"At that point I had already lost, I thought I had set aside such petty pride. To be proud of neither myself or others, I chose that path didn't I?"

- Toji's last moments as he remembers his wife.

Toji x Megumi's Mother is the het ship between Toji Fushiguro and Megumi's mother from the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom.

Canon
Toji Fushiguro is a calm and confident non-curse user apart of the Zenin clan. He is very sarcastic and seems to enjoy conversations with others as long as it pertains to himself. He exchanged banter with his enemies and is seen to be very nonchalant. While there is not much known about Megumi's mother and the relationship between Toji and his wife, so much that even her name is unknown, It was shown that Toji deeply cared for his wife and was the only one he genuinely loved. Her death had greatly damaged Toji to the point that it made him very broken. Despite being with countless women and even getting together with Tsumiki's mother and taking her name, Toji never truly loved anyone as much as he loved Megumi's mother.

Whilst fighting Satoru Gojo in chapter 75, Toji has a flashback of his wife and son, Megumi. Megumi's mother looks happy as she holds her son in her arms when he was just a little baby. This memory seems to be very dear to Toji as it appeared during his final moments in Gojo's past arc.

Gege once said during a character poll that Megumi's mother was the person Toji gave himself wholly to.

Children
Toji and his wife have an only son, Megumi. Megumi is a rather quiet, blunt and often a moody Jujutsu Sorcerer who was taken under the care of Gojo Satoru. Satoru took him in when he was just a child along with his step-sister, Tsumiki. Satoru is also Toji's enemy and the person who killed him in the past.

Megumi has met Toji on several occasions both when he was young and old. However Megumi fails to recognize his father as he has been absent from his life for a long time. Megumi also says to Gojo that he doesn't care about where his father is, and later revealed during his fight with Ryoumen Sukuna that Toji had given him the name 'Megumi' (which means 'blessing') without even knowing his gender. As for his mother, he was just a baby when she died.

Fanon
This ship doesn't have the biggest fanbase yet due to Megumi's mother being a mystery. However it is greatly enjoyed and loved in many comics and fanarts including Toji and his wife taking care of Megumi as a little kid. It is also a background and a side-pairing in many fanfiction for ItaFushi or FushiKugi fanfiction. It is largely popular in the Japanese and Korean fandom as it has many fanarts and pieces dedicated to it. Despite not having a proper ship name yet, Toji and his wife are widely appreciated.

A song chosen for the characters is Call Your Name from the Attack On Titan fandom. As many fans think this is a song that suits Toji's feelings about his wife and her death. The ship was later popularized by @_neimana on Twitter who drew fanart of the two cuddling together, and @DDub1618 who draws daily comics and illustrations of them together.

Since Gege has yet to reveal Megumi's Mother's name, there aren't many fan fiction written for the two. However, Gege added that Toji and his wife would be brought up again in the Manga, which gave fan hope that they will eventually see their backstory and how they met. Fans like to headcanon the characters' dynamic as "Brooding Boy and Gentle Girl." many fans interpret Megumi's mother being very happy-go-lucky while Toji is very quiet and mysterious. Fans also like to joke about Gege making a separate Shoujo Manga series for Toji and his wife. A joke that runs in the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom regarding Toji and his wife is the "I can fix him" meme. Since many fans find it hard to believe that Toji could ever truly love anyone because of Gege noting him as someone who freeloads off of women, it was surprising for the fans to see that Megumi's mother managed to make Toji fall in love with her.

A popular trope used in artworks is comparing the couple to Tatsu and Miku from the Manga The Way of The House Husband. Fans like to occasionally mention the couple in fan fiction. On some occasions, Megumi recalls his parents and talks to Yuji and Nobara about it. It is also hinted in many Gojo-centric fanfics, where Toji tells Gojo (before his death) about his Megumi, and mentions his wife and her fate. Gojo later finds Megumi and Tsumiki, he then adopts them and takes care of them, sometimes along with one of his desifnated partners.

It is Toji's fifth most written ship on AO3 and his wife's first. On Pixiv, Toji and his wife currently have almost 80 artworks. However this is not the most accurate number since most artworks featuring the two do not feature their ship tag 伏黒夫婦 which means 'Fushiguro Couple.' Another popular ship name for the two is "Toji's Heart." the "heart" in question is Megumi's mother since she has been the only one to truly been loved by him.

Trivia

 * Gege refers to Toji as "PapaGuro" and Toji's wife as "Megumi Mama"
 * In a character poll for Jujutsu Kaisen, Gege commented "Megumi's biological mother and the person Toji gave himself wholly to" on the poll for Megumi's mother.
 * On Toji's character introduction page in chapter 79, it was stated that he became unstable while with the Zenin family, as it was his source of stress. But he calmed down thanks to Megumi's mother. However, she died shortly after Megumi was born, causing Toji to return to that state.
 * In the translation of Megumi's mother's character poll, the translation "the person Toji gave himself wholly to"「心を許す」only has two meanings: ”to trust” and ”to relax one's guard.”
