Jujutsu Kaisen was praised for the great detail in the character development and the brilliantly written plot, and part of that was the extremely clever villains. More than most other shounen action series, Jujutsu Kaisen boasts a large number of villains who strive to keep their cunning and accomplish their goals to the detriment of the protagonists. .
However, in such a large pool of villains, certain will be smarter than others. This is indeed the case, as the villains of the Jujutsu Kaisen range from muscular guys who rely primarily on force to cunning manipulators who shape the course of society by means of schemes. their plan. With the manga currently in its final season and the anime on track to adapt the best of the series, now is the perfect time to take a look at these villains and rank their intelligence relative to each other. .
10 Dagon
When Dagon was first introduced, he was simply a cursed womb with limited speech abilities. It was only during the events of the Shibuya Incident when he learned of his comrade Hanami’s death that he finally calmed his rage. Within seconds of her reincarnation, Dagon develops the ability to speak more and increases her intelligence to kick in in the battle against Nanami, Naobito, and Maki before she gets a major upgrade. During the course of the battle, he used up his full strength by relentlessly attacking the trio, leaving no room for them to attack. If the revived Toji hadn’t interfered, Dagon would have been able to reach his full potential.
9 Hanami
A cursed spirit that speaks for trees, Hanami is a force not to be underestimated. Their unique speech and incredible durability make them one of JJK’s more compelling villains. Their battle with Yuji and Todo is easily one of the most impressive fights in the anime, and they try to show how they can adapt when the situation calls for it.
Todo’s Boogie-Woogie curse technique is a particularly unpredictable technique in the middle of a battle. Hanami was able to absorb it quickly enough through trial and error due to their enduring resilience. They are also known to perform a tactical retreat when confronted by Gojo himself as their technique allows them to even evade detection by the six eyes. As they tell themselves they are not “dumb enough to confront Gojo Satoru” with his extremely powerful Infinite technique.
8 games
Jogo was initially seen as the leader of sentient cursed spirits whose goal was to replace humans as “real” beings in their world before handing it over to his villain Mahito. Jujutsu Kaisen. Despite his temper and arrogance, these did not diminish his judgment or analytical skills.
Jogo isn’t weak or unintelligent, he’s just unlucky in most of his matches. His first battle was against the sorcerer “Strongest” Gojo and if it were anyone else Jogo would have won easily. His strategy makes sense against level 1 witches with his strategy of luring them into volcanic traps but most of the time guarantees victory.
7 Hajime Kashimo
One of the more prominent extermination game players, Hajime is the epitome of a witch from the past who lived only to fight. In his pursuit of finding the strongest, he developed a knack for critical thinking while in intense battle. From the battles that readers have witnessed so far, Hajime seems to be an outspoken brawler with no regard for his own safety.
But upon closer inspection, all of his moves are coordinated and direct with deadly intent. During his battle with Hakari, he was able to quickly and accurately determine the cursed technique of the third year and its rules of probability. With Hakari’s technique being the most complex Jujutsu Kaisen, this is impressive. Even so, his pride as a warrior stands in the way and his refusal to think “like a loser” in the face of unpredictable difficulties has given way to accepting behavior. take risks.
6 stars Reggie
Reggie Star is another reincarnated witch who easily has one of Jujutsu Kaisen’s more exotic curse techniques. With the ability to make anything appear from collected receipts, Reggie can summon anything at will as long as it’s written in a contract. With this ability, Reggie must think quickly and keep his opponent on the defensive. Aside from combat tactics, Reggie herself rightly questions the true purpose of selective play. He believes that Kenjaku is using elimination games as a precursor to a “bomb” that he will inevitably drop once the game has reached its end goal. Given how close this prediction is to Kenjaku’s actual final plan in Jujutsu Kaisen, this makes Reggie one of Jujutsu Kaisen’s smartest villains.
5 Suguru Geto
The hero archetype has fallen, the character Lucifer is independent and you become the enemy, Suguru Geto is a rather complicated character. Try to create a world where curses no longer exist by destroying the source of the curses, humanity itself. His use of cursed soul manipulation is quite remarkable as he can summon countless cursed souls to use at will.
No wonder he is one of Jujutsu Kaisen’s particularly terrifying level threats, second only to Gojo in terms of strength. His strategy is to execute divide and conquer tactics along with decoys and switches to accomplish his real goal of killing Rika. Although it sounded logical, the plan itself had folly as Kenjaku would later point out.
4 Can be done
The embodiment of humanity’s hatred for one another, Mahito easily becomes one of the most despicable villains ever. He’s the iconic Mahito that has even inspired Shonen Jump’s other unsettling villains. The cheerful attitude he displays when mutilating his victims makes him one of the more unlikable anime characters, but fans can still find entertainment in the brutal curse. Mahito’s keen intellect makes him a tough opponent. He can manipulate humans into realizing their darkest desires with relative ease, and he can mentally prepare for tougher opponents like Todo after exchanging a few blows with him. Surname.
3 Toji Fushiguro
Toji Fushiguro is easily the standout character from Gojo’s past, the second part of Jujutsu Kaisen will soon be adapted. He is hired by the religious group, the Time Train Organization to assassinate the newest Star Plasma Ship, Riko Amanai. The only obstacle to this quest is a young Gojo and his six-eyed technique.
Being from the Zenin family, Toji knew well what he was facing and how to be patient. Throughout most of the season, Toji tire of Gojo by sending countless bounty hunters their way. Once Gojo is not fully aware of his surroundings, that’s when the “witch killer” attacks and proceeds to immobilize Gojo and carry out his assassination.
his 2 feet
The King of Curses, Sukuna is the most powerful vengeful spirit, as his recent battle with Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen’s manga demonstrated. After waking up from his thousand-year slumber, he wasted no time trying to get things back on track and start killing people again. Though arrogant and rude, Sukuna should not be confused with a heartless killing machine with one of the greatest territorial expansions in the world of jujutsu magic.
As one of the most powerful cursed spirits to ever exist, Sukuna is quite knowledgeable about all things magic related. This is most evident in his battle with Megumi’s shikigami, Mahoraga. During their fight, Sukuna was able to quickly identify the cursed technique of the uncontrollable dark beast with a single glance and was able to devise a strategy to defeat it on the spot.
1 Kenjaku
There is no question who has the bigger brain when it comes to Kenjaku as he is a literal brain that has lived for thousands of years to gather all the information he can. He is the main architect for all the events that have occurred in the series so far with the main goal of optimizing cursed energy to help humanity evolve. Some even call Kenjaku Jujutsu Kaisen the most dangerous witch.
In their own words, Kenjaku is a creature that can’t be “neglected”. The millennial plan goes into his grand scheme, and audiences are still unsure of what remains of his intrigue, or what else the ancient brain has in store for the series’ protagonists. movie. Everything went according to plan and the heroes hadn’t even tried to throw a wrench at them. Even if Jujutsu KaisenWhile the protagonist can find a way to defeat him with the newly unsealed Gojo, Kenjaku has proven that they are worthy of being considered the most intelligent villain of the series.
