Gojo Satoru’s HOLLOW PURPLE in Japanese and meaning

Hi, guys! Did you see Gojo Satoru cast Hollow Purple in Jujutsu Kaisen ep 20? It was insanely cool…

Kanji and meanings of HOLLOW PURPLE

Hollow Purple originally says KYOSHIKI MURASAKI in Japanese. What does it mean? I’ll explain each kanji letter!

KYO

Kyo means “imaginary”, “empty” and “hollow”. This is the kanji character that represents that something is missing and doesn’t exist.

SHIKI

SHIKI is “formula” or “style”.

MURASAKI

MURASAKI is purple in Japanese. This is the kanji character that stands for a plant that is used as a dye for purple color. Here’s the picture of Murasaki. It’s not purple but its root is purple.

Actually, we seldom see this kanji letter. The common character for the color purple is the one below. You’ll notice that the bottom part of Jujutsu Kaisen purple and the top part of common purple are the same!

The reason why the rare version is used is just because it’s cool? But the common version is cool enough.

In Jujutsu Kaisen, Hollow Purple is the secret technique only a handful of people know its existence. To use uncommon kanji may imply how rare the technique is.
