Yuji Itadori staring out the window in Jujutsu Kaisen

Summary Jujutsu Kaisen presents as a protagonist a character who does not fit the unattainably heroic standard of perfection, and instead appears more like an average person, but that's what makes Yuji Itadori stand out. Among unbelievably powerful heroes in anime, it can be difficult for the average viewer to picture themselves in the shoes of the mighty individuals they see on their screen.

Akutami also highlights Yuji’s role as “a universal protagonist” in Jujutsu Kaisen, or someone that makes it easy for every reader to picture themselves in his role. Yuji is a perfect portrayal of the “everyman” literary trope, the kind of character any reader can relate to and project themselves onto in the context of the story, because he is quite average.

Yuji Starts His Sorcerer Journey as the Least Experienced Student at Jujutsu High He Has To Work Hard To Catch up to His Comrades, Since Most of Them Have Powerful Advantages Unlike many other heroes, though, Yuji did not instantly have clear superpowers or a high power level from birth. He unlocked these skills after consuming Sukuna's finger and, oftentimes, does not have control over how and when the King of Curses chooses to present himself to the world.
