Background

Megumi arrives at Sugisawa High after sensing the unsealed Sukuna's Finger. Though he initially treats Yuji Itadori as an ordinary civilian who must be kept out of danger, he summons the Divine Dogs to protect Lin Mu and enters the school to rescue the trapped upperclassmen. 3

Yuji's survival after swallowing Sukuna's Finger places Megumi between his duty as a sorcerer and his concern for a classmate. He initially declares that Yuji must be exorcised under jujutsu law, but later supports Yuji's decision to attend Tokyo Jujutsu High and remains concerned for Lin Mu after his Sharingan overuse. 6 7

Megumi, Yuji, and Lin Mu are assigned to the same dormitory floor at Jujutsu High. Though outwardly resistant to Yuji becoming his roommate, he continues operating alongside him as a teammate. 9

Personality

Megumi is serious, responsible, and protective of civilians. During the Sugisawa High incident, he takes on the larger share of the cursed spirits because he considers exorcism his responsibility as the trained sorcerer. 4

His sense of justice is pragmatic rather than indiscriminate. At the juvenile detention center, he argues that the dead driver—who had repeatedly driven without a license and harmed a child—was not worth jeopardizing the remaining survivors for. Yuji challenges him over this view, forcing Megumi to confront the contradiction between that judgment and his decision to save Yuji. 13

Despite frequent self-doubt, Megumi does not retreat when faced with overwhelmingly stronger opponents. He confronts Sukuna to protect Yuji, develops tactics during the exchange event, and awakens Chimera Shadow Garden when cornered by special grades. 16 45 81

Tsumiki is central to Megumi's will to live. His fear for her safety drives his efforts after Shibuya, while Sukuna's apparent killing of Tsumiki ultimately breaks his resistance and leaves him in profound despair. 132 173

Abilities & Skills

Ten Shadows Technique

Megumi uses hand signs and shadows to summon shikigami. His technique grants him scouting, mobility, ranged pressure, and close-combat support through different summons. 2 3 16

• Divine Dogs — Twin canine shikigami used for scouting, protection, and attacking cursed spirits. They are instantly destroyed by the juvenile detention center's special-grade cursed spirit. 3 13
• Divine Dogs: Totality — A fused, werewolf-like shikigami created from the Divine Dogs. Its attack power can threaten special-grade cursed spirits, though its speed is insufficient against faster opponents. 81
• Nue — A winged shikigami capable of flight and lightning attacks; Megumi uses it for rapid movement and aerial rescue. 14 16 45
• Great Serpent — A massive snake shikigami used to restrain Sukuna. Sukuna cuts it apart with invisible slashes. 16
• Max Elephant — A large elephant shikigami that fires high-pressure water from its trunk. 46

Domain Expansion: *Chimera Shadow Garden*

Megumi's incomplete domain floods the battlefield with liquid-like shadows. It has unclear boundaries and limited range, but grants him enough control to overwhelm opponents who cannot answer with their own domain. 81

• Creates shadow constructs and repeated shikigami phantoms to harass targets. 81
• Lets Megumi merge into shadows and reappear elsewhere, functioning as shadow-based teleportation. 81
• Can interfere with another domain's sure-hit effect; against Dagon, it opens a temporary path for his allies to escape. 112
• Rapidly drains Megumi's stamina, leaving him unable to maintain the domain for long. 81 113

Combat and Tactical Leadership

Megumi combines shikigami coordination with quick battlefield decisions rather than relying on direct force alone.

• Uses the Divine Dogs' howl to recall Tokyo Jujutsu High's scattered team during the exchange event. 45
• Exploits Kamo Noritoshi's kill-stealing tactic by planning a regroup around a rare Grade 3 cursed spirit. 45
• Coordinates with Naobito Zenin, Maki Zenin, and Nanami Kento during Dagon's domain battle. 112
• Forces Aoi Todo to reveal his cursed technique during their earlier exchange-event encounter, demonstrating growth beyond his previous level. 40

Relationships

• Yuji Itadori — Teammate and close friend. Megumi initially moves to exorcise Yuji after Sukuna manifests, but repeatedly risks himself to protect him and later insists that Yuji return to Jujutsu High. 6 16 130
• Lin Mu — Teammate whose abnormal power initially confuses Megumi. Megumi protects him during the first curse outbreak, treats his injuries after the battle with Sukuna, and comes to rely on his strength in desperate situations. 3 7 18
• Kugisaki Nobara — Fellow first-year teammate. They bicker casually, cooperate in missions, and join Lin Mu in helping Ozawa Yuko approach Yuji. 12 14 85
• Satoru Gojo — Teacher and mentor at Tokyo Jujutsu High. Gojo recruits Megumi's group into the school and later entrusts him with missions against dangerous curses. 6 7 75
• Tsumiki Fushiguro — Megumi's sister and the person he is most determined to protect. Yorozu's possession of Tsumiki and Sukuna's apparent killing of her leave Megumi without the will to resist. 132 165 173
• Ryomen Sukuna — Enemy who recognizes Megumi as a viable vessel and covets the Ten Shadows Technique. Sukuna later takes Megumi's body through Yuji's Enchain vow. 18 165 166
• Toji Fushiguro — Megumi's father. Megumi unknowingly encounters Toji's summoned body during the Shibuya Incident and is left with an unexplained feeling of loss after Toji's death. 2 115 116
• Zenin Family — Megumi is named as the family’s intended next head under an agreement, creating internal conflict within the clan. 132

Story Role / Major Arcs

Sukuna's Finger Incident

Megumi investigates the unsealing of Sukuna's Finger at Sugisawa High, attempts to rescue Sasaki and Iguchi, and witnesses Yuji become Sukuna's vessel. He fights alongside Lin Mu and Yuji against the Grade 2 cursed spirit drawn to the Finger. 3 5 6

Juvenile Detention Center

Megumi leads the first-years through the detention center's innate domain, where the group is separated by a special-grade cursed spirit. He helps coordinate the decision to release Sukuna, waits outside for Yuji's return, and is subsequently overwhelmed by Sukuna until Lin Mu intervenes. 12 14 16 17

Goodwill Exchange Event

During the exchange event, Megumi organizes Tokyo's regrouping effort when Kamo begins stealing his cursed-spirit kills. He also demonstrates enough improvement to force Todo to reveal his technique during their encounter. 40 45

Special-Grade Mission and Domain Awakening

After being separated from Yuji and Kugisaki, Megumi faces two special-grade cursed spirits alone. He summons Divine Dogs: Totality and awakens Chimera Shadow Garden, but Lin Mu's Nine-Tails ultimately kills the curses before Megumi can finish them himself. 81

Shibuya Incident

Megumi enters Dagon's domain to negate its sure-hit effect and create an escape route for Naobito, Nanami, and Maki. His stamina is exhausted by maintaining the domain, after which Toji Zenin enters the battle. 112 113

Post-Shibuya and the Culling Game

Megumi reunites with Yuji and Yuta Okkotsu, remains committed to unsealing Gojo, and seeks a way to protect Tsumiki. He learns that Tsumiki is possessed by Yorozu before Sukuna uses Enchain to force a finger into Megumi and seize his body. 130 131 165 166

Sukuna's Vessel

Sukuna exploits Megumi's Ten Shadows Technique after taking control of his body. Megumi struggles against the possession until Sukuna's apparent killing of Tsumiki destroys his remaining resolve, allowing Sukuna to claim complete control. 167 173 175
