Gojo Satoru’s death in Jujutsu Kaisen is still one of the most heartbreaking things that has ever happened in the anime world. Fans have been devastated for the past few months since the manga revealed the demise of the most loved character in Jujutsu Kaisen. Fans have been hoping and praying that Gege Akutami finds a way to bring Gojo back.
His battle with Sukuna was not only one of the best fights ever, but it also was one of the most depressing moments of the series as fans had to see their favorite character get split in half. Since his death, many hardcore Jujutsu Kaisen have been devising theories that could bring him back into the story.
These theories give fans a sense of hope that there might be ways through which Gojo can return to the series and regain his title of the honored one among heaven and earth. One such theory has surfaced on the internet which not only guarantees Gojo’s return but also confirms him defeating Sukuna after his return.
Theory Confirms Gojo Satoru Returning To Jujutsu Kaisen and Defeating Sukuna
In the case of Jujutsu Kaisen, nothing is confirmed regarding the next development as Akutami always finds a way to twist the story more and more. However, in the case of Gojo, the perfect way to mark his return is for him to come back and defeat Sukuna. This would do justice to his character as the strongest Jujutsu sorcerer in the world.
There is a theory that claims Gojo is bound by a binding vow. Similar to how Aoi Todo’s binding vow of “revealing one’s hand” requires him to tell his opponents how his ability works which in return makes him stronger, Gojo Satoru’s binding vow is that each near-death experience makes him stronger; it’s as though each brush with death unlocks his full potential. Perhaps this explains why his second battle with Toji was so one-sided.
If the theory carries some credence and Gojo’s return is confirmed through the binding vow, he would enter the battlefield much more stronger to face the king of curses Sukuna. A Sukuna vs. Gojo rematch would be the ideal plot device for his return as it would not only make fans happy for his return, but it would also help Gojo take his title back and again become the strongest sorcerer in the world.
Can a Binding Vow Bring Gojo Satoru Back?
The Binding Vows may hold the ability to bring Gojo back, but it can be in two instances. The first is the theory that just like the revealing one’s hand, Gojo’s binding vow would make him stronger than before and would help him defeat Sukuna after being killed by him in the battle.
The second theory regarding the binding vow is that strong binding vows like returning from the dead require a huge sacrifice equivalent of the return. If this theory comes true then Gojo might have to sacrifice his powers that shifted the balance of the world when he was born. Sacrificing his powers would be the exact equivalent of coming back from the dead.
Both of these theories involve Binding vows but guarantee Gojo’s return. However, the first theory would make fans happier as this would help generate another extraordinary battle between the honored one and the Kind of Curses.
