Takeshi Iguchi

Takeshi Iguchi (たけし) is a minor character in the Jujutsu Kaisen series. He is second-year student at Sugisawa Third Municipal High School and was a member of the school's Occult Research Club alongside his friends Yuji Itadori and Setsuko Sasaki.

Appearance
Takeshi is a relatively tall teenage boy with short black hair that juts upward to a point toward the back of his head. His eyes normally remain closed and he has thick black eye brows, long sideburns, as well and wide lips.

Takeshi wears a typical school uniform, a black gakuren and white shoes. While staying in the hospital, he had bandages wrapped around his head and wore stripped hospital clothing.

Personality
Compared to Setsuko, Takeshi is a relatively calm person and a typical teenager who wants to enjoy their time with friends. He's into spooky things and the supernatural just like Yuji and Sasaki and has his nose in the school's rumor mill.

Fearsome Womb Arc
At the Occult Research Club's room, the club members were playing a game of Kokkuri, until the student council president interrupts and informs them that their room is being taken due to a lack of activity report. Setsuko tells the club's theory that the reason for the school's rugby field getting closed is due to it being haunted by a missing man from thirty years prior, but the student president debunks it, saying it was due to ticks.

The student council president then informs them that Yuji is not even in the club and the club doesn't have the minimum required members. Setsuko and Takeshi then go with Yuji to sort things out with the Takagi-sensei, who changed his club activity. After sorting things out with Takagi-sensei, Yuji told Setsuko and Takeshi that he liked the club and wanted to stay, to which they blushingly agree.

Later that night, Setsuko and Takeshi sneaked into school and while in the Occult Research Club room, they try to unseal the cursed charm they found. As they succeed, they are surprised it was a human-looking finger, but in that moment they got attacked by curses. As they ran, they got separated and when they reunited, Takeshi had a curse attached to his head. When Yuji and Megumi reached them, Setsuko and Takeshi were already unconscious and the curse was attempting to eat them, but Yuji saved them.

The next day, Setsuko was at the hospital watching over the injured Takeshi and blaming herself for what happened. Yuji then insists that he is to blame for finding the charm and that people capable of healing him will come tomorrow.

Culling Game Arc
Takeshi was one of the people brought outside of the Sendai Colony's barrier by Kenjaku, who used the location to host the Culling Game. He was seen waking Setsuko Sasaki up and both of them started contemplating the relationship of the massive black barrier with occult activity.

Abilities and Powers
Overall Skill: Takeshi is a normal human, a non-sorcerer with no jujutsu abilities or resistance to cursed spirits. He and Setsuko were both attacked by curses and nearly killed, but were able to recover from being cursed after going to the hospital.
