He was once one of the main characters but barely did anything in the end.
- First appearance: Chapter 0-1 (manga) Chapter 5 (anime)
Toge Inumaki It is one of Yuta's classmates and is supposed to be one of the main characters of the series. Although this changes later when the manga shifts its focus to Itadori and his friends, Inumaki remains an important figure in the story. Mostly thanks to his unique curse technique, Cursed Speech.
But as the manga went on, Inumaki became less and less relevant. To the point where he almost disappears from the story. After he lost an arm during Sukuna's rampage in Shibuya. He did nothing more than record himself saying “Don't move” into the recorder so that Yuta could use it against the Cursed King in the final battle. After Sukuna's defeat. Inumaki returned to his normal life again.
9 panda
He lost his father and brothers. Now what?
- First appearance: Chapter 0-1 (manga) Chapter 5 (anime)
There is no denying that panda is one of the most fascinating characters in Jujutsu Kaisen– He is a cursed mutant corpse created by Headmaster Yaga, which has three different cores in his body. Each core has its own abilities. Coupled with his cute design and charming personality, It's clear why he was one of the series' original main characters.
Unlike Inumaki, Panda continued to play an active role after the events of Shibuya, but of course he still had a lot to want. First, his father was executed by the Jujutsu elite, but aside from a brief period of mourning, Even after his death, Panda never did anything about his loss. Moreover, Both of his cores were also destroyed by Kashimo, and he never even showed the strength of his sister's Triceratops mode. This makes it disappointing for readers who have waited a long time to see this change. After this crushing defeat Panda has been seen hanging around other characters in smaller form.

Thanks to his pachinko-themed domain extension.
Hakari also plays an important role during the final battle. As he separated Sukuna from his subordinate Uraume. This invisible encounter was extremely disappointing. This is because most readers expect to see him show off his special powers again. He couldn't defeat them at all. Since Uraume committed suicide after Sukuna's death, in the final chapter it was suddenly revealed that Hakari and Kirara would be returning to study at Jujutsu Tech, which felt like a rushed development.
6 Hajime Kashimo
From major threat to fodder for pigs

Names of legendary animals in Amber But all this was not enough to defeat the Curse King who quickly eliminated him without any problems. Even though they had their last exchange about strength.

- First appearance: Chapter 0-3 (manga) Jujutsu Kaisen 0 (anime)
the existence of Miguel Oduol It presented a very interesting idea.

Meanwhile, Miguel gets the chance to show off his impressive abilities in his final fight with Sukuna. He was also sent away when things got too difficult. Only to be seen returning to Kenya as normal later, that's all? Miguel is a very strong wizard. So it was amazing to see what kind of curses and wizards he had to deal with in his country. And how did his experiences in Japan affect him?

She has the potential to become one of the most popular characters in the series.
Sadly, however, Yuki is unable to survive an encounter with one of her arch foes, and is suddenly killed when Kenjaku accidentally uses an anti-gravity technique.

2 Kenjaku
One of the main enemies isn't even properly dispatched.
- First appearance: Chapter 10 (Manga) Chapter 5 (Anime)

Despite their intense personal arguments, neither Gojo nor Itadori had a chance to fight or interact with Kenjaku before he was suddenly killed by Yuta. There's no denying that his final battle with Fumihiko Takaba is one of the most wonderful moments in the entire manga. But it's rather unfortunate that not much is shown about Kenjaku after his major defeat. Later, Takaba is seen preparing a new comedy act with a man who bears a striking resemblance to Geto. close up This is supposed to be a form of kenjaku, right?
1 Satoru Gojo
He was successfully unsealed. Only to die a few chapters later.
- First appearance: Chapter 0-1 (manga) Chapter 1 (anime)
Until today Satoru Gojo Death is one of the most divisive and conflicting moments. Jujutsu Kaisen– On paper, this is an interesting idea. Since he was an undeniably powerful character, his death left a huge void in Jujutsu society, and Sukuna would likely take over. If it weren't for Gojo's friends and allies.
The problem is that Gojo was sealed away in the prison kingdom by Kenjaku, and thus is missing from the story for nearly 140 chapters. Unlike Nobara, Gojo is killed only a few chapters after he returns. The battle is exciting. It's one of the best fights in the series, but Sukuna's victory feels cheap and undeserved.
Gojo had a huge impact on Itadori who would carry on his legacy. But that's not enough for such a beloved icon. Gojo is a very fun and complex character. So it's really a shame that he was cut from the manga in such an underwhelming way.
