It's been turbulent four years for the Itadori brothers. After the unexpected death of their parents, Sukuna stopped going to school, working two part-time and several odd jobs to finance their small apartment, groceries, and necessities.

Thanks to his big brother's support, Yuji can fully concentrate on his studies. Although he misses their parents greatly, normalcy has returned. Yuji doesn't think about them twenty-four seven anymore, prospering as a teen with friends and hobbies like any other.

Sukuna, on the other hand... He solely lives for his younger brother. All he does is work, smoke, and occasionally get in a fight, depending on the job he's doing. It leaves him barely any time to confront his feelings, not that he'd ever admit needing to, in the first place.
