Hiromi Higuruma

Character from Jujutsu Kaisen by Gege Akutami

A disillusioned defense lawyer who awakened a Domain Expansion overnight after the Culling Game began, wielding Judgeman — a courtroom Domain that strips cursed techniques from those found guilty.

Also known as: Higuruma, Hiromi Higuruma

What They Know

• Deadly Sentencing is Higuruma's Domain Expansion — a courtroom where Judgeman, an impartial shikigami, adjudicates a trial. The 'defendant' (Higuruma's opponent) is charged with a crime, and evidence is presented. If found guilty, the punishment scales: minor charges strip the defendant's cursed technique temporarily; the most severe charge — death penalty — transforms Higuruma's gavel into the Executioner's Sword, which delivers an unavoidable lethal strike.
• Higuruma awakened his Domain Expansion in a single night with zero prior jujutsu training, a feat so extraordinary that Gojo's allies identified him as a potential game-changer for the war against Sukuna.
• His Executioner's Sword can deliver a confiscation of cursed technique as a 'guilty' verdict — the target physically cannot use their innate technique until the sentence expires. This was used against Sukuna to strip his Shrine (Cleave/Dismantle) temporarily.
• Higuruma's legal expertise translates directly into his Domain's effectiveness — his ability to construct arguments, identify logical inconsistencies, and read opponents gives him an advantage in the Domain's trial format.
• He allied with Yuji during the Culling Game and later participated in the battle against Sukuna, using Deadly Sentencing to temporarily strip Sukuna of his cursed technique at a critical moment.
• Higuruma was killed by Sukuna during their confrontation, but his Domain's verdict persisted after his death, maintaining the technique confiscation long enough for the other sorcerers to exploit the opening.
