Noritoshi Kamo (Ancestor)

Noritoshi Kamo is a character in the Jujutsu Kaisen series. He lived over a hundred and fifty years ago when he seemingly conducted research resulting in the Cursed Womb: Death Paintings. Noritoshi Kamo is regarded as the evilest jujutsu sorcerer in history and a stain on the Kamo Family.

Kenjaku revealed that he inhabited Noritoshi Kamo's body with his cursed technique, allowing him to swap out the former's brain for his own.

Appearance
Noritoshi, in his original body, was seen to be an older-looking man with short dark hair, worn slicked back, and a small mustache. He had narrow eyes and had a straight, stitched scar running horizontally through his forehead. He wore what appears to be a dark yukata and sported an umbrella.

Personality
While possessed by Kenjaku, Noritoshi gained a reputation as a cruel man considered both a blot on the Kamo Family and the evilest jujutsu sorcerer to ever live. His experiments during the Meiji Era were so vile all records were destroyed and even the curses that resulted from them, despite having no hatred for humanity, despised him.

History
Noritoshi was a sorcerer who would be known as the most infamous sorcerer in history. In the Meiji Era, Noritoshi ran a temple, where the woman who was capable of giving birth to human-spirit hybrids had ran off to. During her time there, it was recorded in history that Noritoshi Kamo had apparently taken the woman as his prisoner for his intellectual curiosity, with him having performed numerous experiments with her that resulted in her having nine pregnancies and nine abortions that lead to the creation of the nine Cursed Womb: Death Paintings.

As stated by Choso, Noritoshi had apparently mixed in his own blood with some of the cursed wombs, resulting in him inheriting the Kamo family's inherited innate technique: Blood Manipulation.

Abilities and Powers
Noritoshi's abilities are currently unknown.

High Intellect: Noritoshi, as Kenjaku, had a great interest in human-spirit hybrids, and conducted many cruel experiments on his prisoner.

Trivia

 * Noritoshi Kamo's name is pronounced the same way as his descendent, Noritoshi Kamo, but they are written differently.
 * It’s possible that Noritoshi Kamo had also inherited the Blood Manipulation Technique given that the Death Paintings had all inherited it and variations of the technique.
