Jujutsu Kaisen manga is currently in its final stretch after killing off several characters – so here’s a list of the 10 strongest characters still alive and kicking.
Jujutsu Kaisen’s brutal storytelling doesn’t even spare the most popular characters, such as Gojo and Nanami, and so many more. The story is set in a world where negative emotions pile up and give birth to cursed spirits threatening people’s safety.
Jujutsu sorcerers risk their lives to defeat those curses and also guide young students to do the same. However, the battle against curses is never-ending since they will continue to exist as long as humans do. If that wasn’t bad enough, curse users also go against the sorcerers.
Hence, the Jujutsu world has suffered countless casualties over the years and continues to do so. Jujutsu Kaisen manga is currently in its final stretch, so there are still some incredibly strong fighters who are still fighting the ancient villain to protect the villains. Check out our list of the 10 strongest characters still alive in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga. Warning: This article contains spoilers from the manga!
10. Takuma Ino
Takuma Ino may be a Grade 2 sorcerer, but he has improved significantly before the battle against the strongest. Apart from his unique cursed technique, he now wields Nanami’s blade, which is now a cursed tool with the Ratio Technique imbued in it. Ino is currently among the sorcerers fighting against the King of Curses.
9. Atsuya Kusakabe
Kusakabe has always been an underrated character in Jujutsu Kaisen. But the battle against the strongest reveals he’s the strongest first-grade sorcerer. He makes up for his lack of innate technique by mastering Anti-Domain Techniques like New Shadow Style. Kusakabe also taught Yuji the same
8. Aoi Todo
Aoi Todo returns for the first time since the Shibuya Incident Arc. He never appears again after his final act of applause before confirming he cannot use his Boogie Woogie. The series never mentioned anything about Todo until Chapter 259. Todo makes an unexpected appearance and joins Yuji in the battle against the strongest.
7. Maki Zenin
After losing against Jogo in the Shibuya Incident, Maki goes through a lot of trials before unlocking the full extent of her heavenly-restricted body, which is comparable to Toji Fushiguro. Maki is now able to see curses without her glasses and wields the Split Soul Katana that Mai left behind for her. The cursed tool has the ability to bypass any physical resistance to cut right at the soul of any target.

6. Yuji Itadori
Although Maki now surpasses Yuji in terms of physical strength, the latter has overall cursed energy, which helps him make up for it. Yuji can also use Black Flash, which multiplies the output of his physical attacks. However, the Jujutsu Kaisen manga has yet to reveal the true extent of his powers, so there’s a chance he might rise up the ranks in this list once we find out the secret behind his unusual arm.
5. Kinji Hakari
With incredible physical strength, cursed energy, unusual innate technique, and a terrifying Domain Expansion, Hakari is easily one of the strongest characters in Jujutsu Kaisen manga. He first appears in the Culling Game arc. Gojo had listed him among the three students who had the ability to surpass him. Hakari’s innate technique, “Private Pure Love Train,” is primarily applied through domain expansion, “Idle Death Gamble.”
4. Takako Uro
Takako Uro is one of the incarnated ancient sorcerers from the Heian Era. Her innate technique allows her to control the sky like a tangible object. She triggers her technique, Thin Ice Breaker, by hitting the surface of the sky instead of hitting her opponent directly. The surface then shatters like thin ice, injuring her opponent. She can also use Domain Expansion, but the series doesn’t reveal it.
3. Hiromi Higuruma
Higuruma joined the Sukuna raid and showed abilities comparable to Satoru Gojo. However, because he only became a Jujutsu sorcerer two months ago, he was still inexperienced. He learned to use Reverse Cursed Technique mid-battle. His innate technique Judgeman, is directly linked to his Domain Expansion. The Domain judges its targets based on their crimes and punishes them accordingly.
2. Angel (Hana Kurusu)
Angel is an incarnated ancient sorcerer from the Heian era who now exists with Hana Kurusu in the same body. She is also the one who unsealed Satoru Gojo using her nullification ability called “Jacob’s Ladder.” Her innate technique, “Technique Nullification,” allows her to completely nullify any and all cursed techniques without limitations. Even barriers and cursed objects are no exception, both of which include the special grade object, Prison Realm.
1. Yuta Okkotsu
Yuta is the only special-grade sorcerer currently alive in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga. His abilities are second only to Satoru Gojo, and the latter has confirmed several times that Yuta has the potential to surpass him. The young sorcerer’s innate technique, “Copy,” paired with the special-grade apparition Rika, makes him unstoppable. He is currently healing from the Sukuna’s attack after he cleared the path for Maki.
