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.[19] Yuji is capable of performing Black Flash seven times in a row and has used it a total of eighteen times. Advertisement Cursed Restrictions Binding Vows Binding Vow (Anime) Yuji had a binding vow with {{char}}. The King of Curses agreed to revive the boy after his apparent death under two conditions: ① Yuji would allow {{char}} to take over his body for one minute when the latter chants "Enchain" (契けい闊かつ, Keikatsu?) and ② he would forget about the agreement. Yuji initially opposed the binding vow, making {{char}} promise that he wouldn't kill or hurt anyone during that minute. The boy still disagreed with the terms and instead had a battle against the King of Curses, where he'd allow the agreement to occur if he lost. {{char}} effortlessly defeated Yuji, forcing him into accepting the binding vow.[20] Cursed Techniques Innate Techniques Yuji erupts his blood on {{char}}'s face Blood Manipulation (赤せっ血けつ操そう術じゅつ, Sekketsu Sōjutsu?): After absorbing Cursed Womb: Death Painting No. 4-9, Yuji was engraved with Blood Manipulation, the inherited technique of the Kamo Clan.[21] Using this innate technique, Yuji can manipulate his own blood.

She is currently a second-year at Tokyo Jujutsu High. Daughter of Ogi Zenin and the elder twin sister of Mai Zenin, Maki was born in the Zenin Clan. Born a non-sorcerer in one of the Big Three Sorcerer Families, Maki was constantly mistreated and felt compelled to expel herself from the Zenin clan. She aspires to be a great jujutsu sorcerer to spite her family, working closely with her friends Panda and Toge Inumaki, while also serving as a role model to the first-year students.

She has small golden eyes 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.[4] 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.[5][6] While training for the Goodwill Event, Maki wore a purple tracksuit a black jersey with tan shorts over her leggings.[7] While training Yuta Okkotsu, 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.[8] Maki as a first-year student at Tokyo Jujutsu High.

Maki's initial appearance as a second-year. Post Shibuya 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. And overtime from training while she recovered from her injuries developed a more robust physique than before. 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.[9] During her conflict with the Zenin Family, 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.[10] By the time she entered the Culling Game, Maki reclaimed her cape and had her right eye completely healed.[11] Maki's appearance immediately following the Shibuya Incident (gray).

Personality Maki Zenin in class (Anime) Maki annoyed with Gojo's over-the-top cheerfulness. 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 couldn't even see curses. 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 their life and reject it completely. Maki and Yuta eaten by a curse (Anime) Maki yelling at Yuta for getting them in a troublesome situation. 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. Maki doesn't seem to respect Satoru Gojo as a person due to his very goofy attitude. Even as her teacher and senior, Maki often refers to him as a moron. She 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.[12] While working on a mission together, Maki and Yuta 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.[13] Maki asks Yuta why he's at Jujutsu High (Anime) Maki encouraging Yuta to use his curse to help people. Maki trained Yuta harshly because she wants to see him get stronger and fight beside her. Something she would later impart on to Megumi and Nobara as their senpai. 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 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.[15] Maki flustered (Anime) "Don't go thinking you've been recognized or something." Following their first encounter with Suguru Geto, Maki and Yuta talked about why Geto referred to her as the "failure of the Zenin clan". Maki initially played it off as if being born a non-sorcerer gave her a perfect excuse to leave because she hated the clan for a variety of other reasons. When Yuta inquired as to why Maki chooses to be a sorcerer and Maki said it's because she's got a bad personality and wants to be a grade 1 sorcerer to spite the Zenin clan. Yuta admires Maki's strength and revealed he wants to be like her, strong and resilient. Yuta awkwardly offered to help her stick it to the Zenin clan but called him an idiot and said it was something she needed to do alone. She had spent so long rejecting the need to feel accepted that she became flustered that Yuta kindly recognized her strength. Maki left the conversation to gain her composure and then reminded herself that she should not go feeling like she's finally been recognized.[16] Maki embarrassed after being a cold-hearted demon (Anime) Maki embarrassed after accidentally portraying herself as a "cold-hearted demon". As a second-year student, Maki carries an aura of leadership and guides her juniors appropriately. She gravitates toward Megumi Fushiguro because he's also an ex-member of the Zenin clan and they get along well. She's comfortable with teasing him even if it's harsh and this can make her come off as a "cold-hearted demon" at times. When she found Megumi sulking with Nobara Kugisaki, she jokingly asked them if they had just attended a funeral. However, this was ironically after their classmate, Yuji Itadori's death. This made Maki feel really guilty and as usual, she lashed out at Panda in a rage for not informing her sooner. Even after the accident, Maki was still unsure if taking it easy on the first-year students would've even been a kindness.[17] Maki is someone with a chip on her shoulder and is always determined to prove herself. For the Kyoto Goodwill Event, she needed strong teammates to help showcase her abilities on a public stage where she couldn't be denied. She encouraged Megumi and Nobara to get stronger for their fallen ally and figured it was the perfect opportunity to put her juniors in their place.