Key things
- An incomplete extension of Megumi Fushiguro's domain, the Chimera Shadow Garden holds the potential for immense power.
- Hanami's unrevealed domain extension, the Shining Sea of Growing Branches, remains a mystery in the Jujutsu Kaisen manga.
- Special Class Magician Yuki Tsukumo's Invisible Domain Extension disappointed fans due to its potential power.
In the cursed world of Gege Akutami Jujutsu Kaisenan innate technique simply known as Domain extension is undoubtedly one of the most creative parts of her energy system. Using the barrier, the most skilled wizards can create their own domain where their cursed techniques are not only enhanced, but also guaranteed to hit their opponents.

Jujutsu Kaisen: The Best Female Characters in the Series
Female characters can sometimes be sidelined in shonen anime, but Jujutsu Kaisen does these women justice.
Not every wizard or curse can use domain extensions, but those who do have unique and fascinating ones. However, there is a fair share of characters in the series who have confirmed that they can use it, but never get the chance to do so. This is quite unfortunate as there is a lot of potential in their unrevealed barrier techniques that they were never able to fully demonstrate.
5 Megumi Fushiguro (Full Version)
Chimera Shadow Garden remained incomplete until the end
- First performance: Chapter 1 (Manga) Episode 1 (Anime)
surprisingly Megumi Fushiguro he actually revealed his domain extension during the Death Painting Arc and his name is Chimera Shadow Garden. However, he immediately stated that it was incomplete and that he still needed to master it before he could use the full potential of the technique.
Megumi unleashed the Chimera Shadow Garden several more times, with his fight against Reggie Star being one of his most memorable uses. But the streak came to its conclusion before he got a chance to finish it. Even Ryomen Sukuna couldn't complete this domain expansion when he took over Megumi's body as he preferred to keep using his Malevolent Shrine instead.
The incomplete Chimera Shadow Garden let Megumi fill the area with shadows that she could use to summon multiple Shikigami at once. This is already a pretty useful domain extension, so the full version has the potential to be one of the most powerful in the entire series, especially if Megumi could use it in conjunction with her strongest shikigami, Mahoraga
4 Hanami
Gojo exorcised this cursed spirit before they had a chance to use it
- First performance: Chapter 10 (Manga) Episode 5 (Anime)
The four main Cursed Special Grade Spirits all had the ability to use Domain Extension: Jogo, Dagon, and Mahito had really powerful ones, but unfortunately, Hanami they never got a chance to display their own domain extension before their demise. They tried to use it against Yuji Itadori and Aoi Todo, but were interrupted by Satoru Gojo before it could be activated. The same wizard later exorcised them during the Shibuya Incident arc.

Jujutsu Kaisen: 6 characters that can defeat Mahoraga
These JJK characters could defeat Devin General Mahoraga.
Hanami was a particularly powerful cursed spirit that specialized in using flowers and plants to fight, so their domain expansion could be unique and powerful. What's particularly fascinating is that Gege Akutami described how he imagines it would work, and that description was later borrowed by a mobile game Jujutsu Kaisen: Phantom Parade which features Hanami as an enemy character that can use domain extensions. Called Shining Sea of Growing Branches, it allows them to summon a beautiful field of flowers where their sunlight will always hit their opponents. However, Phantom show is 100% non-canon supplemental material, so it's not certain that Hanami's domain expansion would work like this in the manga.
3 Ryu Ishigori
A powerful wizard incarnate with destructive powers
- First performance: Chapter 173 (Manga)
Ryu Ishigori is a powerful sorcerer from 400 years in the past who was incarnated by Kenjak to participate in the Culling Game. In the middle of a group battle against Yuto Okkotsu and Takako Uro, he summoned his domain extension next to them, but the concurrent unstable barriers canceled each other out.
Later in Culling, Ryu was killed by Sukuna before he could properly display his domain extension, leaving fans to wonder what it actually looked like and how it would enhance his innate cursed techniques, Cursed Energy Dispatch and Granite Blast. .
Ryu was about strong raw power, being able to shoot beams of concentrated cursed energy from his cannon-shaped pompadour, though his main weakness is that these beams were relatively easy to dodge. So his undetected domain extension had the potential to be the most useful tool in his arsenal, especially if it allowed him to automatically hit anyone trapped in it with a few hits of his devastating Granite Blast.
2 Takako Uro
A member of the Fujiwara clan with a cursed mindbending technique
- First performance: Chapter 173 (Manga)
Takako Uro she was another wizard incarnate to participate in the Culling Games, and her domain extension was also broken when she tried to use it at the same time as Yuta and Ryu. This is quite unfortunate as Takako had some fascinating data as she was part of the Sun, Moon and Stars Squad of the mysterious Fujiwara clan.

Jujutsu Kaisen: 6 Reasons Why It Should Get a Sequel or Spinoff
Here are a few reasons why the Jujutsu Kaisen series deserves a spin-off or sequel.
Additionally, Takako's Innate Cursed Technique was among the most creative in the series. Simply known as Sky Manipulation, it allows her to “grab” parts of the atmosphere as if it were an object, using which she can levitate, defend herself, and even attack opponents with a concussive attack called Thin Ice Breaker. Although Takako was not killed like Ryu Ishigori, she was never seen after her failed attempt to use the domain extension. Given how strange yet unique her cursed technique is, it's highly likely that her domain extension would be just as insane, not to mention allowing her to use Thin Ice Breaker without ever missing it.
1 Yuki Tsukumo
A domain extension with the potential to be on par with Gojo and Yuta
- First performance: Chapter 50 (Manga) Episode 20 (Anime)
This is undoubtedly the most disappointing invisible domain extension of all Jujutsu Kaisenbecause Yuki Tsukumo she was one of four special class jujutsu wizards, but was never able to activate her ultimate technique before the end of the series. Before the battle against Kenjaku, she confirmed that she could use the domain extension, but was killed by the same villain before she could do so.
With Gojo's Unlimited Void and Yuta's Authentic Mutual Love being two of the most practical and powerful domain extensions in the series, it's safe to assume that Yuki's would also be part of this prestigious group. So his omission from the manga was met with great disappointment among fans.
Yuki's Innate Cursed Technique, Star Rageallows her to add virtual matter to herself and her personal shikigami, Garuda, to amplify all of her physical attacks. Additionally, her domain expansion would more than likely allow her to add even more mass to herself and perhaps even change the gravity of the trapped area so that her opponents could not move. Most fans hope to witness Yuki's domain expand one day, especially if Gege Akutami decides to make another story set in this world.
