Appearance Hajime Kashimo

400 years ago, Hajime was an elderly man with light colored eyes that have short zig zag lines underneath them. He had thick eyebrows and long light colored hair tied together in a disheveled style.

Most of it was kept tied back behind his head with a single band and reached just beyond his neck. He also had some of the hair on top partied and tied into two buns on the right and left sides of his head. He wore a traditional dark colored haori.

Incarnated into a new body, Hajime has a much younger appearance as a Culling Game player. He retains the lightning-shaped lines connected to the bottom of his eyelids and his disheveled hairstyle is mostly the same but with bangs in the front.

Hajime wears simple, light colored clothing including a large robe with a scrunched collar around the neck area. The sleeves of his robe are slightly rolled up to reveal Hajime’s bandage wrapped forearms. Hajime also wears matching pants and shoes of the same color as well.

Hajime Kashimo Personality

Hajime is the perfect example of a jujutsu sorcerer from the past who lives for fighting strong opponents. Towards the end of his life, Hajime was ultimately bored and unsatisfied with the battles he fought.

He values life very differently from people of the modern-day and only agreed to Kenjaku’s terms in order to fight Sukuna, the most powerful potential opponent.

The incarnated sorcerer quickly became bored with the Culling Game even after slaughtering over forty players. His focus became exclusively on searching out Sukuna which eventually lead him to cross paths with Kinji Hakari.

Hakari provided Hajime with a real challenge, which he found very interesting due to the unique nature of Hakari’s abilities. Rather than take the easy route of outlasting Hakari’s jackpot, Hajime desired to kill him while he was unkillable for the most satisfying win possible. To Hajime, anything less is how a loser thinks.

Synopsis Hajime Kashimo

Perfect Preparation Arc

Having killed a male sorcerer, Hajime expresses frustration over how weak the opponents in Tokyo Colony No. 2 are and wonders where Sukuna is. Hajime decides to add a rule to the Culling Game using 100 points from her current total of 200.

The 9th Rule of the Culling Game as specified by Hajime allows all players to access information about other players by accessing Kogane. These including; full names, amount of points, number of rules a player has added and their current colony.

Before entering the Culling Game, Yuji’s group use the information provided by Hajime’s new rule to plan their attack with Kinji Hakari deciding to target Hajime in Colony 2 because they appear to be the strongest fighter in the game.

Abilities and Powers Hajime Kashimo

Overall Skill Level: Hajime Kashimo is one of the strongest sorcerers Kenjaku came across 400 years ago. Kenjaku considered him only inferior to the likes of Sukuna.

Even as an elderly man, Hajime could decimate entire battlefields and leave numerous dismembered corpses in his wake.

Returned to a youthful body with a second chance at the prime of his life, Hajime quickly dominated the Culling Game and became the first player to add a new rule.

Hajime effortlessly eliminated at least forty other players in only twelve days and gained notoriety throughout the Tokyo colonies. Hajime considered all those he eliminated to be far too weak, even more so than those from 400 years ago.

When Hajime encountered Panda, they quickly considered that the harmless animal could actually be another player. He attacked Panda and completely outclassed him in a fight.

Panda considered Hajime to be overwhelmingly swift and devastatingly strong. Hajime’s speed, strength, and durability quickly overpowered even Panda’s Gorilla Mode.

Able to overcome cursed corpse’s attacks, including withstanding Unblockable Drumming Beat with ease, Hajime considered Panda to be a weakling as well.

Even when faced with Panda’s trump card, Hajime easily overcame his opponent’s Triceratops Mode using his electrified cursed energy that struck like a bolt of lightning.

Matched up against Hakari, Hajime was able to go toe-to-toe with the elite Jujutsu High student while he was overflowing with infinite cursed energy.

While the damage wasn’t long lasting due to Hakari’s fully automatic reverse cursed technique, Hajime was able to momentarily overpower him by blasting his arm off with a bolt of lightning.

Master Hand to Hand Combatant: Hajime is an exceptional fighter on all accounts and this is exemplified by his mastery of martial arts.

Rather than depend on his cursed technique, Hajime prefers close combat and overwhelms his opponent with flurries of strikes supplemented by electrified cursed energy.

Even while armed with his pole, Hajime openly engaged in unarmed striking and pummeled Panda with a barrage of punches.

Up against an opponent with physical capabilities improved by infinite cursed energy, Kashimo was still able to hold his own and fight on even terms with Hakari. He hit him with a three hit combination that included a high kick, a right jab, and a knee to the face.

Then he countered Hakari’s flying knee with a spinning elbow. A testament to Hajime’s skill in close combat is his ability to parry attacks into grappling situations to land elbows and knees.
