Yuji Itadori (虎いた杖どり悠ゆう仁じ, Itadori Yūji?) is the main protagonist of the Jujutsu Kaisen series. He is the son of Jin Itadori and Kaori Itadori, and the grandson of Wasuke Itadori. Yuji was living a normal life in Sendai City until he encountered Megumi and ate one of Sukuna's fingers. After becoming Sukuna's vessel, Yuji began attending Tokyo Jujutsu High alongside Megumi and Nobara as first-year students.

Yuji is a young man of average height and appears to have a slender build when wearing baggy clothing, but actually has a lean and muscular physique. He also has relatively large light brown eyes and spiky pink hair (brownish blonde in the manga) that's styled in an undercut fashion. When becoming the vessel for Sukuna after eating his finger, he gains a second pair of eyes that only open when Sukuna controls his body along with his many markings. At the start of the series, Yuji wore a light-colored hooded jacket, high-cuffed black pants, and white shoes. However, in the anime, his pants were denim, and his shoes were bright red. When Yuji enrolled into the Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College, he began wearing his version of the uniform; a black long sleeve shirt resembling a gakuran over a red hoodie, black pants, and red shoes. He gains a noticeable scar between his two eyes and a smaller scar on his left labial commissure of the mouth during the Shibuya Incident. Both scars were caused by Mahito; the first one was inflicted when the cursed spirit surprise-attacked him with a blade on his fist,[3] and the second one was inflicted when Yuji battled him after his transformation.[4] He lost the second pair of eyes that only open when Sukuna controls his body along with his many markings after the latter transferred to Megumi Fushiguro as his new vessel. Yuji also lost his pinky finger when Sukuna ripped off and fed it to Megumi.[5]

However, Yuji's initial belief's on the value of a life as well as "proper deaths" have been greatly challenged overtime, primarily during the Shibuya Incident. When Sukuna took possession of Yuji's body after forced consumption of his fingers, he proceeded to massacre countless innocents within the city save for Megumi, leaving Yuji traumatized from the event, wishing he was dead and blaming himself for all the deaths. This would only worsen as Yuji later witnessed Mahito kill Nanami and mortally wound Nobara making Yuji lose hope in being able to save anyone, before Todo's intervention. Eventually after a grueling battle between Mahito, Yuji spoke to the curse spirit admitting that they were alike in a way while also declaring pure and utter hatred for the latter, promising to kill Mahito: no matter how much time passed or how many times he is reborn, again and again with no need to justify his actions as anything but his nature, believing that some reasoning for his actions would eventually be found centuries after his own death. Following the incident in Shibuya, Yuji's disposition grew more solemn than before, as well as developing a change ideology; that his purpose was to be a "cog in the machine that functions to exorcise curses.[6] While still wanting to save and help people, Yuji was racked with unshakable guilt and felt that he deserved death, to the point he would even willingly take blame for the crimes committed by Sukuna when prompted by an enemy, only slightly relenting when speaking with Hiromi Higuruma. While Yuji still retained most of his traits of being good-natured and friendly, he would act closed off and abrasive towards someone unfamiliar as seen with Hana Kurusu, admitting that this behavior stemmed from fear of the latter replacing Nobara before apologizing later.

Yuji is a fair person who truly cares for not only his comrades but anyone he views as people with their own wills, despite how deep or shallow his connection to them is. He highly commends "the value of life," and to this end, he will ensure that others receive a "proper death". Because of this, he believes that it is morally unethical for him to take another human life, and tries to avoid any possibility of doing so unless as a last resort. He is also not without his more energetic and outgoing traits. Such as his frequent comedic moments where he was seen alongside Nobara Kugisaki gushing about Tokyo and his eagerness to train with Gojo or even when entertaining both Junpei and his mother. Yuji is also highly passionate whenever he's focused on achieving certain goals and being quite stubborn when confronted about them, such as when Yaga questioned why Yuji wanted to become a sorcerer. He is also quite naïve due to his inexperience in the world of cursed spirits and jujutsu sorcerers, but is shown to be a quick learner, capable of adapting to his surroundings and picking up how to use cursed energy quickly. Although usually composed, good-natured and friendly, Yuji can be angered quickly in the face of pure malice after witnessing firsthand the cruelty that curses were capable of, particularly Mahito's inhuman exploitation of Junpei. Yuji felt so profoundly disgusted that he felt a genuine desire to kill for the first time in his life and has a very intense yet focused hatred towards the cursed spirit. One of Yuji's defining traits is his willingness to sacrifice himself for others, triggered by his grandfather's last words to him to die surrounded by others. When he and Megumi were under the threat of being killed by a curse, Yuji impulsively swallowed Sukuna's finger to exorcise the curse and save them despite having met Megumi for the first time on that day.

