* DeathOfPersonality: [[spoiler:This is what Sukuna is trying to accomplish by taking over his body. The longer Sukuna remains, the more likely Megumi's soul will be destroyed. The "bath"[[note]]A pool of curse blood made by Uraume using the grounded and minced corpses of various curses[[/note]] helps speed up the process, but Sukuna states Tsumiki Fushiguro's death will be the final nail in the coffin, which he accomplishes in his battle with Yorozu.]].

Subverted since its later shown that Megumi is still there after Sukuna kills Tsumiki, but he's so broken emotionally that he can't do anything to resist]].

* FightingFromTheInside: [[spoiler:After Sukuna takes over his body, Megumi manages to disrupt Sukuna's cursed energy output and techniques to help Yuji. However, after Sukuna takes a bath in essence of pure evil and uses Megumi's own Cursed Technique to kill his sister Tsumiki, [[DespairEventHorizon Megumi is left too broken to resist]].]]

Added DiffLines:

* {{Foreshadowing}}: During Shibuya, [[spoiler:Gojo (in a flashback) tells Megumi that in the past, a head of the Gojo family with the Six Eyes and a head of the Zen'in clan with the Ten Shadows ended up killing each other during a battle, with Gojo implying to Megumi that he could one hypothetically reach a level in which he is on par with Sukuna. In hindsight, however, this anecdote is actually foreshadowing Gojo's death at the hands of Sukuna who possessed Megumi, hijacked his Ten Shadows technique, and used it to bypass Gojo's Infinity.]]

Less an evil laugh and moreso the adrenaline going to his head IMO


* EvilLaugh: Lets out a ''very'' disturbing laugh before using Domain Expansion (albeit an incomplete version of it) for the very first time.

* DistressedDude: [[spoiler:In the climactic battle against Sukuna in Shinjuku, Megumi has been taken over by the King of Curses as a vessel. In addition to killing Sukuna, the heroes are also trying to save Megumi by expelling Sukuna's soul from his body.]]

Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalBadass: Mahoraga, while extremely strong in the manga, was taken down in less than two chapters by [[WorldsStrongestMan Sukuna]]. It lasts far longer against the King of Curses in the anime and comes across as '''far''' more capable of keeping up with him.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Irony}}: Mahoraga is the pinnacle of the Zen'in Clan's prized curse technique, being an all-powerful Shikigami with the ability to adapt to any and all phenomena, making it all the more ironic that the Zen'in Clan's destruction was caused by their inability to ''adapt'' to modern times.

* LightningBruiser: Even putting aside its AdaptiveAbility, Mahoraga's physical capabilities are absolutely monstrous, being strong enough to launch Sukuna through several buildings with one punch, earning an [[BloodKnight appreciative]] [[NotBad "not bad"]] from the sorcerer and turn ''cars and entire metro trains'' into ImprovisedWeapons, and being fast enough to keep up with both him and Gojo in a brawl.

Sources for previous edit: https://animentalism.com/jujutsu-fusiguro-miryoku Due to the above events, he cites women with "unwavering humanity"
like Tsumiki as his favorite type.

Megumi Fushiguro's preferences in women
https://twitter.com/Mutuki2018/status/1528286519072501760

By the way, it seems that the type of woman he likes is "a person who has an unwavering humanity”
https://manga-tantei.com/jujutsukaisenhushiguromegumi-693

Megumi Fushiguro's favorite type is a woman who has "the nature peculiar to human beings who do not change their minds or lose their resolve".
https://comic-info.jp/?p=17887

Fushiguro's ideal woman is a woman like Tsumiki.

Megumi Fushiguro is a man whose older sister runs through his mind when asked about his favorite woman!
https://twitter.com/pesopesojamp/status/1637648488266891269

By the way, Megumi Fushiguro's favorite type of woman is "It's good if the person has unwavering humanity."
https://www.kanbei-rekishi-kabu.com/jyujyutu-kaisen-todo-aoi/

When it comes to women he likes, he is very thorough in that he puts first and foremost that he is a good person with unwavering humanity, like Tsumiki.
https://animentalism.com/jujutsu-fusiguro-miryoku/

People interpreted his line as if he was talking about his sister. Nobody associated it with anything other than the opposite sex.

This is a translation error especially when the Japanese native media only perceives his statement as exclusive to women. Sono hito does mean that person but at the same time, Japanese people don't use gendered pronouns when the gender is clarified by the context. Instead of looking at western sources, here's the official data from Japanese media as my proof:


* AmbiguouslyBi: When asked by Todo what his type is, Megumi specifically says "a person", in both the manga and anime, without ever mentioning a specific gender[[labelnote:*]]Crunchyroll's English translation however, incorrectly changes it to "women," but the anime dub keeps it [[https://twitter.com/robbiedaymond/status/1347777742939455491 gender-neutral]].[[/labelnote]]. Notably, before his answer Todo mentions if he likes guys it's fine.

* FatalFlaw: [[TheCynic Pessimism]]. Gojo states that Megumi's tendency to always start preparing for the worst case scenario instead of believing he can achieve victory without resorting to drastic measures is damaging to his effectiveness as a sorcerer. [[spoiler:His decision to summon Mahoraga on Haruta during the Shibuya Incident accidentally attracts [[PersonOfMassDestruction Sukuna]]'s attention and leads to one of the worst losses of human life to a Curse Jujutsu Society has ever seen]].

* TheGift: Megumi was born with the Zen'in clan's highly desired Ten Shadows Technique which leads Sukuna, the king of curses and the strongest cursed spirit, to take an interest in him and Megumi to be considered as the next clan head even if he doesn't want the position. Gojo tells him that hundreds of years ago the heads of the Gojo and Zen'in clans, who had the same techniques as Gojo and Megumi, killed each other in battle, implying that Megumi could be as strong as [[WorldsStrongestMan himself]] one day.

* TakingYouWithMe: Megumi has to defeat and tame a shikigami in order to get it on its side, but can summon untamed curses as well. As a last-ditch attack, he can summon an incredibly powerful curse in the hopes that it will take out his opponent as well as himself.

* WeaponOfXSlaying: It wields a Cursed Tool called the "Sword of Extermination", which is filled with the type of positive energy generated by the [[WhiteMagic Reverse Cursed Technique]] and thus corrodes the bodies of Cursed Spirits on contact.