[18] Maki and Megumi annoying each other (Anime) Maki annoyed with Megumi's attitude. Maki doesn't appear to be concerned with the moral aspects of being a sorcerer and is more focused on personal goals. While training, Megumi asked Maki what kind of people she wanted to save as a sorcerer but she doesn't think about that kind of stuff. This clearly annoyed Megumi which in turn angered Maki. She decided to compromise and told Megumi they could talk about it if he improved his skills in hand-to-hand combat enough to challenge her.[19] As a child, Maki promised her twin sister Mai that she would stay with her forever. However, as Maki grew older she realized she couldn't live under the thumb of the oppressive family while Mai was content with doing so. Leaving Mai behind led the only person Maki cared about in the clan to resent her as well. Mai was punished for Maki leaving by getting pressured into becoming a sorcerer even though she wanted to live a normal life. She grew to hate Maki by the time they were both in Jujutsu High.[20] Maki tells Nobara why she wants to be a sorcerer (Anime) "What if someone who's looked down on like me became a great sorcerer?" Mai treated Maki as if she was worthless because she lacked significant cursed energy. This is the same type of ridicule most of the Zenin clan threw at Maki all her life, so it didn't appear to bother Maki all that much. In the stance where Mai and Nobara got in a fight, Maki told her twin that they were both worthless because Mai isn't that talented herself, only able to charge weapons with cursed energy. This revelation surprised Nobara, who asked the same question Yuta did, why would Maki want to become a sorcerer. Maki simply told her that she wanted to prove her family wrong by becoming a great sorcerer. Nobara expressed her profound respect but Maki didn't make a big deal out of it.[21] During the planning phase of the Goodwill Event, Maki overheard Nobara telling Yuji about her circumstances and how they have to win to prove the Zenin clan wrong. At the time, it annoyed her, but only because Maki doesn't want the others to worry about her. Recalling her classmate's acknowledgment of her ability, later on, made Maki smile.[22] Maki leaving Mai and the Zenin clan behind (Anime) Maki couldn't stay with Mai at the clan because she would've hated herself. Maki didn't actively try to repair her relationship with Mai and engaged in their sibling rivalry to a degree. After defeating Mai, Maki is asked to explain why she didn't stay at the bottom and fall down the hole with her sister. This saddened Maki, who replied that she would've hated herself and apologized to Mai for leaving. Maki walked away without a clear resolution and continued the event, leaving their relationship still fractured.[23] In spite of their troubled past, Maki was able to operate cordially on missions with other members of the Zenin clan. She shared a squad with the head of the clan during the Shibuya Incident. Naobito Zenin was acting very lazy in Shibuya so Maki took over the leadership role to help guide Nobara and Akari Nitta. She would tell them to ignore him whenever he would ask for anything off mission.[24] Shibuya Station Inokashira Line Gate (Anime) Maki and Naobito stirring up tension on their squad. Maki and Naobito eventually split off and met up with Kento Nanami, and were quick to stir up tension with each other. Naobito mentioned that he wouldn't mind if Satoru stay sealed and Maki told him to leave Shibuya if he wasn't going to be any help. Naobito argued that Maki should be the one to leave and Nanami agreed that the fighting in Shibuya had escalated to a degree far too dangerous for her. She ignored this and claimed she'd be more help than a drunk like Naobito, causing Nanami to become more annoyed with him for drinking on the job.[25] However, this was before Maki ever saw Naobito's capabilities as a sorcerer. She and Nanami were taken back by Naobito's speed and Maki even begrudgingly admitted that Naobito saved her life against Dagon. This was humiliating for Maki but she continued to fight in sync alongside Naobito and Nanami in an attempt to exorcise the cursed spirit. Playful Cloud (Anime) "You know, you're really such a cocky brat!" - Maki thanking Megumi. Maki doesn't take well to taunts and is quick to insult anyone back regardless of who they are. Inside his domain, Dagon called Maki the weakest there. After surviving a hard hit that surely injured her, Maki responded by boldly taunting Dagon and confronting the special grade directly again. Maki told the "octopus" that if he's going to call her weak, then he should've killed in her with that one hit. Maki was also annoyed with herself for not taking Playful Cloud out earlier in preparation for tougher battles instead of waiting for permission. She was happy to see Megumi when he invaded the domain and gave her Playful Cloud. She smiled and her way of expressing gratitude to her junior was calling Megumi a cocky brat.[27] Maki telling Megumi he's head of the Zenin Family Maki asking Megumi to become clan head because she's can't create a home for Mai yet. Maki was severely scarred and injured as a result of the fighting in Shibuya, but she's not the type to ever make a big deal out of it. Yuta reunited with her after some time and expressed his concern but Maki claimed she was fine. When Yuki acknowledged what happened and commended Maki's toughness, Maki simply replied that it was not like she was going for it.[28] Even in a team of unlikely allies compiled to combat the Culling Game, Maki's leadership skills helped everyone keep in line with their roles for rescuing Tsumiki Fushiguro. She was the one who suggested that Yuji and Megumi recruit Hakari despite his bad attitude because their group is shorthanded and needs all the help they can get.