Gege Akutami, creator of Jujutsu Kaisen, compared the taste of Sukuna's fingers to soap. Do you eat them?

The students and faculty of Jujutsu High are singles

A faculty member is divorced

Muta and Miwa share an intimate conversation on the train to Shibuya before going to Jujutsu Kaisen.

JJK viewers watched Nobara and Megumi set up Yuji and Yuka in Season 2, Episode 30, “It's Like That”. And Mechamaru's unrequited love for Miwa is an important b-plot. But are the other characters “so?”

Akutami said that the only jujutsu high faculty member was married, Masamichi Yaga. However, now he is divorced. The mangaka does not reveal whether her former friend is a magician or not.

Otherwise, according to Akutami, all the faculty and students at Jujutsu High are graduates, so they can cook and clean by themselves. (Sorry, YutaMaki fans. There are no confirmations for you. No news for you either, SatoSugus.)

For those interested in Nobara Kugisaki, Akutami revealed what she likes about her partner. When asked what her type of man is, Akutami answers with Oda Nobunaga. A brash leader with a short fuse who practices martial arts? yes That suits Kugisaki's nature.


Akutami's guide shows the limited flirting skills of its characters. In the “Tell Us! Akutami Sensei Collection” section, the author confirms that Itadori was not popular at his old school because the girls who were interested in him did not know how to communicate their feelings. So, he probably doesn't know when someone has a crush on him.

Megumi Fushigoro is another example of someone seriously lacking in the dating game. When asked how the eccentric sorcerer would turn down someone who is interested in him, Akutami replied, “I'm sorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.” oops That's awkward.

Yuji has many talents besides fighting

He is a kitchen whiz

Yuji beams with happiness as he describes his love for the sushi that roams Jujutsu Kaisen.

Although Yuji is known for his physical prowess and ability as a vessel, he also has many hidden talents. When asked about Karaoke Juju Stroll in Volume 2, Akutami claims that Yuji is the best singer in his friend group.


Itadori also boasts top chef skills in the kitchen. In the “Group Character Questions and Answers” segment, Akutami answered a question regarding Itadori's cooking:

  • Question: Itadori is the best cook in the first years, but who is the better cook between Fushigoro and Kugisaki?”
  • A: They are almost identical. Both can cook to a certain extent.”

Satoru Gojo is a lightweight

Gozo stands shyly in front of Nanami while a pattern of golden flowers glows behind her in jujutsu kaisen.

One of the silliest snippets from Akutami's “Group Character Q&A” is the breakdown of the teacher's drinking habits. Each category of drinking received Akutami's first place selection and runner-up.

Satoru Gojo


Who would have thought that the most powerful wizard in jujutsu wizardry couldn't handle his alcohol? However, once you think about it, Gozo's low tolerance makes sense. A person with six eyes should feel the effects of alcohol more acutely because of their heightened senses.

Utahim topped Naobito as the top drinker. It is assumed that Naobito will come first because he spent the entire Shibuya incident drunk.

Shoko and Kento's ranking as the heaviest drinkers makes the most sense. Usually, the heaviest drinkers are the best at keeping their cool – and those two know how to stay sober. Also, Shoko smokes and according to the National Institutes of Health, smokers are 1.32 times more likely to smoke than non-smokers.
