Discussions about Gege Akutami commonly turn humorous when asked about his looks, due to the author's well-known aversion to publicity. Seldom to appear publicly, Gege Akutami has become somewhat of a mystery in the manga world. So, when you ask what he looks like? In truth, it’s a classic case of the man behind the Curtain - we know the work, but not the creator.

Gege Akutami's appearance is pretty much a secret. He prefers to maintain a low profile in the public eye, which is quite common among manga creators.

To dive into the mystery of Gege Akutami's appearance, one would likely come up short. Maintaining a hidden identity seems fitting given he's the creative genius behind dark fantasy 'Jujutsu Kaisen'. His appearance? Mostly a question mark, hidden behind a pen name and a love for creating breathtaking manga.

I especially love Gege Akutami's creative universe, which teems with distinctive characters. However, from Akutami's point of view I don't know which character has a special place in his heart: 'Panda' is a figure he often cites from 'Jujutsu Kaisen for instance. Panda, a cursed corpse with three artificial cores, always brings a great punch to the battle ring. Yet what truly wins my heart is his adorable humor combined with sharp wit which offers an offset to grim and intense scenes that becomes much-appreciated in time.
I've noticed some discussions about this online, and honestly, I don't think there's any real evidence for it. It feels like a weird fan theory that got legs because his art style uses a very specific, often muted or unconventional color palette for official volume covers and promo art, especially for 'Jujutsu Kaisen'. That's more likely a deliberate stylistic choice to create a certain gritty, somber mood rather than a vision issue. Artists and their editors make very conscious color decisions.
If you look at the actual manga, which is black and white, the 'clues' people cite evaporate. The occasional color spreads in magazines might have odd tones, but that's super common in manga—artists frequently use wild, non-naturalistic colors for dramatic effect or just because they like the combo. Attributing it to color blindness feels like reaching for a narrative where there isn't one, and it's a bit reductive to an artist's intent.
I've seen this rumor float around too, but I don't think there's any actual confirmation from Gege themselves or any official source. It seems to stem entirely from fan speculation over the incredibly distinctive and specific color palettes used in 'Jujutsu Kaisen', especially for cursed energy and domain expansions. The vibrancy is so deliberate and symbolic—the blues and purples of Sukuna's slashes, the stark contrast in Gojo's Hollow Purple—it feels like an artist with a very firm, intentional vision for color, not someone working around a limitation.
That said, some of the manga's early volume covers and certain promotional art do have a more muted, almost monochrome feel in places, which might have sparked the theory. But I'd chalk that up more to artistic style shifts and the grueling schedule of a weekly manga author than anything else. Honestly, the way color is deployed in the anime and official colored art is so integral to the power system's logic that if there is any color blindness, it hasn't hindered the creation of a very color-coded world at all.
Rumors about Gege Akutami being color blind pop up online sometimes, and honestly, the origin seems pretty murky. I've never come across an interview where he directly addresses it. Most references I see are from fan forums speculating, often pointing to the vibrant but sometimes unusual color palettes in official art or the anime. I think it's one of those internet myths that gets repeated until it feels true.
What's more interesting to me is how color is used in 'Jujutsu Kaisen' thematically, regardless of the creator's personal perception. The contrast between Sukuna's domain and Gojo's limitless void, for instance, uses color to signal completely different types of overwhelming power. That feels like a deliberate artistic choice, not a limitation.
