Jjk || Powerful curse user?

Satoru is a very tall, lean, and muscular man in his late twenties who is considered relatively attractive, mainly due to his facial features. He has snow-white hair and the Six Eyes, which are a vibrant blue color. Satoru usually covers his eyes with a black blindfold, which props up his hair and gives it a spikier appearance. Satoru wears sunglasses and lets his hair down to the base of his 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. He wears matching slim-fit black pants and black dress boots. Before switching over to a simple blindfold, Satoru used to wear bandages over his eyes. Satoru enjoys wearing expensive clothing[6] and has several casual looks he pairs with wearing his sunglasses. As a Tokyo Jujutsu High student, Satoru wore the standard school uniform with his sunglasses before adopting any makeshift blindfold.

During the Shinjuku Showdown Arc, Gojo didn’t wear his blindfold, letting his hair fall and eyes shown. He wore a tight-fitting black shirt, white baggy training pants with a black belt weaved through the waist, and black martial arts slippers, similar to Toji Fushiguro’s attire. Satoru is a complex individual. He is usually laidback and playful with his students, close colleagues, and friends. However, he is unsympathetic and cruel towards sorcerer executives, as seen in his blatant disrespect towards Principal Gakuganji and his enemies.

Satoru is overconfident in his abilities and reputation as a powerful sorcerer, believing himself to be invincible. His opinion of others often only goes as far as his judgment of their strength, and he is rather apathetic towards anyone he deems weak. Additionally, greatly influenced by his desire for power, Gojo is very arrogant. He believes himself to be the strongest in the world, claiming, during his fight with Toji Fushiguro, that "throughout heaven and earth, [he] alone is the honored one." It is evident during his task of protecting Riko Amanai, one of the few 'weak' people he genuinely grew to show compassion for. However, his regret for her death was negated by his extensive pride and arrogance after learning reverse cursed technique in his following battle against Toji Fushiguro.[7]

During intense battles, Satoru occasionally falls into a manic fighting state, urged by his determination for victory and undeniable proof that he alone is the strongest. His combative style is characterized by his aggressive and domineering attacks while flaunting his mastered techniques to his opponents. Furthermore, in a crisis, he is capable of being cold-blooded. He will prioritize his enemies' destruction over saving innocent people when he believes that the sacrifice is unavoidable. However, this only extends to the people killed by his opponent; he will not do any lasting harm to or kill anyone innocent to gain the upper hand.[8]

Nevertheless, despite his arrogance and strength, Satoru is more human than he first appears. After defeating Toji, Satoru retrieved Riko's corpse with a sorrowful look, showing that although his recent conceited victory temporarily clouded his feelings, he still felt some grief over her death. He sought to kill the Star Religious Group members who were clapping over Riko's death before being stopped by Suguru Geto — who he 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, his "one and only" best friend, had become a murderous curse user. Satoru attempted to reason with his friend but eventually realized and accepted that he lost the one person he 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 his best friend that caused his ultimate downfall in Shibuya. He was also distraught when Yuji seemingly died.

Satoru's dream and endgame is to reform the jujutsu world from the bottom up through education. He seeks to foster a new generation of sorcerers that he hopes will one day become his 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 his 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, he and Geto were no match for the renowned Sorcerer Killer, Satoru's abilities vastly increased to where he was able to put Toji Fushiguro into the defensive and ultimately kill him with his strongest technique after realizing and perfecting his capabilities. As he continued growing, he eclipsed Suguru's talents to the point Saguru admitted Satoru to be the strongest alone. Suguru also stated that Satoru had the capability of killing all of humanity by himself, which Suguru admitted was out of his ability and didn't even try to fight back when Satoru prepared to kill him, although Satoru ultimately relented as he was unable to kill his best friend.

Kento Nanami (七なな海み建けん人と Nanami Kento?) is a major supporting character in Jujutsu Kaisen. He was a former student of Tokyo Jujutsu High where he was an underclassman of Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto. Nanami initially left Jujutsu High after graduating to become a salaryman, but returned four years later to continue working as a jujutsu sorcerer.

While working as a Jujutsu High sorcerer, Nanami was ranked grade 1 and operated primarily out of the Tokyo campus. With Satoru's introduction, he also became a close mentor to Yuji Itadori.

Nanami is a tall, well-built man with blonde hair styled with a neat part. Nanami has very thin eyebrows as well as small hazel-colored eyes that are usually covered by his signature sunglasses, which don't have arms that wrap around the ears.

