Cast and Characters

Junya Enoki headshot
Junya Enoki
as Yuji Itadori (voice)
Enoki has played Itadori as the franchise's emotional ground wire since 2020, and Execution gives him his hardest material to date: a vessel forced to account, in his own voice, for damage another consciousness has done with his hands. The performance's quieter notes — the hospital-room scenes, the long pause before he names the civilian count — are what stabilise the film's broader tonal whiplash between horror and shōnen-action register.
Megumi Ogata headshot
Megumi Ogata
as Yuta Okkotsu (voice)
Ogata, the franchise's adult-male tenor of choice across decades of anime (Shinji in Evangelion, Kurama in Yu Yu Hakusho), is unusually cast against type here as a boy roughly the same age as Itadori but visibly more burnt by the institution. Her Yuta arrives in Execution with an executioner's calm that the film treats as a posture rather than a fact, and the read on the character changes depending on which line of dialogue she emphasises.
Koji Yusa headshot
Koji Yusa
as Naoya Zen'in (voice)
Yusa plays Naoya as the Zen'in clan's worst-case advertisement: a young head-in-waiting whose entire personality is a refusal to admit that the family politics around him are about to consume him. The performance leans on a sneering tenor — closer to his Aizen than his other recent roles — and gives the Zen'in scenes their tonal anchor while the rest of the film is collapsing buildings.
Daisuke Namikawa headshot
Daisuke Namikawa
as Choso (voice)
Namikawa's Choso enters Execution as the film's most narratively complicated antagonist — a Cursed Womb who believes Itadori killed his brothers and only learns mid-fight that the boy in front of him is, by his own cursed-blood arithmetic, a younger brother. The vocal performance has to flip the character's emotional axis inside a single scene, and Namikawa's restraint in the recognition moment is one of the cut's best pieces of voice acting.
Yuma Uchida headshot
Yuma Uchida
as Megumi Fushiguro (voice)
Uchida's Megumi is the film's quietest performance, and the one Execution leans hardest on for emotional continuity. With Gojo sealed and Itadori in pieces, Megumi is the cohort's remaining tactical brain, and Uchida lets the weight of that show up in the way the character pauses before deploying each Shikigami — every summoning sounding, in this cut, like a decision rather than a reflex.
Asami Seto headshot
Asami Seto
as Nobara Kugisaki (voice)
Seto's Nobara is given the cut's most devastating set-piece. The performance keeps the character's caustic confidence intact almost to the final frame, which is what makes the final scene land — a young woman who has spent the series refusing to be victimised by her cohort's metaphysics suddenly inside the exact metaphysics, and refusing, on principle, to sound afraid of them.
