Jujutsu Kaisen lost its favorite character Gojo Satoru a few chapters back in a fight with the King of the Curses Sukuna. Gojo Satoru’s death had a huge impact on the fans and the story of the series as it was a major twist that no one expected. His death caused a lot of stir among fans who mourned his death, unlike any other character the anime world has ever seen.
Fans were so much affected by his death that they started devising theories and notions through which Gojo Satoru could make a return to the story and reinstate his position as the most loved and adored character of the series. However, till now no theory strong enough has been devised that could support the return of Gojo, nor it has been confirmed by the creator Gege Akutami.
However, there is a way that can facilitate the return of the fan-favorite character, but it comes with a huge cost and good news for Sukuna fans as it may involve Gojo losing his abilities in the process of his return, which would surely take away his title of the strongest sorcerer in Jujutsu Kaisen history. This method involves a binding vow that could be a big risk as it involves a huge price.
What is a Binding Vow in Jujutsu Kaisen?
A binding vow is a jujutsu agreement in which one person establishes terms for themselves or with others. All practitioners of jujutsu regard binding vows as one of the fundamental principles of jujutsu magick.
A person can make binding vows with themselves or with another person, which are contracts made with cursed energy. While following the guidelines and limitations outlined in these contracts can lead to increased power or the accomplishment of a goal, breaking a legally binding vow has uncanny consequences.
The individuals involved in the act get what they want at a specific price, and the agreement is unbreakable. Therefore, in the case of Gojo, he might also have to establish a binding vow with himself which might be a huge risk as it may involve losing a big ability or power and impact his strength in a great way.
Gojo Satoru Can Return With The Help of a Binding Vow
There’s no doubt that a binding vow can save Gojo’s life and bring him back. Gojo can make a Binding Vow with himself that would grant him life in exchange for something very significant—his powers.
Gojo is so powerful that the world’s equilibrium was altered simply by his birth. He has abilities that are perfectly matched to his life, enabling him to destroy almost anybody. However, that would not entirely be good news for Gojo fans as it would take away the ability that grants him the title of “The Honored One throughout Heaven and Earth.”
This would in turn become good news for Sukuna fans as Gojo would not be able to defeat him after losing such a big chunk of his powers thus making Sukuna the strongest character in the entire series even after Gojo’s resurrection.