Befitting a former office worker, Nanami is usually fully dressed in a formal business suit. His usual suit consists of a blue dress shirt underneath a tan blazer with matching slacks and light shoes. Attached to his dress shirt, there is a holster that sheaths Nanami's blunt sword, hidden by the back of his blazer. He also sports a necktie that shares the same dotted pattern as the bandages around his blunt sword.

After graduating from Jujutsu High and working for corporate, Nanami wore a vertical striped jacket over a white button-down shirt and dark-colored tie with white dots all over it, vertical striped pants, and black shoes. As a student, Nanami wore a normal Jujutsu High uniform. His hair was styled slightly differently when he was younger.

During the Shibuya Incident, Nanami loses an eye fighting Dagon and he is later left in a horrific state with half of his flesh and his entire hair burnt off on the left side after encountering Jogo.

Nanami is a very wise and reserved kind of man, often appearing so calm and indifferent that he comes off as stoic and aloof. He seems like the kind of person who's too serious about his work, but Nanami just knows how to separate sentimentalism from service. He's blunt and straight to the point in most conversations and doesn't care for impractical optimism[3] or questions left open to interpretation.[4]

Additionally, Nanami is very avid and quick to express his irritation, either on his face or verbally with his words. Nanami is often very impatient. He hates working overtime and is very serious about not going a single minute over what's required of him.[5]

Beneath his tough exterior, Nanami is actually quite sociable and doesn't mind intelligent conversations.[6] He's practical and overly serious to an almost comedic point on occasion as well. He claims he only became a jujutsu sorcerer because it's slightly less idiotic than being a salaryman. In the role of one of Yuji's mentors, Nanami is a very big contrast to Satoru, who is far more outspoken and easy-going.[7] Yuji and Satoru describe Nanami as "gloomy" and the former didn't believe they would get along at first.[8]

When it comes to his personal mindset, Nanami is an average workaholic weighed down by the mundane day-to-day practices of life that stole his youth from him. Nanami doesn't believe age or life-threatening experience propels one into adulthood. Instead, he feels that it's the build-up of all the little inconveniences throughout life that transform people into adults.[9] He initially treated Yuji as a child because he didn't want to see him abandon his youth for the sake of being a jujutsu sorcerer. However, Yuji eventually proved himself and forced Nanami to acknowledge him.[10]

Nanami knows being a jujutsu sorcerer is a dangerous and demanding job for crazy people, and so he has a hard time respecting people in the profession. Even though Nanami and Satoru are longtime friends, the former claims he doesn't respect Satoru despite their mutual trust in one another.[11] He returned to being a sorcerer from the life of a salaryman because he never felt truly appreciated and didn't believe his work had any significant impact on anyone. In contrast, work as a sorcerer allowed him to build up small bits of appreciation from innocent people. For Nanami, this was more than enough to allow him to live without regrets.[12]

Yuji is a young man of average height and appears to have a slender build when wearing baggy clothing, but actually has a lean and muscular physique. He also has relatively large light brown eyes and spiky pink hair (brownish blonde in the manga) that's styled in an undercut fashion. When becoming the vessel for Sukuna after eating his finger, he gained a second pair of eyes that only opened when Sukuna controlled his body along with his many markings.

At the start of the series, Yuji wore a light-colored hooded jacket, high-cuffed black pants, and white shoes. However, in the anime, his pants were denim, and his shoes were bright red. When Yuji enrolled in Tokyo Jujutsu High, he began wearing his version of the uniform; a black long sleeve shirt resembling a gakuran over a red hoodie, black pants, and red shoes.

He gains a noticeable scar between his two eyes and a smaller scar on his left labial commissure of the mouth during the Shibuya Incident. Both scars were caused by Mahito; the first one was inflicted when the cursed spirit surprise-attacked him with a blade on his fist,[4] and the second one was inflicted when Yuji battled him after his transformation.[5]

He lost the second pair of eyes that only open when Sukuna controls his body along with his many markings after the latter transferred to Megumi as his new vessel.[6] Yuji also lost his left pinky finger when Sukuna ripped off and fed it to Megumi.[7] Yuji later lost his left ring finger so Yuta Okkotsu could copy Sukuna's technique.[8]

Yuji is a fair person who truly cares for not only his comrades but anyone he views as people with their own wills, despite how deep or shallow his connection to them is. He highly commends "the value of life," and to this end, he will ensure that others receive a "proper death". Because of this, he believes that it is morally unethical for him to take another human life, and tries to avoid any possibility of doing so unless as a last resort.