[29] Maki mourning her sister Maki forced to let go of Mai just moments after reconciling. When the opportunity presented itself for Maki to push for head of the clan, she couldn't bring herself to do so. With Naobito's death, Megumi became head of the Zenin clan due to a special clause. Megumi didn't want to accept the position but Maki implored him to do it. She tried to convince him of all the luxuries that came with being clan, but typical Megumi refused and asked her to do it instead. Irritated, Maki told him no one would accept her and started yelling, listing off all the reasons Megumi would make a decent head before adding barely at the end. Megumi refused still and argued acceptance wouldn't matter but Maki wasn't just good enough to them, but good enough for herself either. Maki believed she still wasn't able to make the clan somewhere Mai could feel she belonged.[30] Maki's complicated relationship with her family was on full display when she returned to the Zenin clan to collect cursed tools. Despite having the clan head's permission, Maki was still constantly harassed on her way there. She ignored both Naoya and her mother's harsh words and pressed on to the vault. Maki's own father conspired against her, attempting to execute Megumi along with the twins. Maki fought against him bravely and tried to save Mai, but was defeated and gravely injured, leaving Maki to be the one saved by Mai. Maki stands on top of the slaughtered Kukuru Unit Maki ruthlessly executes her promise to destroy the clan. Maki was forced to say goodbye to her sister too soon, marking a massive change in her personality. Inside a dream-like space, Mai explained that she was going to sacrifice herself while distancing herself from Maki. During that conversation, Maki listened to Mai's explanation but she was constantly trying to close that distance. She didn't want to let go of Mai, before they ever truly got a chance to reconcile, but was forced to accept this was the end. In exchange for Mai giving everything to ensure Maki reached her potential, Maki promised to destroy everything. Maki was devastated by her sister's death but had no time to mourn and had to carry out Mai's request immediately, killing their father in cold blood. Immediately after, Maki was ready to continue and looked to the last thing her sister left for her, a sword. With a cold and remorseless disposition, Maki looked to the sword and told Mai "lets get started.".[31] Maki says her heart was taken Maki's cold and merciless disposition towards her clan after losing Mai. Maki ruthlessly annihilated the entire Zenin clan without any expression of emotion. She slaughtered every member of the Hei and the Kukuri unit present that day without a hint of remorse. The only words she exchanged with anyone were with Naoya when he asked if she had a human heart. This was after she decapitated Jinichi and tossed his severed head into a pond. Her reply was simply: "No... it was taken from me.".[32] He also tried to call Maki an imposter during their fight but Maki interrupted him by smashing his face with a punch. Then she taunted him by asking him if he could repeat that statement.[33] In the midst of her ruthless tirade, Maki still wanted to believe there was good left in her family. Before killing her own mother, Maki attempted to see if her mom was trying to warn her about Ogi's trap back when she harassed Maki upon her return. However, Maki was assuming the best of her mother and appeared disappointed when she didn't get a fortunate answer. Maki's own mother fell way to her vengeful wrath and even after that, Maki left Mai's body with Momo Nishimiya and killed off the rest of the clan members who weren't present that day.[34] Maki reaches her best "I'm at my best!" At this point, Maki had grown exponentially since enrolling at Jujutsu High and Noritoshi could tell that she changed at a glance.[35] However, she grew content being more like her peers, and was unable to maximize her potential. She lacked the perception same Hagane Daido possessed.

As a first-year student, Yuta defeated Suguru Geto and freed Rika's soul. He left Japan to train with Miguel in Africa in his second year until after the Shibuya Incident. He returned to Japan and fought alongside Jujutsu High sorcerers to combat the schemes of Kenjaku and the King of Curses. By 2035, Yuta had become the head of the Gojo Clan.[6] He eventually married Maki Zenin and had two grandchildren, Tsurugi and Yuka Okkotsu. Both Yuta and Maki lived to old age, passing away by 2080.

As a first-year, Yuta's body language made it obvious that he was under a lot of stress. His posture was very unconfident, and he still has dark circles under his eyelids from a lack of sleep. As a second-year student, Yuta's hair has grown longer and he wears it in a more relaxed style instead of a spiky one. At his old school, Yuta wore a suit for his uniform. He sported a long-sleeve shirt that stops at his forearms or a black t-shirt and dark green pants for casual wear. After transferring to Tokyo Jujutsu High, Yuta received a specialized uniform. Yuta has a loose white uniform jacket with sleeves that stop at his forearms. He also wears slender black pants that tuck into white sneakers that match his jacket. Yuta also often carries his katana case on his back. Following his temporary brain transfer into Satoru Gojo's body from copying Kenjaku's technique, Yuta has a stitched scar circling his head.[7] Yuta as a first-year student. Yuta as a first-year student. Yuta in the manga (gray). Yuta in the manga (gray). Personality Yuta wants confidence (Anime) "I want to believe that it's okay to keep living." Yuta was a very timid and lonely boy who was bullied a lot while growing up. Due to Rika haunting much of his early life, Yuta was unable to connect with other people and has lost all confidence in himself. This makes it difficult for Yuta to interact with others, as they often scare him without meaning to, or he's just too shy to speak to them. Even so, Yuta genuinely cared about other people and decided to isolate himself from them even if it means remaining alone. Maki Zenin called Yuta out for being a moody kid who's lived his entire life without goals.[8] He acknowledged that this was true and used her advice to gain a resolve for being a jujutsu sorcerer. This helps Yuta realize that deep down, he truly desires the confidence to feel like he belongs.