier that is cast over a large area to hide everything within it from the outside world. Utahime, while investigating a cursed mansion in Hamamatsu City, attempts to cast a curtain though Mei Mei interrupts her.[7] Description Cursed energy compiling to form curses in populated areas associated with stress. Negative emotions such as fear, grief, anger, hatred, and envy are the foundation of cursed energy. These emotions exist to some degree within most humans and as a result, the vast majority of human beings possess cursed energy. If this amount is higher than a certain degree, it grants the person the ability to see cursed spirits. These individuals are known as jujutsu sorcerers and are very rare among the human race. Cursed energy leaks from the human body, accumulates, and ferments over time until a cursed spirit manifests.[1] This is only the case with non-sorcerers, as sorcerers are trained to control and channel their cursed energy into jujutsu. Cursed energy is the primary power source for any sorcerer or cursed spirit; sorcerers voluntarily produce said energy akin to the generation of electricity, and since negative emotions are the trigger, sorcerers train to create cursed energy from the slightest spark of emotion.[2] Cursed tools, cursed objects, and cursed corpses all contain cursed energy as well. It is ordinarily used to fuel cursed techniques, reinforce the body, or activate talismans, but cursed energy has various uses. The properties of cursed energy vary from person to person and its connection to the human brain is shrouded in mystery. In the anime, most cursed energy is blue in color but there are several exceptions. The aggregate amount of an individual's cursed energy isn't determined by how many negative emotions they possess but by their innate talent for jujutsu. For example, Yuta Okkotsu possesses an immense amount of cursed energy due to his genetic relation to Michizane Sugawara. Cursed Energy Detection powerful cursed energy. Cursed Energy Perception (呪じゅ力りょく感かん知ち, Juryoku Kanchi?)[3] refers to the ability of humans with above-average levels of cursed energy to sense, and especially see, curses and jujutsu. The minimum requirement for a human to be considered a sorcerer is the ability to see curses. In extreme cases, humans will gain the ability to see curses when their life is in danger.[4] The strength of a sorcerer or curse is generally assessed by their levels of cursed energy. Strong cursed energy can result in physical pressure that instills fear into those who sense it as a method of intimidation. The same concept can be applied to a jujutsu battle where reading an opponent's cursed energy is an effective way to predict their movements. Prediction based on cursed energy can backfire when faced with a fighter in cases where their physical prowess outclasses their cursed energy. Physically fast and strong fighters with low cursed energy are often unpredictable to enemy sorcerers.[5] Cursed Spirits (呪じゅ霊れい, Jurei?), or simply Curses (呪のろい, Noroi?), are a race of spiritual beings invisible to humans, incarnated from the cursed energy that leaks out of humans over time due to their negative emotions. Cursed spirits haunt and bring harm to humanity and are consequently the primary targets of jujutsu sorcerers and their exorcist work. History The origin of curses and jujutsu is largely unknown. However, it can be surmised that because cursed energy comes from negative emotion, curses have always existed alongside humanity. During the Heian Era, the golden age of jujutsu, the sorcerer Ryomen Sukuna was recognized as the undisputed King of Curses. His influence has lived on to greatly affect the current age. In the modern-day, the number of unexplained deaths and disappearances in Japan exceeds ten thousand annually. These statistics are a direct result of the influence that curses have on normal society. Their existence has been kept secret from non-sorcerers, as they are invisible to them. Jujutsu sorcerers act in secret to repel the threat of curses. Description Creation Process Curses are created when cursed energy leaks from (non-sorcerer) humans as a result of their harboring of negative emotions. Cursed energy thus gathers in one spot, building up like sediment until a cursed spirit takes form.[1][2] Cursed Energy compiling to form a curse (Anime) Negative energy flowing out of humans and collecting in one place to form a curse. Populated locations such as schools and hospitals are hotspots for bearing curses because many negative emotions are associated with memories of those places.