Toji Fushiguro’s Abilities

■Heavenly Restriction (Physically Gifted)
The core of Toji Fushiguro’s abilities lies in his unique condition known as "Heavenly Restriction (Physically Gifted)." This rare trait in the Jujutsu world grants him superhuman capabilities, including extraordinary physical prowess, heightened senses, and resistance to curses, at the cost of completely lacking cursed energy.

Extraordinary Physical Abilities: Toji possesses exceptional speed, stamina, and explosive power, making him a dominant force in hand-to-hand combat. Notably, his calculated attacks were powerful enough to bypass Satoru Gojo's "Limitless Technique," demonstrating the peak of his physical abilities.

Heightened Senses: Despite lacking cursed energy, Toji’s sharp senses allow him to detect cursed spirits and accurately assess his surroundings, giving him a strategic edge.

Immunity to Cursed Energy Detection: Since he has no cursed energy, he cannot be detected by Jujutsu Sorcerers or cursed spirits, making him highly effective in assassination missions.

Resistance to Domain Expansions: Toji’s lack of cursed energy renders him immune to the effects of Domain Expansions, the ultimate trump cards of sorcerers.

Additionally, his inability to generate cursed energy means that he cannot exorcise curses without cursed tools. However, with access to such tools, he is capable of exorcising even special-grade curses. In close combat, Toji’s unmatched strength allows him to defeat Grade 2 sorcerers with just his bare hands, and even against sorcerers equipped with techniques, he reigns supreme.

His unparalleled combat prowess remains etched in the memories of many within the Zenin family, often accompanied by fear. Some even claim that "the current existence of the Zenin family is due to Toji’s whims," acknowledging that he could have easily wiped out the family had he chosen to. This terrifying strength was evident to anyone who saw him, including Naoya Zenin, a promising candidate for the next family head. Naoya was awestruck by Toji’s overwhelming power, secretly idolizing him as the embodiment of an "absolute force."

■Use of Cursed Tools and Strategy
In addition to his extraordinary physical abilities, Toji Fushiguro enhances his combat prowess by skillfully utilizing a variety of cursed tools. His mastery of these tools has solidified his reputation as a fearsome opponent. Some of the notable cursed tools he used include:

Amanosakahoko (天逆鉾): A special-grade cursed tool capable of forcibly nullifying techniques. Toji used this tool to bypass Satoru Gojo’s Limitless Technique.

Soul Liberation Blade (釈魂刀): A special-grade cursed tool capable of severing the soul of anything it strikes. Its power transcends physical destruction, making it a highly dangerous weapon.

Chain of a Thousand Miles (万里ノ鎖): A chain with infinite extension and contraction, suitable for long-range attacks and versatile combat scenarios.

Playful Cloud (游雲): A special-grade cursed tool that amplifies its destructive power based on the wielder’s soul. Combined with Toji’s superhuman abilities, this tool further magnifies his overwhelming strength.

Toji’s strategic use of cursed tools in combination with his natural physical abilities and combat tactics underscores his exceptional skill as a warrior.


Family Relationship

■Connection with His Son, Megumi Fushiguro
Toji Fushiguro harbored complex emotions toward his son, Megumi Fushiguro. On the surface, his decision to sell Megumi to the Zenin family may appear as an abandonment of parental responsibility. However, some interpretations suggest that Toji made this decision while considering the possibility that Megumi, as a sorcerer, might receive better treatment within the Zenin family.

One of the most memorable moments in Toji’s story occurs during his final moments. After a fierce battle with Satoru Gojo, Toji, fatally wounded, uses his last strength to tell Gojo, “Do whatever you want with my son (Megumi).” This line is often interpreted as a subtle expression of his love and care as a father in his final moments.

During the Shibuya Incident, Toji is temporarily resurrected through a séance technique and faces Megumi directly. In this encounter, Toji realizes that Megumi is his son and, in a moment of relief, remarks, “It’s a good thing your last name isn’t Zenin.” Afterward, Toji takes his own life, exiting the story once again. This interaction further highlights the conflicted and nuanced nature of his love for his son, showcasing the complexity of his character as a father.


Toji Fushiguro’s Key Scenes in the Anime

■Hidden Inventory / Premature Death Arc
Toji Fushiguro makes his first appearance as the "Sorcerer Killer" after accepting an assassination request targeting Riko Amanai, the Star Plasma Vessel.

Through his business partner, Shiu Kong, Toji receives the assassination request from the Time Vessel Association, who hired him to eliminate Riko Amanai. Tasked with protecting Amanai, Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto face Toji in a series of strategic and physical confrontations.

Aware of the threat posed by Gojo, Toji employs a variety of tactics to throw them off guard. These include placing a bounty on Amanai, drawing in mercenary curse users, and kidnapping Riko’s caretaker, Misato Kuroi, to weaken their morale. By exhausting Gojo and Geto both mentally and physically, Toji successfully ambushes them when they return to Jujutsu High.

Toji critically injures Gojo, rendering him unable to fight, and kills Riko Amanai. Following this, he defeats Geto in combat and delivers Amanai’s body, claiming the reward for his mission.

However, Toji's victory is short-lived. Gojo, having miraculously survived and undergone an awakening, launches a counterattack. In the ensuing battle, Toji is defeated after Gojo uses the Hollow Technique: Purple, which obliterates most of Toji's left side.

In his final moments, Toji reveals to Gojo that his son, Megumi Fushiguro, is being sold to the Zenin family.

■Shibuya Incident Arc
During the Shibuya Incident, Toji Fushiguro is temporarily resurrected through the séance technique of Ogami Baba. By transforming her "grandchild" into Toji’s form using her ability, Ogami Baba successfully summons Toji’s physical appearance and strength. This resurrected form of Toji easily defeats Takuma Ino in combat.

However, an unexpected phenomenon occurs: Toji’s original personality and consciousness, which were not supposed to manifest, override the séance technique. This anomaly arises due to Toji’s unique nature, likely linked to his Heavenly Restriction. The grandchild’s soul is unable to withstand the dominance of Toji’s physical and mental data and is completely erased. Toji then instantly closes in on the shocked Ogami Baba and kills her without hesitation.

Despite Ogami Baba’s death, her technique does not deactivate as it normally would. This is because Toji, lacking any cursed energy due to his Heavenly Restriction, does not consume cursed energy to sustain the technique. As a result, Toji’s manifestation continues indefinitely, effectively turning him into a "rampaging puppet." Unless the grandchild’s body is destroyed, the séance cannot be undone.

In this resurrected state, Toji seeks out powerful opponents purely by instinct. He interrupts the battle between Maki Zenin, Naobito Zenin, Kento Nanami, Megumi Fushiguro, and the special-grade cursed spirit Dagon. Forcing his way into Dagon’s domain through a breach created by Megumi, Toji overpowers the cursed spirit using Playful Cloud, which he steals from Maki.

Later, Toji encounters Megumi during his rampage. In the midst of their confrontation, he realizes that Megumi is his son. This revelation frees Toji from his frenzied state. In a poignant moment, he acknowledges Megumi’s independence by remarking, "Not Zen'in? That's good to hear." With this final expression of paternal affection, Toji takes his own life, ending his temporary return to the story.