[9] Yuta and Toge high five (Anime) Yuta learning to understand and become friends with others. While his timid nature stays intact, Yuta slowly becomes more social and interacts with others normally. Even after early signs of improvement, Yuta still struggled to understand someone like Toge Inumaki. He was initially scared of Toge[10] until he realized how kind of a person he truly is and made an effort to establish a social connection.[11] Yuta threatens to kill Geto (Anime) Yuta's rage unleashed by the sight of his injured friends. Gaining friends helps Yuta gain confidence in himself and establish the goal to help set Rika free. He felt responsible for her turning into a curse in the first place[12] and worked extremely hard to find a way to help her. He pushed himself during training and took all his friends' and mentors' words to heart, showing a more determined side of himself.[13] At his core, Yuta wants to become someone who can help keep others out of danger. Against Suguru Geto, Yuta showed the darkest side of himself. Geto hurt Yuta's only friends, and the young man was more than willing to kill him for it.[14] Yuta's rage allowed him to even command Rika's power at will. He was willing to sacrifice his life to use Rika to kill Geto to avenge his friends, the only people who give him the confidence to continue living.[15] Yuta declares he will kill Yuji Itadori (Anime) Yuta adopts an apathetic persona in order to deceive others into thinking he wants to kill Yuji Itadori. When Yuta returned to Jujutsu High after time away overseas, he was accompanied by a new Rika and it appeared as if he was lost in his darkness. He agreed to kill Gojo's other pupil, Yuji Itadori for the higher-ups and claimed it was revenge for cutting off Toge's arm.[16] Yuta carried a deathly serious and cold persona who was straight to the point. He attempted to kill Yuji before so much as exchanging words and then apologized while committing the act.[17] However, this was all an act to help protect Yuji from the higher-ups. Yuta had to act a certain way to make it believable and he healed Yuji before the first-year died permanently. Even though Yuta has never met Yuji, he went out of his way to deceive authority and help Yuji because Gojo asked him to. Yuji is important to people who are precious to Yuta and that was more than enough reason for him to help. He also sympathizes with Yuji because he was in the exact same situation, up for execution bearing a power he could not hope to contain. Yuta doesn't blame Yuji for {{char}}'s actions. [18] Yuji wakes up in front of Yuta Yuta sympathizes with Yuji's situation and protects him in Gojo's place. Without the false guise of a cold killer, Yuta is still a naturally friendly person who has developed a lot as a person. He's much more social and is less timid than he used to be. When Gojo visited Yuta in Africa, the outspoken teacher was surprised his student was even telling jokes.[19] Yuta assimilated comfortably back into interacting with his peers and dedicated himself to helping them. He agreed to help Megumi rescue his sister from the Culling Game. He also did his diligence as a senpai and agreed to stop {{char}} should he ever take control of Yuji's body again. Upon reuniting with Maki, Yuta was excited to see her and expressed concern about her injuries. Yuta resolves to score 400 points Due to his absence in Shibuya, Yuta shoulders the responsibility of stopping Kenjaku alone. When it appeared as if Master Tengen's barrier had rejected their group, Yuta was concerned and quick to suggest they turn back because Megumi's sister didn't have time to waste.[20] Once Tengen allowed them inside and provided crucial information, Yuta agreed to enter the Culling Game right away by himself. He also suggested they get Kinji Hakari's help despite his moodiness and was modest enough to say that Hakari's strength sometimes surpasses his own.[21] During the Culling Game, Yuta displayed his selflessness as well as his propensity to be ruthless. He had no gripes about killing enemy sorcerers to obtain the necessary points to help save Tsumiki. Yuta killed at least seven sorcerers before cutting down Dhruv Lakdawalla and he targeted the latter simply because he was a danger to the public. He believed that any potential danger couldn't be allowed to leave the colony and only took out the other players when it was completely necessary. Takako Uro annoyed with Yuta Yuta trying to understand why someone with great strength would act so desperately for their own sake. Not only did Yuta use his strength to score points, but he used it to protect people as well. He protected a group of civilians caught up in the Culling Game, serving as their guardian throughout the game despite the risk to himself. While trying to move them to safety, Yuta noticed a mother and her daughter struggling to go on. He insisted on carrying their belongings himself and changed his mind about moving the group, deciding they should take a break inside Dhruv's former territory where they'd be safe instead. When other civilians outside his group were threatened by Kurourushi's cockroaches, Yuta didn't hesitate to try his best to save them.[22] Yuta holds some guilt about being unable to help his comrades in Shibuya. He's aware that everyone reached their limit after the Shibuya Incident and felt as if he needed to shoulder the responsibility to handle the Culling Game all on his own. This also extends to the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons where Yuta was unable to finish off Geto. Yuta doesn't want his beloved sensei to have to kill his best friend again. As a result, Yuta resolved not only to score four hundred points all on his own, but to kill Kenjaku himself as well.[23] Yuta says he's blessed "Because I'm blessed." Upon encountering Takako Uro and Ryu Ishigori, two players who are dangerous but not necessarily evil, Yuta tried to reason with them. In Uro's case, Yuta tried to understand why she would kill so desperately for her own gain. He expressed that he understands why the powerless get desperate but doesn't get why someone strong like Uro would seek out pointless battles. Yuta only gained friends recently but he believes fighting to protect someone or something is the only reason to do so.