Megumi Fushiguro’s Appearance

■Who is Megumi Fushiguro
Megumi Fushiguro is a first-year student at Tokyo Jujutsu High in the popular anime series "Jujutsu Kaisen." A descendant of the prestigious Zenin clan, Megumi's early life was marked by abandonment from his parents, leaving him to live with his adoptive sister, Tsumiki Fushiguro. With the intervention of Satoru Gojo, Megumi embarked on his journey as a Jujutsu Sorcerer. Currently ranked as a Grade 2 Sorcerer, his exceptional skills have earned him the rare privilege of undertaking solo missions, a feat unusual for a first-year student.
Megumi wields the rare and powerful Ten Shadows Technique (Tokusa no Kage Bōjutsu), which allows him to summon and control animal-shaped Shikigami through shadows. This inherited technique is unique even among Zenin clan members, highlighting his extraordinary talent. Due to this, Megumi, who has distanced himself from the Zenin clan, is regarded as a potential successor to its leadership.

■A Fan-Favorite in Jujutsu Kaisen
Megumi is one of the most popular characters in "Jujutsu Kaisen," securing first place in the second and third official character popularity polls conducted by Weekly Shonen Jump. His reserved yet deeply compassionate nature, combined with compelling backstories, has resonated with fans, making him one of the most beloved figures in the series.

■Hairstyle
Megumi Fushiguro's trademark is his spiky black hair. In the series, he is often nicknamed "sea urchin head" or "pincushion," but Megumi himself doesn’t seem to pay much attention to these remarks.

■Facial Features
Megumi's facial features are well-defined, with long eyelashes being a particularly notable characteristic. In the anime, close-up shots of his face often earn him the reputation of having a "beautiful face," with the director himself commenting that "Megumi is a male character who possesses beauty."

■Expressions and Atmosphere
Megumi typically has a cool demeanor and rarely shows his emotions, often appearing unsmiling or aloof. However, deep down, he harbors a strong sense of care for his friends and his stepsister, occasionally showing soft expressions or smiles that provide comfort to those around him. During battles, his serious expressions and piercing gaze stand out, visually conveying his determination and resolve.

■Fashion
Megumi is always seen wearing the Jujutsu High uniform. Its simple and functional design complements his calm personality. The uniform primarily features black tones and is designed for ease of movement in active scenarios. Additionally, pairing the uniform with a turtleneck adds warmth and practicality for colder conditions.

Megumi Fushiguro’s Abilities

Megumi Fushiguro is a Jujutsu Sorcerer with immense potential, inheriting the prestigious lineage of the Zenin clan. His abilities revolve around the Ten Shadows Technique (Tokusa no Kage Bōjutsu), which is highly valued for its versatility and tactical advantages. Megumi's strategic use of this technique has earned him recognition as a prodigious sorcerer.

■Ten Shadows Technique
This inherited technique allows Megumi to summon animal-shaped Shikigami using shadows as a medium. By channeling cursed energy into shadow puppets formed with his hands, he materializes and commands up to ten unique Shikigami, each with distinct capabilities that enhance his combat tactics.

Summonable Shikigami:

Divine Dogs (White, Black, Totality): Known for keen senses, they specialize in cursed energy detection and agile attacks. "Totality" inherits abilities from the destroyed "White" and serves as Megumi's primary Shikigami.
Nue: A large bird imbued with electricity, effective for aerial assaults and defensive barriers in confined spaces.
Great Serpent: A giant snake ideal for ambushes, though destroyed during his battle with Sukuna in the juvenile detention center.
Toad: A versatile frog-like Shikigami, useful for binding targets with its long tongue and aiding in movement or rescue operations.
Max Elephant: A small elephant capable of unleashing torrents of water for wide-range attacks, albeit with high cursed energy consumption.
Rabbit Escape: Summons a swarm of rabbits, low in attack power but excellent for diversion and confusion.
Well’s Unknown Abyss: An enhanced Shikigami combining "Nue" and "Toad." It takes the form of a winged frog and is used primarily for support and disruption.
Eight-Handled Sword Divergent Sila Divine General Mahoraga: The most powerful Shikigami, capable of adapting to any technique and possessing formidable regenerative abilities. Summoning it involves extreme risk, often requiring a life-or-death sacrifice.

■The Ritual of Subjugation (Chobuku no Gi)
To control new Shikigami, Megumi must complete a specific ritual that involves defeating the target Shikigami under set conditions. The process allows the sorcerer to fully claim the Shikigami's power.

Ritual Rules and Mechanics:
1. Initiation Conditions:
- The sorcerer summons the target Shikigami using existing Shikigami as combat aids.
- The ritual must be performed alone, although summoned Shikigami can assist.

2. Completion Conditions:
- The ritual ends when either:
- The Shikigami is defeated: The sorcerer gains control over it.
- The sorcerer or all allies become incapacitated: The ritual fails, and the Shikigami remains uncontrolled.

3. Suspended Death Mechanism:
- Participants in the ritual enter a state of suspended death upon serious injury, preventing the ritual from ending prematurely. However, failure to meet the ritual's conditions results in death.

4. Third-Party Interference:
- Only the sorcerer may subdue the Shikigami. If a third party defeats it, the ritual becomes void.

■Domain Expansion: Chimera Shadow Garden
Despite being a first-year, Megumi has mastered a Domain Expansion named Chimera Shadow Garden (Kangō An’eitei). This domain liquefies shadows to create a space where Shikigami can be summoned infinitely. The liquid shadows enable Megumi to move freely within the domain and drag opponents into the shadows, making it a potent tactical tool.

