The grade 1 sorcerers are the perfect example of what all jujutsu sorcerers should strive to become, as it is the highest grade a jujutsu sorcerer can hope to reach through the natural progression through the ranks- as special grade is reserved for the anomalies. They are sometimes capable of going toe to toe with special grade cursed spirits, and because of that, they are entrusted with high-risk missions, highly volatile information, and hefty pay. Here is every grade 1 sorcerer in the series.
Updated October 29, by Emedo Destiny:Sorcerers in Jujutsu Kaisen are ranked according to numerous criteria, which include cursed energy level, cursed techniques, experience, combat abilities, and cursed energy application. The Grade 1 jujutsu sorcerers are the pinnacle of society and the standard that all sorcerers should strive to attain.The Special Gradeis reserved for special cases that might appear from time to time, and as a result, the existence of that grade should not serve to discredit the work needed to attain the level of Grade 1. They are the highest-paid sorcerers who are entrusted with the safety of the jujutsu world. Here are all of them and some of their most powerful abilities.
5Atsuya Kusakabe
Atsuya Kusakabe is the teacher of the second-year students at Tokyo Jujutsu High. He has a high sense of self-preservation and has shown to be deceitful if it means staying out of danger. Kusakabe reliesheavily on his swordsmanshipand physical prowess to quickly dispatch cursed spirits. Due to his lack of an innate technique, he mastered the New Shadow Style, which requires casting a Simple Domain, finely controlling cursed energy, and imbuing it into his katana.
His Batto Sword Drawing technique is the fastest sword drawing technique in the New Shadow Style, and it entails rotating his cursed energy around the blade to greatly increase his drawing speed, enabling him to speed blitz opponents. He has severally admitted that he stands no chance against a special grade but is confident that he can beat those he perceives as below his level.
Most Powerful Ability: New Shadow Sword Style
Atsuya Kusakabe rose to the rank of grade 1 without an innate technique due to his knowledge of the New Shadow Sword Style which involves coating his sword in cursed energy. He depends very much on his physical prowess and ability with a sword. His Batto-Sword drawing technique is one of the fastest sword drawing techniques ever, and quick enough to catch most people off-guard.
4Kento Nanami
Nanami was formerly a salaryman before reentering the jujutsu world and rising to grade 1. He is a mentor and close friend of Yuji Itadori. Nanami is well known to be one of the story’s best critical thinkers and problem solvers, always handling challenging situations correctly. He is a master swordsman, carefully incorporating his blunt sword with his cursed technique, allowing him to cut through anything, including cursed energy, in the form of a shield.

He is strong enough to have survived a direct attack on his soul from Mahito, with the latter acknowledging him as a strong and worthy opponent. He is a user of Black Flash and used to hold the record for themost consecutive Black Flashhits. His cursed energy manipulation is among the best in the series, and he can use it to fortify his body and attacks. When he unleashes his binding vows, which restrict his powers, he can get a power boost of up to 130%, which he can use to catch enemies off guard.
Most Powerful Ability: Ratio Technique
Nanami is well known for his incredible physical abilities, but his ratio technique is easily his most powerful ability. The 7:3 ratio weak spot it generates on a target can greatly increase the effectiveness of his punches, allowing him to kill an enemy with it easily. Combined with his blunt sword, this technique allows Nanami to hold his own against powerful special-grade cursed spirits.
3Aoi Todo
Todo Aoi is a third-year student at Kyoto Jujutsu High School and the only grade 1 sorcerer still a student. He was mentored by Yuki Tsukumo, who put him through severe training methods that made him rise ahead of his peers. When Geto attacked Kyoto, Todo defeated five grade 1 and one special grade cursed spirit all on his own.Aoi has a physical strengthand quickness that is on par with Yuji, and coupled with his battle experience and IQ, he was able to overpower Yuji a couple of times.
Due to his big and strong build, he prefers close-range combat more than anything, being able to overpower his enemies with brute force. Despite being built like a tank, he possesses insane speed and reflexes. His technique allows him to swap the position of anything with cursed energy in a specific radius with a clap of his hands. In his battle against Hanami with Yuji, heused his teleportation techniqueto create tactics to counter Hanami. He can also utilize a Simple Domain to neutralize cursed techniques in an area.
Most Powerful Ability: Black Flash
Todo has an innatetechnique named the Boogie Woogie that debuted in his battle with Hanami, but that is not his strongest technique, as it is not a win condition but a wildcard. Although he has only performed it once, during his fight with Hanami, he was able to deal damage to the incredibly durable special-grade cursed spirit.
2Mei Mei
Mei Mei is an independent sorcerer who only works when monetary compensation is guaranteed. She is considered strong, even by the strongest jujutsu sorcerer. Mei Mei believed her innate technique was irrelevant because it only gave her control over birds. She trained herself to become a solid close-range fighter so she won’t depend on it. She has showcased mastery over a two-handed battle axe, capable of cleavingspecial grade cursed spiritsapart with powerful swings. She was strong enough to shatter the coffin and the giant gravestone of the Smallpox Deity, doing so multiple times.

Her Black Bird Manipulation technique allows her to imbue cursed energy inside crows and control them. She can control multiple birds at a time and over great distances; they also share visual links, enabling her to see what they see. When she unleashes the binding vows on the crows, they commit suicide by hurling themselves at the enemy with a high level of cursed energy and speed. A single bird strike is strong enough to exorcise a special grade cursed spirit with a hit, with Gojo being the only man to survive it.
Most Powerful Ability: Bird Strike
Bird Strike is an extension of Mei Mei’s innate technique that involvesactivating a Binding Vowplaced on her crows. This makes them commit suicide and greatly enhances the cursed energy levels in the birds. The crow then mimics a kamikaze pilot, hurling itself at a target with a dangerous speed. The resulting damage is strong enough to exorcise a special grade cursed spirit.

Panda is the pinnacle of Masamichi’s creations, a mutated cursed corpse with three different self-sustaining cores, specialties, and emotions. He was nearly promoted to special grade by the higher-ups due to the potential threat of creating an army of sentient cursed corpses of Panda’s caliber.
He was a strong close-range fighter, capable of exorcizing curses on his own. He alsotaught Panda all he knewand could fight a sorcerer without his cursed corpses. He profoundly understands cursed energy and souls, which helps him breathe life into inanimate objects. He was also capable of using Kusakabe’s nephew’s soul to create a corpse with his personality to soothe his mother.