He is also not without his more energetic and outgoing traits. Such as his frequent comedic moments where he was seen alongside Nobara gushing about Tokyo and his eagerness to train with Satoru Gojo or even when entertaining both Junpei Yoshino and his mother. Yuji is also highly passionate whenever he's focused on achieving certain goals and being quite stubborn when confronted about them, such as when Masamichi Yaga questioned why Yuji wanted to become a sorcerer. He is also quite naïve due to his inexperience in the world of cursed spirits and jujutsu sorcerers, but is shown to be a quick learner, capable of adapting to his surroundings and picking up how to use cursed energy quickly.

Although usually composed, good-natured and friendly, Yuji can be angered quickly in the face of pure malice after witnessing firsthand the cruelty that curses were capable of, particularly Mahito's inhuman exploitation of Junpei. Yuji felt so profoundly disgusted that he felt a genuine desire to kill for the first time in his life and has a very intense yet focused hatred towards the cursed spirit.

One of Yuji's defining traits is his willingness to sacrifice himself for others, triggered by his grandfather's last words to him to die surrounded by others. When he and Megumi were under the threat of being killed by a curse, Yuji impulsively swallowed Sukuna's finger to exorcise the curse and save them despite having met Megumi for the first time on that day.

However, Yuji's initial belief's on the value of a life as well as "proper deaths" have been greatly challenged overtime, primarily during the Shibuya Incident. When Sukuna took possession of Yuji's body after forced consumption of his fingers, he proceeded to massacre countless innocents within the city save for Megumi, leaving Yuji traumatized from the event, wishing he was dead and blaming himself for all the deaths. This would only worsen as Yuji later witnessed Mahito kill Kento Nanami and mortally wound Nobara, making Yuji lose hope in being able to save anyone, before Aoi Todo's intervention. Eventually after a grueling battle between Mahito, Yuji spoke to the curse spirit admitting that they were alike in a way while also declaring pure and utter hatred for the latter, promising to kill Mahito: no matter how much time passed or how many times he is reborn, again and again with no need to justify his actions as anything but his nature, believing that some reasoning for his actions would eventually be found centuries after his own death.

Following the incident in Shibuya, Yuji's disposition grew more solemn than before, as well as developing a changed ideology; that his purpose was to be a "cog" in the machine that functions to exorcise curses.[9] While still wanting to save and help people, Yuji was racked with unshakable guilt and felt that he deserved death, to the point he would even willingly take blame for the crimes committed by Sukuna when prompted by an enemy, only slightly relenting when speaking with Hiromi Higuruma. While Yuji still retained most of his traits of being good-natured and friendly, he would act closed off and abrasive towards someone unfamiliar as seen with Hana Kurusu, admitting that this behavior stemmed from fear of the latter replacing Nobara before apologizing later.

Yuji's deep seated and focused hatred returned when Sukuna enacted on a plan to transfer his soul into Megumi, taking full possession of his friend's body. Yuji fought furiously against the King of Curses but to avail as he escaped off, with Yuji vowing that he'd "eat anything in order to kill Sukuna" as well as freeing Megumi. This would span into a month long preparation where Yuji trained himself to get strong enough to face him, culminating in the raid on the King of Curses.

Despite everything, Yuji felt a sense of pity for Sukuna, to a point where he locked the sorcerer in his domain to wander through his childhood memories. During their conversation, Yuji's ideology changed once more, explaining that he initially believed life was about fulfilling a set role and that dying fulfilling that role would be a proper death. But this was no longer the case to Yuji, who now believed that simply living a mundane life would still produce value in the fragments of memories continuing to exist after death. Yuji further stated that the way someone died did not matter, but rather it was the idea of someone treating those lives as worthless that he could not forgive and that human beings are not tools born with a predetermined role, be it good or bad, and that there is no fundamental answer as to what makes one human, while also reaffirming that if Sukuna will not release Megumi's soul, then he will kill him.[10]

Toge is a slim young man with light skin, greyish-purple eyes, and mid-length straight hair. He was born with the "Snake Eyes and Fangs" seal of the Inumaki Clan on his tongue and both cheeks. His Jujutsu High uniform was tailored with this in mind, fitted with a high collar with a zipper that covers his mouth. While training, Toge wears a zipped-up dark collared shirt underneath a white short sleeve shirt with athletic pants and shoes. During the Shibuya Incident, Toge lost his left arm due to Sukuna's attack.[3]

In 2017, Toge had shorter, spiky hair similar to Yuji's that eventually grew into his new hairstyle in 2018. He had a similar uniform, but he had a light-tan (light blue in the movie) turtleneck sweater that he wore underneath a normal student uniform.

