Ko-Guy (
Appearance
Ko-Guy is named after the obvious type of curse he is. He is a relatively large, bipedal, humanoid curse that strongly resembles a normal grasshopper. Ko-Guy uses two of his six legs to stand on and the other four as arms.
Personality
Ko-Guy is not particularly bright. He is capable of speech and communication to some degree, albeit with some occasional trouble. Despite barely being considered intelligent, Ko-Guy believes himself to be very smart. Upon meeting Yuji, nearly everything he talked about revolved about either himself being smart or asking if Yuji if he's smart. When Yuji revealed to him that smart people don't really talk about being smart, he was surprised and covered his mouth to stop talking.
History
Ko-Guy was born from humanity's hatred of the locust plague. At some point he aligned himself with Pseudo-Geto's Group.
Synopsis
Shibuya Incident Arc
Yuji Itadori encountered Ko-Guy munching on a human corpse when he entered the Shibuya Station at the B2F entrance. The young sorcerer asks the curse about Mahito's whereabouts, to which the grasshopper responded by answering the question and adding that he's protecting a cutain here. Yuji took it upon himself to exorcise the curse in order to get rid of the curtain. Ko-Guy was initially overpowered, so he tried a surprise attack, but it didn't work and Itadori promptly exorcised the curse.
Abilities and Powers
Overall Skill Level: Evidenced by his ability to communicate, Ko-Guy is at least a grade 2 cursed spirit with high combat abilities that surpass some semi-grade 1 curses.[2] He is more intelligent than most curses, but the grasshopper curse isn't very smart compared to a typical jujutsu sorcerer. In Shibuya, he was given two simple tasks: guarding the commissioned curtain and killing non-sorcerers.[3]
Despite having natural physical prowess superior to a normal human, Yuji was far superior in physical skill and easily defeated the curse.[4] Mahito mentioned that it must have taken a strong jujutsu sorcerer to defeat him.[1]
