Mitou Retsune

"*Listen, I know how you feel… the three of us… we went on a lot of missions with Mitsuki-sensei. Ukiyo and I don't want to fight her either. But it's because we know her so well that we can stop her with the least risk to the army. Don't you remember what those earrings are supposed to represent, Hiroomi?*"

## Personality

Mitou is naturally a very kind, talkative and endlessly curious girl who shows great interest in people's unique physical features and is easily distracted by them. Due to this, Mitou can be very blunt, often asking rather invasive or off-putting questions. When she was first was at Jujutsu High, her personality drove people away from her, with them all believing she was looking down on them due to her family lineage and powerful cursed technique. Because of this, she remained cold and distant from everyone, keeping her emotions bottled in. It wasn't until Ukiyo Yashiki, and then Hiroomi Kanata, befriended her that she was able to open her feelings back up again, regaining her own confidence.

Mitou is an affectionate person and a "free spirit," someone who has a genuine passion for learning new and strange things and isn't afraid to speak her mind or show how she feels. She seems to like knowing more than others, but not in a proud way, as she just enjoys explaining things to people and sharing her knowledge. She is mentioned to act like a kindergartner due to her childish glee.

She is very enthusiastic, affable, and cheery, and is always seen moving. She shows compassionate side with her underclassmen by chatting and playing with them on her free time. However, she has shown a more stoic nature during various situations; she was not very concerned for Ukiyo when she learns of his attack. Thanks to her inquisitive and chatty demeanor, she is a notably level-headed individual. Despite her happy-go-lucky personality, Mitou is fierce in battle. When the situation calls for it, Mitou can be very calm and focused. Her curiosity never seems to extend to the enemy and she always maintains her focus on taking them down. During her battle against Mahito and the Finger Bearers, Mitou showed great judgement, aptitude and anger, a side of which she does not often display. Her strong heart is what has allowed her to climb the ranks into Jujutsu High's semi-grade 1.

## Abilities and Powers

### Overview

Being of grade 2 upon enrollment, Mitou is an exceptionally powerful sorcerer, arguably one of Jujutsu High's strongest students. Mitou single-handily defeated two special grade during Geto's Night Line attack in Kyoto. From the moment she stepped foot in the institution, it became evident that Mitou possessed an extraordinary level of skill and potential, making her stand out among her peers.

The cursed technique inherited from her father, Hasashi, served as the foundation for Mitou's sorcery. This technique granted her an incredible gift: unmatched speed. With a combination of natural talent and relentless training, Mitou harnessed this ability to its fullest extent, achieving a level of proficiency that surpassed most of her fellow students.

What set Mitou apart was not only her speed but also her strategic intellect. She possessed a keen mind, capable of analyzing the battlefield and quickly formulating effective plans of action. This allowed her to exploit her opponents' weaknesses and capitalize on her own strengths, maximizing her chances of victory.

Mitou's close combat prowess was equally impressive. She seamlessly blended her lightning-fast movements with a wide range of offensive and defensive techniques, making her an unpredictable and formidable opponent. Her strikes were precise and lethal, delivered with a combination of finesse and raw power. Mitou's fighting style showcased her deep understanding of martial arts principles, further enhancing her effectiveness in combat.

In the face of danger, Mitou remained remarkably composed and focused. She possessed the same innate knack for timing as her father, Hasashi, allowing her to execute her moves with impeccable precision. Mitou's relentless pursuit of speed became her trademark, as she continually sought to push the boundaries of her own limits, reaching new heights of swiftness and agility.

Mitou's successes in combat were not achieved without effort. She devoted herself to rigorous training, constantly seeking ways to improve her skills and expand her knowledge of sorcery. Mitou's commitment to her craft was unwavering, and she relentlessly pushed herself to become even stronger, firmly establishing herself as one of Jujutsu High's most formidable students.

### Physical Prowess

Though certainly not her preferred mode of fighting, Mitou has shown a considerable degree of skill in hand-to-hand. In her battle with Aoi Todo, she was shown to have enough versatility to change tactics in midair, surprising her foes before landing her attack. In her earlier battles against her father's instructor, she would use close combat almost exclusively when she wanted to conserve cursed energy and feel out her foe's strengths and weaknesses. Mitou was at least skilled enough in the art to fend of her instructors briefly in order to prepare cursed energy for a counter-attack.

She was also more than capable of fending of Mahito, a Special Grade Curse, with almost taijutsu alone early on in their battle. Her speed is the primary feature of her combat skills, due to her capable of moving several times faster than sound using her Aero Noise. She proved fast enough to fight on part with a Finger Bearer, including evading his equally fast golden tendrils, created from cursed energy it had obtained from one of Sukuna's Fingers. According to Kanata Akihito, one of Mitou's classmates, Mitou's speed could rival that of Toji Fushiguro, one of the fastest fighters in the sorcerer underworld.

