呪術廻戦

Synopsis:

Idly indulging in baseless paranormal activities with the Occult Club, high schooler Yuuji Itadori spends his days at either the clubroom or the hospital, where he visits his bedridden grandfather. However, this leisurely lifestyle soon takes a turn for the strange when he unknowingly encounters a cursed item. Triggering a chain of supernatural occurrences, Yuuji finds himself suddenly thrust into the world of Curses—dreadful beings formed from human malice and negativity—after swallowing the said item, revealed to be a finger belonging to the demon Sukuna Ryoumen, the "King of Curses." Yuuji experiences first-hand the threat these Curses pose to society as he discovers his own newfound powers. Introduced to the Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu Technical High School, he begins to walk down a path from which he cannot return—the path of a Jujutsu sorcerer. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Claiming it to be his selfish and irrational desire, he does not see himself as a hero for doing this.

Character ID: 127212

About Character and Role:

Species: Human
Height: 173 cm
Occupation: Sorcerer, Student, Vessel
Affiliation: Jujutsu High

A muscular teenager with big light brown eyes and light brown spiky hair. Yuuji is a fair person who cares greatly for not only his comrades but anyone he views as people with their own wills, despite how deep or shallow his connection to them is. He cares greatly for the "value of a life" and to this end, he will ensure that others receive a "proper death." He is easy to anger in the face of pure cruelty and unfair judgment of other people.
He doesn't have the born talent required to use cursed techniques, but he has incredible athletic abilities and he is considered very strong for his age, as shown by when he easily beat a coach in Steel Ball Throw.

Gojou is said to be one of, if not the strongest sorcerer in the series, holding both immense amounts of curse power and a dangerously powerful technique known as Limitless.

During the Shibuya incident, Gojo is led into a trap and is sealed in a box where he's incapable of doing anything and is later deemed a criminal by the higher ups and exiled from the Jujutsu world, furthermore removing the seal on Gojo will be considered a criminal act no matter who does it.
