Yuji Itadori

Yuji Itadori’s Personality and Growth

Cheerful on the surface, Yuji carries a weight most of his classmates never see. He jokes around, holds his own physically before he ever learns a cursed technique, and treats strangers with the same loyalty he shows his closest friends. The Shibuya Incident cracks that easy optimism, putting him through two breakdowns in the span of minutes as he watches people he cares about suffer and fails to stop Sukuna from taking over his body. Even in the aftermath, he refuses to let despair define him, choosing instead to keep chasing the meaning of a proper death that his grandfather taught him. His empathy, sometimes bordering on self-sacrifice, remains the throughline of his arc from a runaway in Sendai City to one of Tokyo Jujutsu High’s most formidable sorcerers.

Who Voices Yuji Itadori in Jujutsu Kaisen?

Adam McArthur brings Yuji to life in the English dub, a role that followed his breakout turn as Marco Diaz in Star vs. the Forces of Evil and his work as Chifuyu Matsuno in Tokyo Revengers. In Japanese, Junya Enoki voices the character, building on a résumé that includes Pannacotta Fugo in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind and his ongoing role as the Japanese dub voice of Tom Holland.
