Who is Burn Scars Based On? (Lore)
Burn Scars is based on Maki Zenin from Jujutsu Kaisen. After the devastating Zenin Clan massacre, Maki suffered severe burns across her body but emerged with power comparable to Toji Fushiguro - achieving a state of "zero cursed energy" that grants superhuman physical abilities.
The V2 awakening represents Maki's full transformation after her near-death experience. Her burn scars are not just cosmetic - they symbolize her complete severance from cursed energy and her ascension to peak physical prowess.
In Jujutsu Infinite, Burn Scars V2 captures this power fantasy with mechanics that reward aggressive, skilled play while maintaining high HP - just like Maki's fighting style in the manga.
