Be it Japanese folklore or stunning visuals, Jujutsu Kaisen is impeccable in its delivery of unconventional storylines. Gege Akutami blends heroism, friendship, and folklore perfectly in this manga. With the completion of My Hero Academia’s manga, JJK is also nearing its end with five chapters.
Although the manga is nearing its end, recent developments have fans in shock and disbelief. With Nobara Kugisaki’s return, several fans expect Satoru Gojo’s comeback in the manga. While Nobara’s return offers a glimmer of hope, the uncertainty surrounding Gojo’s status has fans expressing their disappointment on the Internet.
Satoru Gojo’s overarching presence in Jujutsu Kaisen has influenced the fanbase
Satoru Gojo is one of the strongest characters in Jujutsu Kaisen written by Gege Akutami. Apart from being a successor of the Gojo clan, one of the strongest sorcerer clans in the series, he mentors Yuji Itadori, Nobara Kugisaki, and Megumi Fushiguro. He’s also one of the most powerful sorcerers in the series.
Although he appears as a deuteragonist in the series, his popularity and presence remain unmatched. Gojo ranked 2nd and 3rd in the popularity polls consecutively. Besides that, the fanbase of this series adores the character to the point of obsession. This is clear through the fans’ reaction to his death.
To add to that, Satoru Gojo’s overarching presence in the series continues to impact fans. This holds especially after his death, which triggered shock and disbelief among fans. While the character’s death is attributed to the author’s hate towards him, several fans wait in anticipation of his return to manga.