[24] Uro rejected Yuta due to his lineage, but he still tried to help her understand that regardless of what the Fujiwara did to her, living selfishly will only get someone so far.[25] As for Ryu, the incarnated sorcerer expressed over four hundred years of yearning for a proper battle, and his sincerity managed to melt Yuta's heart. Although Yuta will likely never find any meaning in fighting, he indulged Ryu and gave him the fight he always desired.[26] Yuta spared both Ryu and Uro and ignored their ungrateful insults after the fight. When Ryu asked about Yuta's conversations with Uro, he explained that they could never come to terms simply because he's blessed. Yuta knows how fortunate he is to have friends and the power to protect them. Ryu suggested Yuta might've killed them if not for their points and while Yuta didn't deny it, he told Ryu to just be grateful to his comrades in the end.[27] Yuta has shown that he is not above using morally questionable and unethical means if the situation calls for it. This was seen during the preparations for the eventual raid on {{char}}, where Yuta proposed taking over the body of Satoru Gojo with Kenjaku's cursed technique should he be killed. When some of his allies opposed the idea due to Yuta's importance, Yuta grew frustrated with their refusal to use unethical tactics to fight against {{char}}. He argued that they were inconsiderate of Gojo's constant burden of having to be a "monster", and declared that he will become a monster in order to win.[28] Yuta reiterated the same sentiment to Gojo personally while accompanying the latter to the Jujutsu Headquarters to kill the higher-ups, telling his teacher that he does not have to be a monster alone. Abilities and Powers Overview Everyone notices Yuta is cursed (Anime) Yuta's presence when he was completely unable to control Rika. Overall Skill Level: Yuta is one of only four special grade sorcerers recognized by Jujutsu High.[29] While being haunted by Rika's vengeful spirit, Yuta was immediately registered as a special grade due to Rika's immense power, making him the most recent person to receive the ranking. Yuta was completely unaware of how to fight or control his cursed energy when Satoru threw him into his first mission. He relied on Maki until they were swallowed by a curse and it came down to Yuta to rescue everyone inside. Yuta was able to tap into his emotions and fully manifest Rika, ripping the other curse apart and freeing everyone. Yuta barely carried everyone outside the barrier but he used what little physical strength and stamina he had to finish the mission.[30] Yuta cuts the Hapina curse (Anime) After training with Maki, Yuta becomes more capable with a katana. This made Yuta painfully aware of how weak he was, so Maki trained him on the basics of armed combat for three months before his next assignment. He was never able to land a hit on Maki but always trained hard to improve himself and started to move a lot better. However, in his second mission, an exorcism with Toge, Yuta still found himself relying on his classmate's skill. When a semi-grade 1 curse ambushed them, Toge was injured saving Yuta. Yuta stepped up on his own without relying on Rika and helped Toge exorcise it. Yuta's training allowed him to avoid most of the cursed spirit's attacks and he even landed a counterattack. It was just a shallow slash, however, due to the toughness of the curse and Yuta's poor cursed energy control at the time.[31] Apparently, during the 2017 Goodwill Event, Yuta completely dominated all of the Kyoto Jujutsu High competitors, including Aoi Todo. There is no record of him fully manifesting Rika at that time but Maki noted she was still around and was likely the reason Yuta won the event.[32] Yuta and Rika fighting together (Anime) Yuta converting emotions into strength while fighting alongside Rika. Continuing training throughout his tenure at Jujutsu High, Yuta continued to grow stronger and built a solid foundation as a sorcerer. On December 24, 2017, Suguru Geto targeted Yuta and injured his friends while invading the school. This set Yuta off, unleashing extraordinary levels of cursed energy throughout through his body. This resulted in a mighty increase of Yuta's physical abilities and fine-tuned of his senses.[33] Alongside Rika, Yuta was able to match Geto one-on-one. He revealed not only the ability to use the extremely rare reverse cursed technique but the capacity to copy other cursed techniques like cursed speech as well. This led Geto to claim he was glad that he attacked Yuta before the student learned to properly wield Rika's power. Yuta was only able to defeat Geto by vowing to give his life in exchange for removing the limiters on Rika's boundless power, ultimately overpowering Maximum: Uzumaki and Tamamo-no-Mae Incarnate.[34] The major difference in their battle was that Yuta was willing to give his life to win while the cursed manipulator didn't have the vast majority of his curses, with over four thousand serving the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons.[35] Yuta Okkotsu vs. Suguru Geto (Anime) Yuta and Rika fighting in sync to combat the extraordinarily dangerous Geto. Following his victory, Yuta discovered he was the one who cursed Rika when they were young, not the other way around. He is a descendant of Michizane Sugawara, one of the greatest sorcerers to ever live, making Yuta a distant relative of the Gojo clan. Yuta severed the bond tying servant to master and Rika didn't desire to punish him, so the curse was broken, freeing Orimoto's soul.[36] Yuta originally thought that after Rika passed away he wouldn't be able to be a sorcerer anymore.[37] Kenjaku believes that Yuta's vast cursed energy and his ability to copy cursed techniques were tied to detaining his loved one's soul.[38] However, these are incorrect assumptions and Satoru Gojo has stated on more than one occasion that Yuta still has the potential to surpass him.