[3] This same concept applies humanity's collective fear and hatred. An image of fear shared by the masses can create a powerful curse even if the subject is not real, such as famous monsters or ghosts. It is the negative emotions that humanity directed at this image that causes it to manifest as a curse. Longstanding negative feelings, such as humanity's collective relationship with plagues and natural disasters, results in a collection of cursed energy so massive the cursed spirits manifested from them have a consciousness related to those feelings. Characteristics Bakery girl cursed (Anime) A young woman unknowingly cursed by a Fly Head. Cursed spirits bodies are entirely made up of cursed energy. Their metaphysical existence makes it impossible for non-sorcerers to perceive or touch them. Living non-sorcerers who have been cursed can only tell they have strange symptoms without realizing a cursed spirit is behind it; however, it is possible to gain the ability to see a curse in a life-or-death situation due to the overwhelming negative emotion the person experiences and consequently high cursed energy they emit.[8] Curses born from natural disasters (Anime) Curses created from humanity's collective fear of natural disasters. Curses come in all kinds of grotesque shapes and sizes. They tend to linger around their point of origin and instinctively curse humans.[9] Other than that, a curse's habits vary a great deal from spirit to spirit. Curses are most stable while possessing an item,[10] and some curses can possess inanimate objects to become cursed corpses.[11] Special grade cursed spirits with high intelligence tend to be bipedal creatures with structure comparable to humans. They are capable of holding a normal conversation and working together as an organized group. It must be noted, however, that intelligence is not exclusive to special grade cursed spirits; even a curse as low as Grade 3 or 4 can possess intelligence.[12][13][14] Certain curses, such as shikigami, obey humans after they're forced into submission by their master.[15] Others have the ability to mark a human and haunt them, making them capable of attacking a human even if they're located away from their point of origin.[16] As stated by Uraume, although there are some exceptions, when cursed spirits are killed, or lose a part of their limbs, they turn to dust as a result of a disappearing reaction. Cursed spirits have cores in their bodies, which can be in their heads or elsewhere.[17] Exorcism Finger Bearer after being exorcised by Megumi (Anime) A curse disappearing after being exorcised by a sorcerer's shikigami. With bodies composed of cursed energy, cursed spirits cannot be harmed by conventional means. They can be hit by a physical attack but it will deal no damage regardless of how powerful it is. The general rule of jujutsu is that a curse must be exorcised using another curse, which means curses can only be exorcised using cursed energy.[18] A fatal attack using cursed energy will cause the cursed spirit to disappear completely. Curses that are too powerful to be destroyed must be sealed away using a constraint. Tokyo Prefectural Jujutsu High School (東とう京きょう都と立りつ呪じゅ術じゅつ高こう等とう専せん門もん学がっ校こう, Tōkyō Toritsu Jujutsu Kōtō Senmon Gakkō?, lit. "Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College"), commonly referred to as Tokyo Jujutsu High, is the sister school of Kyoto Jujutsu High. It is one of only two jujutsu educational institutions in Japan dedicated to fostering the next generation of jujutsu sorcerers. Tokyo Jujutsu High serves not only as a training ground for the next generation of sorcerers but a headquarters for all alumni who have graduated on to be full-fledged jujutsu sorcerers as well. All sorcerers play a role in mentoring jujutsu students, whether in a teacher's role or accompanying them on missions. Weaker sorcerers are assigned the roles of windows (窓まど, Mado?), someone who can see curses but is not considered a full-fledged sorcerer or assistant manager (補ほ助じょ監かん督とく, Hojo Kantoku?) to contribute as well.[1][2] The jujutsu schools are considered the place for the community and provide mediation, general support, education, and shelter.[3] Location Tokyo Jujutsu High is a broad campus of several buildings build in a traditional Japanese architectural style, operating under the guise of a Buddhist temple. The school building is well hidden on Tokyo's outskirts, far and high in the mountains. Naturally, there are a lot of trees around the property to further obscure the location.[4] Some elements other than the buildings reflect the Buddhist theme. There are several statues of deities, shrines, and torii gates around the campus. There are several entrances into the school. The entire property is hidden by a protective barrier maintained by Master Tengen, who lives beneath the school in the Tombs of the Star.[5] The school grounds include training grounds, courtyards, dormitories, and classrooms, among a variety of other amenities.

