With the conclusion of the Jujutsu Kaisen anime and the definitive confirmation of the fate of the main characters, fans are eagerly awaiting details about Gojo’s ultimate destiny. The disappearance of major figures like Sukuna and Kenjaku has radically disrupted the balance, plunging the Jujutsu community into a phase of uncertainty but also hope. Gojo’s dream — to durably transform this complex world — remains central to his arc, and even after his death, his legacy continues to inspire his disciples to pursue his sacred mission.
Updated on February 27, 2024 by Ajay Aravind: Gojo has established himself as one of the most beloved anime characters, thanks to his unique mix of powerful charisma and quirky humor. His popularity also relies on his deep desire to correct past mistakes to ensure a better future for those he protects. This article has been carefully updated to reflect recent revelations about the outcome of his actions and his decisive role in the storyline.
Satoru Gojo, a millennial legacy in service of an ideal
The exceptional sorcerer aiming to shape a different world
Born into the prestigious Gojo clan, Satoru inherited at birth a combination as rare as it is exceptional: mastery of the Infinity and the legendary Six Eyes technique. The Infinity grants him unparalleled control over space and the perception of reality, while the Six Eyes isolate and precisely regulate his occult energy. His ocean-blue eyes testify to phenomenal potential, visible from their opening. Beyond these powers, Gojo possesses an impressive range of skills making him nearly invincible.
During the first season, he humiliates powerful foes such as Jogo and a Sukuna still far from his peak. The cursed Special Grade forces hardly have a grip on him, nor threats capable of destabilizing him. His extreme power forces enemies to devise special strategies to neutralize him. Meanwhile, Gojo firmly opposes the rigid traditions of Jujutsu, aspiring to enable young sorcerers to surpass these limitations. His overwhelming aura grants him a dominant position both against enemies and authorities.
The Hidden Inventory arc: Gojo’s maturation
Mentorship, a new essential role
Season 2 reveals a more intimate side of Gojo, when he was still a student at the Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College, before fully taking on his role as the most powerful sorcerer. This flashback exposes a sometimes immature Gojo, marked by his friendship and falling out with Suguru Geto, who became an antagonist. The arc also features an intense battle against Toji Fushiguro, during which Gojo suffers his first defeat and nearly dies.
"In all the sky and on earth, I alone am honored" — Satoru Gojo
This turning point is crucial: Gojo gains full mastery of cursed energy, his vision with Six Eyes lets him exploit his Infinity to its maximum, unleashing the fearsome Purple Hollow Technique, an attack of devastating power. This near-absolute invincibility also forces isolation, as his power surpasses that of his peers. The trials related to the loss of Riko Amanai and Geto’s betrayal deeply transform him into a vigilant mentor.
As a watchful mentor, Gojo takes marginalized students under his wing, determined to build a different future. Thanks to him, Yuta and Yuji survive trials, while Megumi escapes a tragic fate. These three students embody hope for a renewed Jujutsu, following their master's values and teachings.
Gojo: between passionate warrior and devoted teacher
A fighter hungry for challenges
Attached as much to combat as to education, Gojo finds obvious pleasure in facing sorcerers with real talent. Gege Akutami, the author, confirmed that Gojo flourishes fully in the presence of worthy opponents. His unique personality blends joyful arrogance and assumed pride, giving him a fascinating complexity, sometimes accompanied by deep loneliness.
After his harsh defeat against Toji, Gojo faces suspicion from authorities who fear him as a potential threat. Like many heroes with immense power, he aspires to find a true rival capable of pushing him to his limits. His meeting with Yuji, possessed by Sukuna, foreshadows a legendary duel between the masters of Jujutsu.
Gojo’s stay in the Prison Realm: heavy consequences
An imprisonment that changed the game
A major obstacle for both heroes and villains, Gojo is trapped by the powerful cursed object "Prison Realm," used by Kenjaku to lock Gojo in a parallel dimension. His 19-day absence at the front allowed the assassination of chief Masamichi Yaga, near-execution of Yuji Itadori, and many other losses during the Death Game. His presence would likely have prevented this tragedy and preserved the balance of the cursed world.
Gojo vs Sukuna: an epic showdown
A battle that shook the city
During the Culling Game arc, Sukuna, almost fully resurrected, confronts Gojo directly in a long-awaited duel. The fight begins with the Purple Hollow Technique, where Gojo designates Sukuna as his ultimate rival. Despite the colossal power of Gojo’s domain expansion, Sukuna uses Mahoraga, Megumi’s ultimate technique, to launch an attack capable of penetrating the Infinity. This "Cutting Fracture" disrupts Gojo, causing a dramatic death in the anime.
Gojo, a defeat accepted with humility
In the afterlife, Gojo joins the souls he once kept at bay with his overwhelming power. His former companions honor his courage and determination. Having finally found his equal, Gojo declares he leaves without regret, satisfied to have fought the battle of his life. This disappearance divided the fanbase, some lamenting his departure, others criticizing the harsh handling. Many now question the heroes' ability to surpass Sukuna without their strongest ally.
Gojo's spirit endures: posthumous influences and legacy
Yuta Okkotsu and the trial of Limitless Void and Six Eyes
For a long time, fans hoped for Gojo’s possible return. Yuta Okkotsu, by replicating Kenjaku’s graft, implants his brain into Gojo’s body to use his powers. For a brief period, Yuta activates the Limitless Void and other high-level techniques. However, after five minutes, the body collapses, demonstrating Gojo’s power uniqueness. This episode echoes the philosophical question posed by Geto: "Are you the strongest because you are Gojo, or are you Gojo because you are the strongest?"
Gojo's living legacy and the rebirth of Jujutsu
Gojo's dreams and values entrusted to his disciples
At the end of the Jujutsu Kaisen story, Gojo’s definitive death is established, accepted serenely by the character himself. Confident in his students and their ability to pursue his vision, Gojo shows ultimate wisdom. Chapter 271 shows Yuji saving Megumi and defeating Sukuna, thus realizing Gojo’s legacy. The final scene is a touching flashback where Gojo urges Yuji to develop a style of strength different from his own, one carrying forgiveness, mercy, and humanity, fundamental values for the future of Jujutsu.