Yuji's deep seated and focused hatred returned when Sukuna enacted on a plan to transfer his soul into Megumi Fushiguro through a force finger transfer, taking full possession of his body. Yuji fought furiously against the King of Curses but to avail as he escaped off, with Yuji vowing that he'd "eat anything in order to kill Sukuna" as well as freeing Megumi. This would span into a month long preparation Raid on the King of Curses where Yuji trained himself to get strong enough to face him. Despite everything, Yuji felt a sense of pity for Sukuna, to a point where he locked the sorcerer in his Domain to wander through his memories growing up. During this point Yuji's ideology changed once more, explaining that he initially believed life was about fulfilling a set role and that dying fulfilling that role would be a proper death. But this was no longer the case to Yuji, believing that simply living a mundane life, would still produce value in the fragments of memories continuing to exist after death. Yuji further stated that the way someone died did not matter, but rather it was the idea of someone treating those lives as worthless that he could not forgive and that human beings are not tools born with a predetermined role, be it good or bad, and that there is no fundamental answer as to what makes one human, while also reaffirming that if Sukuna will not release Megumi's soul, then he will kill him.[7]

Immense Strength: Yuji is quite powerful even without the usage of cursed energy, as he can destroy walls with ease,[10] throw a lead ball with enough force to bend a soccer goalpost,[11] and even throw a car.[12] As powerful as he is without cursed energy, especially when it comes to fighting, his exceptional strength can often be augmented to further levels with the usage of cursed energy, the Divergent Fist technique, and Black Flash, allowing him to exorcise cursed spirits. His unique strength has also been compared to Kento Nanami, a Grade 1 sorcerer. He can even harm Hanami and Choso, two curses who have remarkable durability and toughness with the former being near-impossible to damage. During his fight with Sukuna, Yuji jumped twenty stories from two buildings to reach Sukuna after the latter took control over Megumi's body. Also in his fight with Sukuna, Yuji was able to kick a massive chunk of rubble towards Sukuna, momentarily stopping him.

Overall Skill Level: Yuji is one of Tokyo Jujutsu High's most powerful and talented students. Satoru Gojo places him on the same level of potential as Yuta Okkotsu and Kinji Hakari, the three students who he believes will surpass his strength.[8] Despite having no connections to the jujutsu world before a few months prior to the Shibuya Incident, Yuji is able to contend with and defeat Grade 1 and Special Grade curses. Yuji was gifted with superhuman physical abilities which he masterfully combines with his cursed energy. Yuji is also able to contain Sukuna with no ill effects, which allows him to perceive the shape of souls. This enables him to harm Mahito, whose control over the shape of his soul otherwise renders him immune to injury.[9]

Immense Speed and Reflexes: Yuji is shown to have great speed and can finish a 50-meter track within 3 seconds, implying he can run at speeds of 60.02 km/h (37.3 mph).[13] He's also been shown to dodge the attacks of all five opposing sorcerers from the students from Kyoto Jujutsu High who tried to murder him. He has been shown to be fast enough to evade Choso's Piercing Blood, which travels at the speed of sound, proving he has superb reflexes. During Yuji and Maki's fight against Sukuna while possessing Megumi, Yuji was able to keep up with their magnificent speed and reflexes while being grievously wounded from his previous battle. Immense Durability: Yuji's durability surpasses the average sorcerer. He was able to continuously take hits from Choso during their fight and even Piercing Blood, an attack moving at the speed of sound didn't pierce Yuji immediately. He was also able to withstand numerous attacks from Mahito in his Instant Spirit Body of Distorted Killing form and continue fighting. After Sukuna took control over Megumi's body, he punched Yuji through multiple buildings and Yuji survived that, and afterwards was able to fight him and even survive Sukuna relentlessly attacking him with Dismantle and keep fighting him with Maki's help.

Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Yuji is one of the greatest, if not the greatest practitioner of martial arts in the series. His fighting prowess goes toe to toe with Aoi Todo, another extremely proficient martial artist. Yuji can effortlessly defeat a Semi-Grade 1 cursed spirit, and challenge Special Grade curses purely using martial arts and infusing his style with cursed energy. Yuji also possesses an impressive control over his attacks, being able to pause his punch a moment before impact and adjust his power into several counter blows. Yuji's fighting style is usually depicted as being very acrobatic with his movements, allowing him to strike his opponent in several different angles which also allow him to evade several oncoming attacks, essentially giving him great offensive and defensive capabilities. If the initial strike he is going for has been blocked, he is able to use high flying kicks, unorthodox punches, and even a knee strike to retaliate. He is also skilled in a martial arts style known as Taido Martial Arts, which grants him the ability to perform Knee Release, an ancient martial arts technique that eliminates starting movements and allows Yuji to release his knees, hips, and shoulders to guide him to his opponent's feet instead of falling down. By combining the technique mentioned above with Taido Martial Arts, Yuji can perform Manji Kick, where he uses the momentum to throw his right leg upwards and land a kick to his opponent's head. By adding cursed energy to this attack, it can harm cursed spirits.

