Jujutsu Kaisen’s Mini Fan and the Japanese Craft It Honors

Megumi Fushiguro Mini Folding Fan — Official Jujutsu Kaisen Anime Goods from Ensky

The sensu — Japan’s folding fan — has been part of everyday Japanese life for centuries, used as a gift, a performance prop, and a seasonal accessory. This mini folding fan from Ensky brings that traditional format into anime merchandise. The construction stays true to form: multiple wooden ribs held together at the pivot point by a wooden rivet called the kaname, with a printed fan face that folds and unfolds exactly as a conventional sensu would. It functions as an actual fan while serving equally well as a display piece.

The fan face carries a full-color illustration of Megumi Fushiguro set against a background of teal, black, and grey with abstract patterning, alongside the title “Jujutsu Kaisen” in Japanese and the character’s name in English. The pose depicted appears to show his hands forming a ritual hand seal — the gesture he performs when summoning shikigami in the series.

The Series and the Character Behind the Design

Jujutsu Kaisen is a manga by Gege Akutami that began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump (Shueisha) in March 2018. Set in a world where negative human emotion gives rise to cursed spirits, it follows a group of jujutsu sorcerers trained to combat them. The anime adaptation, produced by MAPPA, first aired from October 2020 through March 2021, followed by the theatrical film Jujutsu Kaisen 0 (released in Japan in December 2021) and a second season that covered the Shibuya Incident arc from July through December 2023. The series has reported cumulative manga sales exceeding 100 million volumes worldwide, placing it alongside titles like Demon Slayer and My Hero Academia as one of the defining anime properties of the early 2020s. It is available internationally through platforms including Crunchyroll and Netflix.

Megumi Fushiguro is a first-year student at Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu Technical High School and one of the series’ central figures from its very first pages. His combat technique — the Ten Shadows Technique (Tokusa no Kagebojutsu) — is a rare hereditary ability passed down through the Zenin clan that allows him to call forth shikigami through the medium of shadows. Before each summoning, he forms a specific hand seal, and that gesture has become one of his most widely recognized visual signatures across the franchise’s merchandise and fan culture.

Why the Folding Fan Format Stands Apart

Among the many formats anime merchandise takes — acrylic standees, keychains, trading cards, figures — the mini sensu occupies its own distinct category. It is sold as a single item rather than through blind-box or gacha systems, which means buyers can target a specific character without the element of chance. For international collectors, the format carries an added dimension: it is one of the more distinctly Japan-rooted goods categories, tied to a tradition that long predates anime merchandise by many centuries.

Ensky (Ensky Co., Ltd.) is a Japanese manufacturer of officially licensed character goods with a product range that spans jigsaw puzzles, playing card sets, stationery, and mini folding fans across multiple franchises. This release is part of their ongoing Jujutsu Kaisen licensed goods lineup. The exact release date and product number are not publicly confirmed from available information, though Ensky’s involvement with the series dates to the period of the franchise’s major commercial expansion following the first anime season in late 2020.
