About
Thukuna is a nickname given to a series of photoshopped images of the character Ryomen Sukuna from Jujutsu Kaisen with only one or two teeth in his mouth. The name is derived from how the name "Sukuna" sounds when spoken with a lisp. The image gained viral spread online starting as early as October 2023 and was further popularized throughout early 2024, becoming notably popularized on TikTok in April 2024.
Origin
The origin of the Thukuna tooth edit is unclear. The earliest known meme to use the image is a video posted by TikToker[1] @satorugojodayo on October 7th, 2023, garnering over 15,000 views in six months (shown below). It is unclear if this user created the original Photoshop edit.
