Background / History

Megumi was raised by Satoru Gojo and later became one of his first-year students at Jujutsu High. He has Zenin Clan blood; during the Goodwill Event gathering, his strength is described as exceeding that of the clan’s Main House 9 46 47.

Sukuna’s Vessel Incident

Megumi first encounters Takechi when she falls from the sky onto his Divine Dog. When a cursed spirit attacks, he pushes her out of danger but is caught himself. Takechi frees him with Cursed Speech, and he continues fighting alongside Yuji Itadori despite his injuries 3.

After Yuji swallows Sukuna’s Finger, Megumi declares that he must be exorcised. Once Gojo arrives and subdues Yuji, however, Megumi admits that he personally wants Yuji to live and asks his teacher to find a way around the execution requirement. He also questions Gojo’s decision to take the unconscious Takechi with them 3 4.

Juvenile Detention Center Mission

In July 2018, Megumi joins Yuji, Nobara Kugisaki, and Takechi on a rescue mission at Eishu Juvenile Detention Center. He raises a Curtain and uses a Divine Dog to detect curses and remember the entrance’s scent when the building’s interior becomes distorted 11 12.

Finding Tadashi Okazaki’s corpse brings him into conflict with Yuji. Megumi refuses to retrieve the body, citing Tadashi’s repeated unlicensed driving and the death of a young girl. He challenges Yuji to consider whether saving someone remains right if that person later kills another 12.

When a special-grade cursed spirit appears, Takechi stays behind to fight. Megumi reluctantly follows her instructions, summoning his Divine Dogs and dragging Yuji away to find Nobara. After Takechi emerges covered in severe wounds, he immediately runs to her; later, his silent disapproval accompanies the others’ warnings against her recklessness 13 14.

Kyoto Students’ Confrontation

When Aoi Todo confronts Takechi, Megumi steps between them. Once Todo attacks and Mai Zenin restrains Nobara, Megumi uses winged frog shikigami to distract Mai and let Nobara escape. Although Nobara worries about Takechi’s fight, Megumi maintains that she is strong enough to handle Todo 19.

Yoshino Visit and Takechi’s Recovery

After completing a mission with Nobara, Megumi encounters Yuji and Takechi with Junpei and Nagi Yoshino. He accepts Nagi’s dinner invitation, checks whether the visit is connected to the movie-theater investigation, and warns his classmates to be careful. During dinner, he helps Takechi when she chokes laughing and arranges the group’s pickup with Ijichi 32 33.

Following Takechi’s uncontrolled attack after Junpei’s transformation, Megumi and Nobara watch over her in the infirmary. Megumi bluntly explains the destruction she caused and the work Gojo, Shoko, and Yaga undertook to prevent casualties. His concern remains evident when the students later confront her about risking her life 36 40.

Kyoto Sister-School Goodwill Event

Megumi helps revise the Tokyo team’s strategy before the event. During the team battle, the students plan to divide into Panda’s and Megumi’s groups because both are good at finding enemies. His Divine Dog detects Todo’s approach, allowing Megumi to warn Maki 45 49.

Takechi later sees Megumi and the other students engaged in fierce combat. Hoping to help her teammates and end the contest quickly, she unleashes a forest-wide Destroy command that devastates the battlefield 50.

Personality

Megumi is reserved, practical, and frequently exasperated by his classmates’ antics. He gives terse introductions, distrusts Gojo’s supposed sightseeing plans, and answers the group’s excesses with dry remarks rather than enthusiasm. Nevertheless, praise and affectionate attention from Takechi repeatedly make his ears turn red 8 9 12 32.

His care usually appears through actions: shielding Takechi from an attack, lending her his jacket, giving her a drink during hot pot, and helping her when she chokes. His guarded manner becomes noticeably harsher when she dismisses the danger of her injuries 3 11 21 33 40.

Megumi does not treat saving people as an unconditional duty. His objection to retrieving Tadashi’s body reflects concern about the harm a rescued person might later cause. At the same time, his plea to spare Yuji shows that he can place personal judgment above jujutsu regulations 4 12.
