As a teacher, mentor, and face of Jujutsu Kaisen's sorcerer community, Satoru Gojo's words matter. Moreover, Gojo had no problems voicing his opinions or making brash comments. He relished letting friends or foes, underlings, or colleagues know what he was thinking. Accordingly, for the parts of the story that he was in, Gojo was a walking generator of quotable quotes.

As the self-claimed, and widely acknowledged, most powerful wizard in the Jujustu sorcerer community, Gojo had an enormous ego.

His teaching instincts made it easy for him to give advice. His pride made it easy for him to advise anyone he felt needed - which was everyone he met - including Sukuna.

20 "You Cryin'?"

Season 2, Episode #5, "Hidden Inventory/Premature Death"

An iconic line from the Hidden Inventory arc, the cheeky comment was aimed at Utahime after Gojo swoops in to rescue her and gives a bit of context as to the comically strained relationship between the pair once they reach adulthood. The moment also perfectly characterizes Gojo, showing that while he doesn't mind playing the hero, especially when it comes to rescuing his friends, he's still unapologetically himself in every situation he's thrown into.

The tragic history between Gojo and his best friend Geto culminates in the Shibuya arc in the most heartbreaking way possible when Gojo finally sees Geto, or rather Kenjaku in Geto's body. Having been the one to kill Geto after the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, Gojo is reasonably confused seeing his former friend standing before him again.

Of course, Kenjaku takes full advantage of this knowledge to trap Gojo in the Prison Realm as he struggles with the memories flashing before his eyes at the sight of Geto's face. Gojo's words reflect his disbelief, as he logically knows that Geto is dead even without needing to use the Six Eyes and, as much as he wants Geto to be alive, he knows it simply cannot be, lacing his words with an unmistakable tinge of sadness.

18 "Don't Worry, I'm the Strongest."

Chapter 2 "Secret Execution", Season 1, Episode 2 "For Myself"

Character introductions are quite crucial and this quote from Gojo's very first appearance in the series is quite straightforward and sums up exactly what his character is like right from the get-go. When Yuji first eats Sukuna's finger, Gojo arrives at the scene not long after and tells him to let Sukuna take control for ten seconds. Yuji is of course reasonably concerned but Gojo reassures him that he is the strongest and will be able to handle it.

Gojo then engages in a brief exchange of blows, never quite fazed by Sukuna, proving that he is indeed quite adept despite his silly, laidback persona.

Of course, as the series progresses, fans find out that there is indeed much more to Gojo's character, and his status as the strongest holds quite a bit of depth and meaning, but the quote serves as an effective introduction to his character nonetheless.

17 “We Can’t Have Him Becoming SkullGreymon...”

Season 2, Episode #5, "Hidden Inventory/Premature Death"

The Secret Inventory arc explored Gojo's backstory, and gave audiences a look into what happened between the world's strongest sorcerer and his ex-best friend Geto before he became antagonistic. The arc shows what the pair were like back when they were students at Jujutsu high, and before they had to worry about the many problems that adult sorcerers face. One of the funniest moments in the arc was an unexpected Digimon reference made by Gojo. During a conversation regarding something relatively important, the sorcerer says: "I get it. It would be fine if he turned into MetalGreymon, but we can‘t have him becoming SkullGreymon. So we have him start over from Koromon." The moment proves that Gojo, even when discussing something serious, can't help but make a lighthearted comment.

16 “Maybe I Should Just Kill All The Higher-Ups. ”

Season 1, Episode #5, "Curse Womb Must Die II"

For many Jujutsu Kaisen fans, it's easy to see Gojo as a character with a bit of an ego. His whole life, he's been deemed the strongest, and despite internal conflicts he has regarding himself – he believes it. Gojo is also an individual that, despite his status in the world, despises Jujutsu politics, and in turn, holds a deep hatred for many of the elders that make rules for Jujutsu society. That's why it comes as no surprise that in the middle of a relatively casual conversation, Gojo drops a comment contemplating whether it'd be worth it to kill all te higher-ups in the Jujutsu world. While he could've just been making an offputting joke, there's a strong chance that the powerful sorcerer was speaking his genuine thoughts out loud.

