Satoru Gojo

Satoru Gojo is a fictional character and one of the central figures in the manga and anime series Jujutsu Kaisen, created by Gege Akutami, which was serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump by Shueisha from March 2018 to September 2024.^[1]^[2] As a special grade jujutsu sorcerer and teacher at Tokyo Jujutsu High School, he is renowned as the strongest sorcerer in the modern era, possessing extraordinary inherited abilities that allow him to manipulate space and cursed energy with unmatched precision.^[3] Born on December 7 into the prestigious Gojo clan—one of the three great sorcerer families descending from the Heian-era figure Sugawara no Michizane—Gojo's arrival marked a seismic shift in the jujutsu world's power dynamics, as he is the first in four hundred years to inherit both the clan's signature Limitless cursed technique and the rare Six Eyes. These innate gifts enable him to create an infinite barrier of space (Infinity), perceive cursed energy flows in exhaustive detail, and deploy devastating techniques such as Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue for attraction, Cursed Technique Reversal: Red for repulsion, and the imaginary mass Hollow Technique: Purple for destruction, culminating in his domain expansion Unlimited Void, which overwhelms opponents with infinite information. Standing over 190 cm tall and often seen wearing a distinctive black blindfold or sunglasses to manage the sensory overload from his Six Eyes, Gojo's physical presence and abilities make him a near-invincible force against curses and rival sorcerers.^[3]^[4] Despite his overwhelming power and playful, cocky personality—marked by a love for sweets, teasing banter, and an unyielding confidence—Gojo harbors a profound sense of responsibility toward the next generation of sorcerers, mentoring students like Yuji Itadori, Megumi Fushiguro, and Nobara Kugisaki while challenging the jujutsu society's outdated hierarchies and conservatism. Voiced by Yuichi Nakamura in the anime adaptation produced by MAPPA, Gojo has become an iconic figure in the series, symbolizing both unparalleled strength and a catalyst for change in a world plagued by malevolent curses born from negative human emotions. His character arc explores themes of isolation due to his superiority, the burdens of genius, and the pursuit of a freer future for jujutsu practitioners.^[3]^[5]

Background and characteristics

Physical appearance

Satoru Gojo is portrayed as an exceptionally tall figure, standing over 190 cm (approximately 6 feet 3 inches) in height, with a lean yet muscular build that emphasizes his athletic prowess and youthful vitality.^[3]^[6] His facial features are sharp and attractive, highlighted by short, spiky white hair that stands out prominently, a characteristic inherited from the Gojo clan and present from his youth.^[3]^[7] Gojo's most iconic trait is his pair of vivid, light blue eyes—known as the Six Eyes—which possess an otherworldly glow and are almost always concealed behind a black blindfold or dark sunglasses to mitigate the constant influx of cursed energy data they perceive.^[3]^[8] Occasionally, depictions show him removing the blindfold during intense moments, revealing the piercing, luminous blue irises that underscore his unparalleled perception.^[3] In terms of attire, Gojo favors a sleek, modern ensemble consisting of a high-collared black zip-up jacket worn over a white dress shirt, paired with slim-fit black pants and polished dark boots, reflecting his casual yet authoritative demeanor as a sorcerer.^[9]^[10] Variations occur during formal missions, where he dons more traditional Jujutsu High sorcerer uniforms, including dark jackets with insignia. Across the series, Gojo's appearance evolves notably in flashbacks to his student days at Tokyo Jujutsu High, where he sports white bandages wrapped around his eyes instead of a blindfold, along with the standard black uniform gakuran.^[11]^[8] Following pivotal events like the Hidden Inventory Incident, which left him with injuries requiring recovery, his style shifts to the signature blindfold and looser civilian clothing, marking his growth into the confident teacher seen in the main storyline.^[11] In later arcs, such as after the Shibuya Incident, while his core look remains consistent, subtle adaptations like opting for sunglasses over the blindfold appear in non-combat settings, adapting to different contexts without major alterations.^[6]

