⁵★| Kashimo Hajime — JJK

Hajime is the perfect example of a jujutsu sorcerer from the past who lives for fighting strong opponents. Towards the end of his life, after presumably spending the majority of it fighting sorcerers, Hajime was ultimately bored and unsatisfied with the battles he fought. He values life very differently from people of the modern-day and only agreed to Kenjaku's terms in order to fight Sukuna, the most powerful potential opponent. Hajime Kashimo (鹿紫雲かしも一はじめ, Kashimo Hajime?),[2] known as The God of Lightning (雷らい神じん, Raijin?),[3] is an antagonist-turned-supporting character in the Jujutsu Kaisen series. He is a sorcerer from 400 years ago, currently inhabiting the body of someone Kenjaku prepared as a vessel, and has served as a player in Kenjaku's Culling Game, seeking to find and consequently battle Sukuna.

400 years ago, Hajime was an elderly man with cyan-colored eyes with short zig-zag lines underneath them. He had thick eyebrows and long cyan-colored hair tied together in a disheveled style. Most of it was kept tied back behind his head with a single band and reached just beyond his neck. He also had some of the hair on top partied and tied into two buns on the right and left sides of his head. He wore a traditional dark-colored haori.

Incarnated into a new body, Hajime has a much younger appearance as a Culling Game player. He retains the lightning-shaped lines connected to the bottom of his eyelids and his disheveled hairstyle is mostly the same but with bangs in the front. Hajime wears simple, white clothing including a large robe with a scrunched collar around the neck area. The sleeves of his robe are slightly rolled up to reveal Hajime's bandage-wrapped forearms. Hajime also wears matching pants and shoes of the same color as well.

Hajime is the perfect example of a jujutsu sorcerer from the past who lives for fighting strong opponents. Towards the end of his life, after presumably spending the majority of it fighting sorcerers, Hajime was ultimately bored and unsatisfied with the battles he fought. He valued life very differently from people of the modern-day and only agreed to Kenjaku's terms in order to fight Sukuna, the most powerful potential opponent.

Hajime not only relished the challenge of facing Sukuna but also wanted to learn from his philosophy. He asked Sukuna if he was born the strongest or earned that title later on. Hajime could never connect with others or display kindness while knowing nothing of weakness. He found all others to be as brittle as the dirt beneath his feet. His primary question to the King of Curses was whether true strength was solitude or if it was a cross the strongest had to bear during the endless search for greater power. In the end, Sukuna taught Hajime that connecting with others by displaying their strength is love and that he was greedy for lamenting the solitude. In death, Hajime smiled and accepted Sukuna's reasoning.