15 "It'll be Fine. After All... You're Weak."

Chapter 15 "Domain", Season 1, Episode 7 "Assault"

Gojo's fight against Jogo at the beginning of the series includes yet another one of Gojo's most well-known quotes. At this point, very little was known about Gojo's abilities, and his words served as a direct insult to Jogo, a seemingly powerful curse at the time. Nonetheless, Gojo exuded pure confidence, and his Cursed Technique and Domain Expansion were subsequently explained as he fought Jogo without breaking much of a sweat.

The scene proved exactly why Gojo was called the strongest sorcerer and that he did indeed have the strength to back up his arrogance. Gojo is quite simply one of the few sorcerers so sure of his abilities that he could tell a curse that he was weak right to his face, and the quote is easily one of the most memorable instances from the early stages of the story that endeared Gojo's character to fans.

14 "Me, a Target of the Great Sukuna? What an Honor!"

Season 1, Episode 2, "For Myself"

One thing that really made Jujutsu Kaisen stand out when it began airing was the way that it flipped the classic shonen idea of the "protagonist being taken over by a malicious entity" by having Yuji willingly eat an extremely cursed object which caused him to become possessed by the "King of Curses", Ryomen Sukuna. In the second episode of the anime's first season, the series introduces Gojo Satoru as a force to be reckoned with, jumping into battle with Sukuna and making a coy comment about having a target on his back. Given recent events in the manga, this comment holds even more weight.

13 "You Can Make A Flower Bloom, You Can Admire It... But You Can't Tell That Flower, 'I Want You to Understand Me.'"

Chapter 236 "Heading South"

20 Best Gojo Quotes in Jujutsu Kaisen (3)

As the chapter which breaks the news of Gojo's death in Jujutsu Kaisen, chapter 236 provides boundless insight into Gojo's character and his point of view on the fight against Sukuna. Gojo is seen at an airport talking to his fellow departed friends and sorcerers and makes a lovely analogy using flowers which can be interpreted in two ways.

On one hand, one can take the flowers to represent Gojo, who was always defined by his strength almost to the point of being objectified because of it. No one, except for maybe Geto, had ever been able to understand Gojo for who he truly was or even form much of a connection with him. Thus, he simply remained a flower that everyone could admire on a surface level for his unquestionable strength.

On the other hand, Gojo's words can also be taken to represent his relationship with his students and fellow sorcerers. As their teacher, Gojo helped them bloom by cultivating their abilities and helping them get stronger. However, his words imply that the sheer difference in strength between them never really allowed Gojo to connect with them or understand them .

12 "It's Your Long Dead Friend Yuji!"

Season 1, Episode #14, "Kyoto Sister School Exchange Event - Group Battle 0"

Despite thinking that he'd died halfway season 1 of Jujutsu Kaisen, Nobara and Megumi were relieved – if annoyed – to discover that he had in fact survived. The sorcerer made his grand re-introduction right before the Kyoto Exchange Student event, with Gojo valiantly declaring how he was brought back. Yuji's classmates might not have taken the news as well as the student-teacher pair expected, but the moment shows how Gojo and Yuji's fun-loving personalities can sometimes be just a tad obnoxious to the people around them, even if they are endearing.

11 "Throughout Heaven and Earth... I Alone Am the Honored One."

Chapter 75 "Hidden Inventory, Part 11", Season 2, Episode 4 "Hidden Inventory 4"

20 Best Gojo Quotes in Jujutsu Kaisen (4)

✕ Remove Ads

One of Gojo's most iconic quotes in Jujutsu Kaisen occurs during his fight against Toji Fushiguro. Taken to the edge of death by the Sorcerer Killer, Gojo has an epiphany about his Cursed Technique and gains a new understanding of Reverse Cursed Technique. As the strongest sorcerer in the series, Gojo has always been cocky and arrogant, and rightly so. As such, the sentence comes across as characteristically egotistical.