[39][40] Yuta saves a civilian from a Cursed Spirit (Anime) Yuta taking out cursed spirits on his own upon returning to action. By March of 2018, only three months after the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, Yuta regained his rank as a special grade sorcerer. He is a prodigy who boasts incredible power and unusual abilities second only to Satoru Gojo.[41] Satoru forced Geto's comrade, Miguel, to train Yuta. Miguel mentored Yuta overseas while they searched for the Black Rope. By the time he returned to Tokyo following the Shibuya Incident, Yuta was able to dispatch large cursed spirits without much effort.[42] Upon arriving to execute {{char}}'s vessel, Yuta was recognized as a major threat to everyone. Yuji, Choso, and Naoya, three strong jujutsu users, were all briefly stricken by Yuta's unsettling cursed energy. Naoya, who especially prides himself on his abilities, was quick to ally himself with Yuta in order to avoid any potential conflict. Choso, another special grade, told Yuji to run away immediately because he could feel Yuta's overwhelming strength is on a scale similar to Satoru Gojo's, ensuring death.[43] Yuta attacks Yuji with his katana Yuta's overwhelming offense leaving Yuji with no choice but to dodge. Following Choso's advice to get away from Yuta, Yuji attempted to flee but Yuta was able to run him down and engage his target one-on-one. Due to what occurred in Shibuya, Yuji was holding himself back, and Yuta was easily able to overpower him.[44] Yuta displayed more overall cursed energy then their sensei as well as reinforcement techniques far beyond an elite sorcerer. Yuji's normal reinforcement was no match for the amount Yuta was enhancing his own body with, leading the former to evade attacks most of the fight.[45] Following his victory, Yuta found Choso after he defeated Naoya and knocked him unconscious with a single blow.[46] In addition to mastering close combat skills, Yuta has become a proficient user of reverse cursed technique. After executing Yuji, Yuta instantly restarted his heart by outputting positive energy into him. His ability to output positive energy at will is something even Satoru is unable to do.[47][48] Yuta Okkotsu vs. Kurourushi Yuta overpowering a special grade curse without using the full extent of his abilities. Yuta only showcased a small portion of his abilities against Yuji and yet his very presence intimidated the likes of Naoya and Choso. He displayed the full extent of his powers during the Culling Game, where Yuta was matched up against some of the strongest players the deadly battle royal had to offer. He effortlessly dispatched Dhruv Lakdawalla, an incarnated sorcerer who once conquered Japan, single-handedly shattering the four-way deadlock in the Sendai Colony.[49] Yuta likely could've also made short work of Kurourushi if he had chosen to use reverse cursed technique from the beginning. However, Yuta handicapped himself to avoid displaying his abilities to those observing him and still managed to overpower the cockroach curse in multiple exchanges.[50] Yuta was eventually cornered and nearly defeated but he ultimately exorcised the curse using a calculated maneuver that blasted Kurourushi's head with positive energy.[51] Yuta and Rika attacking Takako Uro Yuta using his full power to fight alongside Rika. Yuta put up fierce resistance against Takako Uro and Ryu Ishigori directly after defeating Kurourushi. He used reverse cursed technique and his cursed energy manipulation to survive their attacks but could hardly go on the offensive against their c Inumaki: Toge Inumaki (狗いぬ巻まき棘とげ, Inumaki Toge?) is a supporting character in Jujutsu Kaisen and one of the main protagonists of its prequel, Jujutsu Kaisen 0: Jujutsu High. He is a descendant of the Inumaki clan and has inherited the clan's cursed speech, which he's developed his own unique speech pattern for in order to avoid cursing others. Toge is currently a semi-grade 1 jujutsu sorcerer and second-year at Tokyo Jujutsu High alongside his classmates Yuta, Maki, and Panda.

He was born with the "Snake 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 {{char}}'s attack.[3] In 2017, Toge had shorter, spiky hair similar to Yuji's that eventually grew into his new 2018 hairstyle. 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 as a first-year student. Toge as a first-year student. Personality Toge Inumaki introduced (Anime) Toge's calm and silent demeanor. 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. Yuta and Toge high five (Anime) Toge's kindness reaches Yuta. 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 steps up for Megumi (Anime) Despite being injuried, Toge steps up to protect Megumi. Toge has matured even more as a second-year student, although Megumi 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] Abilities and Powers Overview Toge Inumaki's impact on the event (Anime) "No matter where he is, he's a pain!" Overall Skill Level: As a member of the Inumaki clan who has inherited cursed speech, Toge is a respected and highly capable semi-grade 1 sorcerer. He was ranked grade 2 as a first year student and was the only one among his peers who could take on solo missions. At that time, Geto also believed Toge was blessed with great potential. His skills have only grown since then and while not currently on the level of Yuta, Hakari, or Todo, Toge is still among the most skilled students at Jujutsu High. Megumi, Toge & Noritoshi vs. Hanami (Anime) Toge's team mounting a defense using his ability to immobilize their special grade opponent. Toge is highly intelligent and very capable in battle, displayed by his strong grasp over the strengths and weaknesses of cursed speech and how to effectively apply it in every situation. During the Goodwill Event, the rival Kyoto team considered Toge to be one of their biggest threats during the competition. While they were aware of how to counter cursed speech, the uncertainty of when Toge could show up and use it made it difficult for some of the Kyoto students to focus on their own battles.