What is Kenjaku’s Original form? How did he schemed for ages?
Kenjaku is more than a name. He’s an old, crafty force that has been guiding the Jujutsu world for ages. His true shape stays hidden, and what we know about him is frightening.
He has a unique skill: he can put his brain into another person’s body, taking control of their life. This terrifying method has let him live for ages, shaping events behind the scenes. One scary plot was to control the body of Yuji Itadori’s mom to give birth to Yuji. His motive? To turn Yuji into a host for the King of curses, Sukuna.
By organizing this, Kenjaku started a sequence of events that would rock the Jujutsu world. He’s the brains behind two devastating events: the Shibuya Incident and the Culling Game. These plans aimed to create major turmoil and move toward his ultimate plan.
It’s evident that he is not just an enemy; he’s a complex character with a big plan. But what is his final goal? Let’s look at that in the next part.
What is his ultimate plan?
Kenjaku has always been acting in unsettling ways, pointing towards a scary plan. His ultimate plan? Completely change mankind. He moves pieces around, stirs up mess, all to bring humans and cursed energy together. He imagines a new life form, where it’s hard to tell humans from a curse.
His method? He collects strong cursed spirits like Mahito, making them part of him. He also plays around with cursed energy on a big scale, seen in events like the Shibuya Incident and the Culling Game.
What Kenjaku wants is a world ruled by powerful beings, a world where he’s the boss because he started it all. It’s a scary thought. It could ruin the balance between humans and curses for good.
In the end, Kenjaku isn’t just a bad guy; he’s a spark for a big shift in mankind, maybe even a step back.
How Powerful is Kenjaku
How powerful is he?
He’s more than just sharp-minded. He has strong sorcerer skills. He’s one heck of a powerhouse, easily becoming one of the top threats in the Jujutsu world.
Kenjaku knows a thing or two about turning a sorcerer into a cursed object after they die. Even Sukuna, the Curse King, hadn’t heard of this. His control over death and curses? Is truly unmatched.
More so, he is a great barrier user. Behind Tengen, he’s number two. His talent for shaping and controlling barriers is top-notch. A real force on the battlefield.
But let’s talk about his scariest trick – hijacking other sorcerer’s bodies. It gifts him endless life, and absorbs up their tricks and wisdom. That’s what makes him a forever changing danger, always one step ahead.
Is Kenjaku dead?
Kenjaku’s fall in Jujutsu Kaisen was an unexpected plot twist. His defeat seemed too simple for a character so smart and strong.
This crafty villain, responsible for many horrors, faced his downfall from Yuta Okkotsu – a young sorcerer with a bright future. (maybe not, read about him here) Yuta, backed by Rika, bested Kenjaku in a thrilling showdown. Yet, his demise left many mysteries.
Kenjaku’s physical form was destroyed but his effect remains. His plans continue, though he’s not running the show. The Culling Game, a disastrous event set up by him, is still causing chaos.
This suggests Kenjaku, with his complicated and sly character, planned for his possible defeat and safety measures to protect his legacy. Is he really gone, or did he plan to continue his dark scheme after death? Time will reveal.
After Kenjaku’s Death
The aftermath
Yuta’s win over Kenjaku was pretty big, but it wasn’t the final problem for the Jujutsu world. Actually, it could have caused even more risks. When he died, it sped up his big plan: joining humans and cursed energy. With Kenjaku not around, Sukuna, the “Cursed King,” took charge. This suggests the world is up against an even stronger and more uncertain danger now.
