Megumi Fushiguro

Megumi was born on December 22, 2002 to Toji Fushiguro and an unnamed mother.When he was in elementary school, his father married Tsumiki's mother. When their parents died, Satoru Gojo stepped in and had the college support Megumi and his sister instead of Megumi heading to the Zenin family. At some point a young Megumi used one of his Divine Dogs to lead a young girl outside of her captivity from a curse spirited to which Gojo teased she might fall for him one day. It is also known that Megumi once attended Saitama Urami East Junior High School, often getting himself into a lot of fights. He usually was scolded by his older stepsister, Tsumiki, for his rash actions. His sister was cursed and is in a coma.

His hobby is reading and he likes non-fiction. Favorite food: Food that pairs well with ginger. Least favorite food: Red bell peppers and all sweet side dishes. Cause of stress: People (almost all). When his shikigami gets destroyed, he becomes depressed. People like Fushiguro get more sad over the death of an animal than the people he doesn’t know. He watches the news and reads newspapers, but doesn’t believe half of them. Gojo and Maki taught Megumi Hand-to-Hand Combat and how to use weapons. During Megumi's first mission, Gojo watched over and teased him. After their parents vanished, Tsumiki basically did all the housework. Megumi helped to a degree. Gojo had intervened before the little money left by Tsumiki’s mother was used up. Megumi has a strong memory. Before he enrolled in Jujutsu High, he did not join missions. He observed Gojo, who acted like his supervisor, taking him out to missions on a few occasions. The tablet he uses is owned by Tokyo High. It’s handed by the accompanying assistant manager when necessary. He got acquainted with Maki and Mai before entering the school. When Gojo worked out the problem of Megumi and Zenin family, he took Megumi to Zenin clan’s house. Megumi met Ogi's daughters for the first time when they went around the house. Megumi first met Gojo when he was in 1st grade. Megumi prefers casual clothes/clothes you'd wear around the house. Megumi's hairstyle tends to be erratic.

Chimera Shadow Garden (嵌かん合ごう暗あん翳えい庭てい, Kangō An'eitei?): A domain that floods the area with fluid shadows that can rapidly produce any shikigami Megumi desires. Megumi's domain is incomplete and doesn't have a sure-hit function, but the Ten Shadows Technique is improved to 120% of its potential.[125] This allows Megumi to produce clones of himself from the shadows as well as shikigami. Megumi is unable to produce a barrier around the domain and must overlap an indoor space to forcibly enclose his domain to trap his target inside.

Eight-Handled Sword Divergent Sila Divine General Mahoraga (八やつ握かの剣つるぎ異い戒かい神しん将しょう魔ま虚こ羅ら, Yatsuka-no-Tsurugi Ikaishinshō Makora?): The most powerful uncontrollable shikigami that the Ten Shadows Technique can produce. Not a single user of the technique has ever been able to tame Mahoraga, including Megumi. He only threatens to summon it as a trump card if he feels he's going to lose a battle anyway, releasing it to attack both him and his opponent.

Ten Shadows Technique (十と種くさの影かげ法ぼう術じゅつ, Tokusa no Kage Bōjutsu?): A technique passed down in the Zenin Family which Megumi inherited, allowing him to summon up to ten potential shikigami using his shadows as an intermediary. It also grants the user overall manipulation of shadows, allowing Megumi to hide in shadows or store objects within his own shadow. Divine Dogs (玉ぎょく犬けん, Gyokuken?): Twin canine shikigami with powerful noses for tracking and lethal fangs and claws for devouring curses. Divine Dog: Totality (玉ぎょく犬けん「渾こん」, Gyokuken・Kon?): An improved version of the black Divine Dog that incorporates the power of its fallen white twin. Totality is strong enough to content with special grade cursed spirits, making it Megumi's strongest offensive shikigami. Great Serpent (大蛇オロチ, Orochi?)[123]: A gigantic snake shikigami that was used to ensnare Megumi's targets.Toad (蝦が蟇ま, Gama?): A large toad shikigami with a long and powerful tongue that can grab people and pull them through the air. Toad's tongue can be used to pull Megumi or his allies to safety and then carry an entire person in its mouth if need be.The Well's Unknown Abyss (不知井底せいていしらず, Seiteishirazu?): An extension technique that combines Toad and Nue to summon numerous winged toads that support Megumi in battle. Any number of these winged toads can be destroyed without Megumi losing the ability to summon Nue or Toad.Max Elephant (満ばん象しょう, Banshō?): An elephant shikigami that Megumi dominated just before the Goodwill Event. Max Elephant has the ability to produce a massive volume of water from its trunk and its weight can be used offensively as well.Rabbit Escape (脱だっ兎と, Datto?): A swarm of rabbit shikigami that Megumi uses as a distraction or to help him figure out his enemies abilities. Like the Well's Unknown Abyss, rabbits can be destroyed without any repercussions, allowing Megumi to spawn as many as he needs.

