Overview[1]
Puppet Master is a playable character in Jujutsu Shenanigans — 85, 117 in Awakening.
Puppet Master is the 8th Early Access and 15th character that was added to Jujutsu Shenanigans. Puppet Master is based off of Kokichi Muta, a character from Jujutsu Kaisen. To read about their backstory, expand the collapsible below. (SPOILERS FOR JUJUTSU KAISEN ANIME) Kokichi Muta is a supporting character from Jujutsu Kaisen and a semi-grade 1 sorcerer who was born with a heavenly restriction that left him with a very fragile body, sensitive to even sunlight. In exchange for this disability, Kokichi's restriction was able to exceed the natural limits of cursed energy output, which worked in tandem with his "Puppet Manipulation" technique, enabling him to operate innumerable cursed corpses as his proxies across Tokyo, thus the title: "Puppet Master".

Tips & Misc
Take note that all Offload variants cannot get you punished if countered or blocked. The cursed corpses will instead be the ones taking the hit. This is useful if the opponent possesses a precious counter such as Foresight or Head Splitter, and means that you can go in with no fear. If you have 15 Offload puppets charging up Ultra Cannons in one spot, all of their blasts can deal enough combined damage to kill someone in an instant. In other words, you can execute someone with an Ultra Cannon firing squad if you have enough preparation time. Note that Ultra Cannon's puppets will automatically shoot if you die. When Mode Absolute ends, the player's Max HP gets set to 100 rather than 85, likely due to a bug as this does not happen when dying while awakened. Pigeon Viola's tracking is flawed as its bullets take a long path to get to the target, and may collide with debris that will cause them to disappear. It's best to use Technique Charge as it has better accuracy when fully locked on. Technique Charge's Simple Domain isn't able to shatter all domain expansion borders, as Deadly Sentencing's invulnerability prohibits the blast from landing, while Incomplete Shrine has no border to shatter. Blocking during Puppet Barrage will not make you fly into the air, instead you will stay on the ground as the puppets grab the opponent Ultra Spin's ragdoll time allows for an easy downslam while they're floored, but be aware of the target's ragdoll cancel.

Trivia
While the character is called Puppet Master, the character is actually the puppet itself (Mechamaru). The player plays as the puppet, and during Absolute the puppet pilots Ultimate Mechamaru, coming out after the mech is defeated or the timer runs out. This is a reference to Kokichi Muta piloting Ultimate Mechamaru from the inside right at the end of his fight with Mahito. Offload's cursed corpses will use the Awakening avatar selected from the Awakening Outfits gamepass, as Absolute will always use the same mech avatar. Not equipping an Awakening outfit instead uses the avatar you currently have equipped in-game. The art during Unlicensed Rhythm Game's "Pass On" shows taking the place of Ishmael from Limbus Company, next to yawning in the front seat. Mahito called Mechamaru in the anime, which could be the inspiration for this name.
