Jujutsu Kaisen: Jason Statham Inspired One Of The Most Popular Characters

As a dedicated gamer and avid fan of both anime and Hollywood movies, I was utterly captivated when I stumbled upon the stunning revelation that Toji Fushiguro from Jujutsu Kaisen was inspired by none other than the charismatic Jason Statham. Having grown up watching Statham’s action-packed films and following the rise of Toji in the anime world, this cross-cultural connection struck a chord deep within me.


If you’re a fan of Jujutsu Kaisen, you might find it intriguing to know that one of its most captivating characters, Toji Fushiguro, was reportedly influenced by Jason Statham from Hollywood (Gege Akutami, the anime’s creator, disclosed this fact at a recent exhibition about the series).

From the Big Screen to Manga Pages

In the captivating series “Jujutsu Kaisen,” introduced in 2018 as a manga and later as an anime, we delve into a realm teeming with magic, curses, and students confronting supernatural menaces. Amidst this whirlwind of chaos and the development of its youthful characters, Toji Fushiguro emerges as a formidable adversary during Gojo’s Past storyline. Originally hailing from the Zenin Clan, he now functions as a hired gun, renowned for eliminating sorcerers sans the need for any curses himself.

Statham’s on-screen figures frequently conceal intricate and at times sad past experiences, similar to Toji’s strained connection with his son. This complexity gives them an alluring depth, allowing viewers to connect with their hardened personas.