Cursed Energy Capacity: While not on the level of a special grade, Megumi has a very high volume of cursed energy. He's constantly summoning shikigami while also reinforcing his body with cursed energy in battle. Megumi displayed immense reserves of cursed energy in numerous drawn-out battles while rarely fully exhausting himself. He can summon up to three shikigami at the same time and uses multiple summonings in every fight. Megumi's cursed energy was running low against Sukuna after using several shikigami in the detention center and in their fight, but he was still capable of summoning Mahoraga if need be. Like the detention center incident, Megumi used a high volume of shikigami during the Goodwill Event and still didn't fully exhaust himself by the end of his fight with Hanami. A testament to Megumi's overall cursed energy is his ability to conjure a domain, which requires a massive amount of it. In Shibuya, Megumi used shikigami before and even after casting his domain without expending himself completely. A similar feat was achieved against Reggie, where Megumi used Max Elephant alongside other shikigami. He usually uses Max Elephant alone because it consumes a lot of cursed energy, but he still had enough to cast his domain afterward. Even after dispelling his domain, Megumi could still summon Divine Dog: Totality with the last of cursed energy.

Megumi is especially tough for a human being, with high pain tolerance, exceptional stamina, and especially impressive durability. He's shown his toughness on numerous occasions where he was able to withstand a beating and survived the battle, sometimes even overcoming his own exhaustion to achieve victory. Megumi can survive direct attacks from even special grade cursed spirits. He suffered a beatdown at the hands of Sukuna without any major injuries. Todo also overpowered Megumi in a similar fashion, but in both cases, Megumi never passed out and he continuously refused to back down. Hanami struck Megumi with a cursed bud that drained his cursed energy and injured his gut, but Megumi remained standing and was willing to continue fighting.[115] In his fight with the Finger Bearer, Megumi suffered serious head trauma and was knocked unconscious only for a few moments. Despite the severity of his injuries and his depleted stamina, Megumi pushed himself to the limit and exorcised the curse, although he passed out right after.[116] When he allowed himself to be stabbed by Toji, Megumi barely winced from the pain despite his abdomen getting punctured.[117] When he was grievously injured by Shigemo, Megumi still managed to muster up enough strength to summon Mahoraga before he bled out.[118] In the Tokyo No. 1 Colony, Megumi was hit by several explosions and was in rough shape after getting ambushed by Reggie and Hazenoki.Megumi fought through his exhaustion and was able to ignore his injuries long enough to defeat Reggie, who was entirely refreshed with full stamina at the start of their fight.

Megumi was trained by Maki, the best cursed tool user at Jujutsu High, to use a variety of different weapons. He can keep cursed tools in his shadow, so Megumi is capable of swapping out multiple weapons for himself at any time.[102] Maki began by teaching Megumi with a polearm he quickly became comfortable with,[103] and after nearly two months of training, Megumi was able to use a pair of tonfa for the Goodwill Event.[104] In his fight with Kamo, Megumi was able to make effective use of the tonfa, especially on the defensive, using them to block Kamo's enhanced strength until they were broken. In a life or death encounter, instead of using blunt weapons, Megumi will generally arm himself with one handed-swords that are lightweight and easy to store if he needs to free up his hands to summon shikigami. He wielded his signature black blade with great speed and efficiency, able to land two blows on Hanami with it.[106][107] He also hit Hanami with Playful Cloud after swapping weapons with Maki mid-fight, displaying Megumi's advanced weapon dexterity.[108] Using his black blade, Megumi also destroyed numerous heads of the Yasohachi Bridge curse in quick succession with great speed and skill. Megumi's current weapon of choice is another one-handed blade he still incorporates while fighting at close range. He fights gracefully and in a crude manner depending on the situation, making use of both the double-edged blade and the back of the handle to injure his opponents. In combination with a barrage of Yuji's punches, Megumi pummeled Awasaka with the blunt side of his sword.[110] Megumi eliminated Chizuru Hari from the Culling Game by smashing his face with the circular-shaped hilt of the sword before killing Hari with a brutal slash to the head. Up against Reggie, who was the superior taijutsu specialist, Megumi continued to use his swordplay to supplement his close combat skills throughout their entire fight.

Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Megumi is a strong fighter who has never been afraid to get in close to hit his opponents. He's always been stronger than normal people his age, able to effortlessly beat down a human pile of bullies on his own.[96] In one of his earliest missions, Megumi was already strong enough to destroy a curse with just the swipe of his bare hands.[97] Megumi has a fast and graceful style of fighting that's evidence of his comfort in close combat. However, by sorcerer standards, Megumi was still weak at close range when faced with dangerous threats, especially without the help of his shikigami.[98] Sukuna was impressed by Megumi's willingness to engage in hand-to-hand combat despite being a shikigami user but the King of Curses easily overpowered Megumi even while he was supported by shikigami. Maki trained Megumi to be more reliable in close combat but he prefers to supplement himself with weaponry rather than fight unarmed. Megumi only truly excels at hand-to-hand combat while his domain boosts his cursed energy reinforcement. When his sword was broken by the Finger Bearer, Megumi rapidly summoned shikigami alongside his taijutsu to overpower the special grade.[100] The same occurred when Megumi used shadow clones in the domain to barrage Reggie with combinations of punches, flying kicks, and elbows.

Immense Tactical Intellect: Megumi's most reliable and imposing asset as a sorcerer is his mind. He is a young genius, a cerebral fighter whose focus in a battle is to outwit his opponent rather than overpower them. Megumi assesses all threats logically and deals with them in a strategic manner. Using his advanced deducting reasoning skills, Megumi thinks of clever ways to deal with every situation as it comes. This is regularly showcased by Megumi's consistent talent for deducing his opponent's strengths and weaknesses in the heat of battle. Megumi's jujutsu knowledge extends to reading the behavior of fellow sorcerers. Megumi figured out the Kyoto Team's objective during the Goodwill Event by tracking their movements. Fully aware of how sorcerers tend to view Sukuna's vessel, Megumi quickly realized the Kyoto Team was trying to assassinate his ally.[81] As a former associate of one of the Big Three Families, Megumi had prior knowledge of Blood Manipulation before he fought with Kamo. Quickly after witnessing Flowing Red Scale in action, Megumi noticed his opponent was essentially doping.[82] In order to deal with Kamo's boost in speed, Megumi took a tactical approach. He used a Toad on its last legs to distract Kamo and then took advantage of the time gained from this to summon Max Elephant. By using Max Elephant to flood the area with water, Kamo's physical advantage was nullified and he was forced outside into an open space where Nue could capitalize. Megumi generally looks for an opponent's shortcomings to exploit after he's ascertained their abilities. Megumi also possesses adept analytical skills.

Megumi is a grade 2 sorcerer who possesses one of the highest potentials of any student at Jujutsu High regardless of age. He inherited the prized Ten Shadows Technique of the Zenin clan and is favored by the strongest sorcerer himself. Satoru believes that Megumi could become as strong as he is and has stated he likely possesses even more skill and potential than Yuji. Mai Zenin commended him as a genius who started school ranked grade 2.[32] Noritoshi Kamo mirrored the same sentiment, claiming Megumi's age is irrelevant because of his inherited technique, and that he was even more reliable than the drunk Head of the Zenin clan.[33] Even Sukuna took a special interest in Megumi due to his unique talents. Megumi is an exceptionally focused person and a highly disciplined combatant. He excels at keeping his cool in even the direst situations. Of all Satoru's students, Megumi is the most level-headed and clever in his approach to every fight. This has translated into an expert degree of understanding when it comes to jujutsu and how to practically apply his own skills. By the time he met Yuji, Megumi was already capable of summoning several different shikigami and he had a solid grasp on the Ten Shadows Technique. When Satoru left Megumi without much direction in his assignment to track down Sukuna's finger at Yuji's school, he was still able to navigate the mission on his own. Megumi was able to nearly secure Sukuna's finger without issue, but Yuji and his friends accidentally complicated the mission and led to Megumi getting caught off guard by a giant cursed spirit that nearly incapacitated him. During the evacuation of the Eishu Detention Center, Megumi quickly recognized they had been caught in an unfavorable situation when they stepped into an incomplete domain. Even so, his rational line of thinking led him to use his shikigami to navigate the facility while leading his allies through it.

