Shoko Ieiri (家入 硝子, Ieiri Shōko) adalah salah satu karakter pendukung paling penting dalam Jujutsu Kaisen, although it is often “ hidden” behind the spotlight of Gojo and Geto. He is the main doctor of Tokyo Jujutsu High, a classmate of Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru, as well as one of the few jujutsu magicians capable of using Reverse Cursed Technique to heal others.
Here are the latest and most complete biography (based on the manga until the end of the story as well as anime/movie related updates until 2026), complete with many interesting facts and details that few people know:
Childhood and background
- Date of birth - November 7, 1989 (Scorpio).
- Pada tahun 2005, Shoko masuk Tokyo Jujutsu High sebagai siswa tahun pertama bersama Gojo Satoru dan Geto Suguru. The Three formed the iconic trio of their era (much like Yuji-Megumi-Nobara in today's generation).
- Shoko has already shown amazing talent since school times: she is more adept at using reverse cursed technique daripada cursed technique biasa — sesuatu yang sangat langka di dunia jujutsu.
Unique abilities and positions
- Shoko is one of only two people who is known to be able to heal others with reverse cursed energy (the other is Yuta Okkotsu). Even Gojo himself could not heal anyone other than himself.
- He has no cursed technique Special (such as domain expansion or offensive techniques). His Reverse cursed technique was a pure natural talent, not a derivative technique.
- She can regenerate lost limbs and heal severe injuries, making her an irreplaceable asset — without Shoko, many witches would have died long ago.
- Little-known fact: Shoko is a person who membedah transfigured humans (Mahito's transformed humans) and discover that they are not cursed spirits, but humans transformed by Idle Transfiguration. This discovery was crucial to understanding Mahito's technique.
- He was also the first to conclude that the punishment “revocation of cursed technique” in Culling Games would affect the brain and lead to the player's death.
Role in the main story
- Hidden Inventory Arc (2006)-Shoko is often the cover of the Gojo-Geto-Shoko trio's casual chat. He's the one who explains (albeit hard) how the reverse cursed technique works, but Gojo and Geto can't replicate it.
- Shibuya Incident (2018) - he set up a healing post in the Shibuya Expressway, healing Takuma ino, Ijichi, and many others. Yaga protects him personally because Shoko's value is too high.
- After Gojo's death, Shoko holds his body and performs an autopsy/analysis. At the end of the story (chapters 269-271), he hands over Gojo's will to Megumi and Nobara (Yuji cannot get a letter due to private talks).
- In the manga's epilogue, Shoko remains the doctor of Jujutsu High, helping a new generation of post-war majors.
Interesting Facts & Little-Known Details
- Shoko is the heaviest drinkers of alcohol throughout the Jujutsu Kaisen series. His hobby is drinking alcohol, his favorite food is alcohol itself, and his most hated food is sweets.
- Dia heavy smokers during school, but stopped completely in 2013 (it was 5 years before the main story began). In Shibuya, he started smoking again out of nostalgia for school days — Yaga immediately protested.
- He cheated to obtain a doctor's license. Two years after graduating from high school (around 2010-2011), Shoko passed the national medical examination, but she falsifying test qualification documents due to his age and background does not meet the official requirements. The test itself is honest, but the admission process is fraudulent.
- Shoko is politically neutral — she doesn't get too close to the big clans or upper echelons like Gojo, nor does she join the Geto as a curse user. He considers Geto's decision to be a criminal as “stupid”.
- The biggest stress is night shift - very relatable to the doctor profession.
- In the anime, her hair color is brown and brown eyes, but in the manga black and green eyes (the classic design of Gege Akutami).
- Japanese Voice: Aya Endō. English voice: Ryan Bartley (in recent films and seasons).
- The mobile game Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade, ada event khusus “Shoko Ieiri’s Longest Day” (2025) dan karakter SSR-nya dari era Jujutsu High.
Shoko Ieiri is an example of a character “ low-key overpowered” — she does not fight, but without her, almost all the main people are dead many times. He is relaxed, indifferent, but very competent and loyal to his friends. An underrated but crucial character!