Satoru Gojo overlooking the entire mountainous area surrounding Tokyo Jujutsu High. Administration Main Article: Jujutsu Headquarters Satoru's friction with higher-ups The friction between Satoru Gojo and the higher-ups. Both Jujutsu High locations were established by Jujutsu Headquarters as institutions for the education, guidance, and supervision of jujutsu sorcerers. The Principal serves as the head of the school and oversees all affairs concerning the training of sorcerers, handles of all sorcerers of danger, and has the authority to command and supervise all sorcerers. The Principal is appointed by Jujutsu Headquarters based on recommendations of the Big Three Sorcerer Families. Jujutsu Headquarters has the commanding authority of the Principal and the Jujutsu Inspector General can take control over all sorcerers in the case of an emergency. Jujutsu sorcerers must report any source of danger to the Principal. Based on their report, the Principal will determine the level of danger, notify Jujutsu Headquarters, and dispatch the necessary personnel and resources to neutralize the threat.[6] Jujutsu Headquarters is predominantly controlled by the conservative faction of the higher-ups that often clash with Satoru Gojo, including members such as Kyoto Principal, Yoshinobu Gakuganji.[7] The members of the higher-ups meet on campus to discuss developments in meetings with selected sorcerers, such as Satoru. These meetings take place in a dimly lit room illuminated by candle lights where the higher-up's bodies are hidden by doors.[8] Many of the politics that play out due to the influence of the higher-ups affect the students. Rules and Security Upon enrolling in Jujutsu High, transfer students are taught about the school's rules and security measures. The school is protected by Master Tengen's barrier, which hides its location from the outside world. Those who already know the location can easily find it. One entrance is in the foothills of Mount Mushiro up a long set of stairs marked with a series of torii gates.[11] All jujutsu sorcerers must abide by jujutsu regulations. There are a total of nine articles, some of which list out punishments that can call for someone's immediate execution even if they become a potential vessel to a curse as powerful as Sukuna.[12] Article 9 of the jujutsu regulations punishes jujutsu sorcerers turned curse users with execution as well.[13] Curriculum Satoru and Suguru coming to class (Anime) Satoru and Suguru in class as students. The school's curriculum is taught over four years.[14] The concept is to train young sorcerers to control their curses and use them to exorcise other curses. All classes appear to be taught by active professional jujutsu sorcerers. The teachers regulate their students' training regiments and education as they see fit. Sorcerers are rare, so classes are often small and focused on building up the individual students into competent sorcerers as quickly as possible. First field test (Anime) Satoru eventually became a teacher and assigned his students to field missions as training. Students are given a formal education with standard school classes such as homeroom and sorcerer training through practical jujutsu classes.[15] They move from their original homes to live on campus in the dormitories. The majority of training, classes, and school events are all conducted on campus grounds. Practical training assignments and field tests often consist of investigating paranormal locations and exorcising weaker curses.[16][17] Jujutsu High students are ranked on the same scale as professional jujutsu sorcerers, which their student ID reflects.[18] Same as jujutsu sorcerers, students are given missions according to their ranking.[19] When leaving school grounds to exorcise curses as a part of their training to gain experience, students are often supervised by a sorcerer or manager.[20] ADVERTISEMENT Uniforms The male school uniform consists of asymmetrical blue jackets with high collars and two pins on the left side engraved with the school logo. The male uniform is completed with a pair of matching blue slacks. The standard female uniform has the same top with a skirt for a bottom. The uniforms are highly customizable, and many of the students have their own variations of the uniform. The top half of Nobara's uniform is similar to a traditional gakuran uniform, with buttons from top to bottom down the middle. Jujutsu High has summer and winter uniforms like most Japanese schools. There usually isn't much difference between them other than breathability because the uniforms must remain practical for combat. If a student desires a custom uniform, they can put in a request with the school.[21] A jujutsu world-dedicated tailor is responsible for tailoring the uniforms, and the materials used to make them are resistant to cursed energy.[2] Landmarks Satoru Gojo in class with his students (Anime) Classrooms: As with any school, there are several classrooms throughout the facility. The one Gojo sensei uses to teach his students is a small room with windows, desks for the students, and a blackboard alongside a teaching area. Secret Execution (Anime) Isolation Chamber: Those being held for execution are sentenced to an isolation chamber where the walls are entirely covered in talismans. Both Yuji and Yuta were sentenced here for a "secret execution." Tokyo Jujutsu High dorms (Anime) Dormitory: Each student is given a large room in the school dorms to stay in. They can be reorganized and decorated as the student sees fit. Due to the low volume of students there are many empty rooms.[24] Tokyo Jujutsu High morgue (Anime) Morgue: In one of the buildings, there is a morgue for fallen sorcerers who are killed in action. Their bodies are brought back to the morgue, where their fellow sorcerers can properly mourn the loss and dispose of the corpse. The Hidden Room (Anime) Hidden Room: Satoru Gojo has a spacious room somewhere on campus that kept hidden from authority. He hid Yuji here while training him for the Goodwill Event. Following Gojo's disappearance, his students used the room to hide and regroup with Yuki Tsukumo.