Panda, a sentient cursed corpse crafted by Tokyo Jujutsu High’s principal Masamichi Yaga, defies conventional categorization through his triple-core construction. Yaga’s experimental fusion of three compatible souls into a single vessel grants Panda self-awareness, emotional nuance, and autonomous cursed energy regeneration—traits that distinguish him as an "abrupt-mutated" anomaly. Each core governs a distinct form: his standard panda physique, a battle-ready Gorilla Mode amplifying physical prowess, and a dormant third entity linked to a reticent, spiritually attuned "sister" personality. These cores synergize dynamically, enabling fluid shifts between forms and combat approaches.
Yaga’s breakthrough in puppeteering—imbuing a corpse with interdependent souls—sparked fear among Jujutsu authorities, who debated awarding him Special Grade status while wary of replicating Panda’s autonomy. Despite artificial origins, Panda displays human-like humor, loyalty, and vulnerability, nurtured through a father-son bond with Yaga that led to his enrollment as a Jujutsu High student. His base form combines tactical agility with analytical precision, while Gorilla Mode unleashes devastating force via the *Unblockable Drumming Beat* technique, bypassing defenses to strike opponents. Though classified as Grade 2, his multi-form adaptability challenges traditional ranking systems.
Aligned with allies like Yuta Okkotsu and Maki Zen’in during missions, Panda balances sarcastic levity with unflinching resolve, his camaraderie masking deeper struggles with identity amid societal skepticism toward his constructed nature. Trauma, such as Yaga’s death, exposes raw emotional depths beneath his cheerful facade. Post-graduation activities see him infiltrating Kinji Hakari’s fight club, confronting Yuji Itadori, and withholding his third core’s combat potential—a mystery fueling speculation about ties to ethereal folklore beings. Through humor and resilience, Panda navigates existential questions of belonging, embodying both lighthearted charm and ethical steadfastness within Jujutsu society’s shadows.