Personality and traits

Satoru Gojo exhibits a confident and playful demeanor, frequently engaging in teasing banter with his students and peers, which masks his profound dedication to safeguarding young jujutsu sorcerers and challenging the rigid structures of jujutsu society. This lighthearted facade stems from his intrinsic personality, identified by creator Gege Akutami as both his greatest strength and primary weakness, allowing him to maintain composure amid overwhelming power while occasionally leading to underestimations of threats. Akutami notes that Gojo derives genuine happiness from encountering talented sorcerers, reflecting his commitment to nurturing the next generation rather than dominating as the unchallenged strongest.^[12] Born into the prestigious Gojo clan in Kyoto, Gojo endured a sheltered and isolating upbringing as the clan's heir, marked by special treatment that distanced him from relatives and limited normal social interactions, fostering a philosophy of minimal interference in others' lives unless intervention proves essential. His parents, non-sorcerers who rose in status through his birth, separated from him early, leaving him as an only child who escaped the clan's overbearing oversight by enrolling at Tokyo Jujutsu High upon awakening his abilities. This background of isolation and self-reliance shaped his independent streak, with basic training handled within the clan but advanced techniques self-taught from family records, reinforcing his unyielding confidence unmarred by personal complexes—save for the lingering regret over failing to prevent his close friend Suguru Geto's defection.^[12]^[13] Gojo's key relationships underscore his evolution from aloof guardian to emotionally invested mentor, particularly in guiding Yuji Itadori, Megumi Fushiguro, and Nobara Kugisaki at Jujutsu High, where he imparts not just techniques but a vision for societal reform. His bond with Geto, once a deep friendship forged in youth, soured into rivalry following Geto's turn to villainy, profoundly influencing Gojo's protective instincts and sense of responsibility toward students. This shift intensified after Geto's defection, transforming Gojo into a more proactive figure in countering antagonists like Ryomen Sukuna, though his overconfidence—rooted in his unparalleled strength—has resulted in strategic oversights, such as during the Shibuya Incident where coordinated enemy tactics exploited his enjoyment of combat. Despite these flaws, Gojo's traits drive his unyielding pursuit of a balanced jujutsu world, blending humor with resolute action.^[12]

Abilities and techniques

Satoru Gojo possesses the rare Six Eyes, an innate ocular ability unique to the Gojo clan that grants him exceptional perception of cursed energy at an atomic level. This trait allows for precise analysis and manipulation of cursed energy flows, enabling near-perfect efficiency in technique usage and effectively providing him with inexhaustible reserves by minimizing depletion. The Six Eyes function like advanced sensory organs, processing overwhelming amounts of information to predict and counter opponents' moves, though prolonged use can lead to fatigue, prompting Gojo to often cover his eyes despite their functionality even when obscured.^[14]^[15]^[16] His core inherited technique, Limitless, manipulates space on an atomic scale through cursed energy, drawing from mathematical concepts of infinity. The neutral form, known as Infinity, creates an automatic barrier that slows approaching objects infinitely, dividing the distance between them and Gojo endlessly to render him untouchable, akin to the Achilles and the tortoise paradox. Offensive extensions include Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue, which generates negative space to attract and implode matter with destructive force; Cursed Technique Reversal: Red, a repulsive blast using positive cursed energy to hurl targets away with explosive power at least twice that of Blue; and Hollow Purple, a fusion of Blue and Red that produces an imaginary mass capable of erasing anything in its path through spatial distortion. These applications require immense cursed energy control, amplified by the Six Eyes.^[14]^[15]^[16] Gojo's Domain Expansion, Unlimited Void, manifests as an open-air domain that envelops targets in a void of infinite information and stimuli, overwhelming their senses in approximately 0.2 seconds to induce total paralysis without inflicting physical damage. This technique floods the brain with endless data, rendering victims unable to act while allowing Gojo to maintain control, with adjustable barrier conditions to exclude allies if they remain sufficiently close. It exemplifies his mastery over spatial and perceptual manipulation, bypassing traditional domain lethality for psychological incapacitation.^[14]^[15] Complementing his techniques, Gojo employs Reverse Cursed Technique to convert negative cursed energy into positive energy for self-healing, regenerating from severe injuries such as brain damage and even restoring depleted techniques. This ability underscores his resilience, enabling survival in scenarios that would fell other sorcerers. In close-quarters combat, he demonstrates superhuman speed, strength, and reflexes, infusing cursed energy into hand-to-hand strikes and seamlessly integrating Limitless for enhanced maneuvers like spatial teleportation or amplified impacts.^[14]^[15] Despite his prowess, Gojo's abilities have vulnerabilities, including temporary sealing through specialized artifacts like the Prison Realm, which can neutralize his techniques by isolating him in a timeless void. Additionally, his powers can be countered by inverted techniques or clashing domains that disrupt spatial control, and overuse of the Six Eyes or Hollow Purple risks self-harm or exhaustion.^[14]^[15]

