Yuji Itadori

Sukuna Itadori (twin brother)

The Dancing Dragons (parents, deceased)

**Yuji Itadori** (also known as "**Impact**") is a reccurring character in the *Meta Academy* series*.* He is characterized by his kind nature and enthusiastic disposition.

## Background Information

### Pre-series

Yuji's parents died when he was about seven, leaving him, his twin brother, Sukuna, and his older sister, Saori, to live with his grandfather. The siblings were often bullied at school, with Saori being bullied for being quiet and a pushover, Sukuna being socially outcast for being "too creepy", and Yuji, being made fun of for being daft and too soft. The torment sometimes got so vicious that the three would come back home covered in wounds and bleeding in some places.

When Yuji was 14, his sister would often confess to him that she hated going back to school each morning with how fervent her bullies were. A few months later, a few weeks after some of the harshest tyrannizing Yuji's sister had faced to date, Saori took her own life out of desperation, her soul finally being crushed. Sukuna, after being heavily hit with grief over his sister's death, killed and/or severely injured all of Saori's bullies out of rage, spiraling down a path into villainy. After all of the terrible things that had happened to him and his siblings, Yuji resolved to do everything he could to make sure that nobody would be hurt so terribly like his siblings and him again. It was also around this time that he discovered his power, after almost breaking a wall after punching it out of frustration.

### Physical Appearance

Yuji is a young man of average height and with a deceptively slim physique. He has light skin and dyed pink hair in an undercut fashion.

Yuji's suit is a black long sleeve shirt resembling a gakuran over a red hoodie, black pants, and red shoes.

### Personality

Yuji is a fair person who truly cares 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 highly commends "the value of life," and to this end, he will ensure that others receive a "proper death". Because of this, he believes that it is morally unethical for him to take another human life, and tries to avoid any possibility of doing so unless as a last resort.

He is also not without his more energetic and outgoing traits. Yuji is very compassionate, honest, kind, and will keep his word. Yuji is highly passionate whenever he's focused on achieving certain goals and being quite stubborn when confronted about them. He is also quite naïve in certain aspects of life, but is shown to be a quick learner, capable of adapting to his surroundings. He has a bit of a tendency to lash out at people when he feels like he's under pressure. He still has the tendency to be kinda stupid and awkward in most situations, though.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

* **Energy manipulation**: Yuji's powers allow him to augment his strength by controlling the amount of energy he puts into his attacks. It's tricky to get energy to flow the way he wants it to, so his energy flow is often irregular, with his punches having second impacts after they land. If he really concentrates, he can attack with a very fast speed, but this is exceedingly rare.

### Abilites

* **Athleticism**: Yuji is very good at sports, with his particular favorites being volleyball and track and field. He's also rather adept at hand-to-hand combat.

## Other

* Yuji really enjoys physical activities like playing sports and working out. He also really enjoys spending time with his friends, and often spends a lot of time making special things for his friends to show his appreciation for them. His favorite foods are noodles and rice bowls with other foods on top.
* Yuji despises those who hurt other people and/or get enjoyment out of doing so. He also isn't really one for mental things. He also doesn't like getting flustered or being awkward, but does it anyway. He doesn't like most bitter foods.
