Megumi Fushiguro, a tactically astute yet introverted jujutsu sorcerer, was shaped by a turbulent upbringing. Born to Toji Fushiguro—a disgraced Zenin exile—and an unnamed mother, he faced abandonment before his step-sister Tsumiki assumed guardianship. Satoru Gojo later intervened, securing custody after defeating Toji and recognizing Megumi’s dormant sorcerer potential. His stoic exterior masks a fiercely personal moral code. From childhood, he rejected hypocrisy and undeserved pride, clashing with authority figures and bullies alike. This self-defined justice drives him to shield those he deems worthy, like Tsumiki or Yuji Itadori, even defying jujutsu protocols to rescue Yuji from execution. He frames such choices as calculated selfishness, prioritizing empathy over hollow heroism. Inheriting the Zenin clan’s Ten Shadows Technique, Megumi commands shikigami through shadow manipulation. Divine Dogs, Nue, and Mahoraga serve as key summons, their destroyed forms amplifying surviving allies. His Domain Expansion, Chimera Shadow Garden, floods battlefields with shadow terrain. Early reliance on near-suicidal tactics—like invoking uncontrollable Mahoraga—shifted after Gojo’s mentorship emphasized strategic survival over martyrdom. Critical confrontations tested his resolve. During the Shibuya Incident, he battled his resurrected father Toji and survived Mahoraga’s onslaught only through Sukuna’s intervention. These events forced him to confront his lineage’s legacy. Reluctantly inheriting leadership of the decimated Zenin clan, he reformed its structure to align with his ideals. Relationships anchor his growth. His partnership with Yuji balances impulsive optimism with analytical restraint, deepened by shared guilt over Sukuna’s atrocities. Nobara Kugisaki’s forthrightness complements his reserve, their camaraderie hardening through mutual loss. Though exasperated by Gojo’s unpredictability, he internalizes his mentor’s belief in his potential. Tsumiki’s curse and conscription into the Culling Game became his catalyst, fueling his defiance of systemic cruelty. When Sukuna hijacked his body as a vessel in the Culling Game’s chaos, Megumi retreated inward, consumed by guilt over the destruction wrought in his form. Despite allies like Yuji striving to reclaim him, he remains fractured—a reflection of his ongoing struggle to harmonize sacrificial duty with the uncompromising ethics that define him.
