Who is Inumaki in Jujutsu Kaisen?

Character Overview

Inumaki Toge is a supporting character in the anime and manga series "Jujutsu Kaisen." He is known for his unique ability called "Cursed Speech," which allows him to infuse his words with cursed energy, compelling those who hear them to obey. This makes him a formidable opponent against lower-grade curses but less effective against high-grade ones like Sukuna [1:4]. Despite his powerful technique, Inumaki has not been heavily featured in the series, leading some fans to consider him as having wasted potential [3:6].

Role in the Series

Inumaki's role in the series has been somewhat limited, with notable appearances during the Shibuya Incident where he lost an arm [1]. His Cursed Speech was shown to be effective against weaker opponents, but it does not contribute significantly against stronger enemies [1:4]. Some fans speculate about his potential if he had access to Reverse Cursed Technique (RCT), which could enhance his abilities [1:5].

Potential and Comparisons

Fans have expressed disappointment over Inumaki's limited role, especially when compared to characters like Yuta, who can use Cursed Speech more effectively due to his RCT [3:2]. There are discussions about how Inumaki could be more involved in battles or have a support role by taming curses [3:5]. The idea of him receiving a power-up or cursed tool to increase his relevance in the series has been suggested [5:1].

Background and Clan History

The Inumaki clan has a history of being hunted down, possibly due to their rogue sorcerer status [4:3]. The clan's Cursed Speech technique is known to exist since the Heian Era, suggesting that there may have been strong users from the clan in the past [4:6]. This historical context adds depth to Inumaki's character and the potential threat his abilities pose.

Future Speculations

While Inumaki has not been central to recent story arcs, fans continue to hope for his increased involvement in future events. There is speculation about his participation in the Culling Games and whether he might receive further development or upgrades [5:3]. However, given the current narrative focus, his chances of playing a significant role remain uncertain [1:8].

Last time we saw him his arm was missing at the shibuya incident. That was some time ago…you think what i’m thinking?

Maybe he will do what he do best: suddenly appear at the perfect moment and scream something crazy

he did appear in the unsealing of gojo.

still, his CT is really efficient at fighting low grade curses or weaker enemies, but he doesnt contribute too much against high grade curses, and he is fodder against sukuna, kenjaku or uraume.

let's be honest Yuta can do his ability better because of his RCT. So whatever inumaki could do, which is nothing on Sukuna cause it will affect only himself, yuta can do better. Inumaki had potential, especially if he had RCT but yuta with his copy technique shows us what inumaki could be with RCT and more CE

I wonder if Cursed Speech could be used to heal in general. Like, “Regrow your lost arm!” Heavy feedback obviously, but especially for someone like Yuta, I have to wonder if it’s just something they’ve never tried. I don’t see why not, considering that JJK 0 Inumaki (who is assumedly much weaker than current Inumaki who could attack a Special Grade like Hanami a few times) could create a giant crater by using “Plummet” on Geto.

Joeawiz · 1 year ago

The issue with the Uro thing is that she was completely taken by surprise by Yuta just suddenly using cursed speech and so didn’t have the chance to reinforce her ears with CE, like all members of the inumaki clan have those markings on their face and so to have someone without them use cursed speech would just never cross her mind, so yeah if you get surprise attacked it works well, however if let’s say Uro was fighting an Inumaki she’d probably not get caught lacking as she’d know to expect it and so would defend against it

90% on the cast are useless against Sukuna, stop pretending otherwise lol

Someone like Kamo understands he can’t do so much that it’s not worth it in the end to fight and die. Also what ‘Miwa potential’, this is just something the fandom gaslit themselves into believing.

It would be a bigger disservice to have them be used as meat shield to sacrifice themselves and die for an ‘opening’ which has already been done with Yuji Hakari and Higuruma without anyone tossing their life away.

The manga has shown that simple domain can be used to nullify dismantle, if Inumaki is able to use it then his injuries make sense, he would be caught off guard by the start of the attack but protect himself once he realizes he’s in danger

I mean even being in the range of Sukuna during Shibuya is pretty much death. So I'd imagine barely escaping would still mean grievous injuries, so I'd say it wouldn't be hard to believe.

Ok for one he was, in the range he was trying save people and get them to a safer location. Some people even talked about them before Sukuna vaporized them with his domains. Also Sukuna's domains biggest point is that for the amount of power it has, people have the chance to escape the domain and it is very possible that he was barely at the edge of the domain when he got hit and was able to escape.

Also it doesn't really need to be the domain he might have suffered the damage during Sukuna vs Jogo.

