List of Jujutsu Kaisen characters
The following article is a list of characters from the manga series "Jujutsu Kaisen". Concept and creation. Regarding the process of character creation, the author Gege Akutami claimed that they must fall within the canons of "shōnen" manga in order to capture the attention of readers. Yuji is largely inspired by Akutami's older brother, who is the opposite of Akutami, according to the author's own words, as he had succeeded in sports and study. Akutami said that the message of "Jujutsu Kaisen" is that nobody has the absolute truth, not the "good guys  nor the bad guys", and if nobody is right, then nobody is wrong either, and that each character acts according to their own ethics. The Sensui arc of "YuYu Hakusho" inspired Akutami to create evil characters with the goal of eradicating humanity, for whom the readers, nevertheless, would feel a certain empathy. With Sukuna and Mahito, Akutami wanted to avoid the typical "deep down they are good" idea, stating that they are intrinsically evil beings who like to make humans suffer, but Akutami said that it cannot be proved that they are wrong, adding that Mahito was like Thanos  in "", as Akutami never felt hatred for him. For some characters, like Panda and Toge Inumaki, Akutami first created their visual aspects, while the character of Satoru Gojo came from an idea, which represents the paroxysm of force. Sukuna was Akutami's first favorite character due to his design being influenced by everything that Akutami had read, but Kento Nanami was the first character properly created and developed by Akutami, making him the author's later favorite character.
