Yuji Itadori, the central figure in Jujutsu Kaisen, has undergone significant growth, emerging as one of the most formidable characters in the series. Initially faced with challenges, Yuji's journey as a sorcerer has been marked by remarkable progress, positioning him as a contender for the title of one of the greatest sorcerers.

Yuji's remarkable development is attributed to the various power-ups he has acquired over time.

Mastery of Cursed Energy

  • Arc: Fearsome Womb Arc
  • Mentor: Gojo Satoru

Yuji's first significant power-up in Jujutsu Kaisen was gaining control over cursed energy. Through rigorous training under Gojo, he honed his ability to manipulate cursed energy, significantly boosting his sorcery skills. This newfound control allowed him to infuse cursed energy not only into his strikes but also into various tools.

One of the potent techniques Yuji developed was the Divergent Fist, leveraging a delayed cursed energy release to deliver a devastating secondary blow to his adversaries. This ability proved pivotal in his early exploits within JJK.

Acquisition of Black Flash

  • Arc: Kyoto Goodwill Event
  • Instructor: Aoi Todo

During the Kyoto Goodwill Event arc, Yuji significantly advanced his sorcery skills, notably through mastering the impactful Black Flash. Aoi Todo, a distinguished Grade One sorcerer, imparted this technique to Yuji, enabling him to consistently unleash potent black flashes. While hitting black flashes requires precision, Yuji's proficiency led him to equal a record of four consecutive strikes against Hanami, a formidable special grade curse.

Attainment of Healing Ability

  • Arc: Shinjuku Showdown Arc
  • Instructor: Choso

While offensive prowess is crucial for a sorcerer, the ability to recuperate from injuries is equally vital. Yuji unveiled this skill during the Shinjuku Showdown arc, manifesting exceptional control over reverse cursed technique when facing Sukuna's assaults. Despite not yet mastering this healing art, Yuji showcased remarkable aptitude, swiftly recovering from Sukuna's devastating blows. His proficiency in this domain places him among the elite practitioners in the series.
