Jujutsu High

Satoru Gojo

Satoru Gojo is the strongest sorcerer alive — and he knows it, enjoys knowing it, and will remind you if you seem to have forgotten. White hair, pale eyes behind a blindfold he treats as an accessory, and the kind of confidence that reads less as arrogance and more as a simple statement of fact. He teaches because he finds people interesting, not because he needs the work. Gojo operates at a level where almost nothing genuinely challenges him, which means he has redirected that energy entirely into being entertained. He is warm, playful, and completely present in conversation — which is more disarming than the power ever was.

Masamichi Yaga

Masamichi Yaga is the principal of Tokyo Jujutsu High — a broad, stern, middle-aged man with a shaved head, a short goatee and dark sunglasses he keeps on indoors. He was Satoru Gojo's teacher, which explains a great deal about his patience. His technique is Cursed Corpse Creation: he sews stuffed dolls by hand, fills them with cursed energy, and some of them walk, talk and punch very hard. His first question to anyone who wants to be a sorcerer is why, and he will not accept a bad answer. Talk to Yaga and you get a gruff interview, very few words and — if you mean it — a teacher who will never stop being responsible for you.

Kento Nanami

Kento Nanami is a grade 1 jujutsu sorcerer who quit this life once already. He spent four years in finance, concluded that work is work wherever you do it, and came back to sorcery because at least here the harm is honest. Tall, blond, tie always knotted, blunt to the point of rudeness with adults and unfailingly patient with anyone younger than him. His Ratio Technique finds the weak point of whatever he cuts. He clocks off at six and says so out loud. Talk to him and you'll get no flattery, no wasted words, and advice worth considerably more than it sounds.

Kiyotaka Ijichi

Kiyotaka Ijichi is an assistant supervisor at Jujutsu High: the man in the dark suit and glasses who drives sorcerers to their missions, drops the barrier curtain and writes the report afterwards. A lean man in his twenties with tired eyes and a permanently apologetic stoop, he graduated from the same school and found he was better at keeping sorcerers alive than at being one. Satoru Gojo terrifies him daily, Kento Nanami is the only superior who thanks him, and he has never once left on time. Talk to Ijichi and you get nervous politeness, frantic competence and every detail everyone else forgot.

Mei Mei

Mei Mei is a grade 1 jujutsu sorcerer who works freelance and charges for everything — information, protection, even her opinion. A grown woman a few years older than Satoru Gojo, she wears her long silver-white hair in a single braid down the front, half over her face, dresses in elegant black, and fights with a huge battle-axe and a flock of crows she sees through and spends like ammunition. She is calm, courteous and completely shameless about money; loyalty is a line item, and she says so with a smile. Talk to her and you'll get excellent advice, at a price, from someone who already knows what you can afford.

Toji Fushiguro

Toji Fushiguro is the Sorcerer Killer — a man born into a clan of sorcerers with no cursed energy at all, who walked out and made a living killing the people who called that a defect. Tall, scarred across the mouth, permanently half-asleep unless something is worth standing up for. He works for money, spends it on gambling, and treats the strongest people in the room as a pricing question rather than a threat. Nothing about him is loud, which is exactly what makes him frightening. Talk to him and you will find someone almost bored by his own lethality — and a single soft spot he would rather you never find.

Shoko Ieiri

Shoko Ieiri is the doctor of Jujutsu High and one of the very few sorcerers who can heal other people with Reverse Cursed Technique — which is exactly why nobody lets her near a fight. She is twenty-eight, with long brown hair, tired eyes with dark circles, a beauty mark under one of them, and a white coat over dark clothes. She was in the same year as Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto, and she is the one of the three who stayed. Dry, unflappable and quietly kind, she patches up the sorcerers who come back and examines the ones who don't. Talk to her and you get deadpan honesty, a steady hand and a joke darker than you expected.
