About

Nobara Kugisaki is a first-year student at Tokyo Jujutsu High who left her rural village behind for the city she always dreamed of. Confident and blunt, she fights with the Straw Doll Technique, driving nails into curses with a hammer and a steady hand.

Abilities

Straw Doll Technique

Her core technique, channeling cursed energy through nails and a hammer for ranged and melee strikes.

Hairpin

Detonates nails she has already embedded in a target, turning them into a burst of cursed energy.

Resonance

Uses a piece of a target on a straw doll to deal damage that reaches the original from a distance.

Black Flash

A perfectly timed strike where cursed energy lands a split second after the hit, multiplying its force.

Notable battles

Nobara's clashes with the curse-womb siblings Eso and Kechizu stand out as her most striking early fights, where she leaned on Resonance to hurt them from afar while keeping her composure under pressure.
