Yuta Okkotsu Powers Explained; Jujutsu Kaisen Anime Marvel

Brief Summary

When it comes to anime, Japan is the undisputed king and has been so for a long time, which is saying a lot considering how the film industry has sustained itself against the dominance of Hollywood for a sustainable period of time.

Anime series too has been extremely popular in Japan and has transcended borders, which is why there is a massive demand for Japanese anime series and movies for a long time in the western world, which speaks of the clout that Japanese entertainment has had on the entire world.

Jujutsu Kaisen is one extremely popular anime series since the past few years with an interesting storyline and just as many interesting characters to propel the story at a smooth and steady pace so that the audiences’ interest isn’t wavered from it.

Gege Akutami is the writer and illustrator of the series in the Manga genre, which is are comics or graphic novels from Japan. A big reason for its popularity is Yuta Okkotsu, the lead protagonist of the series.

What is more interesting is that he is a teenager that has the spirit of Rika Orimoto, the Queen of Curses, guiding him to his path even though she died six years prior to the story and has been cursed because both were childhood sweethearts that promised each other to get married upon growing up.

He did make an appearance in the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 movie and managed to grab many eyeballs, despite having negligible screen time in the anime series, which did not hinder his popularity in any manner as his standalone movie was enough to prove his mettle.

For the unversed, Yuta Okkotsu is a special grade sorcerer cursed by his childhood friend Rika Orimoto and is soon taken under the wing of Goju Satoru as a first year student at Tokyo Jujutsu High and trains him along with Maki Zenim, Panda, and Toge Inumaki.

Once Orimoto passed away, Okkotsu gained his renowned powers and abilities when he was cursed by the former due to her immense love for him and the constant urge to be by his side, which led to her becoming the source of his power.

The shocking twist that is revealed later on is that it wasn’t Rika who cursed Yuta but it was the other way round albeit inadvertently as Okkotsu could not bear the death of his dear friend.

List of Powers of Yuta Okkotsu

Copy Cursed Techniques is one of the well-known powers that Yuta possesses, which is similar to The Copy Ninja of Naruto’s Kakashi Hatake, but this is one through which Yuta can give Kakashi a run for his money where he doesn’t even require additional tools to flawlessly copy curse any technique, which he can pick up in a flash.

Summoning Weapons is another renowned power that Yuta is endowed with where he can do so with the help of Rika, which was shown in the movie when he summoned a megaphone with the ‘Snakes and Fangs’ symbol that belongs to the Inumaki Clan, which can be shown in detail in the manga series.

Yuta Okkotsu possesses a large amount of cursed energy, which he can hardly exhaust even during fights as he belongs to a famous and powerful clan but here it needs to be mentioned that he obtained them from Rika, while it was the combination of these powers that helped him to construct a tank within himself, in which his cursed energy is stored in unlimited measure.
