SukuJaku is the non-binary ship between Ryomen Sukuna and Kenjaku from the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom.
Canon[]
Heian Era[]
According to Angel, Sukuna was able to split his soul into twenty cursed objects with Kenjaku's help. However, after seeing it just once, Sukuna learned how to do it himself.
Edo Era[]
Kashimo asks Kenjaku to tell him about the strongest sorcerer he ever met. Kenjaku tells him Sukuna was the undisputable strongest 600 years ago.
Fearsome Womb Arc[]
Kenjaku planted one of Sukuna’s fingers at Eishu Juvenile Detention Center to examine Sukuna’s current strength. He tells the Disaster Curses that, in order to achieve their goals, they need to become allies with Sukuna and render Gojo unable to fight.
Vs. Mahito Arc[]
Kenjaku and Mahito place one of Sukuna's fingers inside Junpei's apartment to force Yuji to make a binding vow with Sukuna and help them convince Sukuna to work with their group.
Kyoto Goodwill Event Arc[]
Kenjaku tells the Disaster Curses that they will have to offer Sukuna all of his fingers if they want him on their side. They plan to steal the remaining fingers fom Jujutsu High and Kenjaku recommends that they avoid killing any students as Sukuna appears to have some interest in one of them and they can only unleash him on October 31st.
Death Painting Arc[]
Kenjaku tells Mahito that the sorcerers cannot destroy special garde cursed objects. He says the sorcerers halt the objects' lifestream but preserve their existence with a constraint that prevent them from doing any further damage. However, Kenjaku says Sukuna is an exception as he is doing damage. He tells Mahito that Sukuna, even after spliting himself in 20 pieces, is still able to attract curses and chose his own vessel.
Shibuya Incident Arc[]
After Gojo is sealed in the Prison realm, Kenjaku and the Disaster Curses talk about their plans for Yuji and Sukuna. Kenjaku joins the battlefield and before leaving, he asks if Sukuna is listening and tells him that the Golden Age of Jujutsu is beginning once again.
Culling Game Arc[]
Kenjaku tells Choso that Yuji's just a vessel for Sukuna and that as long as Yuji coexists with Sukuna, the cycle of curses will never end. When Kenjaku sees Tengen, he laughs and tells them they look like Sukuna.
After reuninting with Sukuna, now in Megumi's body, they talk about the true purpose of the bath and how Sukuna intends to take full control of his vessel. Kenjaku takes Sukuna to Sendai in exchange for his points. Kenjaku asks Kogane to add a rule: when all players with the exception of Suguru Geto and Megumi Fushiguro will be dead, the Culling game will end.
Gojo is freed from the Prison Realm and finds Kenjaku in order to kill him. Sukuna appears and prevents him from killing Kenjaku. Kenjaku stops Sukuna from fighting Gojo and reminds him he still has something he needs to do for Kenjaku before fighting. Gojo thinks they must have a biding vow.
Shinjuku Showdown Arc[]
In the month between Gojo's release and December 24th, Kenjaku stayed close to Sukuna because he wanted Sukuna's protection against Gojo. Later, Kenjaku watches Gojo's death through his phone and comments on the technique Sukuna used to kill him.
Chapter 257[]
It is later revealed that the man Kenjaku had a child with, Jin Itadori, was in fact Sukuna's reincarnated twin brother and Sukuna points out that their souls are the same. This is likely why Sukuna called Kenjaku gross in chapter 214. Sukuna says that Kenjaku wouldn't have a child for no reason and that the child was bred to be a player in the Culling Game but was also born with one of his fingers sealed inside of him, which was necessary for his survival as a vessel.

Fanon[]
SukuJaku is a rarepair as it only has 14 works written under its tag on AO3. It is Kenjaku's sixth most popular pairing behind ships like GoJaku, KenJin and Mommy Kenny. Fans find the relationship interesting because the two have known each other since the Heian era but we still do not know about the real nature of their partnership. The two are the main antagonists of Jujutsu Kaisen and fans are curious to know how their plans play off of each other's and why they chose to be allies.
