Over on X (Twitter), the actor behind Haruto took time to address their character’s part in the thirst trap. The whole thing began when Jujutsu Kaisen season two released its latest episode. It was there fans reunited with Nanami, and the buff sorcerer wiped the floor with foes. The throwdown saw Nanami fight dirty against Haruta in the heart of Shibuya, and actor Chris Hackney is ready to take part in the beating.

“I just want to remind everyone that I’m the English voice of Haruta in Jujutsu Kaisen so… Do with that what you will,” Hackney shared on social media after sharing a meme about Nanami’s thirst trap. When asked by a fan who they thought they were to Nanami, well โ€“ the English actor had this to say:

“The envy of the Internet, apparently.”

Obviously, Hackney has his thumb on the pulse of social media. Nanami has quickly become this year’s biggest anime hunk, and fans are obsessed. Haruta only helped bring this truth to light as the enemy sorcerer gave Nanami an outlet to let loose. So of course, we can only imagine what Nanami’s dub actor David Vincent has in store for this scene…!
