The world of Jujutsu Kaisen is unforgiving for the weak, which is why one must do everything necessary in order to survive. A lot of characters in JJK often resort to using weapons to get out of precarious situations, while others master and hone their arts.

Special Grade curses are exceptionally powerful, and they can make short work of the best sorcerers.

However, there are also some exceptions who solely rely on their cursed techniques and physical abilities to fight. While they may be in the minority, their strength is unmistakable. With that in mind, here are the strongest Jujutsu Kaisen characters who don't use weapons.

This post contains spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen.

7 Aoi Todo

Armed With Dangerous Cursed Technique So Never Needed To Use Weapons

Aoi Todo from JJK

Aoi Todo is a student from Kyoto Jujutsu High School. He is a grade 1 sorcerer who has been blessed with an incredible physique. As a result, his physical abilities are superior to most characters in Jujutsu Kaisen, so he can beat his opponents without even using cursed energy.

If raw strength isn't enough, Todo can always make use of Boogie Woogie to turn the tables in his favor. He is also capable of using Black Flash, which can annihilate most cursed spirits with ease. With so many powerful abilities, it's hardly surprising that Aoi Todo doesn't rely on them. However, things might change since he lost his hand.

6 Itadori Yuji

Relies On His Physical Abilities More

Itadori Yuji is the main protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen, so he is almost always in the spotlight. He was shoehorned into the world of sorcery after he devoured one of Sukuna's fingers. While it granted him strength, it also made him a threat to humanity. The higher-ups at Jujutsu High wanted Yuji exterminated, but Gojo Satoru saved him.

The power to manipulate Ki is one that's seen in many anime series. These abilities, however, are without a doubt the strongest.

Yuji soon began training and learned to use his own cursed energy. At one point, Yuji was also given a weapon, but it broke. Since then, Yuji has relied on his strength and speed to get the job done. Yuji has also mastered the Black Flash, a potent technique that allowed him to beat Mahito in Shibuya.

5 Gojo Satoru

Strongest Sorcerer In The World

Gojo Satoru is the strongest sorcerer in the world. Naturally, his strength is insane, and there is hardly anyone who can overwhelm him in battle. The secret to Gojo Satoru's strength is Limitless and Six Eyes, two of the most overpowered abilities in Jujutsu Kaisen. With the help of Six Eyes, Gojo Satoru can never run out of cursed energy, so, in theory, there is not a single person who can outlast him.

Meanwhile, Limitless grants him the ability to manipulate and distort space at will. Given his insane abilities, it's hardly surprising that Gojo Satoru never felt the need to use weapons in fights. If he ever did start using weapons, it's safe to say that they would only amplify his strength.

4 Mahito

Could Kill After Touching His Opponent

Mahito was a massive threat to humanity because of his Idle Transfiguration cursed technique, with which he could reshape souls to his liking. The ability was a nuisance in Mahito's hands, as he often transformed human beings into curses with little to no sentience.

As a special grade curse, Mahito's strength and speed were superior to most human beings and even other curses. To make matters worse, he could also use domain expansion. Upon activation, Mahito was connected to the souls of those trapped within, allowing him to easily transfigure them.

3 Yuki Tsukumo

A Special Grade Sorcerer

Yuki Tsukumo is one of the four special-grade sorcerers in existence, meaning there are only a handful of characters who pose a threat to her. Despite her strength, Yuki Tsukumo is not an arrogant individual, although she isn't afraid to speak her mind either.

Yuki Tsukumo is an expert at hand-to-hand combat, which, coupled with her amazing tactical intellect, makes her nearly unstoppable. She also possesses immense amounts of curse energy, so she can keep fighting for prolonged periods of time. Since Tsukumo excels in so many fields, she doesn't require weapons to fight.

2 Kinji Hakari

Has A Special Kind Of Cursed Energy

Kinji Hakari is a third-year student at Jujutsu High who was suspended for his eccentric behavior. Eventually, Hakari began operating a fight club for jujutsu sorcerers who wanted to earn some money. While Kinji Hakari is yet to fight in the anime, Yuta Okkotsu has stated that the former is stronger between the two. Whether it was an exaggeration or an accurate assessment remains to be seen.

Without disclosing too many details, JJK fans should know that Kinji Hakari solely utilizes his cursed energy and physical strength to get the better of his opponents. He does not use any kind of weapons in fights. Furthermore, he also has access to a domain.

1 Kenjaku

An Ancient Sorcerer With A Ton Of Experience

Kenjaku is the main villain of the Culling Game arc. He is a sorcerer with centuries' worth of experience, which makes it extremely difficult to outsmart him in combat. In order to live, Kenjaku has switched multiple bodies, and currently, he occupies that of Suguru Geto.

So, he has access to all of Geto's powers, including Cursed Spirit Manipulation. Aside from the cursed technique, Kenjaku is highly proficient in close-range combat. His speed and endurance are also rather impressive. Clearly, Kenjaku is a dangerous foe, and it will take a great deal of effort to bring him down.
