MeguMaki is the family ship between Megumi Fushiguro and Maki Zenin from the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom.
Canon[]
Prior to Megumi and Satoru's meeting, Megumi didn't know much about the Zenin Clan, or that he was related to them. He then enrolled into the Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College, where he eventually met Maki. While their meeting wasn't on-screen, it can be said that they got close quickly. Due to Megumi's difficulty with weapons, Maki often trains him. The two initally appear together when Megumi is with Nobara, and the seconds years greet them. Maki says that the mood is so gloomy, it's as if someone died. Panda then tells Maki that someone did die, which Maki gets mad at him for it. Megumi introduces them to Nobara, and says that Yuta is the only one he actually respects, showing that despite the two being related, Megumi does think of her quite lowly.
Later, Megumi asks Maki what she does with her tools when she fights, to which Maki replies that Panda carries them for her, making Megumi tell himself that he shouldn't have asked. At some point, Yuji is brang back to life by Sukuna, and at that same time, Maki proposes to train with Megumi. There, Megumi says that he got mad, all of a sudden, which angers Maki, who thinks he's talking about her. Before the Tokyo Goodwill event, the two are stationed together in the forest, when Megumi asks if the other school plans on killing Itadori. She then replies that it's possible, which makes them forced to go back. He apologizes, before she calls him a moron and tells him not to. When the event starts, the two run into the forest together, and are ambushed by Miwa and Kamo, who go directly into attack. This causes them to separate, and fight their own battles.
When other curses attack, and Kamo, Inumaki and Megumi cross Hanami, who attack them. Maki then takes Miwa's sword and attempts to cut the curse, but with no luck, the blade breaks. Megumi then grabs the "Playful Cloud" and hits Hanami with it. Maki walks over to Megumi, who passes her the tool, and she continues by saying that it doesn't feel right. Hanami is forcefully pushed over to the middle of the forest and into the river, where the two attack him with brute force. They then switch tools and strike him with coordination. Megumi then rants that Maki should never make him use the three-section staff again, as it's hard to use. Maki starts to talk, before she notices that he's hit by the curse bud. Her shoulder is then pierced by the wooden spear. She continues to attack, although Hanami proceeds to choke her. Megumi then struggles to get up, although Maki tells him that it's enough, and then get saved by Todo and Itadori. Panda grabs them and runs away.
During the Shibuya arc, Maki is burned, and she is forced to go under severe treatment, they reunite long after. At some point, Maki tells Megumi that he will become the head of the Zenin Clan, a fact that Megumi doesn't accept. He says that she should instead be the head, although Megumi asks her to do it instead, causing Maki to yell at him and compliment his abilities. She then tells him that if it were her, she'd make more room for Maki, which makes him tell her that he understands.
