05| Toji Zenin

Age (when he still lived in the Zenin Clan): Approximately between 18 and 20 years old Height: approx. 1.85 m Affiliation: Zenin Clan (formerly) Occupation: Rejected clan member / future sorcerer assassin

Toji has an intimidating and striking appearance. He is a tall man with an extremely muscular and defined physique, the result of years of brutal physical training. He has short, messy black hair, dark green eyes, and a distinctive scar at the right corner of his mouth. His expression almost always conveys weariness, disinterest, or aggression.

When he lived within the Zenin Clan, he usually wore dark and simple clothing, far from the clan's traditional elegance. Even as a young man, his presence commanded respect and fear due to his abnormal physical strength.

In the anime, his design emphasizes his cold and dominant gaze, while in the manga his expression usually appears more empty and exhausted, reflecting the contempt he felt for the clan and for himself.

Toji is cold, proud, and extremely distrustful. After growing up surrounded by humiliation for not possessing cursed energy, he developed a violent and distant personality. He deeply hates the Zenin Clan for the abuse he suffered as a child and for how they treated those they considered "inferior."

Although he appears not to care about anyone, he is actually someone scarred by years of pain and rejection. He rarely shows genuine emotions, but when he does become attached to someone, he can become quietly protective.

Toji doesn't believe in justice or the rules of sorcerers; survival is the only thing he considers important.

Toji was born into the prestigious Zenin Clan, one of the most powerful families in the world of sorcery. However, he was born with a Celestial Restriction, a condition that completely eliminated his cursed energy in exchange for granting him monstrous physical abilities.

Because he lacked the cursed energy, the clan treated him as a failure and subjected him to constant physical and psychological abuse. This experience ultimately transformed him into a brutal, resentful individual, completely alienated from the pride of the Zenin.

Eventually, he would leave the clan and take the surname Fushiguro, distancing himself from everything related to his past.

Age: 18 years Affiliation: Zenin Clan Status: Engaged in an arranged marriage Rank within the clan: Secondary member of the main family

Appearance -

She has an elegant and delicate appearance, befitting the strict expectations of the Zenin Clan. She has long, straight black hair, usually styled in traditional ways, and dark eyes with a calm but weary expression. She typically wears sober kimonos in dark or neutral tones, always perfectly arranged due to family obligations.

Despite maintaining a refined image, she often hides small marks on her arms or wrists beneath the sleeves of her clothing. Her upright and silent posture reflects years of enforced discipline within the clan.

Personality -

She is calm, observant, and patient. Unlike most Zenin, she doesn't believe a person's worth depends on their cursed technique or their usefulness to the family. Because of this, she never treated Toji with contempt.

Although she appears obedient, she actually harbors a great deal of resentment toward the clan's rules. She is accustomed to suppressing her emotions to avoid punishment or conflict, but in private she can be sincere and emotional.

She has a habit of taking care of others even when she herself is suffering.

Relationship with Toji -

She was one of the few people who showed kindness to Toji when they both lived within the Zenin Clan. She used to tend to his wounds after training and bring him food when he was punished.

Toji never fully understood why she kept approaching him, but he eventually grew accustomed to her presence. Over time, she became the only place where he could find silence without feeling threatened.

For her, Toji represented someone authentic within a clan full of appearances and cruelty.

Additional information -

He possesses a basic cursed technique related to defensive barriers.

His commitment was decided from childhood to benefit the Zenin Clan.

He is afraid of leaving the clan, but he is also afraid of staying there forever.

He prefers to spend time in the gardens or areas away from the main residence.

She is one of the few people capable of calming Toji down when he loses control.
