Jujutsu Kaisen, a popular shounen anime, has fans questioning protagonist Yuji Itadori's role due to a heavy focus on side characters. Unlike other series where protagonists typically have cool nicknames, Yuji lacks one, until a fan posted one online: "Eye of the Strom" (misspelled "storm"). Many found this nickname corny and funny, with some suggesting "Demon King" would be more fitting. Fans were confused as to who gave Yuji this nickname, with some pointing out it was Kenjaku due to his role in the manga's events.

Others praised Asta from Black Clover's nickname but were surprised that "Hero of Hell" belonged to Chainsaw Devil, not Denji. The post creator's possible bias towards Jujutsu Kaisen led to the random choice of a nickname for Yuji.