Also minor spoiler >!In the Manga it has been shown that he has lost his arm!<

Sukuna's domain provides an exit, thats what makes its range so large, by providing an exit it creates a binding vow which enhances its range.

If you move fast enough, you can go outside sukuna's domain without dying.

Mahoraga did not escape the domain because he was at the center of a 70 meter radius DE, and he was too overwhelmed to move out fast enough. We literally see him on the ground trying to heal from the cuts.

Remember that Sukuna has his domain set up so that people can escape which increases the range.

Everything got wiped out after Sukuna used Fuga which burned everything but there was some time between opening his domain and using Fuga that Inumaki could have barely escaped the slicing

Mahoraga wasn't trying to escape, it was trying to kill Sukuna and had already adapted to the slashes.

He isn't wasted potential when he never had potential to begin with, not every character is going to have a huge role to play. It also doesn't help that Yuta exists who can use Inumaki's CT much better than him.

I never said he was gunna have a huge role only that he had potential and I’m speaking from a writing standpoint. Inumaki is in the main cast leave the “never had any potential to begin with” to the kyoto kids and other various side characters. There is huge potential for a character with a busted CT to do stuff and to not have done almost anything at all of note is indeed an injustice Yuta using his CT doesn’t take away from the fact he can still do stuff we have more than one blood manipulation user(one who can use it much better)and they both get some shine.

Uro seems to know bout Cursed Speech -> it probably existed in the Heian Era -> there was a strong user from the Inumaki clan or their ancestors -> the Fujiwaras, who kinda ruled Japan during the Heian Era, might’ve ordered them to be hunted down -> future leading clans do the same (tradition?)

cursed speech could’ve gone higher i think it’s beautiful how much this series spoke to all of us but according to them it didn’t speak to Gege as deeply it’s unfortunate but at the same time we can kind of play w the story this way who is to say it wasn’t the original plan for inumaki but then Gege lost heart maybe they had some personal problems and the story got kind of rushed Jjk could’ve easily been close to 400 chapters if Gege was having fun

I always interpreted the “even RCT sometimes leaves scars” as a statement to RCT in general and not Shoko specifically. As in it implies that given certain circumstances RCT is imperfect which tracks with stuff like Yuji and others’ scars.

My headcanon is that it’s a time thing, if you don’t heal with RCT before your body makes scar tissue then you’ll have scars because scar tissue isn’t something that needs to be “healed” similar to how Mahito’s IDT interacts with RCT.

Gege needed a character to be there when Yuji woke up from being dead So an sorcerer doctor was created, but to be a doctor you're probably not a student therefore someone close to Gojo’s age, if she's close to his age she was probably around the geto thing. Just like that we have a character.

Are Nanami and Inumaki wasted characters?

Posted by Klimax_1 · in r/Jujutsushi · 3 years ago
post image

I feel like I may get a lot of back clash for this but Inumaki and Nanami are a bit overrated, they really aren't that strong. A lot of people probably know Inumaki isn't that powerful against grade 1 curses and above but Nanami is still considered one of the strongest sorcerers. Aside from overtime which is quite powerful he hasn't been showed to have any feats that can beat current Megumi, maybe even Yuuji.

https://preview.redd.it/8aznwlff71z71.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=c353935920aef205872e94c5ff5cd406d3292fae

I'm aware Nanami may probably be skilled enough to beat current Yuuji but the series did him dirty, they didn't portray him as strong as he should've been, with a technique like his he should've been able to do more than this to Mahito, splitting grade 2 or even grade 1 curses in half (Vertically) would be cool.

https://preview.redd.it/nkerch3i81z71.png?width=508&format=png&auto=webp&s=51a5a1acbb249f238bcd1f270ffa1cdd0b0ad7d5

Even though Mahito reinforced his arm with cursed energy in that image It was a weak attack to be honest, I also wonder why his blade was kept wrapped, I assume it was one of his binding vows but if it was then that makes him seem more weak, needing a binding vow to increase his strength and he still isn't that strong (at least how he was portrayed). I feel like so much more could be done with Nanami.

On to Inumaki it was stated he was quite fast and athletic but literally nothing was done with that skill, his technique has a lot of weaknesses so you would assume he would compensate by training his physical strength (Maybe he already did but the series isn't using his skills to full extent) which he already has in speed but no, the series used his speed on a baseball game.

https://preview.redd.it/jo8y9wgv91z71.png?width=420&format=png&auto=webp&s=ff9b0ad9192bc669bab05b8eb4d62ea5f0ccdb44

Inumaki is kinda just the guy that supports fights and ends up coughing blood at the end.

