Hanami

## Introduction

Hanami is the type of spirit who cares for the planet that the humans have been abusing for thousands of years. He wishes only to kill humans in order to sacrifice them so they can be sages to a cleaner world controlled by cursed spirits that will respect the earth. Hanami believes in Jogo's ideals along with Dagon, as they want to replace humanity with cursed spirits because they feel curses are the true humans.

In contrast to Hanami's peaceful convictions, Mahito has encouraged him to embrace his savagery as a spirit. In the heat of battle, Hanami learned to embrace his instincts and began to enjoy the thrill of the fight, allowing it to drive him forward beyond his limits.

Hanami has a close kinship with his allies, willing to go out of his way and briefly challenge Satoru Gojo in order to rescue Jogo from being exorcised. He follows Mahito and ultimately sacrifices himself for their group's ultimate plan in Shibuya.

### Character Details

Hanami is a special grade cursed spirit with an incredibly durable body, powerful cursed techniques that can control plants, and an uncanny ability to hide his presence more effectively than others. He was able to take Satoru Gojo by surprise and momentarily take advantage of Yuji's vulnerability using his Flower Field and a wooden monster in order to rescue Jogo. This was achievable due to a combination of Hanami's high intellect as a curse as well as his escaping abilities and hidden presence. Gojo himself commended Hanami's ability to run away, as he was able to evade the Six Eyes' strong perception. Satoru even found Hanami far more threatening than the straightforward Jogo.

Hanami was able to pass through the barriers of Jujutsu High due to his unique skillset and was the cornerstone of his groups assault on Jujutsu High during their raid of the cursed warehouse. The special grade curse was able to take on six of the school's most elite students, rendering the majority of them unable to fight after encountering him. Additionally, Hanami was able to survive Satoru Gojo's Hollow Technique: Purple after reaching his limit fighting against Yuji and Aoi Todo, although barely clinging to life.

**Notable Attacks/Techniques:**

* **Hyper Regeneration**: Due to his nature as a special grade cursed spirit, Hanami can easily reinforce his body with cursed energy in order to regenerate lost limbs in an instant. Regained limbs maintain the same integrity as the rest of Hanami's incredibly durable body. He can regenerate his eye branch weak points as well but not if they are fully compromised and separated from his body completely.

* **Disaster Plants**: Hanami's technique allows him to manifest the illusions of cursed plants into reality. While he appears to be manipulating it cursed energy, he's actually creating the cursed plants he controls with cursed energy. Any plant or wood attack can be erased from reality just as quickly as it's manifested.

* **Cursed Bud**: Hanami can launch buds that feed on the cursed energy of whoever it attaches to. The more cursed energy the sorcerer uses to protect themselves from a cursed bud projectile, the deeper it will plant into them. Hanami can also create a giant flower that spawns a barrage of cursed buds.

* **Flower Field**: Hanami can create a circle of flowers around his opponents that distract them with a curse that takes away their desire to fight. Hanami can launch a long range projectile that can activate this ability as well. Flower Field can be weakened depending on Hanami's injuries and Aoi considered it to be one of the curse's weaker moves.

* **Domain Expansion**: Hanami possess the ability to cast domain expansion but the details of his innate domain and his can't miss function are mainly unknown. He attempted to use his domain expansion during his fight against Aoi and Yuji after he charged the flower on his shoulder with cursed energy to prevent them to avoid that technique. However, this was interrupted when the Curtain placed by Juzo was dispelled.

* **Domain Amplification**: This technique neutralizes all cursed techniques it comes into contact with; however, rather than remaining in a designated space, it acts as a fluid shield that covers the user's body completely, similar to an aura.
