Character

Masamichi Yaga

Masamichi Yaga in Jujutsu Kaisen (2020), played by Takaya Kuroda.

Masamichi Yaga runs Tokyo Jujutsu High as its principal, a broad, catlike figure who seems more amused than alarmed by the chaos his students cause. He specializes in crafting cursed corpses—puppet-like shikigami built from his own technique—and watches over the next generation of sorcerers with a gruff, hands-off patience.

He's the rare authority figure in shonen who actually feels like he's seen it all before, dry and unbothered even when the world is ending. Takaya Kuroda gives him a weary, rumbling calm that suggests decades of watching talented kids walk into danger, making his occasional flashes of real concern land harder for being so rare.

Masamichi Yaga (夜 (や) 蛾 (が) 正 (まさ) 道 (みち) , Yaga Masamichi) is a character in Jujutsu Kaisen. He was Tokyo Jujutsu High's principal and a grade 1 jujutsu sorcerer, as well as a cursed corpse creator and Panda's father. Prior to becoming principal sometime after 2006, Yaga was a second-year teacher to Satoru Gojo, Suguru Geto, and Shoko Ieiri.