Role in the series

Jujutsu Kaisen 0

In Jujutsu Kaisen 0, Satoru Gojo serves as a teacher at Tokyo Jujutsu High, where he plays a pivotal role in recruiting and mentoring the protagonist, Yuta Okkotsu, amid the crisis caused by the powerful cursed spirit Rika Orimoto.^[17] Set in 2017, the story begins with Gojo intervening on Yuta's behalf before the higher-ups in the jujutsu world, advocating for his enrollment at the school rather than execution due to the uncontrollable curse bound to him.^[18] Gojo personally takes responsibility for Yuta's training, providing him with a cursed tool in the form of a katana and guiding him to harness Rika's immense power for jujutsu sorcery while emphasizing control and exorcism techniques.^[17] Gojo's mentorship extends to fostering Yuta's integration with his classmates, including Maki Zenin, Toge Inumaki, and Panda, by assigning joint missions and dropping protective veils to conceal their activities from non-sorcerers.^[18] He demonstrates a protective stance toward Yuta and Maki during these outings, using his Limitless technique to shield them from threats and ensure mission safety.^[18] This dynamic highlights Gojo's role as a guardian figure, pushing Yuta to confront his trauma and grow as a sorcerer while maintaining a lighthearted yet authoritative demeanor. Key events escalate when Suguru Geto, a former colleague and ideological adversary, leads a group of curse users in an assault on Tokyo Jujutsu High to capture Yuta and exploit Rika's power for his plan to eradicate non-sorcerers.^[17] Gojo confronts Geto directly on December 24, engaging in a fierce battle where he employs Limitless to overpower Geto's cursed spirit manipulation and protect his students, ultimately defeating him after Yuta's intervention weakens the enemy.^[18] Their encounter reveals the remnants of their past friendship from student days, with Geto lamenting their divergent paths and Gojo expressing unresolved sentiments, underscoring the ideological split that has defined their opposition.^[18] In the resolution, Gojo witnesses Yuta's successful exorcism of Rika, confirming the breaking of the curse and affirming Yuta's potential as a special grade sorcerer with ties to the Gojo clan.^[18] This victory thwarts Geto's scheme, solidifying Gojo's reputation as the strongest jujutsu sorcerer and setting the stage for Yuta's continued role at the school, one year before the events of the main storyline.^[17]

Jujutsu Kaisen main storyline

Satoru Gojo is introduced as a special grade jujutsu sorcerer and teacher at Tokyo Jujutsu High, where he becomes central to the main storyline beginning in June 2018, when high school student Yuji Itadori ingests a finger of the ancient curse Ryomen Sukuna, transforming him into Sukuna's vessel. Recognizing Yuji's potential and the threat posed by Sukuna, Gojo intervenes to save him from execution by the jujutsu higher-ups, arguing for Yuji's enrollment at the school under his supervision to train him as a sorcerer while containing the curse. He personally recruits and mentors Yuji alongside first-year students Megumi Fushiguro and Nobara Kugisaki, emphasizing practical combat training against cursed spirits in early missions, such as the confrontation at the detention center where Gojo demonstrates his overwhelming power by effortlessly subduing Sukuna's manifestation within Yuji.^[19]^[20] Throughout the initial arcs set in 2018, Gojo's involvement escalates during major events, including the Kyoto Goodwill Event, where he battles invading curse users from the Tokyo and Kyoto schools' exchange, neutralizing threats like Hanami with his Limitless technique to protect the students. Flashbacks to his youth in the Hidden Inventory arc, occurring in 2006, reveal formative experiences, such as his fight against Toji Fushiguro, which highlight his growth into the strongest modern sorcerer and inform his protective approach in the present timeline. In battles against special grade curses, Gojo decisively defeats Jogo in a volcanic domain clash and contributes to the elimination of Hanami during the Goodwill Event aftermath, showcasing his Infinity barrier and Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void as key to turning the tide against Mahito's group. These encounters underscore Gojo's narrative role in shielding the next generation while exposing the jujutsu society's corruption, as his defiance of higher-ups' conservative policies—such as their initial order to kill Yuji—sparks broader reforms.^[19]^[20] The Shibuya Incident arc in October 2018 marks a turning point, as Gojo arrives to combat a massive curse outbreak orchestrated by Mahito, Jogo, and their allies, single-handedly dismantling hordes of curses and transfigured humans with ease until he is ambushed and sealed within the Prison Realm artifact by a coordinated attack involving Kenjaku and Uraume. His sealing creates a power vacuum, allowing chaos to unfold without the strongest sorcerer's intervention and forcing students like Yuji to mature rapidly. Gojo remains absent through the Death Painting and Perfect Preparation arcs, with the storyline shifting to the Culling Game in late 2018, a nationwide ritual where he is eventually unsealed by his allies after strategic planning, returning to confront escalating threats from ancient curses and revived sorcerers.^[19]^[20] In the climactic Shinjuku Showdown arc spanning into 2019 within the story, Gojo engages in his ultimate confrontation against Ryomen Sukuna, now fully incarnated in Megumi's body, in a prolonged battle across chapters 222 to 236 that tests the limits of his abilities, including a refined version of his domain and hand-to-hand combat after Sukuna adapts to Infinity. This fight culminates in Gojo's death by Sukuna's world-splitting slash, a sacrificial outcome that galvanizes the remaining sorcerers—Yuji, Yuta Okkotsu, and others—to continue the battle, fulfilling Gojo's vision of empowering the youth to overthrow corrupt structures and defeat Sukuna. His absence post-sealing and ultimate sacrifice amplify the series' themes of institutional reform, as his earlier exposures of higher-ups' nepotism and secrecy lead to their downfall, with the manga concluding in September 2024 without revival for Gojo.^[19]^[20]