While Megumi cares about protecting those close to him, that same concern doesn't extend to himself. He feels responsible for Sukuna so he doesn't allow Yuji or anyone else to express concern for him regarding the King of Curses. He and Yuji even argued because Megumi didn't want to hassle their senpai just for his own safety. He told Yuji that line of thinking is selfish and an annoying waste of time. Megumi's desperation to protect others, especially his sister, was on full display when he needed help from Hakari and Kirara. Megumi prostrated himself and begged for help. He even used his status as the head of the Zenin clan to win Hakari over. Unlike Yuji, Megumi had zero qualms about killing other humans in the Culling Game. Megumi's sole focus was saving his sister and he immediately conflicted with anyone who stood in his way. He even threatened to kill Remi, a weak woman, for leading him into an ambush. When Reggie attempted to recruit Megumi, he felt that Reggie and Remi were wasting his time and they almost instantly came to blows.[24][25] Megumi always figured Reggie and his group were always using Remi but she never realized it. When it became clear and she begged Megumi to help her, he told Remi that she was the type of trash who cares more about words than deeds.[26] After making his first ever human kill, Megumi remained calmed and trusted in his own judgment. Confident in himself and his allies, Megumi resolved to wave away any difficulties that crossed his path on the way to rescue his sister. Megumi only put his cynicism and mistrust aside in the Culling Game when Fumihiko Takaba helped him. Fumihiko's eccentric personality reminded Megumi of Todo and he didn't laugh at his jokes, but they were still able to communicate and work together. Despite their clashing personalities, Megumi even felt comfortable asking Takaba to try and steal Hazenoki's points, viewing him as a potential ally for the future.

Megumi and Yuji have a shared guilt for accidentally incarnating Sukuna. They both accepted responsibility for Sukuna's rampage in Shibuya. While Yuji felt he couldn't return to Jujutsu High, Megumi believed that was a selfish route. He doesn't think anyone can judge jujutsu sorcerers so they must continually prove their existence by saving people. Megumi told Yuji he could start by saving him, a plea for help to rescue Tsumiki from the Culling Game. Megumi feels no loyalty or connection to the Zenin clan, treating Tsumiki as his family. The only member of the Zenin clan Megumi interacts with is Maki, and their relationship is more friendly than familial. Maki wanted Megumi to help her by becoming the head of the clan after Naobito's death but he was completely uninterested. Megumi's reserved personality immediately led him to reject the position, claiming it was too much of a hassle. He isn't very materialistic and social status isn't important to him either, so he couldn't care less about the fortune he'd receive. He told Maki he'd step down so she could lead the clan instead. Even after Maki pointed out several legitimate reasons why Megumi would be a more acceptable head, he continued to stubbornly push back simply because he didn't want to do it. It was only when Megumi realized how important it was to Maki that he accepted.

Megumi was distant with Yuji and Nobara despite considering them his comrades and friends. He was so embarrassed when they visited his middle school that he couldn't speak properly. Yuji and Nobara felt Megumi never shared much with them and hassled him for about his secretiveness. Megumi even blushed when he was reunited with Takeda and was annoyed with Akari Nitta for making him the one to speak with the faculty member. He never shared information on Tsumiki's condition with any of them, Nobara didn't even know he had siblings. Even when Megumi found out Tsumiki could be in danger, he initially refused to involve Yuji and Nobara. They assured him he didn't have to share everything but asked that he depend on them as his friends. This encouragement helped Megumi admit the truth about Tsumiki's condition and his concerns. Yuji and Nobara dismissed the danger of the mission and told Megumi he should've led with that information. Pleased with his comrades' willingness to help him, Megumi smiled. Megumi, who lacks any sort of competitive edge, can feel insecure about his strength as a sorcerer. He made it a point to tell Yuji he would surpass him after the Goodwill Event.[19] Pressured by Yuji's rapid growth, he even went to Gojo for training when any interaction between them is a hassle for Megumi. Gojo made Megumi realize his mindset was holding him back from bringing out his best. He relied too heavily on a failsafe and only achieved his growth when he decided to be selfish and visualize a stronger future for himself. This aided Megumi in achieving domain expansion for the first time, while he was untethered and smiling like a madman.

In response to Todo's classic "what kind of girls do you like?" question, Megumi said that he doesn't have a preference as long as his partner is compassionate. He was trying to de-escalate the situation but this only irritated Todo due to their opposing personalities. When it came to blows, despite being outmatched, Megumi never backed down. Megumi didn't hold any resentment toward Todo and was uninterested in a rematch, which disappointed Panda. Megumi didn't have any loyalty to the Zenin clan so he didn't reciprocate Noritoshi Kamo's familiarity with him. He rejected Noritoshi's belief that as descendants of the Big Three Families, they were obligated to kill Sukuna's vessel. Megumi expressed that he didn't care about being right or wrong and acted only according to his conscience. He told Noritoshi that he would save people unfairly and if they disagree, they would have to agree to curse each other instead.

