Toji Fushigurou was someone who took the entire anime world by storm with his appearance in the Hidden Inventory arc during the early part of season 2 of Jujutsu Kaisen. His brash and arrogant attitude with his simple but incredible design made for a character who, despite having a fairly brief appearance in the show, made a lasting impact on the minds of every fan.
Even though Toji served as the major villain for a short arc of Jujutsu Kaisen, he is probably the most important character in the franchise. This is because it was his involvement in the story that changed its trajectory forever. One of the main reasons for his lasting impression is his skill with his weapons, without which he could not have done all the damage that he did. So, let's take a look at Toji's arsenal that he used to defeat Gojo and Geto.
Jujutsu Kaisen: How Mahito Could Have Rivalled Sukuna and Gojo
Mahito was the strongest of the Disaster Curses and if he was alive for the rest of the series, he could have rivaled Sukuna and Gojo.
Heavenly Restriction Gives Toji His Strength
Toji's most important attribute in his fights is his Heavenly Restriction, a sort of pact made with a sorcerer that lets them sacrifice one aspect for a great increase in another. In Toji's case, all the Cursed Energy from his body was stripped and, in its place, his senses and physical attributes were honed to the maximum degree possible, giving him superhuman strength, speed, and reflexes.
His body was so special that he could avoid all forms of detection from sorcerers due to his lack of Cursed Energy and could even negate barrier techniques such as Domain Expansions. When Granny Ogami tried to summon his body for her grandson to inhabit during the Shibuya Incident, it backfired due to the unique nature of Toji's Heavenly Restricted body, which is also what allowed him to sneak up on Gojo and eventually defeat him and Geto.
I don't know what happened, but my body is special.
The Inventory Curse
One part of Toji's repertoire that is almost as iconic as him is the Inventory Curse that he uses in his fights. This is a very weak Cursed Spirit but it's one with the unique ability to store a great amount of items and weapons for Toji to use and, despite being a lower-grade and weaker Cursed Spirit, Geto was unable to absorb it due to Toji establishing a master-servant relationship with it. It compliments Toji's skill as an assassin perfectly because of its storage ability, which also gives Toji the ability to use any weapon at any time.
Since it is a Cursed Spirit, it emits Cursed Energy, however, it remains undetectable to every other sorcerer in the world. The reason for this is that it could shrink to a very small size by ingesting its own body, after which Toji could swallow it and hide it inside himself to become undetectable due to his lack of Cursed Energy.
Conventional Weaponry
Despite being an assassin who was adept at killing powerful sorcerers, Toji had a few conventional weapons in his possession that he used. At the beginning of his fight with Gojo, Toji managed to sneak up behind the Limitless user and stab him through the back with a regular katana, as using a Cursed Tool would have emitted enough Cursed Energy to betray his surprise attack.
Other than this katana, Toji used a short, thin-bladed knife to defeat Gojo and stab him multiple times over his whole body. This was the same knife that he stabbed Gojo in the head with, believing that he had killed him. Finally, Toji used a standard handgun to shoot Riko Amanai in the head from a distance, which he also used against Geto while fighting his Rainbow Dragon.
The Split Soul Katana
The Split Soul Katana is a Special Grade Cursed Tool that is also one of the strongest weapons in the series. When a Heavenly Restriction is fully realized, the way that the user perceives the world is vastly different from even how the strongest sorcerers, including Gojo, do. This is because their senses are tuned to the maximum degree, allowing them to 'see the souls of inanimate objects' as well as noticing the flow of the air current.
The Split Soul Katana is a weapon whose full strength can only be realized by someone as physically gifted as Toji, as it can bypass the physical toughness of anything and cut through their soul directly. By seeing the souls of inanimate objects, even everyday objects can be cut with ease.
But you guys, with all your blessed talents, lost to a monkey like me who can't even use Jujutsu.
The Chain Of A Thousand Miles
This was a Cursed Tool that wasn't as powerful as the others in Toji's arsenal, but it gave him an incredible amount of range. This is a chain that can be extended infinitely as long as the back end is not visible, something which Toji used as a long-range weapon by hiding the chain inside the Inventory Curse's mouth. This Cursed Tool gave him near infinite range and he connected it with his main weapon.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Is Yuta The Next Gojo?
Yuta is one of the 4 special grade sorcerers and is thought by many to be the Gojo of the next generation. Can he take on that mantle?
The Inverted Spear Of Heaven
Toji's Inverted Spear of Heaven is not only the strongest weapon in Toji's repertoire, but it is the most powerful Cursed Tool of them all. This oddly shaped short sword has the unique ability to negate the Cursed Techniques of any sorcerer that it goes up against, which is how Toji was able to bypass Gojo's Infinity and almost kill him in their first meeting.
This tool is imbued with a unique Cursed Technique that works through some foreign Cursed Energy, giving it the ability to get through the technique of any sorcerer, no matter how strong they might be. After Toji's defeat, its current fate and location are left ambiguous, as it is implied that either Gojo locked it away or destroyed it to prevent anyone else from having a weapon of such power.
Playful Cloud
Playful Cloud is a Special Grade Cursed Tool and is unique. This is because, unlike other Tools, this weapon is not imbued with a Cursed Technique, instead being an extremely powerful tool that performs depending on the raw power of its wielder. So, the stronger the wielder, the stronger it will be, as seen with Toji destroying Dagon by sharpening Playful Cloud. Though many have used it over the years, Toji was the original owner of this Cursed Tool.
Jujutsu Kaisen can be streamed on Amazon Prime and Crunchyroll.
