Noritoshi Kamo - Character Overview

■Noritoshi Kamo’s Distinct Features and Personality
Although his eyes usually appear closed, when he activates his Blood Manipulation Technique, Flowing Red Scale: Stack (赤鱗躍動, Sekirin Yakudo - Sai), one of his eyes opens, and a bruise-like blood marking appears around it.

Noritoshi Kamo is a calm and composed individual, deeply proud of his lineage as a member of the prestigious Three Great Jujutsu Families. He values strict order and discipline, yet he is also highly pragmatic, capable of making cold, calculated decisions without hesitation. As a leader among the Kyoto Jujutsu High students, he demonstrates strong leadership and tactical intelligence, allowing him to guide his peers effectively in battle.

However, Noritoshi also has a rigid and overly serious personality, often displaying an unintentionally humorous side due to his strict adherence to logic. A prime example of this occurs when Aoi Todo attempts to leave a discussion to watch his favorite idol, Takada-chan, on TV—Noritoshi, in a completely deadpan manner, suggests that he should simply record the program instead.

■The Meaning Behind His Name
Interestingly, Noritoshi Kamo shares the exact same name as Noritoshi Kamo (加茂憲倫), the infamous “disgrace” of the Kamo Clan, known for his unethical experiments with cursed techniques.

Initially, it was believed that Noritoshi’s name was given as a form of mockery, meant to emphasize his status as the child of a concubine. However, it was later revealed that his mother had intentionally given him the name as both an act of defiance against the Kamo Clan and as a message to her son, hoping he would eventually leave that family behind and return to her side.

■Cursed Technique: Blood Manipulation (赤血操術, Sekketsu Sojutsu)
Noritoshi Kamo possesses Blood Manipulation, a hereditary cursed technique passed down within the Kamo Clan. This technique allows him to freely control his own blood, as well as pre-prepared blood packs, which he uses in battle to extend his combat endurance.

Techniques
- Flowing Red Scale: Stack (赤鱗躍動, Sekirin Yakudō - Sai)A body-enhancing technique that increases blood flow, body temperature, and red blood cell count, drastically improving his physical abilities. Essentially, it acts as a self-doping technique.
- Crimson Binding (赤縛, Sekibaku)A technique that shapes blood into ropes, allowing him to bind and restrain his opponents.
- Slicing Exorcism (苅祓, Kari Barai)A ranged attack technique where he hurls his blood like a shuriken, using it as a projectile weapon.
- Convergence (百斂, Byakuren)A technique where Noritoshi compresses his blood to the absolute limit, increasing its density and potency.
- Piercing Blood (穿血, Senketsu)A long-range attack where he fires the compressed blood from Convergence, creating a highly penetrative projectile capable of piercing through obstacles and enemies with immense force.