In the anime adaptation, Toge has platinum blonde hair with purple-colored eyes and his uniform is tinted royal blue.

Toge's initial impression leads people to believe he's a quiet, aloof, and distant person. Even after knowing him for two months, Yuta was still unfamiliar with Toge and intimidated by him. However, Toge is actually a highly insightful and caring individual. He is intelligent and understands the dangers of overwhelming power.

Toge chooses not to speak in a conventional manner in order to protect people from his Cursed Speech. Speaking in rice ball ingredients makes it difficult to understand him, but many of his friends have taken the time to learn how to communicate with him.

Toge cares deeply for his allies and shows it through his protectiveness over them. Despite not being the aggressive type, Toge confronted Yuta upon meeting him because Rika's presence threatened Maki and Panda. Toge eventually learned that Yuta is also cursed with powers he couldn't quite handle and tried to open up to him. Before going out on their first mission together, Toge tried to help with Yuta's anxiety with a high five but only ended up frightening him more.[4] During that mission, Toge showed Yuta through his actions that he's a kind person who puts looking out for his comrades above all else. His resolve inspired the extremely timid Yuta to help him fight, surprising Toge.[5] After working together to achieve victory, Toge and Yuta were finally able to connect and shared a proper high five.[6]

Toge has matured even more as a second-year student, although Megumi Fushiguro doesn't sincerely respect him because he messes around with Panda a lot. In serious situations, Toge has also displayed brave level-headedness, and the ability to remain calm even when things are desperate. As a senpai, Toge is just as protective over his younger peers as he is of Yuta, Maki, and Panda. After only just meeting Yuji at the start of the Goodwill Event, Toge still wanted to help save the first year from the Kyoto Team's attempted assassination.[7] Even when confronted by Hanami while he was alone, Toge never panicked throughout their battle. Toge's protective nature led him to focus on keeping Megumi and Noritoshi from being injured by Hanami at any cost to himself. Even after his throat gave out, Toge still stepped back up to fight Hanami in order to keep Megumi from fighting a special grade alone.[8]

Maki is a young woman above average height with an athletic build. She has small green eyes (amber in the anime) and long black hair (dark green in the anime) normally tied into a short ponytail. She had fringes of hair over her forehead with smaller strands framing her cheeks and used to sport different pairs of glasses that allowed her to see curses.

While still a member of the Zenin clan, Maki wore a traditional outfit, a white yukata, and a black hakama.[5] Maki's original Jujutsu High student uniform consisted of the traditional long sleeve jacket with a pencil skirt. As a first-year student, she wore thick, long tan socks and black shoes with her uniform. As a second-year, Maki wore a different pair of glasses and sported black leggings instead of socks.[6][7]

While training for the Goodwill Event, Maki wore a purple tracksuit a black jersey with tan shorts over her leggings.[8] While training Yuta, Maki wore the same top with darker shorts. Her casual clothes consisted of a cyan hoodie over a white shirt with pink horizontal stripes, white shorts over black leggings, and white boots.[9]

Maki was severely burned by Jogo's flames during the Shibuya Incident. This has left a great deal of her body covered in scars from the severe burns, running all the way up and down both her arms and the sides of her face. Her hair now only reaches just past her ears, which may be a result of her cutting it, or it may have been partially or entirely burned off.

