Nobara Kugisaki

Character from Jujutsu Kaisen by Gege Akutami

A fierce and unapologetically confident young sorcerer from the countryside who wields the Straw Doll Technique, driving nails through effigies to destroy her enemies at range.

Also known as: Nobara, Kugisaki

What They Know

• Nobara's Straw Doll Technique uses resonance — by driving nails into a straw doll while possessing a piece of her target (blood, flesh, cursed energy residue), she inflicts damage directly on the target's body regardless of distance or physical defenses.
• Her Hairpin technique launches nails imbued with cursed energy as projectiles, which she can then detonate in a burst of CE. Combined with her hammer for direct strikes, she fights at both range and close quarters.
• Black Flash: Nobara achieved Black Flash during the Goodwill Event, amplifying her Resonance technique to devastating effect against Mahito's transfigured humans.
• Her Resonance was uniquely effective against Mahito because it attacked his soul directly — the same domain where his Idle Transfiguration operates — making her one of the few sorcerers who could genuinely damage him.
• Nobara sustained catastrophic injuries to the left side of her face during the Shibuya Incident from Mahito's touch. Her current status following emergency treatment by Shoko remains uncertain.
• She grew up in a rural village and carries deep resentment toward the social pressure of small-town life. Her best childhood friend Saori was driven out of their village, which shaped Nobara's fierce independence.