### Intelligence

Mitou's defining and most renowned trait is her intelligence, and stunning mental strength and capacity; a powerful mind as a whole. While she is a very strong opponent, fully capable of even holding his own against grade 1 curses using Aero Noise alone, Mitou is very aware that there would always be enemies stronger than she was, or situations where she would be at severe disadvantages. Therefore, Mitou is very reliant on her mental capabilities especially in overcoming various opponents who overpower her in pure strength. Against powerful and even immortal enemies, Mitou's ability to solve complex problems in very short timeframes is a rare and complex one, keeping her and her allies alive and enabling her to overcome the most impossible odds.

**Immense Tactical Intellect**: Mitou's general approach is the same: using **Scattering Roar** she remains aware of all actions that allies and opponents make, even things that seem insignificant at the time or that she doesn't yet understand; she keeps track of where everything is located in relation to everything else, even features that lack obvious practical use; she studies the behavior of all combatants, gradually learning how they react in any given situation. By then focusing on this vast amount of information, Mitou can quickly think ten moves ahead of her opponent(s) and devise over a hundred strategies, from which she instantly picks the most effective. Such strategies are often highly elaborate and use multiple layers of misdirection, where she takes small victories just to eliminate extraneous factors, pretends defeat in order to re-position opponents, and engineers conditions that will lead opponents to defeating themselves.

With an IQ rating of 170, she excels greatly in logic and strategy, often preferring to stay back and study her opponents before engaging them, to gain knowledge of their tactics and habits. Mitou almost never goes or has gone into battle without giving room for an enemy's power. She also tended to use weaker long ranged moves to test her opponents from a distance lulling them into false complacency before unleashing a barrage of cunning tactics and powerful techniques. Her quick thinking enabled her to burrow his way out of sure death situations, able to quickly counter any certain debilitating situation. Besides reading her enemies' attack patterns, Mitou also would often make it a point to pinpoint the locations of her enemies tools so that she could remove them in the actual battle and remove a key element of the enemy's unpredictability. She also never relied on the probability of success, with at least two back up plans to any huge action she took. She was even capable of surviving several techniques which caused massive collateral damage after taking several precautions prior to her opponent's attacks against Suguru Geto, who was much more powerful than she was. In every setback, Mitou manages to quickly find a counter or a way to exploit it and reverse the situation, specializing in being able to devise strategies in the heat of battle and the longer she fights with her opponent, the better she is able to analyze their fighting style, attack patterns and deduce their powers.

Mitou is also a very quick-witted individual, able to adjust her strategies and fighting styles to suit the needs of a battle. In numerous occasions, she had won battles simply by using only the most basic and essential techniques employed by a sorcerer, which only prevailed due to superior tactics and her unique strategies. Mitou also has the ability to see to the very heart of a matter, being able to grasp the gravity of a situation with remarkable understanding and clarity, and to make extremely tough calls in split seconds, seeming to deliberate on hundreds of matters in a mere moment. She was also very skilled at defusing tense moments verbally, showing linguistic talents as well. Using all of her wit and charm to prevent friction, Mitou has shown to be a very shrewd negotiator.

## Equipment

Normally, Love Stick is a long wooden stick which splits into two rounded points at the top. The top has bandages wrapped on all three sections of the stick. When activated as a Cursed Tool, the main body of the stick remains the same, but the tip has many additional details. The top grows in thickness and has several bolts attached to a lighter square just above a dark body. The bandages that held the two splitting sticks turn into a rope holding two blades onto the main stick body. At the bottom of the blade, there's four spikes, two on each side. And on the edge, there's two rounded blades protruding outwards. Thanks to the rounded part at the tip of the stick, the Love Stick can be thrown and used to hold down humans, cats and Cursed Spirits should the half-circle actually fit; Love Stick has incredibly mobility, with Mitou being able to spin it and throw it at incredible speeds with ease, unleashing a barrage of attacks on its victims; and though it's a wooden stick, the Love Stick is able to slice due to it's blades, Mitou is able to use her cursed tool to slice up things like clay dolls, human anatomy and cursed spirits. More importantly Mitou uses the Love Stick in conjunction with her Aero Noise technique, such as sensing others by sticking Love Stick in the ground and feeling the vibrations to locate where a person is when her vision is obscured. Or simply doing the opposite, as Decapitating Waves would shatter her arm if her palm were covered, Mitou can use the Love Stick instead of her arm. As it has all the necessary components to launch Decapitating Airwaves with three opening for output, two at the top and one at the bottom.
