Summary
Jujutsu Kaisen’sCulling Game arc dialed up the action and tension of the series. The Game was the ancient sorcerer Kenjaku’s ultimate plan tomerge the entirety of Japan’s population with Tengento optimize Cursed Energy to its maximum potential. He did this by making 1000 sorcerers take part in this contest, of whom there were modern sorcerers with awoken techniques as well as reincarnated ancient sorcerers.
The reincarnated sorcerers were especially formidable, as they were generally shown to have far more experience and overall strength than those who had just unlocked their powers. These reawakened sorcerers were powerful enough to perform some of the most incredible feats shown in the entire series, so let’s break down 5 of the strongest ancient sorcerers inJujutsu Kaisen.
Reggie Star’s Cursed Technique Is Silly But Effective
Reggie Star was the main protagonist of the Tokyo No. 1 Colony sub-arc within the Culling Game, and he was quite a memorable antagonist. He was a reincarnated sorcerer who owed a lot of hissuccess in the Culling Gameto his intelligence and ruthless attitude, as he quickly adapted to his surroundings and formed his own group of sorcerers to survive in the Game. Partnering up with formidable allies consisting of modern-day sorcerers as well as reincarnated ones, Reggie put up quite a fight against Megumi and almost beat him.
Reggie Star’s Cursed Technique and Strength:
At first glance, Reggie Star’s Cursed Technique seems to be quite silly, but his experience and mastery over it make it very dangerous. It’s called ‘Contractual Re-creation’ and the way it works is by burning something Reggie calls a contact. These contacts take the shape of many receipts that make up Reggie’s clothes, and when he burns whatever is written on the receipts, those things appear for him to control and use against his enemies. These can be physical objects such as entire houses to the rejuvenating effects of a spa treatment.
Takako Uro Was An Ancient Sorcerer From The Heian Era
Since the Heian Era is defined as a time with powerful Cursed Spirits and generally harsh times for humans, sorcerers of this period were exceptionally powerful because they had to be in order to survive. Takako Uro was one such sorcerer and, back in the day, she was the captain of the legendary Sun, Moon, and Stars squad, a group of assassins associated with the Fujiwara clan. She was one of the 3 sorcerers involved in the Sendai Colony deadlock and even gave Yuta a considerable amount of trouble in their fight.
Takako Uro’s Cursed Technique and Strength:
Uro had an extremelypowerful technique called ‘Sky Manipulation’, where she could control the surface of the sky like a tangible thing, using it to float and cover her body. This allowed her to move effortlessly through the air, closing or creating distance in an instant. Since she was effectively manipulating space itself, she could concentrate this attack into her offensive ‘Thin Ice-Breaker’, which treats the air as a piece of glass, shattering it and launching powerful attacks at her opponents by targeting the sky around them.
Ryu Ishigori Has The Greatest Cursed Energy Output
Yet another of the 3 deadlocked Sendai sorcerers, Ryu is the character that has thegreatest Cursed Energy output in history, capable of leveling city blocks with his power. In his fight against Yuta, Ryu was shown to be strong enough to take on Yuta, Rika, and Uro, owing to his incredible experience and strength as a sorcerer from 400 years ago in the Edo Period. Though he ended up losing, Ryu proved his strength and gave Yuta and Rika a true run for their money.
Ryu Ishigori’s Cursed Technique and Strength:
Ryu has one of the most straightforward techniques in all ofJujutsu Kaisen. However, it doesn’t take away from his overwhelming strength, as he discharges incredible amounts of Cursed Energy that can decimate anything caught in his path. This is only possible by Ryu having some of the highest Cursed Energy reserves in history, something that is shown in his Granite Blast, which remained the main offensive tool in his fight against Yuta and Uro.
Hajime Kashimo Was The Strongest Sorcerer Of His Time
Hajime Kashimo is a sorcerer who needs very little introduction, as he was the sorcerer with the highest points in the entire Culling Game and was instrumental inJujutsu High’s plan to defeat Sukuna. Though the King of Curses made little work of him, Kashimo easily cements his name as one of the most formidable sorcerers of all time, owing to his martial prowess, skills, Cursed Energy, and deadly Cursed Technique. He was alive at the same time as Ryu in the Edo Period and he is confirmed to be one of the strongest characters in the entire series.
Hajime Kashimo’s Cursed Technique and Strength:
Kashimo’s Cursed Technique is known as ‘Mythical Beast Amber’ and, despite being incredibly overpowered, he can only use it once. This technique completely covers his entire body with Cursed Energy, letting him surpass the human realm as he can create energy-based attacks and his physical prowess becomes greater than everyone else’s. However, his true strength is in his martial prowess, as he is someone who just loves to fight, using his electrified Cursed Energy to make attacks that are impossible for his opponents to dodge.
Angel Has The Strongest Technique Of Them All
Angel was an ancient sorcerer who was also from the Heian Era and was part of the Desshi Pacification Squad, whose entire goal was to eradicate Sukuna. Due to this,she agreed to reincarnate in the Culling Game, but she instead decided to co-inhabit her vessel instead of completely taking it over as she planned to work against Kenjaku and Sukuna, as well as all other reincarnated sorcerers. Aside from Gojo, Angel was the only other person to come very close to killing Sukuna, only failing the job due to Hana’s emotions.
Angel’s Cursed Technique and Strength:
Angel’s Cursed Technique is called ‘Technique Extinguishment’ and is arguably the strongest technique in all ofJujutsu Kaisen. This is because whenever it is used against any other sorcerer, this technique will completely eradicate their Cursed Technique, regardless of the level of the sorcerer it is used on. This means that even if it were used on Gojo’s Limitless, it would still be extinguished. The strongest form of this technique is ‘Maximum Output: Jacob’s Ladder’, which creates a massive area of effect and anything that is under its pillars will have its Cursed Technique extinguished.
