8 Jujutsu Kaisen Characters Who End Up Being Surprisingly Weak

Despite how imposing they seemed, these Jujutsu Kaisen characters turned out to be surprisingly weak.

It helps that the characters in this series are iconic and compel viewers to root for the heroes and boo the villains in a simple yet riveting shonen structure that works incredibly well. The attractive and memorable character designs ensure that most of the people in Jujutsu Kaisen will leave a lasting impression on fans, but certain individuals are arguably much more beloved than others.

Megumi Fushiguro

The Ten Shadows Technique Makes Him A Force To Be Reckoned With

• Debut: “Ryomen Sukuna” (Episode 1 of Jujutsu Kaisen)

Megumi was in danger of becoming a forgettable character, only for his Ten Shadows Technique to come along and prove just how strong he is. The fact that he can summon a powerful entity like Mahoraga is no joke, even if he may be incapable of controlling this fiend.

His stoic personality eventually won over fans, and his strengths were finally highlighted after he had become the designated punching bag in the series for a while. Being as beloved as he is, it’s no surprise that countless JJK fans can’t wait to see the direction he goes in the later arcs.

Nobara Kugisaki

Rounds Off The Trio With A Compelling Personality And A Unique Cursed Technique

• Debut: “For Myself” (Episode 2 of Jujutsu Kaisen)

The problems that plagued Sakura in the three-man group of Naruto don’t affect Nobara at all. Not only can she handle herself in combat, but her snappy personality makes her quite entertaining.

The fate that befell her during the Shibuya Incident was hard to watch, but fans have all the confidence in the world that she’ll come back stronger than ever. Hopefully, she won’t be written off after having such a major impact as one of Jujutsu Kaisen‘s best characters.

Yuji Itadori

The Protagonist Slowly Grows Into A Powerful Cursed Technique User

• Debut: “Ryomen Sukuna” (Episode 1 of Jujutsu Kaisen)

Yuji Itadori is the protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen, acquiring the ability to manipulate cursed energy after ingesting Sukuna’s finger. This put him on a collision course with this legendary sorcerer, training as much as he could to control his power.

Special Grade curses are exceptionally powerful, and they can make short work of the best sorcerers.

Itadori can feel like a bit of a blank slate at times, but he is able to remain compelling courtesy of some great story moments and epic victories. The side characters may be way more compelling, but that should take nothing away from Itadori’s allure as a character who deserves to be a protagonist of this compelling battle shonen.

Kento Nanami

A Stylish Jujutsu Sorcerer With The Compelling Ratio Technique Who Was Taken Too Soon

• Debut: “Boring” (Episode 8 of Jujutsu Kaisen)

One of the most iconic Jujutsu Kaisen characters of all time, Nanami made a strong debut and served as a thorn in Mahito’s side time and time again. His Ratio Technique seemed simple, but it could unleash major damage with his mastery.

It’s a shame that all the techniques in the world didn’t stop him from becoming Mahito’s victim near the end of the Shibuya Incident. As traumatizing as this moment was for Yuji, he used it as motivation to push himself to new heights and finally take out Mahito after a grueling battle.

Toge Inumaki

His Cursed Speech Coupled With Some Hilarious One-Liners Make Him Very Entertaining

• Debut: “Fearsome Womb, Part 2” (Episode 5 of Jujutsu Kaisen)

For a character who doesn’t say a word, it’s amazing to see just how iconic Inumaki has become. By uttering simple words mentioning various types of food, he has wormed his way into the hearts of viewers with his endearing nature.

It helps that the whole reason why Inumaki uses a limited vocabulary is because of his Cursed Speech. During a serious fight, he can issue commands that opponents are forced to obey, although it does lead to major strain on his vocal cords.

Yuta Okkotsu

A Shy, Scared Boy Transforms Into One Of The Best Jujutsu Sorcerers Of All Time

No one expected Yuta to become one of the strongest characters in the JJK series. He wanted to get rid of Rika’s curse, only to realize that he was the one who cursed his childhood love, eventually coming to understand how to control these powers.

By showing the full power of his Copy Technique, he was able to take out the fearsome Suguru Geto, which is no mean feat. This moment alone cemented him as one of the best Jujutsu Kaisen characters, and later arcs will make his legendary powers plain for everyone to see.

2

Aoi Todo

A Hilariously Powerful Character Who Forms A Compelling Bond With Tojo

• Debut: “Boring” (Episode 8 of Jujutsu Kaisen)

For a character who seemed like one of the most chaotic and evil jujutsu sorcerers in the show, it turned out that Todo was nothing more than a goofball with a surprisingly tasteful love for beautiful women and immense physical strength that worked in tandem with his Quirk.

A short period of training with Todo was all it took for Yuji to become adept at using Black Flash in combat. Their friendship has deepened ever since, with Todo eventually becoming one of the most entertaining characters in the series.

1

Satoru Gojo

The Most Compelling Character In The Series By A Country Mile

• Debut: “Ryomen Sukuna” (Episode 1 of Jujutsu Kaisen)

Satoru Gojo is a name that strikes fear in the hearts of cursed spirits, making it clear why sealing him was such an important task for them to undertake. Their devilish plans would’ve never succeeded if Gojo were around, with his absence making the Shibuya Incident that much deadlier.

His patented Six Eyes Technique and jovial personality make him a force to be reckoned with, and countless fans can’t help but love how charismatic he is. It’s easy to see why he’s considered by many to be the most beloved character in Jujutsu Kaisen by a country mile.