[25] Mount Mushiro Foothills (Anime) Foothills of Mount Mushiro (筵むしろ山やま麓ふもと, Mushiro Yama Fumoto?): The entrance to Tokyo Jujutsu High is in the foothills of Mt. Mushiro. Deep in the forests, there is a long set of stairs accented by a line of repeating torii gates that lead beyond Master Tengen's barrier into the school grounds.[26] Tokyo Jujutsu High's Cursed Warehouse Cursed Warehouse (忌き庫こ, Kiko?): There is a small warehouse on the path towards of the Tombs of the Star that is used to store cursed tools and cursed objects. Choso can sense his brother's inside the warehouse, allowing him to bypass the concealing barrier. Mahito did the same thing to break in during the Goodwill Event.[27] Following the Shibuya Incident, the Kamo and Zenin clans cleared out most of the cursed tools and took them back to their respective properties.[28] Tombs of the Star Location Description Main Hall of the Tomb of the Star (Anime) Tombs of the Star (薨こう星せい宮ぐう, Kōseigū?): The Tombs of the Star Corridor where Master Tengen resides is protected by their concealing barrier. Only one door leads to the corridor but there are over a thousand doors that continuously shuffle.[29] The correct door opens to a massive drop with tall old trees with no foliage below. This leads to the space between the entrance and the actual tomb. It is an indoor forest area with trees, grass, and dirt. Jujutsu High's cursed warehouse where they store cursed objects is located in this area.[30] Deeper inside is an elevator that descends underground to the main corridor. The main hall consists of a compound of old buildings that circle around a gigantic tree. There is a path that leads directly to the base of the tree where Master Tengen resides.[31] The bloodstains from Riko Amanai's death still remain on this path twelve years later.[32] There is also another barrier at the entrance to Master Tengen's shrine that prevents anyone from intruding other than those directly invited. If one were to enter and be rejected, they would walk into an empty white space void of Master Tengen's presence.[33] Enemy of this: Kagemane (影真似) “True Shadow Imitation” ⸻ Classification • Official Rank: Semi-Grade 2 • True Rank: Special Grade (Unrecognized) • Status: Recently discovered by the Jujutsu Society • Threat History: Killed multiple Grade 4 and 3 sorcerers before recognition ⸻ Origin • An ancient cursed spirit from the Edo era • Formed from collective fear and doubt among sorcerers about being surpassed or replaced • Avoided detection for centuries due to its subtle presence and range-based ability • Only recently came to the attention of the Jujutsu Society ⸻ Appearance Kagemane is centipede-like, insectoid, but upright for combat: • Long, segmented torso arches slightly forward • Multiple side limbs along its body, but two main limbs function as arms for fighting • Lower body tapers into a shadow-like mass rather than distinct legs • Black, layered chitin-like surface flickers like liquid shadow • Elongated, insectoid head with deep hollow indentations instead of eyes • Movements are eerily smooth and deliberate, blending human and bug-like motion ⸻ Innate Technique Perfect Shadow Replication • Within a 20-meter radius, Kagemane can create one perfect shadow copy of any target with cursed energy • Activation is instant—no ritual, no contact needed ⸻ Clone Rules • Only one active clone at a time If a new one is created, the previous disappears immediately • The clone is 100% identical: • Same cursed energy • Same techniques • Same memories • Same combat ability • The clone has its own independent cursed energy pool Equal to the original at the moment of copying • The clone is: • Fully sentient • Aware it is a copy • Completely loyal to Kagemane ⸻ Combat Dynamic Every fight becomes: You vs yourself—while Kagemane watches. • No overwhelming numbers • No distractions • Just a perfect mirror match Kagemane doesn’t need more than one. ⸻ Counter Domain Amplification • Negates the cursed technique on contact • Prevents Kagemane from creating a copy while active • Can disrupt or erase the clone if used properly This gives skilled sorcerers a real answer—but not an easy one. ⸻ Additional Natural Weakness (not nerfing, just logic) Even though the clone is perfect: • It only knows what the original knew at the moment of creation • If the original adapts mid-fight, the clone doesn’t automatically update So growth, unpredictability, and creativity still matter. Origin Kagemane was born from a very specific thought shared among sorcerers: “If I fought myself… would I win?” Not fear. Not hatred. Just doubt. That quiet, dangerous uncertainty— the idea that your own power might not be enough— eventually took form. Domain Expansion “Arena of Reflected Judgment” (真影闘場 / Shinei Tōjō) ⸻ Domain Appearance A massive, enclosed colosseum formed from black stone and shadow. • Towering walls encircle the space, sealing all escape • The ground is a dark arena floor, cracked and worn like countless battles have taken place • The sky above is dim and unnatural, like a constant twilight • Shadows stretch unnaturally across the arena, shifting on their own At the highest point of the colosseum: • Kagemane watches silently, perched above like a judge overseeing a gladiator match ⸻ Sure-Hit Effect Upon activation: • A perfect clone of the target is instantly created within the arena • The clone is identical in every way and immediately engages in combat • The fight is isolated—one vs one, no interference The domain enforces a duel against oneself ⸻ Core Rule • Only one clone exists at a time • The fight continues until one side is defeated • There is no escape, no outside aid, and no interruption The domain is not about overwhelming force—it is about judgment through combat ⸻ Victory & Punishment System Once the domain ends, the outcome determines the consequence: If the Target Loses One of two punishments is inflicted:

1. Their cursed energy is completely stripped for several minutes
2. They are inflicted with a fatal injury upon release ⸻ If the Target Wins The effect reverses onto Kagemane:
3. Its cursed energy is temporarily stripped
4. It suffers a severe, potentially fatal injury Kagemane’s Role • Does not interfere in the duel • Observes from above in silence • Acts as an arbiter, not a participant Occasionally speaking: “Only one truth will remain.” “Show which one deserves to stand.”
