Who Is Larue in Jujutsu Kaisen?
Larue is featured in both the Jujutsu Kaisen series and its prequel, Jujutsu Kaisen 0. He is a curse user who was one of Suguru Geto's followers.
He is depicted as someone with an imposing figure. His muscular frame is accentuated by his light-colored eyes and mid-length blonde hair secured by a blue headband.
Larue has two large hearts adorning his chest. He opts for minimalist attire, donning only loose pants, preferring the freedom of being shirtless and barefoot.
Is Larue Good or Evil?
Little is known about Larue's personality except for his alignment with Geto’s ideology. As such, he views all members of their group as family.
Larue followed Geto because he wanted to see him achieve his goals. So, in a way, he is neither good nor evil and falls in the grey area.
In the series, Larue appeared in the Cursed Child arc and the Shibuya Incident arc. In the Cursed Child arc, Larue is shown as a supporting antagonist.
He is seen taking part in an infiltration mission into Jujutsu High with Geto, Mimiko, and Nanako. At a certain point, he allies with Yuki Tsukumo.
Meanwhile, in the Shibuya Incident arc, Larue seizes the moment to rescue Mai Zenin, Aoi Todo, and Kasumi Miwa as Yuki confronts Kenjaku.

How Strong Is Larue in Jujutsu Kaisen?
Larue uses a cursed technique called Heart Catch. This cursed technique allows him to grab his subject using an imaginary hand.
If the imaginary hand is destroyed during an attack, it can restore itself. However, if it is destroyed, one-tenth of the damage will be redirected at Larue.
In the ongoing Shinjuku Showdown arc, Larue is reportedly joining the battle alongside Miguel to face Sukuna.
Based on the spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 255, Larue is set to use the Heart Catch technique to hold Sukuna and slam him against a wall.
However, Sukuna remains unmoved by Larue's cursed technique, deeming it subpar.