Initially incomplete, the domain lacked a fully enclosed barrier and had defensive vulnerabilities. However, Megumi later utilized physical spaces, like gymnasiums, to strategically maximize its effectiveness.

Megumi Fushiguro’s Family

■Tsumiki Fushiguro (Adoptive Sister)
Tsumiki Fushiguro is Megumi’s adoptive sister and one of the people he treasures most. Her kindness and virtuous nature from a young age instilled in Megumi the belief that "good people deserve happiness." Tsumiki’s life took a tragic turn when she fell victim to an unexplained curse, leaving her bedridden. Megumi's overwhelming sense of helplessness fueled his determination to grow stronger as a sorcerer. His quest to save Tsumiki represents the driving force behind many of his actions.

Toji Fushiguro (Father)
Toji Fushiguro, Megumi’s father, is a former member of the Zenin clan who chose to leave his family behind, making him an outlier in the world of Jujutsu Sorcerers.

During Megumi’s childhood, Toji abandoned him and his stepmother (Tsumiki’s mother), leaving them to fend for themselves. In an act of betrayal, Toji planned to sell Megumi to the Zenin clan for financial gain, using the money to sustain his fugitive lifestyle. However, his scheme was thwarted by Satoru Gojo, who intervened and took Megumi into Jujutsu High to protect him from the Zenin clan’s grasp.

Megumi himself has little recollection of his father, stating, "I don’t even remember his face." His knowledge of Toji is limited, further emphasizing the emotional distance between them.

Megumi Fushiguro’s Key Relationships

■Yuji Itadori
Yuji was Megumi's first classmate at Tokyo Jujutsu High (soon joined by Nobara Kugisaki). They met during Megumi's mission to retrieve the Special Grade Cursed Object, the "Finger of Ryomen Sukuna," from Yuji’s school. After Yuji became Sukuna's vessel and faced a potential death sentence, Megumi pleaded with Satoru Gojo, saying, "I don’t want him to die."

■Nobara Kugisaki
Nobara, a fellow first-year student, is one of Megumi's closest companions.

■Satoru Gojo
Satoru Gojo, Megumi’s mentor and homeroom teacher, has been a guiding figure in his life since childhood. Gojo supported Megumi and Tsumiki financially and arranged for Megumi to attend Jujutsu High. Megumi deeply respects Gojo’s unparalleled skill as a Jujutsu Sorcerer and often applies his teachings during combat situations.

■Maki Zenin
Maki, a relative and senior at Jujutsu High, serves as a mentor to Megumi. She has trained him in the use of cursed tools and hand-to-hand combat, significantly influencing his fighting style.

■Ryomen Sukuna
Megumi’s relationship with Sukuna is unique, characterized by the King of Curses’ keen interest in his abilities and potential. Sukuna has shown significant curiosity about Megumi's Ten Shadows Technique, closely observing his growth. While Megumi remains unaware of Sukuna’s intentions, their connection may play a pivotal role in the overarching narrative of "Jujutsu Kaisen."

Despite the overwhelming power gap between himself and the Special Grade Curse, Megumi fights relentlessly to honor Yuji’s sacrifice. After escaping the detention center, he confronts Sukuna. Recalling his adoptive sister Tsumiki, whom he believes "deserved happiness more than anyone," Megumi declares, “As for me, I save people… unfairly,” showcasing his resolve even in the face of Sukuna’s overwhelming strength.

■Kyoto Goodwill Event Arc
During the team battle between Tokyo and Kyoto Jujutsu High, Megumi squares off against Noritoshi Kamo. This fight becomes a clash between members of the Jujutsu world's prestigious three families—the Zenin and Kamo clans.

Megumi counters Kamo's rapid attacks using Blood Manipulation by deploying his Shikigami, Divine Dog (Totality), for a well-timed retaliation.

■Death Painting Arc
In this arc, Megumi investigates a case linked to his alma mater, Urami East Middle School. He ventures to the haunted Yasohachi Bridge, a location once visited by Tsumiki. To protect Yuji and Nobara, Megumi faces a Special Grade Curse on his own.

During a desperate battle, Megumi recalls Satoru Gojo’s advice and surpasses his limits by unleashing his Domain Expansion, Chimera Shadow Garden. This pivotal moment symbolizes his growth, and despite the domain being incomplete, he successfully defeats the Special Grade Curse.

■Shibuya Incident Arc
The Shibuya Incident is one of the most intense arcs in "Jujutsu Kaisen." Megumi, alongside Kento Nanami and Takuma Ino, undertakes the mission to destroy the veil preventing Jujutsu Sorcerers from entering.

After locating the cursed tools maintaining the veil, Ino destroys one while Megumi and Yuji work together to defeat the Curse Users holding the other two. Their seamless teamwork ensures success.

Later, Megumi uses his Domain Expansion, Chimera Shadow Garden, to assist in the battle against the Special Grade Curse Dagon, who had trapped Nanami and others within his Domain Expansion. While attempting to escape from Dagon’s domain, their efforts are interrupted by the sudden and forceful intrusion of a mysterious man (Toji Fushiguro).

Toji unleashes a relentless assault on Dagon, defeating the Special Grade Curse with overwhelming strength.

Following this, Megumi is ambushed by Haruta Shigemo, sustaining severe injuries. In his final act of defiance, Megumi initiates the Ritual of Subjugation for Mahoraga. However, Mahoraga incapacitates Megumi with a single strike. Before the situation escalates further, Sukuna intervenes, unleashing a devastating battle that ends with Sukuna’s Domain Expansion and ultimate techniques, combining Malevolent Shrine and Open. The battle resets the ritual, leaving it incomplete.
