Jujutsu Kaisen's quotes that strike the heart: memorable lines that drew attention in the anime and film

Unfortunately, from here on it’s overtime work.Kento Nanami

Jujutsu Kaisen Nanamin: "From here on, it's overtime work."

This line from Kento Nanami captures the tension of battle alongside his unique composure and humor.

Because Nanami has experience as a salaryman and is usually serious, rational, and values his time, his distinctive comeback of bringing up “overtime work” in the middle of a fight really stands out.

It eases the tension of the combat while still conveying his cool judgment and professionalism, making viewers chuckle despite the situation.

It perfectly reflects Nanami’s character—where seriousness and humor coexist—and it’s a line that leaves a lasting impression.

At least spit out a curse in your final moments.Suguru Geto

At least at the very end, spit out a curse.

These are the words of Suguru Geto, who always acts according to his convictions and stays calm.

In everyday life, some of us may find it hard to express our opinions and feelings honestly.

However, being open can help build trust with those around us.

And when we face adversity or pressure, showing our true selves can encourage others to support us.

In Geto’s words, you can sense the inner conflict within someone who remains composed.

We, too, should value living without regrets and not hiding who we are.

Exorcise the curses, again and again and again! Confidence and others will follow after that!Zen'in Maki

Some of you may have felt down after failing at work or in your studies.

Maki Zen’in, who possesses powerful abilities as a jujutsu sorcerer yet struggles with her family relationships, conveys through her words that overcoming hardship requires your own effort.

Even if you fail at something, it may be important to first reflect on why you failed and then think about what to do next.

It would be great if we could keep challenging ourselves without giving up, even after repeated failures, and turn those efforts into confidence.

If I have time to curse someone, I’d rather spend it thinking about the people I care about.Tsumiki Fushiguro

She’s a character who might be considered more of a supporting role, but with her looks and mindset, she seems to have plenty of fans.

In a manga where battles using jujutsu are the main focus, she appears as an ordinary person with no connection to jujutsu at all.

She’s Megumi Fushiguro’s stepsister, and she cares deeply for her brother even though they aren’t related by blood.

Then Tsumiki falls under a certain curse and becomes bedridden… Saying any more would be quite the spoiler! Here’s one of her lines that really shows her kindness.

It’s considered one of her signature quotes, so be sure to look out for it when you read the manga.

If a guy’s taste in women is boring, he himself is boring too.Aoi Todo

I feel like a person’s hobbies and preferences reveal something deep about who they are—their true character.

As Aoi Todo says, one clear way to get a read on someone is to see what kind of women they’re into.

The type of person you’re attracted to connects to your instincts, so your true nature inevitably shows through there.

Maybe even the parts of your personality you haven’t noticed yourself can be glimpsed in your casual likes and tastes.

There is no such thing as a regretless death for a sorcerer.Masamichi Yaga

I think many of us have felt regret after making mistakes in everyday life.

Some may also have regretted being underprepared for work or study.

The sorcerers in Jujutsu Kaisen are constantly side by side with danger, and they make various sacrifices in fulfilling their missions.

From Masamichi Yaga’s words, we sense a resolve to accept the gap between ideals and reality, put one’s feelings in order, and seek meaning even in adversity.

Even if we fail, we should strive to face the decisions we’ve made with our full effort at all times.

The rest is up to you.Kento Nanami

Nanamin: "I'm counting on you for the rest." The Last Moments of Kento Nanami [Jujutsu Kaisen]

This is the line Nanami Kento left to Yuji Itadori in the end.

While cutting down the swarming mutated humans one after another, Nanami’s body had already reached its limit—so much so that he murmured, “I’m tired.” In that moment, Mahito appeared behind him, and Nanami left these words to Yuji before being struck down.

Nanami hesitated at first, thinking, “If I tell Yuji this, it will become a curse that binds him,” but he ultimately decided to say it.

Considering Nanami’s emotions—including that inner conflict—makes the weight of these words all the more palpable.