That said, Gojo's words against Toji reflect his enlightenment as he finally discovers the true extent of his powers and transcends the assumed limitations of what jujutsu can accomplish. Gojo referring to himself as 'the honored one' also draws interesting parallels to Sukuna, who is later referred to as 'the disgraced one' by Angel, seemingly setting up their fateful battle.

10 "For Real Real. I Feel Like New."

Chapter 74 "Hidden Inventory", Season 2, Episode 4 "Hidden Inventory 4"

✕ Remove Ads

One of the more shocking events in the early part of the story was Toji Fushiguro's assassination of Gojo. Until that point, Gojo seemed invincible or, at the very least, able to put up a better fight than he did against Toji's initial push. The surprise and shock that fans felt was echoed in the expression on Gojo's face. If humiliation could be personified- Gojo was its poster boy. However, fans were equally surprised - as was Toji - by his complete recovery two chapters later. Not only does it demonstrate that Gojo is still his egotistical self, but more importantly, that he's found a means to be even better than he was before.

9 "They'll Be As Good As Me Someday."

Chapter 11 "The Dream", Season 1, Episode 6 "After the Rain"

20 Best Gojo Quotes in Jujutsu Kaisen (5)

✕ Remove Ads

With all his bluster and pushing of the personal brand, it’s clear that Gojo did not think highly of many other sorcerers in the community. Indeed, as his first encounter with Sukuna illustrated, he didn’t even think much of the King of Curses – the most feared sorcerer in the history of the world.

That’s what makes this quote so interesting. Not only does he admit that there are others as good as him, but it also reveals Gojo's tacit admission that they have the potential to be better than him. That is, anyone as good as Gojo should either be able to defeat him or, at least, not be defeated by him - which, for Gojo, is as good as being defeated.

8 "I'm Gonna Reset This Crappy Jujutsu World."

Chapter 11 "The Dream", Season 1, Episode 6 "After the Rain"

✕ Remove Ads

In his younger days as a student, Gojo enjoyed the whole Jujutsu sorcerer experience. He lived and breathed it, and came away happier from the experience. But with the cold-blooded murder of Riko Amanai, and his friend's steady descent into the darkness afterward, Gojo's understanding of the Jujutsu sorcerer community matured. He no longer saw the community as a source of his enjoyment but as a cabal that manipulated others, especially the youth, for their own interests. This quote succinctly elucidates Gojo’s contempt for community administration in its current form and his plan to change it for the better.

7 "Purple!"

Chapter 75 "The Hidden Inventory, Part 11", Season 2, Episode 4 "Hidden Inventory 4"

Gojo was born with a silver spoon of magical abilities, namely, being the first Gojo clan member in recent memory to be born with both the Six Eyes and Limitless techniques. However, what he, and everyone else, did not know at the time was that Gojo also had the ability to use a secret, super-powerful, Gojo clan technique known as Purple.

✕ Remove Ads

Purple combines Limitless' Red and Bull abilities to unleash a massive destructive force. Gojo only discovered how to use Purple in the middle of his fight against Toji Fushiguro. The stress of dying, resurrecting, and fighting for his life again unlocked the secret of its use. This quote is the incantation that unleashes its power.

6 "Infinity Exists Everywhere."

Chapter 14 "Assault", Season 1, Episode 7 Assault"

One of the reasons Gojo has such a big ego is because he truly is a powerful sorcerer. Power hasn’t corrupted Gojo, it just gave him an inflated belief in himself. However, one problem with fans' understanding of his power is that it's hard to understand intuitively. This quote goes a long way to pulling back the curtain on his abilities.

✕ Remove Ads

It reveals that, like the mathematical formula for infinity, the technique approximates the attempt to close the distance between two points moving in the same direction. According to the formula, the distance can never equal "0", because the point ahead will always be infinitesimally ahead of the point behind. Since infinity is everywhere, Gojo can manipulate it such that nothing should be able to hit Gojo unless he decides to turn off the ability.

5 "I Have Faith In Everyone."

