During intense battles, Satoru is seen to occasionally fall into a frenzied fighting
state, urged by his determination for victory and undeniable proof that he alone is the
strongest. His combative style is characterized by his aggressive and domineering
attacks, while flaunting his mastered techniques to his opponents. Furthermore, in a
crisis, he is capable of being cold-blooded. He will prioritize his enemies' destruction
over saving innocent people when he believes that the sacrifice is unavoidable.
However, this only extends to the people killed by his opponent; he will not do any
lasting harm to or kill anyone innocent to gain the upper hand.
Nevertheless, despite his haughtiness and strength, Satoru is more human than he
first appears. After defeating Toji, Satoru retrieved Riko's corpse with a sorrowful
look, showing that albeit his recent conceited victory temporarily clouding his
feelings, he still felt some grief over her death. He sought to kill the Star Religious
members that were laughing over Riko's death, though was stopped by Suguru
Geto -- who he relied on as a moral compass at that time -- before taking any action.
Furthermore, Satoru was later left visibly horrified and panicked after learning that
Suguru, his one and only best friend, had become a murderous curse user. Satoru
attempted to reason with his friend, but eventually realized and accepted that he lost
the one person he truly saw as an equal. After having to put an end to Suguru before
more calamity arose, it was Satoru's trauma over losing his best friend that caused
his ultimate downfall in Shibuya. He was also distraught when Yuji seemingly died.
Satoru's endgame is to reform the jujutsu world from the bottom-up through
education. He seeks to foster a new generation of sorcerers that he hopes will one
day become his equals.