As a jujutsu sorcerer, Megumi developed his sense of justice and is steadfast in his interpretation of right and wrong. Like his mentor, Megumi refuses to be influenced by traditions within the jujutsu world. Yuji should've been executed when they first met but Megumi ignored the rules and made a personal request to Satoru to protect him. Megumi was unsure for a while if he made the correct decision. He was uncomfortable with the idea that he was someone who saved people. He believed saving the wrong people could hurt innocent people in the future, which made saving Yuji a contradictory decision.[10] Megumi cast aside his uncertainty when he came face-to-face with the consequences of his choice, Sukuna. He decided the only thing that's fair in life is how it's unfair to everyone and sorcerers can be a cog in karmic retribution. He wants more good people like Tsumiki to receive fairness and that's why he'll save people unfairly. Megumi realized that he didn't save Yuji because it was logical, he did it because he didn't want to see a good person die. He knows it was a selfish and emotional decision but he's okay with that because he's not a hero, he's a jujutsu sorcerer. That is why Megumi never regretted saving Yuji, not even for a second. Being unable to save Yuji or Tadashi Okazaki during the detention center incident left Megumi pondering his role as a sorcerer. He asked Maki what kind of people she wanted to save, only to be annoyed by her response.[12] Megumi and Nobara weren't exactly friends at this point, but Yuji's premature demise brought them closer together. It was the first time either of them lost a friend in battle and they decided to honor him by participating in the Goodwill Event to honor their fallen friend, swearing to get stronger no matter what.

Megumi is a very outwardly stoic, aloof, and calculating individual. He usually has a neutral facial expression that he rarely changes, making it appear as if he takes every situation seriously. This contrasts heavily with Yuji, Nobara, and Satoru's outgoing and goofy personalities, which often annoy Megumi. He's easily irritated and Yuji has noted that Megumi seems like he's always slightly angry. Even as a child, Megumi was very stern, earnest, and thoughtful, to the point where Satoru questioned if he was a first-grader when they first met. He didn't care for his father and assumed he and Tsumiki were abandoned. Megumi understood his situation with the Zenin clan and stood firm that he would only cooperate if Tsumiki were happy as well. Megumi hated bad people with unearned pride just as much as he did good people who were too merciful to the former. Tsumiki was a perfect example of a good person to Megumi but he would disagree with and get annoyed with her anytime she scolded him for hurting someone bad. After Tsumiki fell into an unending sleep, Megumi realized he was acting immaturely. He knew Tsumiki was choosing to protect and that she believed that his lack of forgiveness was his way of showing kindness. After Tsumiki was cursed, Megumi was filled with regret and found the drive to become a sorcerer so he could save her. Megumi has always been annoyed by Satoru's attitude ever since they first met. He didn't care for the idea of becoming a sorcerer and became more jaded about it over time. By the time Megumi reached middle school, his impersonal attitude had fully set in. He thought becoming a jujutsu sorcerer would be pointless as he didn't see himself as someone who saves others. Uninterested in making friends, Megumi believed the basis of human interaction was avoiding violating someone else's dignity. He would beat up school bullies who ignored this rule to feed their egos, gaining a reputation as the biggest troublemaker in school as a result.

Megumi is a relatively tall and slim young man with fair skin and green eyes (dark-blue eyes in the anime adaptation) that slant upwards to denote his harsher and colder personality. He has uniquely styled black hair with long spikes that jut out in every direction around his head, resembling a sea-urchin (according to Hakari). When first meeting Megumi, Gojo noted the resemblance to his father Toji Fushiguro and Megumi himself has similar facial features and the same green eyes as his late father. Megumi typically wears a standard Jujutsu High uniform with a dark blue jacket over a long-sleeved white dress shirt. His uniform pants match his jacket and only reach to just above his shins. He wears long black socks that cover his exposed ankles and finishes his outfit with low-top brown shoes. He also has a blue tracksuit for training. In middle school, Megumi wore the Saitama Urami East Junior High uniform, which consisted of a tan jacket over a white dress shirt with black pants and white sneakers. While sneaking inside the Gachinko Fight Club, Megumi wore a black hoodie and matching pants with his normal shoes as a disguise.

Megumi Fushiguro (伏ふし黒ぐろ恵めぐみ, Fushiguro Megumi?) is the deuteragonist of the Jujutsu Kaisen series. He is a grade 2 jujutsu sorcerer and first-year student at Tokyo Jujutsu High alongside Yuji Itadori and Nobara Kugisaki. Megumi is the step-brother of Tsumiki Fushiguro and as the son of Toji Fushiguro, Megumi is also a descendant of the Zenin Clan. Megumi was born outside the clan as Toji's trump card and was eventually found by Satoru Gojo, who mentored him and enrolled him at Jujutsu High as his student.
