Jujutsu Kaisen: Fans Criticize Overpowered Character with Worse Plot Armor Than Sukuna

Some followers of Jujutsu Kaisen believe that there is a character with even weaker plot armor than Sukuna, and they strongly dislike how this is portrayed in the series.

Despite Jujutsu Kaisen’s reputation for being merciless to its characters, there are certain individuals who receive preferential treatment. The primary antagonist, Ryomen Sukuna, has faced accusations of possessing an impenetrable plot armor, rendering him invincible against any opponent.

Despite this, it has been made apparent from the start that Sukuna is one of the most powerful characters in Jujutsu Kaisen, if not the strongest. However, Gege Akutami, the creator of Jujutsu Kaisen, has shown clear favoritism towards another character.

Kenjaku, another key antagonist, possesses even weaker plot armor compared to Sukuna. Through his cursed technique, Kenjaku has managed to take control of Suguru Geto, one of the four Special Grade sorcerers, and his Curse Manipulation Technique.

During his battles against Yuki Tsukumo, Choso, and Tengen, Kenjaku reveals another CT: Anti-gravity. He gained this ability by taking over Kaori Itadori’s body. Throughout the narrative, Kenjaku primarily uses this CT as a gravity technique, but he ultimately unveils its true power when it becomes crucial. This revelation sparked widespread anger among fans of Jujutsu Kaisen.

Despite being a formidable character, Yuki Tsukumo is no match for Kenjaku, who is even stronger. As one of the four Special Grade sorcerers, she is among the most powerful. Even though she proved to be stronger than Geto in their fight, she ultimately met her demise against Kenjaku.

The fandom’s biggest frustration stems from the convenient timing of Kenjaku’s sudden reveal of his anti-gravity technique. It was the perfect tool for him to defeat Yuki’s CT, but this victory holds no weight in the future. Despite defeating a formidable opponent like Yuki, Kenjaku’s power remains unchanged.

Despite facing Takaba in a battle after Yuki, Kenjaku did not display any impressive skills. However, he was quickly defeated by Yuta Okkotsu, a Special Grade sorcerer. Therefore, it is illogical for Kenjaku to defeat someone as powerful as Yuki and he would surely lose without plot armor protecting him.

Despite all that has transpired, this battle remains the only aspect of the manga that has truly angered me,”a fan expresses in a comment voicing their dissatisfaction with the fight on Reddit.

Another fan agrees, stating, “I would have accepted Yuki’s death if it had resulted in Kenjaku being portrayed as an absolute monster. However, instead, Kenjaku’s only action was to be defeated by a living embodiment of a terrible post and Yuta.”

Despite the frequent criticisms targeted towards popular series like Jujutsu Kaisen, the overwhelming plot armor of Kenjaku is impossible for fans to overlook. For those interested in learning more about the franchise’s most formidable ancient sorcerers, we have compiled a list for your perusal.
