Biography

Panda (Japanese: パンダ, Hepburn: Panda) was metamorphosed cursed corpse that was created and trained by the principal of the Tokyo College, Masamichi Yaga. At one point Masamichi revealed to Panda that he has an older brother and sister, and that he would understand once he was older.

Panda is with Maki and Toge, as they discuss the new transfer student. Later, when Yuta is introduced to the class, Panda notices that Yuta is cursed and prepares to attack. Gojo warns them, but Rika shows up and defends Yuta from the three. After Gojo explains Yuta situation, Gojo introduces Yuta to the three. Panda is then paired with Toge during the classes session. When Yuta has trouble with Maki, Panda stops Maki harassment and apologizes for Maki to Yuta. Months later, Panda is watching Maki and Yuta train when Gojo shows up. Panda talks with Toge and Gojo about Yuta, until he figures something out and tells Maki that she has a chance. This causes Maki to get angry and they start to argue and fight. Gojo has Panda and Maki train some more, while giving Toge and Yuta a mission. After Yuta and Toge's mission is complete, Panda meets with Yuta and informs him about Toge. Days later, Panda is with Toge, Yuta, and Maki when Geto shows up in front of them. Panda wonders why Geto is here, which Geto starts to explains his actions and how on December 24 he will start an all-out war. On December 24, Panda is in Shinjuku preparing for the war. Suddenly, Gojo tells them that Geto is at the college and sent him and Toge to the college by using his powers. After arriving at the college, Panda confronts Geto with Toge but Geto manages to easily defeat them. When Yuta shows up, Panda is rescued with Toge and Maki and was healed. After Yuta had dealt with Geto, Panda checks up on Yuta along with Toge and Maki. Panda then watches as Rika's cursed is undone, which Gojo shows up and informs everyone that Yuta is a distant relative of his. Days later, Panda is waiting for Yuta and Gojo, with Toge and Maki.

Overview

Personality and attributes

In appearance, Panda's form resembled that of the fully-grown giant panda. He stood much taller than his classmates with his bear-shaped frame and sometimes dons clothing. He has been shown to wear armbands, scarves and jackets at times.

Panda was generally a very upbeat and calm individual with his own sense of humor. When he was younger, he spoke in an extremely proper form more akin to a computer but as time passed, Panda has developed his own unique personality. Panda sees humans as strange creatures and did not strive to be like them, while still respecting them as a species.

Powers and abilities

Though resembling a panda, Panda himself was in reality a Cursed Corpse (呪じゅ骸がい Jugai?) created by Masamichi Yaga. As such, he was in fact a non-living object that had been endowed with a curse, allowing him to gain self-control. However, Panda was unique was he was the first case of being an Abrupt-Mutation Cursed Corpse (突とつ然ぜん変へん異い呪じゅ骸がい Totsuzenhen'i Jugai?). As such, he was born completely sentient and possessed three cores. Each of Panda's cores possesses unique traits, allowing him to switch between them and alter his physical shape at will, making him the most complex cursed corpse to exist.

Panda was highly intelligent from a young age due to the circumstances of his creation and his education under Principal Yaga. In a fight, Panda is highly analytical and tries to stay one step ahead of his opponent. Even Suguru Geto, a sorcerer with immense tactical reasoning, was surprised by Panda's cleverness in battle. Against Mechamaru, Panda consistently thought about every move before he made it. He was able to calculate the angle of Mechamaru's cannon so it wouldn't also hit his allies. In that same battle, Panda fooled Mechamaru multiple times by faking an injury to his cores and won because his opponent underestimated his intelligence.

Panda is a semi-grade 2 sorcerer and an Abrupt-Mutation cursed corpse, the most advanced of his kind. With a natural affinity for jujutsu, Panda is capable of exorcising curses based solely on his physical abilities. He is highly intelligent and able to think one step ahead of his opponents in a fight. Panda's physiology also provides a unique challenge in battle. The only way to take him down is by destroying the cores of cursed energy that act as his heart. Additionally his body is extremely durable and can be reinforced using jujutsu protection.

Due to the size and sturdiness of his body, Panda was naturally very physically strong. He can exorcise curses with simple blows, effortlessly carry allies on his back, and run clean through walls as a few examples of his base strength.

Panda has also proven to be a very powerful puncher, able to stun Aoi, an exceptionally durable fighter, with a right hook as well as batter Mechamaru, a metal cursed corpse, with straight punches. Panda's physiology as a cursed corpse allows him to absorb high amounts of damage. He was able to easily brush off Mechamaru's Ultra Cannon and even took the brunt of his opponent's strongest ability and survived.
