~ In her final favor for her twin sister, Maki. |
Mai Zenin is a supporting character in the Jujutsu Kaisen series. She is a second-year student at Kyoto Jujutsu High, a member of the prestigious Zenin clan, and the identical younger twin sister of Maki Zenin.
She was voiced by Marina Inoue in Japanese and Laura Post in English.
Biography[]
Mai Zenin, the younger twin of Maki, was born into the traditionalist Zenin clan, which viewed identical twins as a curse within the world of jujutsu. Her early years were marked by a reliance on her sister due to her fear of cursed spirits. However, as time passed and Maki decided to depart from the clan, Mai's emotions underwent a transformation, leading to feelings of abandonment and growing resentment.
Personality[]
Mai Zenin is a complexity woman, cynical with bittersweet thoughts of her sister. Her life is defined by the shadow of her twin sister, Maki, and the oppressive traditions of the Zenin clan. She reluctantly entered the world of jujutsu, harboring resentment towards Maki for leading them down this path. Mai's abrasive personality and snarky attitude are her defense mechanisms against a life she didn't choose.
Her relationships are complex. While she shows little regard for Maki (which aren't her true feelings), she finds some common ground with her peers, notably Momo Nishimiya and Kasumi Miwa. Mai's association with Aoi Todo is more about projecting an image than genuine affection.
However, the turning point in Mai's life is her selfless sacrifice. Faced with a dire situation, she chose to give everything she had to Maki, including her life, believing it was the only way her sister could fulfill her maximum potential, without the restraint of being twins. This act of sacrifice and her parting wish for Maki to "destroy everything".