[9] Megumi and Noritoshi only survived a drawn-out chase with Hanami because Toge was the only one with an ability that could immobilize the special grade. During the Shibuya Incident, Toge was tasked with saving civilians and eliminating transfigured humans. He saved numerous non-sorcerers and cleared out the entire Dogenzaka district during the middle stages of the incident. Physical Prowess High Mobility: While not quite as fast as freaks of nature like Yuji or Maki, Toge is a very athletic individual. He is quick on his feet and very nimble, able to evade Hanami's attacks and lead him on a long chase through the battlefield until he could find his comrades. Toge was also one of the only students in the baseball game who took a base clean after batting and remained a threat to steal. Even Yuji was surprised by Toge's speed, which Maki also endorsed. High Endurance: Toge's cursed speech requires a high amount of stamina to use. It causes extreme throat irritation that can cause Toge to cough up blood if overused. Despite this, Toge continues fighting even after reaching his limit and can still unleash commands against higher level opponents. Cursed Technique Inherited Technique Inumaki Snake Eyes and Fangs (Anime) Cursed Speech (呪じゅ言ごん, Jugon?): Toge possesses the "Snake Eyes and Fangs" seal of the Inumaki clan on his tongue and around both sides of his mouth. This allows Toge to infuse his words with cursed energy to improve the spirit of his commands, forcing all who hear it to obey. This power can target living beings and inorganic objects. The more demanding the command, the more of a toll it pays on Toge's body. Weaker curses can be exorcised with powerful commands without backlash, but even less powerful words will consume more energy and stamina when used against opponents with more cursed energy than Toge. Communication devices and voice amplifiers, such as cellphones and bullhorns, do not disrupt Toge's technique, allowing him to project his words and their effects over a longer distance if need be. "Explode" causes Toge's target to violently explode. He used it to effortlessly exorcise a swarm of weak curses.[10][11] Toge commands a swarm of curses to explode (Anime) "Get Twisted" or "Twist" forces an appendage of a curse to twist to the point of complete disfigurement. He used this in an attempt to exorcise a semi-grade 1 curse, though it avoids fatal damage.[12][11] Toge using Get Twisted (Anime) "Get Crushed" causes the target to implode until they're flattened out. Toge used this to finish off the aforementioned semi-grade 1.[13][11] Toge using Get Crushed on a Curse (Anime) "Crumble Away" or "Plummet" creates a small field of intensely heavy gravity that crushes the target until they're violently sent underground. Toge used this in an attempt to kill Suguru Geto.[14][11] Toge using Crumble Away (Anime) "Don't Move" or "Stop" completely immobilizes Toge's target or any of their attacks.[11] He first used this command to stop Aoi Todo[15] and then repeatedly commanded Hanami to stop in their fight.[16] He later used it again in Shibuya to stop the transfigured humans,[17] and in Shinjuku to immobilize {{char}}.[18] Cursed Speech (Anime) "Sleep" instantly sends whoever hears the command into a deep sleep. Toge used this to incapacitate Kasumi Miwa over the phone.[19][11] Toge orders Kasumi to sleep (Anime) "Return" can forcibly dispel a Shikigami. He used this command to return Megumi's Divine Dog after using it for tracking purposes.[20] Toge using Return on Divine Dog (Anime) "Run Away" forces Inumaki's target to flee the area. He used this to command his allies to run away from Hanami's approach.[21][11] Toge telling Megumi and Noritoshi to run away (Anime) "Blast Away" is a powerful command that creates an explosive impact of great concussive force strong enough to send a special grade curse crashing up the side of a temple.[22][11] Nobara: Nobara Kugisaki (釘くぎ崎さき野の薔ば薇ら, Kugisaki Nobara?) is the tritagonist of the Jujutsu Kaisen series. She is a first-year student and grade 3 jujutsu sorcerer at Tokyo Jujutsu High studying under Satoru Gojo alongside Yuji and Megumi.

She has mid-length brown hair that reaches to her neck that is styled with bangs that cover the right side of her forehead. Nobara 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] 00:00 41:20 Nobara's jujutsu school 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. The tracksuit included a white and blue hoodie accented with a flower pattern, black tights, and white shoes.[5] Nobara as a child. Nobara as a child. Nobara's eyepatch. Nobara's eyepatch. Nobara in the manga (gray). Nobara in the manga (gray). Personality Nobara staying true to herself (Anime) "It's to stay true to myself." Nobara is a confident and brash young woman with an unshakable character. More than anything, Nobara 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 influence her.[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. Nobara saying goodbye to Fumi (Anime) Nobara leaves her village behind but promises to reunite with Fumi and Saori someday. Even from a young age, Nobara was outspoken and different from everyone else in her small town.[9] She felt everyone was crazy and was determined to trade the small countryside to the big city. Nobara 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, Nobara made a promise to Fumi that the three of them would reunite in Tokyo.[10] Staying true to who she is, Nobara carries herself confidently as a jujutsu sorcerer. Whenever Yuji and Megumi tend to be decisive, Nobara is willing to take charge even if the boys don't like it. While they're prone to panic in some situations, Nobara is able to remain relatively level-headed regardless of what's happening. Nobara loves joking around in civil situations and is a huge trash talker in combative ones, no matter who it is. Among all her peers, Nobara 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 their own family.[11] Tokyo Team meeting (Anime) Nobara punishing Yuji for dying and resurrecting without being considerate of her. Nobara and Yuji are the two class clowns among the first years that typically annoy Megumi to 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.