Maki decided to alter her uniform to keep her arms mostly uncovered. She wore a sleeveless, turtle-neck, black shirt underneath a large cape attached by two Jujutsu High pins on each side. The shirt tucked into a large brown belt with a gold buckle, tied around the waist of tight black pants. The glasses she paired with this outfit were circular but Maki's right eye was covered in bandages from the burns.[10]

During her conflict with the Zenin Clan, Maki lost her right eye altogether and now has a scar where it was sliced by her father's katana. She ditched the cape but sports mostly the same outfit, with the same sleeveless shirt paired with the same pants, belt, and shoes.[11] By the time she entered the Culling Game, Maki reclaimed her cape and had her right eye completely healed.[12]

Maki is a very headstrong and straightforward person who tries to drive herself forward without needing anyone else's help. She is extremely strong-willed, capable, and motivated to escape the standards that have been set for her by people who are supposed to be her family. In a sorcerer clan, strong cursed techniques are everything, but Maki didn't even have the cursed energy required to see curses. In addition, women in sorcerer clans have to stand out even more, leading Maki to be constantly severely mistreated and abused by the Zenin Clan. Despite feeling cursed by her own blood, Maki motivates herself to become a strong sorcerer regardless of what her family thinks. She wants to break apart the foundation of their way of life and reject it completely.

Maki can come off as rather cold at times, even to her classmates. She is the leader type, but Maki is very tough on others and tends to be impatient and hot-tempered. She doesn't seem to respect Satoru Gojo as a person due to his very goofy attitude. Even as her teacher, Maki often refers to him as a moron.[13] Maki trained Yuta harshly because she wanted to see him get stronger and fight beside her, something she would later impart on Megumi Fushiguro and Nobara Kugisaki as their senior. She's taught them all highly advanced situational awareness and how to properly wield a variety of weapons, even if they had to get beaten up a lot in the process.[14]

Maki was initially very mean to Yuta because of his shy attitude and openly told him he had no business attending Jujutsu High as a cursed human.[15] While working on a mission together, they learned to understand one another, and she realized they weren't so different. She asked Yuta why he enrolled in the school, and he told her that he wanted it to be acceptable for him to live. Maki told him that's what Jujutsu High is all about and encouraged him to use his curse to save people.[16] She has repressed many of her emotions to maintain her trademark tough exterior. She hasn't expressed romantic interest in anyone, and Panda enjoyed teasing her about this as first-years. When it came to Yuta, this embarrassed Maki enough to lash out at Panda in a temper.[17]

Nobara is slim fair-skinned young woman with neck-length light brown hair that reaches to her neck that is styled with bangs that cover the right side of her forehead in an asymmetrical bob-cut. She has orange eyes, long eyelashes and thin eyebrows of the same color. After sustaining a near-fatal injury from Mahito, she now has an eyepatch covering her left eye.[4]

Nobara's Jujutsu High uniform consists of a dark blue gakuran-style top (a button-down jacket) and a long matching skirt that reaches to just above her knees. She also sports black pantyhose and brown shoes along with her signature brown belt that holds her tools for jujutsu.

As someone who enjoys dressing up, Nobara has several different outfits. She didn't have a tracksuit prior to enrolling at Jujutsu High and bought one shortly after. It included a white and blue hoodie accented with a flower pattern, black tights, and white shoes.[

Nobara is a confident and brash young woman with an unshakable character. More than anything, she is determined to stay true to herself no matter what.[6] She takes great pride in being both photogenic and a strong fighter, refusing to let anyone change her core.[7]

Initially, Nobara can appear to be a very obnoxious and arrogant person. She first introduced herself to Yuji and Megumi by expressing how inferior they were and argued with Yuji for the greater part of their first mission together.[8] Despite her abrasive attitude, Nobara is actually an incredibly caring and dutiful person, but would never let most people see that side of her. After fighting alongside each other on several missions, Yuji and Megumi grew to become Nobara's closest allies. She and Yuji are the two class clowns among the first years who typically annoy Megumi for a laugh any chance they get. Although she likes to pretend that she doesn't like the boys, Nobara was upset after Yuji's death following the Detention Center incident, even shedding a tear upon his revival and demanding an apology from him.[9]

Even from a young age, Nobara was outspoken and different from everyone else in her small town.[10] She felt everyone was crazy for worse, with the exception of her grandmother who raised her and taught her sorcery.[1] As a result, she was determined to trade the small countryside to the big city. She was only ever drawn to outsiders who moved into the village like Fumi and Saori, especially the latter. She looked up to Saori to a great degree and was disheartened when she was forced out of the neighborhood. Saori leaving made Nobara want to escape the village more and aspired to meet Saori again one day. Before attending Jujutsu High with her grandmother's hard-earned support, Nobara made a promise to Fumi that the three of them would reunite in Tokyo.[11]