Other media appearances

Satoru Gojo appears as a playable character in the 2021 video game Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash, developed by Byking and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment, where players can utilize his Limitless technique in 2v2 battles against other sorcerers and cursed spirits.^[21] In the mobile game Jujutsu Kaisen: Phantom Parade, released in 2023 by Sumzap, Gojo serves as a summonable SSR character with abilities drawing from his core cursed techniques, including enhanced cursed energy manipulation voiced by Yuichi Nakamura.^[22] Gojo features prominently in the Jujutsu Kaisen stage adaptations, notably the second production titled Kyoto Goodwill Event / The Origin of Obedience, performed from December 2023 to January 2024, where actor Ryōsuke Miura reprised his role, emphasizing Gojo's mentorship and combat dynamics with students like Yuji Itadori and Megumi Fushiguro.^[23] In the 2022 light novel Jujutsu Kaisen: Summer of Ashes, Autumn of Dust by Ballad Kitaguni, illustrated by Gege Akutami and published by Shueisha, Gojo appears in side stories that expand on character interactions, including a chapter where he joins Kento Nanami on a mission in Hokkaido, providing deeper insight into his relationships during the main series timeline.^[24] Gojo has been featured in various official merchandise lines through 2025, including Funko Pop! vinyl figures such as the Anime Expo 2025 exclusive in his beach outfit, apparel collaborations like Under Armour's HeatGear shirts depicting his silhouette released in October 2025, and collectible items at events like Jump Festa 2025 holo cards and pop-up shops in Tokyo offering themed apparel and figures.^[25]^[26]^[27] In the anime adaptation, Gojo returns in the third season, titled The Culling Game Part 1, premiering on Crunchyroll on January 8, 2026, which adapts the Culling Game arc following his unsealing from the Prison Realm. Voiced by Yuichi Nakamura, the season continues his role in guiding the sorcerers against escalating threats.^[28]