Anyways Inumaki and Nanami are one of my favorite characters no hate to them I just feel more could be done with them.

Nanami blitzed the grade 2 or semi grade 1 pony tailed curse user. Like it was embarrassing, he tried to kick Nanami and it felt like kicking a wall, slashing him with the sword barely did anything, and if not for his cursed technique he would’ve been one shot killed by Nanami. Nanami also survived 2 domain expansions, even if it was just by chance or outside help it’s nothing to be scoffed at. He also survived being burnt by Jogo’s flames, and he was considered to be the strongest of the nature spirits, then again Maki did survive as well but she has the low cursed energy heavenly restriction.

As for Inumaki, we haven’t seen his full potential nor have we seen what his power in the hands of a pro sorcerer would be like, unless you would count Yuta since he is special grade but the grades of those spirits he killed with cursed speech are unknown. I hope we possibly see an ancient sorcerer with cursed speech, who has some insanely powerful words or something. Also, Inumaki is the same grade as the dude with the auspicious beasts summoning, which is semi-grade one. Though there’s a major gap between semi-grade one sorcerers and true grade one sorcerers.

Edit: I didn’t realize I wrote this much

Yeah I feel like everyone’s thinking that inumaki is a weak character when he is a semi-grade 1. Like the only times we saw him fight was against Hanami and Geto 2 special grades. And Gojo had to exorcise Hanami because in the end even Todo and Yuuji couldn’t

On top of surviving Jogo’s attack, he managed to take down a shit ton of Mahito’s cursed humans even though half his body was a crisp.

As KamKFF said, they may be underutilized in fights, but not as characters, especially Nanami. While Nanami fans respect his abilities, they (ok, we) love him because of his presence and the security that he gives Yuuji. It's refreshing to see an adult in shonen anime actually be an adult and put the childrens' safety above their own.

Inumaki definitely needs more of a backstory. I do like his character, but I'd love to know more about him.

I feel like you're putting too much stock into power levels when judging Nanamis 'character'. Nanami was able to beat Mahito into a stalemate in his first fight and had a good showing ever since then. His presence in the story and his character arc was well enough to cement him as a great character for me, and focusing mainly on his fights seem like a big disservice to what he brought to the series overall. Maybe a renaming of the title would be needed if you're trying to ask "Are they wasted in fights" and not as characters, because a character is more than their fights. The manga isn't over and Inumaki is still alive so probably waiting until he reappears to pass judgement is better.

Even as far as his fights go, he's definitely not shown to be a slouch at any point. While Yujis protection against Mahitos technique might make him seem fairly weak, he's without doubt the most dangerous curse in the manga. The only times people have gone toe to toe with him is by ganging up with Yuji to fight him, and even then he's more than capable of keeping up with both Nanami/Yuji and Todo/Yuji in a fight, without his domain expansion. If Sukuna wasn't around to protect Yuji, he would have killed every single sorcerer in shibuya after Gojo was sealed, and for Nanami to go toe to toe with him, and even resist a technique that has instantly killed almost everyone else it's been used on, is an extremely impressive feat.

Nanami is not wasted. He has his character arc complete, badass moments and motivations, ideology, and his death is highly emotional and consequently because it develops Yuji, Gojo when he’s unsealed, and possibly the comedian if he has Nanami’s technique. Heck if Higuruma got stronger with transfiguration. I sure Nanami’s technique will be more powerful with the comedian.

As for Toge, we’ll Gege did said he has no plan with him. So maybe he will be use after the Culling Games.

I think I may have burst a tiny blood vessel at the sight of the title lol. I don't think they're wasted, they served their purposes well and inumaki isn't even out the picture yet. It's just the current arc is much smaller scale (in terms of characters involved), so our focus isn't on much of the cast

This just reminds me that we still need to get an update on Inumaki's arm and overall health.

Like is he even still fit to fight?

Not scared at all to jump above his weight class.

Fought sukuna several times.

Lowkey saved makis life.

Jumped in to let Yuji get those black flashes off.

Has one of the move creative and unique curse techniques ever.

Uses a special grade cursed tool.

Humble and the OG student of nanami

Can perform RCT (healed his hand after it got cut off)

Has simple domain too.

Got great hands

Definitely the most awesome side character ever.

Kusakabe and Ino (Ino more too) actually landing their attacks on Sukuna and doing (minimal) damage will still stick with me because I always felt it like should have been impossible.

The fact that they didn't die AND didn't sustain severe damages (kinda) is really, and I mean REALLY impressive.

Grade 1 no questions

If Nanami became a teacher instead of Gojo his students would have folded Sukuna in 5 chapters.
