JuJutsu Kaisen Gojo Death: Why, What Truly Happened and Theories

Jujutsu Kaisen is currently one of the most popular new generation Shonen anime and manga series. With its complex power system and incredible character designs, the series immediately became popular with fans. In particular, the character Gojo contributed greatly to the global popularity of the series. However, Jujutsu Kaisen Gojo Satoru's death in the battle of the strongest shocked fans. Join Japan Figure to discover the reasons and truth behind JuJutsu Kaisen Gojo Death.

1. The Power and Role of Gojo

Gojo Sensei appears in Jujutsu Kaisen as a lifesaver and magic teacher for the main character Itadori Yuji. His tall, handsome appearance, jubilant personality and especially the "strongest among magicians" have conquered many hearts of "wibu".

He could take out all the superior spellcasters any time he wanted and defeat Sukuna even if he returned to his original form.

Gojo possesses enormous power from Six Eyes and Infinite Limits inherited from the Gojo family. This power gives Gojo an almost endless source of magic power, combined with his masterful taijutsu skills, making him an invincible magician.

The Shibuya Incident is an event in Jujutsu Kaisen where Gojo Satoru was sealed for a long time, then rescued by his friends and students. As soon as he was "released from prison" - a term of endearment in the online community for the time when Gojo was sealed, before he could mourn his fallen comrades and students, he immediately had to confront the strongest villain - Sukuna.

2. Did Gojo Die in Jujutsu Kaisen?

Chapter 235 almost confirmed Gojo's victory in the battle of the strongest. However, before fans could celebrate for a long time, Gege Akutami dropped a major bombshell in the next chapter. This is how the mangaka gave the most painful death in the most tragic way to a fan-favorite character.

If you're wondering exactly "How does Gojo die in Jujutsu Kaisen?", the answer seems to be no specifics. Gojo's death is shown quickly and very unexpectedly by the opening of chapter 236. Chapter 236 begins with Gojo talking to the souls of his friends, Geto, Nanami, and Haibara. He also meets Riko and Kuroi and bids them farewell before the scene changes to his lifeless body lying on the ground.

Sukuna explains how Mahoraga's adaptability works. It depends on the amount of time that passes after the Shikigami receives the attack. He wants the Shikigami to be a “model” of Gojo's passage through Infinity. Instead of attacking Gojo directly, Mahoraga aimed at the space around him.

Therefore, Gojo's Infinity doesn't matter as long as he is present in space where Mahoraga can literally cut through anything. As a result, Gojo was cut in half along with that space.

3. Fan Community Reaction to Jujutsu Kaisen Gojo Satoru Death

3.1. Fans Are Angry by Jujutsu Kaisen Gojo Satoru Death

In chapter 235 of Jujutsu Kaisen, fans were extremely happy to hear that Gojo had defeated Sukuna and Zi. After a week of waiting, fans' emotions went from Mount Everest to the bottom of the ocean when they realized it was all a hoax.

The fan community was extremely angry at Jujutsu Kaisen Gojo Satoru Death

They expressed their outrage at the author and their grief for JuJutsu Kaisen Gojo Death with comments such as:

“You use your strength to protect everyone, but you can't protect your own life.”

“You have worked hard! Rest in peace!”

“Author give me your address. I guarantee your house will be the brightest tonight."

“Hate the author.”

“Someone come and save me.”

Many people even declared they would stop watching the manga after witnessing the author's cruel spin. Currently, the entire manga-loving community is extremely confused by the sudden passing of Gojo Satoru in chapter 236 of Jujutsu Kaisen. With Gojo's death, has Jujutsu Kaisen ended?

3.2. New Theories about Jujutsu Kaisen Gojo Death Created by Fans

Because they were so angry at the truth about Jujutsu Kaisen Gojo Satoru Death, fans hypothesized that Gojo had lost on purpose to surprise Sukuna. Sukuna's growing arrogance after defeating Satoru Gojo may have been part of a clever plan by his sensei and the other spellcasters to catch Sukuna off guard.

Many theories have been put forward, such as Gojo may have planned to leave Sukuna helpless in the territory

In the most recent chapter of Jujutsu Kaisen, Yuji Itadori, and Hiromi Higuruma enter the battlefield to confront the King of Curse. With his abilities, Higuruma may hold the key to defeating Sukuna. Because in Higuruma's domain, all acts of violence are prohibited and he acts as the lawyer and the Shikigami as the judge.

This makes the opponent guilty of the territory and Higuruma will use his forensic skills to prove the opponent's guilt to the Shikigami. If guilt is proven, the Shikigami will remove all of the culprit's cursed energy, allowing Higuruma to easily defeat him. Gojo may have planned to exploit this power from Higuruma's domain to render Sukuna powerless within the domain.

If Gojo was still alive, what would happen in the future?

If the above fan theory is correct, it would be a fascinating way to build on the story of Jujutsu Kaisen, which is already in its final stages. Furthermore, if Gojo had planned this, he might even be alive.