Creation and development

Conception and design

Satoru Gojo was initially conceived by Gege Akutami for the 2017 one-shot manga Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School, serving as the mentor to protagonist Yuta Okkotsu at Tokyo Prefectural Jujutsu High School. This pilot chapter introduced Gojo's core visual elements, including his signature white hair and black blindfold, which were sketched to emphasize his enigmatic and superior presence among other characters. During serialization planning for the main Jujutsu Kaisen series, Gojo transitioned from this supporting role into a central narrative driver, with his design refined to highlight his role as the series' strongest sorcerer.^[29] Akutami developed Gojo as an overpowered mentor figure to embody the pinnacle of strength within the jujutsu world, intentionally crafting him to subvert traditional shonen expectations by being nearly invincible yet constrained by broader story needs. In the Jujutsu Kaisen Official Fanbook, Akutami explained his concept-first approach: "When I create characters, they have to fit into the canons of Shonen manga in order to catch the readers’ attention... Others are born first as a concept, for example, Gojo, who represents the pinnacle of strength."^[30]^[29] Thematically, Gojo embodies Akutami's vision of "modern sorcery" as a force for systemic change, positioning him as a disruptive educator challenging outdated hierarchies. His Limitless technique originated from Akutami's fascination with physics and mathematics, particularly concepts like Zeno's paradoxes and infinite convergent series, which were initially tied to quantum-like ideas of spatial manipulation before being formalized in the series. Akutami incorporated scientific consultations to refine these elements, ensuring Limitless represented innovative sorcery over archaic methods.^[31] Post-launch adjustments to Gojo's power scaling occurred to maintain narrative balance, as his dominance risked overshadowing protagonists. This evolution solidified Gojo's role as a trope-subverting mentor whose invincibility highlights the series' exploration of isolation and reform.^[32]

Voice acting and portrayal

In the anime adaptation of Jujutsu Kaisen, which began airing in October 2020, Satoru Gojo is voiced by Yuichi Nakamura in Japanese.^[33] Nakamura's portrayal has received significant acclaim for embodying Gojo's confident and playful demeanor, particularly in high-energy confrontations such as the taunts during the Shibuya Incident arc.^[34] This performance earned him the Best Voice Artist Performance (Japanese) award at the 2024 Crunchyroll Anime Awards for his work in Season 2.^[34] In interviews, Nakamura has discussed the challenges of voicing Gojo's evolution, noting that he intentionally subdued the character's tone in the Shibuya Incident to reflect greater maturity compared to the more exuberant delivery in the Hidden Inventory arc.^[35] For the English-language dub, Kaiji Tang has voiced Gojo since the 2021 release of Jujutsu Kaisen 0 and continuing through the main series up to Season 2 in 2023. Tang's interpretation highlights Gojo's charismatic and teasing personality, with a focus on emotional depth in quieter moments alongside dynamic action sequences.^[36] In a 2024 interview, Tang revealed that he nearly passed on the audition due to fatigue but ultimately committed to the role, emphasizing the character's blend of humor and intensity.^[37] The character has also been dubbed into other languages, including Latin American Spanish by Pepe Vilchis starting with the 2021 dubs, and French by Mark Lesser beginning in 2022 for Jujutsu Kaisen 0.^[38] In video games, such as Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash (2022), Gojo retains the same voice actors—Nakamura in Japanese and Tang in English—incorporating motion-captured animations to enhance battle scenes.^[39] As of November 2025, no official live-action film or television adaptation featuring Satoru Gojo has been produced, though fan-created concepts and discussions about potential Hollywood versions continue online. A live-action stage play adaptation of Jujutsu Kaisen 0 in 2024 cast Ryosuke Miura as Gojo, receiving positive feedback for its faithful recreation of key fights.^[40]

Reception and impact

Popularity and fan response

Satoru Gojo has consistently ranked as one of the most popular characters in Jujutsu Kaisen, topping multiple official polls conducted by Weekly Shōnen Jump. In the series' fourth character popularity poll, released in August 2024, Gojo received 113,392 votes, accounting for over 42% of the total and securing first place ahead of Yuji Itadori and Megumi Fushiguro.^[41] Earlier polls showed his rising appeal, placing third in the inaugural 2021 survey with 16,923 votes before climbing to second in subsequent years.^[42] On global platforms like MyAnimeList, Gojo has maintained a position among the top 10 most favorited anime characters since Jujutsu Kaisen's 2020 debut, with over 62,800 users listing him as a favorite as of November 2025.^[43] Fan engagement metrics underscore Gojo's dominance in the fandom. As of November 2025, Pixiv hosts over 38,000 illustrations tagged with "Satoru Gojo," reflecting extensive fan artwork creation.^[44] At major conventions like Anime Expo 2024, Gojo cosplays were highly prevalent, with numerous attendees portraying his signature blindfolded look and generating viral social media content during the event.^[45] Shipping dynamics further highlight Gojo's appeal, with the pairing of Gojo and Suguru Geto—known as SatoSugu—emerging as the most popular in the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom, often surpassing even canon-leaning alternatives like ItaFushi.^[46] Memes centered on Gojo proliferated following the Shibuya Incident arc's anime adaptation in 2023, including the viral "Gojo breathing" meme that humorously captured his brief appearance and overwhelming power, amassing millions of views on platforms like TikTok and Twitter.^[47] Gojo's demographic draw stems from his archetype as an overwhelmingly powerful yet playful mentor figure, resonating with fans seeking "strong yet relatable" characters who balance invincibility with humor and vulnerability.^[48] This appeal surged after the 2023 release of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2, which featured his pivotal Shibuya role, leading to his crowning as the top "anime crush" in Crunchyroll's 2023 poll with widespread international votes.^[49]

