10 Most Powerful Cursed Tools in Jujutsu Kaisen, Ranked

by

Warning! This article contains spoilers for the Jujutsu Kaisen manga.

Jujutsu Kaisen takes place in a thrilling but perilous world where Jujutsu sorcerers battle Curses—powerful, destructive spirits created from negative human emotions. These sorcerers use their unique abilities and special weapons, called Cursed Tools, to fight back. Cursed Tools are imbued with cursed energy, giving them special powers and even allowing those without sorcery skills to help protect humanity.

Cursed Tools come in all shapes and sizes, ranging from ancient artifacts that can cancel out cursed energy to modern, specially-built weapons for individual fighters. This makes them a diverse and dangerous collection.

10) Kento Nanami’s Cleaver

I’m a huge fan of Kento Nanami, and one of the coolest things about him is his weapon! It’s not just any cleaver, but one with a really unique spotted design. Honestly, the cleaver itself isn’t what makes it dangerous – it’s how he uses it to unleash his Cursed Technique, the Ratio Technique. Basically, he can pinpoint a precise spot on his opponent’s body – a 7:3 ratio of their overall length – and know it’s a guaranteed weak point. He can actually see this spot when he’s using the technique, which is seriously intimidating!

Nanami uses a cleaver to perform his Ratio Technique, letting him precisely cut through Cursed Spirits. The cleaver is crucial because it makes his technique much easier and ensures he lands every critical hit. Without it, his technique would be far less effective.

9) Miwa Kasumi’s Katana

I’ve observed that Kasumi Miwa relies heavily on her katana, which is a Cursed Tool she uses for her technique, New Shadow Style: Simple Domain. While the sword itself isn’t anything special, it’s crucial for what’s considered one of the most effective defenses against incredibly powerful Domain Expansions – basically, a way to fight back when someone traps you in their own reality.

The katana isn’t powerful on its own; its strength lies in helping Miwa activate her Simple Domain. Though she can use other sword skills and infuse them with cursed energy, the sword primarily serves as a defensive tool, not an offensive one.

8) Mai Zenin’s Gun

Mai Zenin uses a special revolver as her Cursed Tool. It looks normal, but she constantly powers it with her Cursed Energy. This lets her fire bullets filled with that energy, making them incredibly effective against Curses – potentially even capable of destroying them.

Mai uses a special gun that channels her cursed energy. This allows her to create one incredibly powerful bullet out of thin air using her Cursed Technique, Construction. While making this ‘ace’ bullet takes a lot of energy and tires her out, it’s a crucial part of how she fights.

7) Maki’s Naginata

Maki Zenin wields a unique weapon called the Cursed Tool, a polearm with a blade crafted to perfectly complement her incredible strength and agility. As a Grade 1 tool, it gives her impressive reach and allows her to deliver devastatingly powerful blows. The Cursed Tool highlights how effective a custom-built weapon can be, even without relying on magical techniques.

Though not relying on intricate cursed techniques, this weapon is dependable and strong thanks to its quality and how well it works with Maki’s abilities. It can effectively cut through both Curses and human opponents, and it’s a significant improvement over standard weapons – clearly designed for a remarkably talented sorcerer.

6) Black Rope

The Black Rope is a remarkably rare and potent Cursed Tool with the unique ability to stop Cursed Techniques from working. It’s similar to the Inverted Spear of Heaven, but instead of completely breaking a technique’s connection, it binds and neutralizes it. This makes it a significant danger to someone as powerful as Satoru Gojo.

This special rope once belonged to Miguel, a skilled sorcerer who used to be part of Surugu Geto’s group. Its power to cancel out cursed energy and techniques makes it incredibly useful for both protecting oneself and attacking others. It’s especially effective against sorcerers who use complicated or large-scale abilities, making it one of the most powerful cursed tools around.

5) Dragon-Bone

Dragon-Bone is a special weapon with a unique ability: it builds up cursed energy with each strike, making attacks faster and more powerful over time. This large katana was famously used by Toji Fushiguro, a skilled warrior born without any cursed energy himself, who combined it with his incredible physical abilities. Because of its properties, Dragon-Bone is also an ideal weapon for Maki, who similarly lacks cursed energy.

This tool becomes increasingly dangerous the longer a fight lasts because it constantly gains power with each movement. It’s not just about raw strength; Dragon-Bone uses the user’s speed to create attacks that become quicker and more powerful, overwhelming the opponent’s ability to defend.

4) Slaughter Demon

Slaughter Demon is a powerful Cursed Tool that looks like a small, curved dagger – it’s one of Maki’s preferred weapons. Despite its size, it can cause extremely deep and often fatal injuries. Many assassins and close-combat experts, like Toji, favor it because it can bypass protective Cursed Energy and deliver deadly blows almost instantly.

This dagger is incredibly effective because it delivers a focused and powerful attack, making it ideal for finishing battles swiftly. Both Yuji and Maki have successfully used it against a variety of opponents, including both sorcerers and Curses, proving its strong offensive power.

3) Split Soul Katana

The Split Soul Katana is a powerful cursed tool used by Maki Zenin and later Toji Fushiguro. Unlike normal weapons, it doesn’t rely on physical strength to break through defenses. Instead, it directly attacks the soul of whatever it cuts. As long as the user can see the target’s soul and body are separate, the katana can bypass any defenses – even incredibly strong ones or those reinforced with cursed energy – and cut directly into the soul itself.

This special sword is incredibly effective against opponents like Mahito, who controls souls. Because it directly destroys the soul, it instantly defeats almost any being or object that has one, even if they’re incredibly durable. What makes it even more dangerous is that wounds from this sword can’t be healed with normal energy restoration techniques, making it a truly fearsome weapon for anyone who earns Maki’s anger.

2) Inverted Spear of Heaven

The Inverted Spear of Heaven is a powerful, rare cursed tool that completely shuts down cursed techniques when it touches them. Resembling a small, three-pronged dagger, it essentially cancels out the very foundation of jujutsu sorcery. Toji Fushiguro famously used it to injure and temporarily defeat Satoru Gojo when Gojo was a student, proving it can even overcome seemingly impenetrable techniques like Limitless, making them ineffective.

This tool is incredibly dangerous because it disrupts cursed energy and jujutsu techniques. It was such a threat to the stability of the jujutsu world that Gojo sealed it away and ultimately destroyed it following Toji’s attack.

1) Playful Cloud

This unique weapon is a three-part staff that depends entirely on physical strength, rather than cursed energy. It’s rare because it doesn’t require the user to have any cursed energy of their own – instead, it boosts their natural strength. This makes it a very useful tool, especially for sorcerers who can’t use cursed energy but are exceptionally strong and skilled, such as Toji Fushiguro and Maki Zenin.

Playful Cloud is a surprisingly powerful weapon, easily overcoming strong Curses and sorcerers. It can break through cursed spirits, defenses, and even Domain Expansions. What makes it stand out is its ability to inflict serious damage on even the most powerful Curses – Special Grade threats – without needing any special moves, making it a consistently reliable and destructive weapon in close combat.
