Personality

Megumi is guarded, serious, and protective. Long Xi initially describes him as having a cold exterior and a warm heart, a contrast demonstrated when Megumi risks himself to rescue students and pushes Yuji out of a cursed spirit’s attack 1 3 5. Even while suspicious of Long Xi, he objects to sending the newcomer against a Grade 2 curse alone 9 13.

He usually acts as the group’s cautious planner, emphasizing civilian safety, concealed threats, and collateral damage. His classmates’ casual attitude frustrates him, and he openly corrects Gojo’s misleading campus stories 14 47. His judgment is not infallible: growing trust in Long Xi leads him to mistake a cursed civilian for their target and join the attack 48.

Yuji and Long Xi’s exceptional abilities put pressure on Megumi to improve. After watching Yuji’s admission test, he recognizes new possibilities for his own development and resolves to work harder 12 13. In combat, he remains analytical despite injury, abandoning close-range exchanges once he realizes they favor his opponent 50.

Abilities & Skills

Shikigami Summoning

• Divine Dogs: Summons two wolf-shaped shikigami, one black and one white. Their coordinated attacks rapidly tear apart weaker cursed spirits 3.
• Tracking: Uses the dogs to detect cursed-energy scents and follow a target through crowded streets 47 49.
• Protection: The dogs shield Yuji and the rescued students from an initial attack at Sugisawa High 5.
• Nue: Attempts to summon this flying shikigami to create distance from an attacker, but is interrupted before completing the summon 5.
• Limits: Poison disrupts his cursed-energy control and causes the Divine Dogs to dissolve. A later Grade 2 spirit physically overpowers both dogs 5 50.

Shadow-Based Weapon Retrieval

• Retrieves his usual blade directly from his shadow during the factory battle 50.

Close-Quarters Combat

• Combines blade strikes, knee attacks, evasive footwork, and shikigami assaults 50.
• Targets joints, wrists, and shoulder seams to disable an opponent’s movement 50.
• Recognizes when an enemy controls the fight’s tempo and retreats to prepare a different summon 50.
• Struggles against a regenerating spirit whose limbs can retract and emerge from different parts of its body 50.

Tactical Assessment

• Questions Long Xi’s identity after noticing that his attack power exceeds his apparent cursed-energy reserves and that the Divine Dogs failed to detect his approach 4.
• Plans scent-based tracking and asks Long Xi to avoid using his technique in a crowded city where a curtain cannot be established quickly 47.
• Warns teammates about indirect attacks, including poisoned food 47.
• Recognizes that a spirit is deliberately luring him toward a secluded battlefield, but pursues it to prevent further civilian casualties 49.

Dangerous Summoning Option

• Considers an unnamed summon when overwhelmed in the factory 50.
• Hesitates because, without Gojo present, there would be no way to stop it if summoned 50.
• Its identity and successful activation are not established in the provided encounter 50.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Blade: An ordinary cursed tool stored in his shadow. It inflicts only superficial wounds on the regenerating factory spirit 50.

Relationships

• Yuji Itadori — Classmate and combat ally. Megumi protects him during the school attack, while Yuji prepares to pursue the curse carrying Megumi away. Yuji’s extraordinary strength later motivates Megumi to train harder 5 12 13.
• Long Xi — Classmate whose unexplained abilities initially provoke suspicion. Their relationship develops into teasing, mutual concern, and mission cooperation, though trusting Long Xi’s judgment contributes to the attack on a misidentified civilian 4 9 13 14 48.
• Satoru Gojo — Teacher. Megumi warns him about Long Xi, corrects his jokes, and recognizes that arguing against his recruitment decisions would be futile 9 10 14.
• Masamichi Yaga — Principal who assigns Megumi and Yuji to support Long Xi’s Grade 2 exorcism assessment 14.
• Ryomen Sukuna — Hostile threat. Sukuna prepares to target Megumi after incarnating in Yuji; much later, Long Xi identifies Megumi as his best guess for Sukuna’s potential replacement vessel, not a confirmed outcome 6 45.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Sugisawa High Incident

Megumi enters Sugisawa High to recover Sukuna’s finger and rescue the Occult Research Club members. When he cannot reach both endangered students in time, Yuji and Long Xi intervene simultaneously; his returning Divine Dogs finish the curse attacking Long Xi 3.

After securing the finger, Megumi is wounded and poisoned by a Grade 2 spirit. His summoning fails, and the monster carries him through the school wall. Yuji subsequently consumes the finger, allowing Sukuna to incarnate and destroy the attacker 4 5 6. Injured but alive, Megumi continues warning Gojo about Long Xi’s uncertain identity 9.

New Classmates at Jujutsu High

Megumi witnesses Yuji’s admission test and becomes increasingly unsettled by both newcomers’ talent. Despite exchanging elbows with Long Xi, he speaks up against making him face a Grade 2 curse alone. Yaga assigns all three students to the assessment, with Long Xi leading and Megumi and Yuji providing support 12 13 14.

Human-Disguising Curse Mission

Megumi briefs his classmates on a spirit capable of disguising itself as human and spreading curses through touch. The team mistakenly attacks a cursed biker; Long Xi and Yuji subsequently take the injured man to a hospital while Megumi keeps watch 47 48 49.

The actual spirit tries to exploit Megumi’s isolation by drawing him into an abandoned factory and taking him hostage. Megumi follows knowingly, but its shifting limbs and regeneration defeat his initial coordinated assault. Bloodied, he creates distance and forms a fuller summoning sign; the encounter remains unresolved as the spirit charges again 49 50.