[12] She even shed a tear upon his revival and demanded an apology from him. Momo Nishimiya insulted Yuji during the Goodwill Event while trying to justify Mai Zenin's undesirable attitude, annoying Nobara. Nobara dislikes Mai, which upset Momo and caused her to monologue about the gender-based discrimination in the Zenin Clan. This only served to annoy Nobara, who couldn't care less about any sentiments based in "boys versus girls". Like Saori, Maki is a good person despite the circumstances that surround her while Mai is not. Nobara doesn't believe people are excused just because they come from a difficult background. She openly rejected Momo and told her to consider the kind of person Yuji was before condemning him, citing that life isn't just a job.[13] Nobara using Straw Doll Technique against the Death Paintings (Anime) "Good. She's plenty crazy." Upon first enrolling at Jujutsu High, Satoru Gojo was unsure how a girl from the countryside would fair against gruesome-looking cursed spirits. Satoru believes it takes someone to be virtually insane to voluntarily be a jujutsu sorcerer or else they'll quit quickly. Despite her distaste for crazy people, Nobara has proved she is plenty crazy herself.[14] She passed Satoru's test with flying colors and didn't hesitate to inflict pain on herself during the battle with the Death Paintings, Eso and Kechizu.[15] In order to counter Eso's cursed technique, Nobara willingly stabbed herself with nails and smiled while doing it. She appeared to take pleasure in outwitting her opponents and didn't hesitate to injure herself further in order to ensure victory and her own survival. Together, she and Yuji were victorious and ended up killing both brothers. Although Yuji was guilt-ridden over killing the brothers, Nobara was relatively unfazed. She admitted that she expected killing came with the job of being a jujutsu sorcerer. Noticing that Yuji was acting strange, Nobara comforted him in her own way by claiming that they were both accomplices in the murder.[16] The dynamic between Yuji, Megumi, and Nobara (Anime) Yuji's fond memories of Nobara and their dynamic with Megumi. Nobara has a high sense of duty as a jujutsu sorcerer and is a prideful fighter. During the Shibuya Incident, Nobara's pride was hurt by her near defeat at the hands of Haruta Shigemo. After being rescued by Kento Nanami, Nobara wanted to help rescue Satoru from being sealed and redeem herself. However, Nanami refused to let her and ordered her to wait to be rescued.[17] Nobara ignored Nanami's warning because she couldn't bring herself to leave the city while all her allies were still fighting.[18] Upon encountering Mahito's double soon afterward, Nobara admitted she didn't have much to show for October 31st and believed beating him would be a solid contribution.[19] Nobara remained confident in her strategy and managed to injure Mahito's soul, forcing him to retreat. Nobara chased him and attempted to exorcise the curse. This overconfidence ultimately proved to be Nobara's downfall. Nobara hit in the face with idle Transfiguration "It wasn't so bad!" Mahito switched places with his double while Nobara's guard was down against his hands, letting him score a direct hit to her face with Idle Transfiguration.[20] Realizing her time was likely at an end, Nobara took a moment to recall her past life in the village. She used to believe that crazy people like those villagers did nothing but step on other people's lives. However, after meeting all the wild and crazy sorcerers at Jujutsu High, Nobara changed her mind. During this exchange, Yuji watches Nobara with extreme worry and horror. In what could have been her last moments, Nobara smiled at Yuji and asked him to tell everyone that it wasn't so bad in the end.[21] Following her recovery on December 24, Nobara appeared to still be in high spirits after being brought up to speed about the raid against {{char}}, happily taking the opportunity to help defeat the sorcerer with Resonance. Upon seeing Yuji again, the two got up to old habits by attempting to surprise Megumi with the fact she was alive, later making up for lost time with him after.[22] Abilities and Powers Resonance (Anime) Nobara exorcising a curse on her first mission. Overall Skill Level: Nobara is ranked as a grade 3 jujutsu sorcerer by Jujutsu High. This is mostly due to her status as a young first-year student and inexperience working as a sorcerer. Nobara has showcased numerous times the capability to contend with jujutsu users ranked leagues above in terms of grade. Coming into school, Nobara had a solid understanding of how to exorcise curses with her innate technique.[23] She also had the mental fortitude to handle the job but lacked physical ability. While fighting in the Eishu Detention Center, Nobara defended herself adequately until she ran out of nails to fight with.[24] Nobara vs. Momo (Anime) Improvements in physical strength allowed Nobara to compensate for her disadvantage against Momo. Afterward, Maki took Nobara under her wing and trained her to improve her physical prowess. The training included heavy stamina conditioning and getting used to getting knocked down by Panda.[25] By the time of the Goodwill Event, Nobara showcased she was in much better shape as a close-combat fighter. In Nobara's fight with Momo, the Kyoto third year had the advantage of flying above Nobara on her broom. Nobara eventually figured out a way to outmaneuver Momo by using the environment to her advantage. Nobara was able to last long enough in that fight due to Maki and Panda's training. She was knocked down several times by gusts of cursed energy wind, but Nobara endured until she figured out a way to counterattack.[26] Nobara using Resonance to stun Eso and Kechizu (Anime) Nobara embracing self-inflicting pain necessary to ensure victory. Despite ultimately being eliminated from the Goodwill Event, Nobara has since demonstrated the potential to combat special grade curses. Alongside Yuji, Nobara was able
