Ah, Choso JJK. If you haven’t been introduced to this guy yet, you’re in for a ride. Not gonna lie, Choso is one of those characters who walks the fine line between being a full-blown villain and a guy with some deep issues—think of him like that one friend who always needs to be right but you can’t help but feel bad for them. Yeah, that’s Choso. In the Jujutsu Kaisen universe, he’s got some seriously wicked cursed abilities and a backstory that’s, well, a lot. Let’s break it down, shall we?
Who the Heck is Choso in Jujutsu Kaisen?
Okay, so first things first—Choso isn’t your standard cursed spirit, not by a long shot. He’s part of a little club called the “cursed wombs” (which sounds like the world’s worst fraternity, honestly), and he’s a lot more complicated than just another monster to fight. He’s introduced during the Shibuya Incident arc, which is kind of like the anime equivalent of opening Pandora’s box—except it’s full of blood, curses, and more blood. Did I mention blood? Anyway, Choso’s not your average baddie. He’s got a huge connection to his brothers, which plays into everything he does. It’s like if your siblings were cursed to destroy you, and yet you still loved them. Yeah. Heavy stuff.
Choso’s backstory is a bit of a doozy. He was created by a curse user, Noritoshi Kamo, who basically thought, “Hey, let’s make some super-powered cursed beings to screw with people.” Choso and his brothers weren’t born into the world with sunshine and rainbows, and you can tell by his, uh, less-than-happy demeanor. Still, there’s something oddly relatable about him. Like, I get it—being forced to work with your dysfunctional family… but also, maybe not kill everyone?
Choso JJK’s Backstory—Wait, It Gets Weirder
So, let’s rewind a bit. Choso and his brothers were part of these cursed wombs, and let’s just say things were less than ideal for them growing up. But despite all that, they formed a bond. A brotherly bond that’s thicker than the blood they control. Which, by the way, is super freaky. I once spilled ketchup on my new white shirt and nearly cried—Choso’s over here controlling blood like it’s a remote control. Anyway, these cursed wombs were made to be weapons, and Choso was one of the strongest, just like his brothers.
But here’s where it gets a little more… personal. Choso doesn’t just fight for survival—he’s got deeper reasons for everything he does. His bond with his siblings is what keeps him going. It’s not about being a mindless villain. No, no, he’s trying to protect what’s left of his “family.” I’ve had my fair share of crazy sibling moments (like the time my brother borrowed my jacket and turned it into a crop top—ugh), but this? This takes “family drama” to a whole new level.
Choso JJK’s Abilities—Blood, Blood, and More Blood
Now we get to the fun stuff: Choso’s abilities. Y’all, this guy does things with blood that would make even the bravest Jujutsu sorcerer sweat. If you think about it, blood’s already pretty gross on its own, right? Now imagine controlling it. Yeah, no thanks. But that’s Choso’s jam—he’s got an insane mastery of blood manipulation.
Blood Manipulation
Okay, listen. If I could manipulate blood, I’d probably use it to get out of washing dishes (not gonna lie). But Choso? He takes it to the next level. With his blood manipulation, he’s able to control his own blood—like, he can weaponize it. It’s honestly like some weird science experiment gone wrong. He can use his blood to attack, defend, or even form weapons out of it. Need a knife? Just form one from your own blood. Want to choke someone out? Blood’s got you covered. It’s like having an infinite supply of sharp, deadly knives… but, like, inside you. Creepy, right?
Boiling Blood Technique
Here’s where it gets really wild. Choso has this move called Boiling Blood. It’s not some cute little spa treatment; he uses it to literally boil someone’s blood from the inside out. No big deal, just casually turning your insides into a pressure cooker. I swear, if I had a dime for every time I tried to come up with a clever dinner idea and failed, I’d still have more options than boiling blood.
But, seriously, this technique’s a game-changer in a fight. If you’re not careful and you don’t dodge it, your organs will basically turn into hot soup. Can’t say I’m jealous of anyone on the receiving end of that one.
Choso JJK’s Cursed Techniques—You Thought Blood Was It? Think Again
But wait, there’s more. Choso’s got cursed techniques that are straight-up wild. I mean, blood manipulation is one thing, but what about using cursed energy in the most twisted ways possible?
Cursed Technique Reversal—Wait, This Does What?
So, get this—Choso has a cursed technique reversal. Yeah, I didn’t know that was even a thing either. This guy can reverse his blood manipulation and use it to heal. That’s right—he’s basically playing both offense and defense. It’s like being stuck in a video game where you can both level up and heal after every battle. Choso just takes it a step further by using the blood that’s supposed to be killing you to fix you instead. Wait, did I just mix up my game metaphors? Whatever. You get it.
Piercing Blood Technique—Sharp, Pointy, and Deadly
Oh, and let’s not forget about the Piercing Blood technique. Basically, Choso can turn his blood into a sharp projectile and use it to pierce through anything in its path. I can barely get a clean stab with a knife in my kitchen, but this guy’s making blood projectiles like it’s just another Tuesday. What. A. Show-off. This ability is great for taking down enemies who think they’re too tough to be defeated by, you know, regular weapons. Nope. Blood does the trick.
Choso JJK’s Role in Jujutsu Kaisen—Is He the Villain, Or Just Misunderstood?
Let’s talk about where Choso fits in the bigger picture. He’s not just a random cursed spirit showing up to be an obstacle. Choso’s deeply tied to the Shibuya Incident, a massive event in the Jujutsu Kaisen story. But the kicker? He’s not as evil as he seems. Sure, he’s out there causing mayhem, but he’s doing it for family. His whole story arc is about dealing with that internal conflict. “Am I really just a monster? Or am I doing this for the ones I love?” Trust me, I’ve had these exact thoughts after finishing a bag of chips alone—except, y’know, with a lot more blood involved.
And then there’s his relationship with Yuji Itadori. Choso looks at Yuji like he’s his brother, which is super confusing at first. But as the series progresses, you realize—this isn’t some standard “bad guy vs. good guy” narrative. It’s a story about someone struggling with who they are and what they stand for. I’m not crying; you’re crying.
Choso JJK isn’t just a character who pops up for the sake of chaos. His abilities, backstory, and cursed techniques create a layered, tragic figure. He’s a cursed spirit, yes, but he’s also someone struggling with loss, loyalty, and the need for human connection. And honestly? I don’t blame him for that. It’s hard out here for a cursed spirit.
