Mahito

真人

Mahito is one of the primary antagonists of the Jujutsu Kaisen series. He is a Cursed Spirit allied with Suguru Geto. Their ultimate goal is the eradication of humanity and ultimately replacing the population with Cursed Spirits. As described by Jujutsu Sorcerers, Mahito is a human-looking Cursed Spirit with a patchwork face. He has light gray eyes and long gray hair that reaches past his neck and is sectioned off into three large strands with ties at the ends. Along with his face, Mahito stitches all across his body that gives him the appearance that he was sewn together. Mahito normally sports a black shawl that is separated into three pieces on the left sleeve. He also wears matching pants without shoes. Mahito is a sadistic, immature Cursed Spirit who enjoys toying with human emotions. He believes he was born from human transgressions and considers himself the very manifestation of humans' hatred of each other. As such, Mahito believes that humans should be extinguished and Cursed Spirits should rule in their place. Mahito has no sympathy for human lives and appears to place little value on even his own life. He is devoted to his cause, believing that reviving Sukuna is more important than his own well being. As long as Cursed Spirits eventually reign supreme, Mahito cares not if he's there to see it. Unlike his ally Jogo, who is very short-tempered and arrogant, Mahito can remain relatively calm and is playful in nature. Even so, they agree on the same goals when it comes to their race. Nanami describes Mahito as extremely immature and has a superficiality about him similar to Satoru Gojo. He enjoys toying with humans, even in battle when his life is on the line. Mahito befriended Junpei because he saw him as a toy that could be fun to play with. He coerced Junpei into becoming a Curse User by feeding on his hatred. When his toy ran out of use, Mahito used him as leverage against Yuji and even killed him without a second thought. Mahito is also very philosophical when it comes to the concept of souls. He believes that the human soul came before the body and is intrigued by the very nature of the soul. His Cursed Technique is derived from this obsession, and he uses it to experiment on human victims in order to gain further knowledge.
