Gege Akutami made a very impactful decision in their story when they decided to kill Gojo Satoru, which came as a shock to many fans and viewers who never thought that such a character would be killed. Ever since Gojo fans have been looking for any kind of clue for their beloved character to return.
However, the chances are getting slimmer and slimmer with each passing chapter, but according to a theory by user Baeli on X. Gojo can come back to life by sacrificing his eyes, which could be a similar move to what Hakari did during his fight, where he survived by sacrificing his hand in a binding vow.
Binding Vow similar to Hakari, can be the key to Satoru Gojo’s return in Jujutsu Kaisen
Jujutsu Kaisen as a series had a very successful year, with the sales of manga being at an all-time high as well as the anime grabbing a spot in the top 3 most-in-demand shows worldwide.
However, 2023 also marked the end of Gojo Satoru, who was given the offscreen treatment by the author of the series in Chapter 236.
The fans of Jujutsu Kaisen have gone crazy after Chapter 236, which saw the demise of arguably the most favorite character in the series, Gojo Satoru.
Gojo’s fans are looking for any kind of hope but with each passing chapter, the chances of him returning are starting to get lower and lower.
However, a popular theory among the fandom suggests that Gojo could make a potential return to the series by using a binding vow and sacrificing his precious six eyes.
As seen during the fight with Kashimo, Hakari used a binding vow to survive, but he sacrificed his hand to do it.
During the fight with Sukuna, Gojo gets his hand cut, which is strikingly similar to that of Hakari, which could be a foreshadowing of his return.
However, as each chapter keeps progressing, this could be the last chance for Gojo to return until it is too late.
Effects of Gojo’s Presence in Jujutsu Kaisen
Gojo Satoru was responsible for maintaining the balance in the Jujutsu world; without the balance, it tips way too much on the evil side.
The compare and contrast in seasons one and two could be used for comparison to see the importance of Gojo. Season one was very jolly and everything was fun and under control.
As soon as Gojo was sealed in Shibuya, terrible events unfolded; many characters died, and innocent civilians too.
For the progression of the story, Gojo needed to be killed, since most people keep forgetting that he is not the main character of the series.
Now that Gojo is gone, no one in the entire story is strong enough to hold a candle to Sukuna and only his return could see the demise of the king of curses.