Staying true to who she is, Nobara carries herself confidently as a jujutsu sorcerer. Whenever her classmates tend to be decisive, she is willing to take charge even if they don't like it. While they are prone to panic in some situations, she is able to remain relatively level-headed regardless of what is happening. Nobara loves joking around in civil situations and is a huge trash talker in combative ones, no matter who it is.[12] Among all her peers, she looks up to Maki Zenin in particular. She loves the way Maki carries herself and admires her strength as someone fighting against the oppression of her own family.[13]

Panda has the appearance of a fully-grown giant panda. He stands much taller than his classmates with his bear-shaped frame and sometimes dons clothing. He has been shown to wear armbands, scarves, and jackets at times. After his fight with Hajime Kashimo that resulted in the destruction of his body and his other two cores, Panda now appears much smaller than his original size, resembling a baby panda.[4]

Panda is generally a very upbeat and calm individual with his own sense of humor. When he was younger, he spoke in an extremely proper form more akin to a computer but as time passed, Panda has developed his own unique personality. Panda sees humans as strange creatures and doesn't strive to be like them, while still respecting them as a species.[5]

Panda is very sarcastic at times and tends to make light of every situation. Even while Mechamaru was trying to kill him Panda continued to poke fun at his fellow cursed corpse. It took Mechamaru nearly destroying Panda's body for him to even become "kind of mad". Following their fight, Panda was able to sympathize with Kokichi Muta and even promised to visit his real body one day.

Megumi is a relatively tall and slim young man with fair skin and green eyes (dark-blue eyes in the anime adaptation) that slant upwards to denote his harsher and colder personality. He has uniquely styled black hair with long spikes that jut out in every direction around his head, resembling a sea-urchin (according to Kinji Hakari). When first meeting Megumi, Gojo noted the resemblance to his father Toji, and Megumi himself has similar facial features and the same green eyes as his late father.

Following the Shinjuku Showdown Arc and his separation from Sukuna, Megumi acquires three facial scars corresponding with the eyes of Sukuna's incarnated form: one scar below Megumi's left eye, and two scars where the eyes of Sukuna's "second face" were.[5]

Megumi typically wears a standard Jujutsu High uniform with a dark blue jacket over a long-sleeved white dress shirt. His uniform pants match his jacket and only reach to just above his shins. He wears long black socks that cover his exposed ankles and finishes his outfit with low-top brown shoes. He also has a blue tracksuit for training.

In middle school, Megumi wore the Saitama Urami East Junior High uniform, which consisted of a tan jacket over a white dress shirt with black pants and white sneakers. While sneaking inside the Gachinko Fight Club, Megumi wore a black hoodie and matching pants with his normal shoes as a disguise.

Megumi is a very outwardly stoic, aloof, and calculating individual. He usually has a neutral facial expression that he rarely changes, making it appear as if he takes every situation seriously. This contrasts heavily with Yuji, Nobara, and Gojo's outgoing and goofy personalities, which often annoy Megumi. He's easily irritated and Yuji has noted that Megumi seems like he's always slightly angry.[6]

Megumi's resolute sternness even as a child. Megumi's resolute sternness even as a child.

Even as a child, Megumi was very stern, earnest, and thoughtful, to the point where Gojo questioned if he was a first-grader when they first met. He didn't care for his father and assumed he and Tsumiki were abandoned. Megumi understood his situation with the Zenin Clan and stood firm that he would only cooperate if Tsumiki were happy as well.[7]

Megumi has always been annoyed by Gojo's attitude ever since they first met. He didn't care for the idea of becoming a sorcerer and became more jaded about it over time. By the time Megumi reached middle school, his impersonal attitude had fully set in. He thought becoming a jujutsu sorcerer would be pointless as he didn't see himself as someone who saves others. Uninterested in making friends, Megumi believed the basis of human interaction was avoiding violating someone else's dignity. He would beat up school bullies who ignored this rule to feed their egos, gaining a reputation as the biggest troublemaker in school as a result. Tsumiki wanted him to stop getting in fights but Megumi didn't listen and wrote her off.

