The Cursed Spider

    General 
  • All Webbed Up: The webbing the users made are derived from Curse Energy. Megumin, in particular, produces webs, made from shadows.
  • Spider-Sense: All of the hosts possess this. This allows them to detect danger though this can be bypassed like Heavenly Restriction.
  • Take Up My Sword: The Cursed Spider works in a way similar to One For All from My Hero Academia and that the power will get stronger when it's passed from host to host.

    Peter Parker

  • Create Your Own Villain: Peter realized he caused a scientist to transform into a cursed spirit due to a series of unfortunate events the man suffered through, all of which triggered by Peter throwing a bagel at him.

Miles became entangled with the world of sorcerers and curses after an incident with one of Sukuna's fingers.

Working together with the Jujutsu Sorcerers, Miles must locate and contain Sukuna and ensure his evil is destroyed once and for all.
  • Brought Down to Normal: Downplayed since Miles will still have Sukuna's power after transfering the Cursed Spider to Megumi.

  • Enhanced Punch: Miles learns the Black Flash technique during the Kyoto Goodwill Event arc.
  • Has a Type: In Jujutsu Kaisen fashion, Miles has this. He likes girls, like Kat Dennings, who have even proportions in breasts and butts like cantaloupes.
  • My Greatest Failure: Miles deeply regrets not only what happened to Peter but also abandoning his parents and let them believe that he died.
  • Nice Guy: Miles's team knows how compassionate their friend is. Miles helps Yuji in securing the dead body of a student to safely deliver it back to his mother.
  • Shock and Awe: Miles had this in the form of the Venom Blasts.
  • Your Days Are Numbered: As the one being Sukuna's vessel, Miles knows he'll be executed by the Jujutsu sorcerers after all of Sukuna's fingers are found and recovered.