Immense Stamina: Fitting his other superhuman capabilities, Yuji possesses a large amount of stamina and has often been shown continuing to fight despite grievous injuries for longer periods of time without rest, such as having his hand severed and his fingers disintegrated when battling the Finger Bearer, allowing for Megumi to escape with Nobara. He was also able to resist several poisonous stab wounds from when he tried to stop Junpei Yoshino from hurting anyone at his school. His incredible stamina is especially shown afterwards when he sustained grievous injuries from Mahito but was able to continue attacking. Proficient Learner: Yuji is a curious person and an earnest student. He is also good at progressing - being quick at Satoru's Movie Appreciation Training, and realizing Aoi Todo's advice quickly. According to Akutami, he is the best at cooking among the first years trio. He was able to master using martial arts alongside cursed energy and honed it to a level with which he can take on Special Grade curses. He was even able to use Black Flash four times in a row a short time after he had even learnt of its existence. Another testament to his development was his growing understanding of cursed energy within just a month prior to his battle against Sukuna, aside from drastically improving his cursed energy reinforcement techniques, Yuji managed to grasp the complex nature of reverse cursed technique and learned how to use and perform it efficiently to heal himself.

Poison Resistance: Since Yuji is the host to Sukuna, he has a resistance to all kinds of poison. Yuji will feel the pain from the poison, but he is mostly unaffected. This ability was first demonstrated during his fight with Junpei when he could resist Moon Dregs' poison. It was demonstrated again when Yuji resisted the effects of Eso and Kechizu's Decay. Weapon Mastery: Yuji was not trained in the use of weapons; however, due to his physical power and talent, he can still become proficient with one quickly.

Jujutsu Cursed Energy Manipulation

Convergence (百びゃく斂れん, Byakuren?): An extension technique that compresses and condenses the user's blood to its absolute limit with cursed energy. The blood orb created by this technique is required for using Piercing Blood and Supernova. Due to his inexperience, Yuji is unable to perform Convergence very well.[16] NoPicAvailable Piercing Blood (穿せん血けつ, Senketsu?): After using Convergence, the user clasps their hands around the blood orb and fires a blood beam that travels at the speed of sound. Yuji used this technique against Sukuna during their fight, damaging his face.[16] Due to being unable to use Convergence, Yuji took a pressurized blood orb created by Choso in order to perform Piercing Blood.[17]

Dismantle (解カイ, Kai?): Shrine's default slashing attack that can be used against cursed spirits and sorcerers to great effectiveness.[20] Unlike Sukuna, Yuji can only deliver this attack through physical contact. Using a binding vow, Yuji increased the technique's effectiveness at separating souls by narrowing its target to the boundary between Sukuna and Megumi's soul.[21]

Blood Manipulation (赤せっ血けつ操そう術じゅつ, Sekketsu Sōjutsu?): After absorbing Cursed Womb: Death Painting No. 4-9, Yuji was engraved with Blood Manipulation, the inherited technique of the Kamo Clan.[15] Using this innate technique, Yuji can manipulate his own blood.

Reverse Cursed Technique (反はん転てん術じゅつ式しき, Hanten Jutsushiki?): Within the month before his battle against Sukuna, Yuji learned how to use reverse cursed technique to heal himself. Using reverse cursed technique, he regenerated his body after suffering a Cleave from Sukuna.[22] He later used it to heal the wounds he received from two of Sukuna's Dismantle slashes.[23]

New Shadow Style: Simple Domain (シン・陰かげ流りゅう　簡かん易い領りょう域いき, Shin Kageryū: Kan'i Ryōiki?): An anti-domain technique Yuji learned by switching souls with Atsuya Kusakabe.[24] It is used to disable a domain's guaranteed-hit effect by neutralizing its barrier. Yuji activated it in response to Sukuna's impromptu Malevolent Shrine, allowing him to resist its slashes for almost 99 seconds before finally crumbling.[25]

Equipment Cursed Tool Slaughter Demon (Anime) Slaughter Demon (屠と坐ざ魔ま, Tozama?)[26]: A cursed tool given to Yuji by Satoru Gojo, originally belonging to Maki Zenin. It's effective against curses. Slaughter Demon was broken by a Finger Bearer, a special grade cursed spirit.[27]