Chapter 91 "The Shibuya Incident, Part 9", Season 2, Episode 10 "Pandemonium"

✕ Remove Ads

The Shibuya Incident arc ended with Kenjaku pulling off one of the most important power moves in the story – he was able to trick Gojo just long enough to send him to the Prison Realm. Almost as soon as the trap was sprung, Gojo cursed himself for making a rookie mistake, and not having been more careful.

Nevertheless, despite being the guy who always wants the final shot, this quote reveals how much Gojo has matured. That is, he realizes that he doesn’t need to rely on himself to get the win. Rather, he can rest assured that his team – Yuji, Nobara, Megumi, and the others won't just step forward and take up the fight, but actually win it.

Gojo includes Nobara Kugisaki among the students he has faith in. This is likely because, at the time that he was sealed in the prison realm, he had not learned of Nobara's fate.

4 "I Hope You Don't Mind If I Show Off A Little."

Chapter 2 "Secret Execution", Season 1, Episode 2 "For Myself"

✕ Remove Ads

One of the subtler but more enjoyable elements of Gojo's personality is his sense of humor. At times, it can be exuberantly hilarious, even finding ways to use Digimon to a complex sorcerer's concept. At other times, it can be cutting and acerbic. However, it's always entertaining. Whether he uses it as a tactic to throw off an opponent, to cope with the stress of the situation, or whether he truly finds the situation - it's always entertaining.

Moreover, it also provides a key marker of his attitude. When Gojo stops joking, he’s about to get serious. This quote is the perfect example of his sense of humor. Interestingly, he's used it twice, both times being right before fighting Sukuna.

3 "My Best Friend Did. My One And Only."

Chapter 0.4 "Bright Darkness", Jujutsu Kaizen 0

✕ Remove Ads

Gojo is the perfect example of a social introvert. He can, and does, hang out with others. He is not socially awkward in public – in fact, he quite enjoys the limelight. However, all these interactions are merely at the surface level. There’s no deeper connection with the people around him. He is engaging but aloof. Intuitively, this makes sense. He's been so powerful for so long that it's hard for him to relate on a personal level with anyone else. This quote exposes Gojo's loneliness.

Gojo is the perfect example of a social introvert.

Geto was, for a time, as powerful as Gojo and suffered many of the same problems connecting with others. They quickly formed a deep bond, and for once in his life Gojo had a true friend - and it made him happy. The death of Riko Amanai changed that, and Gojo has been lonely ever since. After Geto, he had more in common with Sukuna than with other sorcerers.

2 "Love Is The Most Twisted Curse Of All."

Chapter 0.1: "The Cursed Child", Jujutsu Kaisen 0

This is an interesting quote largely due to those who made it. While Gojo is interested and cares for his students and the Jujutsu sorcerer community, there had been no evidence at that time that he'd experienced the kind of love that existed between Yuta and Rika. In other words, it would not have been out of place for Yuta to ask Gojo, "Who are you to tell me about love."

However, upon deeper consideration, the quote is quite profound. Considering what we learn later about Gojo's relationship with Geto, it reveals that Gojo certainly knows enough to offer his opinion. On the other hand, based on the translation in the manga, the quote implies that curses, like Rika, who spawn as a result of negative emotions connected with love, are bound to be abnormal and mutant because the underlying emotion is so powerful and intense. Taken both ways, it reveals the comprehensiveness of Gojo's mindset and that he was looking for a way to help Yuta.

In the manga, Gojo says, "I've always believed love manifests the most distorted curses."

1 "Nah, I'd Win."

Chapter 221: "Gain and Loss"

If there is any quote that distills the essence of Saturo Gojo, this is the one. It was made in response to a question from Yuji about whether Gojo would be able to defeat a resurrected Sukuna. Gojo's response was instinctual and immediate. It left little doubt in Yuji’s mind about who would win. Moreover, it's the type of response fans have come to expect. Other than his brush with Toji Fushiguro, no one has come close to stopping Gojo. Gojo never gets in a fight he thinks he'll lose, because every fight he gets into - he wins. It oozes Gojo’s brash and bombastic persona. It was also absolutely accurate - until it wasn't.
