Yuuji Itadori (虎杖 悠仁)

Yuuji Itadori is one of the main protagonists of Jujutsu Kaisen. Known for his extraordinary physical strength even before encountering any curses, Yuuji becomes a central figure in the world of Jujutsu due to his unique status as the vessel of Ryomen Sukuna, one of the most powerful curses.

Appearance

Yuuji Itadori is a robust young man with a striking appearance, characterised by his light brown eyes and distinct hair colour—blonde in the manga and a combination of black and pink in the anime. Standing at 173 cm and weighing 80 kg, his athletic build is well-suited for his role as a Jujutsu sorcerer. His school uniform is typically worn in a casual manner, reflecting his laid-back personality.

Personality

Yuuji possesses a remarkably compassionate and determined personality. He is driven by a strong moral code instilled in him by his grandfather, striving to ensure that others have a "proper death." This desire makes him exceptionally empathetic towards others, often putting their needs and safety before his own. Despite the immense burden he carries as Sukuna's vessel, Yuuji maintains a cheerful and optimistic demeanour, bringing light to even the darkest situations.

Yuuji's interactions with friends and foes alike are often marked by his straightforward and earnest nature, making him both a reliable friend and a formidable foe. His bravery and willingness to face danger head-on are tempered by a realistic sense of his abilities and limitations, showcasing a maturity that belies his age.

Abilities

Superhuman Strength: Even before he became a Jujutsu sorcerer, Yuuji displayed extraordinary physical strength. He is capable of throwing a shot put ball with ease, which normally requires specialized training, indicating his high level of physical ability.

Black Flash: Yuuji learns to use Black Flash, a technique that significantly amplifies the impact of his attacks by applying cursed energy within an extremely short span during a physical hit. This technique creates spatial distortion and is a testament to Yuuji’s growing proficiency with cursed energy.

Divergent Fist: One of Yuuji's signature techniques early in the series is the Divergent Fist. This attack involves Yuuji first striking with a physical punch, followed by a burst of cursed energy that is delayed until after the punch lands. The double impact of the physical blow and the cursed energy makes this technique particularly powerful.