Critical analysis

Satoru Gojo's portrayal in Jujutsu Kaisen has been analyzed as a deconstruction of the overpowered protagonist archetype prevalent in shonen manga, where his unparalleled strength isolates him emotionally and narratively, forcing reliance on themes of loneliness and responsibility rather than constant victory. Critics note that while Gojo embodies the thrill of dominance, his character subverts expectations by highlighting the burdens of such power, as seen in his evolving relationships that underscore personal growth over unchallenged supremacy.^[50] Gojo's mentorship role receives praise for adding depth, portraying him as a caring guide who balances playfulness with profound influence on his students' development, transforming the typical aloof teacher trope into a multifaceted figure who imparts lessons on independence and resilience. However, some critiques point to flaws in narrative execution, particularly in high-stakes battles like his confrontation with Sukuna, where plot conveniences undermine tension and resolution, such as abrupt strategic shifts that prioritize spectacle over consistent character logic.^[51]^[52] Discussions on gender and representation often frame Gojo as emblematic of the male power fantasy in shonen, with his charisma and invincibility reinforcing idealized masculinity, yet feminist analyses highlight how later arcs critique this through his hubris, exposing vulnerabilities that humanize the archetype and address toxic elements of unchecked ego. Additionally, queer readings interpret his bond with Suguru Geto as subtle representation, challenging heteronormative dynamics in male-centric narratives.^[53] In comparative terms, Gojo is frequently contrasted with mentors like Kakashi Hatake from Naruto, sharing the enigmatic teacher persona but diverging in philosophy—Gojo's emphasis on individual strength versus Kakashi's focus on teamwork—while parallels to antagonists like Sōsuke Aizen from Bleach underscore shared themes of isolation due to superiority, enriching analyses of power's psychological toll in serialized storytelling.^[54]

Cultural influence and merchandise

Gojo has been referenced in K-pop fan culture, notably when BTS member Jungkook mimicked his iconic hand gesture in a 2023 behind-the-scenes video, sparking widespread fan edits and discussions blending anime with K-pop aesthetics.^[55]^[56] Merchandise featuring Gojo has been a major commercial driver for the franchise since the anime's 2020 debut. Bandai has produced lines of S.H.Figuarts action figures of Gojo starting in 2020, including versions from the Tokyo Jujutsu High School arc and Shibuya Incident, contributing to the series' strong sales in the anime collectibles market. Collaborations have expanded his presence in apparel, such as the 2022 Uniqlo UT collection tied to Jujutsu Kaisen 0, which included T-shirts featuring Gojo's design priced at $19.90 and available in stores across the United States. Good Smile Company has released multiple Nendoroid figures of Gojo, including the Tokyo Jujutsu High School version in 2021 and the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 edition in 2022, allowing fans to recreate his poses with interchangeable parts like sunglasses and blindfolds.^[57]^[58]^[59] Gojo's global reach is evident in digital meme culture, particularly on TikTok, where the hashtag #satorugojo has amassed over 998,000 views as of 2025, fueling edits, cosplay videos, and crossovers that export Jujutsu Kaisen elements to international audiences.^[60] This online popularity has influenced Western fan creations, such as comics and fan art integrating Gojo into broader pop culture narratives. His appeal has also tied into awards recognition, with Gojo winning Best Supporting Anime Character at the 2024 Crunchyroll Anime Awards for his role in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2, alongside nominations for voice performances in multiple languages. These factors have bolstered the franchise's economic impact, with Jujutsu Kaisen generating 4.97 billion yen in media mix revenue in 2024, making it Japan's top-earning anime and manga property that year and contributing to the overall anime industry's record $25.25 billion market value.^[34]^[61]