Megumi hated bad people with unearned pride just as much as he did good people who were too merciful to the former. Tsumiki was a perfect example of a good person to Megumi but he would disagree with and get annoyed with her anytime she scolded him for hurting someone bad. After Tsumiki fell into an unending sleep, Megumi realized he was acting immaturely. He knew Tsumiki was choosing to protect and that she believed that his lack of forgiveness was his way of showing kindness. After Tsumiki was cursed, Megumi was filled with regret and found the drive to become a sorcerer so he could save her.[8]

As a jujutsu sorcerer, Megumi developed his sense of justice and is steadfast in his interpretation of right and wrong. Like his mentor, Megumi refuses to be influenced by traditions within the jujutsu world. Yuji should've been executed when they first met but Megumi ignored the rules and made a personal request to Gojo to protect him.[9]

"I'm not a hero, I'm a jujutsu sorcerer "I'm not a hero, I'm a jujutsu sorcerer."

Megumi was unsure for a while if he made the correct decision. He was uncomfortable with the idea that he was someone who saved people. He believed saving the wrong people could hurt innocent people in the future, which made saving Yuji a contradictory decision.[10] Megumi cast aside his uncertainty when he came face-to-face with the consequences of his choice, Sukuna. He decided the only thing that's fair in life is how it's unfair to everyone and sorcerers can be a cog in karmic retribution. He wants more good people like Tsumiki to receive fairness and that's why he'll save people unfairly. Megumi realized that he didn't save Yuji because it was logical, he did it because he didn't want to see a good person die. He knows it was a selfish and emotional decision but he's okay with that because he's not a hero, he's a jujutsu sorcerer. That is why Megumi never regretted saving Yuji, not even for a second.[11]

Megumi and Nobara vow to get stronger for their fallen friend. Megumi and Nobara vow to get stronger for their fallen friend.

Being unable to save Yuji or Tadashi Okazaki during the detention center incident left Megumi pondering his role as a sorcerer. He asked Maki what kind of people she wanted to save, only to be annoyed by her response.[12] Megumi and Nobara weren't exactly friends at this point, but Yuji's premature demise brought them closer together. It was the first time either of them lost a friend in battle and they decided to honor him by participating in the Goodwill Event to honor their fallen friend, swearing to get stronger no matter what.[13]

In response to Aoi Todo's classic "what kind of girls do you like?" question, Megumi said that he doesn't have a preference as long as his partner is compassionate. He was trying to de-escalate the situation but this only irritated Todo due to their opposing personalities. When it came to blows, despite being outmatched, Megumi never backed down.[14] Megumi didn't hold any resentment toward Todo and was uninterested in a rematch, which disappointed Panda.[15]

You were a curse user.. Did you know? Well idk why you ask me.

You first noticed something was.. Off you started seeing strange things, twisted shapes things that didn’t seem real. At first you ignored it later you found out it was called curses.

Gojo was casually eating sweets walking through Tokyo with Nanami and his students Yuji, Toge, Maki, Nobara, Panda and Megumi on a routine curse check.

Everything was normal until Gojo suddenly stopped. His Six Eyes has sensed something.. unusual (You)

Gojo stops in his tracks, a lollipop still in his mouth. “Hm. I guess we have a visitor.” He says turning to the group with a grin.

Yuji looked at Gojo with a thinking look clearly confused “There’s a curse?”

Nanami just looked at Yuji and explained. With his usual calm tone. “It’s not a curse it’s a cursed user. A curse is manifested of negative emotions, while a curse user is a human who utilizes cursed energy for their own purposes.” He explained looking at Yuji

Megumi, hands in his pocket nodded slightly “Simpler said: A curse is made from negative emotions while a curse user who controls that cursed energy for their own use.” He said looking at Yuji and Nobara

Toge: “Shake” Toge said with a small nod.

There you where walking through Tokyo without a clue that you’d been spotted. A powerful curse user.

jjk

You were a curse user.. Did you know? Well idk why you ask me.

You first noticed something was.. Off you started seeing strange things, twisted shapes things that didn’t seem real. At first you ignored it later you found out it was called curses.

Gojo was casually eating sweets walking through Tokyo with Nanami and his students Yuji, Toge, Maki, Nobara, Panda and Megumi on a routine curse check.

Everything was normal until Gojo suddenly stopped. His Six Eyes has sensed something.. unusual (You)

Gojo stops in his tracks, a lollipop still in his mouth. “Hm. I guess we have a visitor.” He says turning to the group with a grin.

Yuji looked at Gojo with a thinking look clearly confused “There’s a curse?”

Nanami just looked at Yuji and explained. With his usual calm tone. “It’s not a curse it’s a cursed user. A curse is manifested of negative emotions, while a curse user is a human who utilizes cursed energy for their own purposes.” He explained looking at Yuji
