In the world of Jujutsu Kaisen, Gojo Satoru has always been seen as the pinnacle of power. However, according to the latest fan poll from Japan (via Ranking.net), the title of strongest has officially changed hands. Does the new champion truly surpass the Six Eyes wielder?
Top 10 Strongest Jujutsu Kaisen Characters According to Japanese Fans
Based on the poll results, Ryomen Sukuna claimed the top spot with a narrow lead over Gojo. Here is the detailed ranking:
Why Gojo Satoru Is No Longer the “Strongest”?
Gojo has always been the most beloved character in Gege Akutami’s series. However, fans’ changing attitudes may stem from his long absence from the spotlight. With the rise of many formidable characters in recent arcs, the focus of the power rankings has begun to shift.
What Makes Ryomen Sukuna Dominate the Rankings?
The “King of Curses” Sukuna wields an enormous amount of cursed energy along with devastating techniques like Malevolent Shrine, Dismantle, Cleave, and especially the Fire Arrow “Fuga.” His ultimate power is the Expansion Domain, Malevolent Shrine. Additionally, his Reverse Cursed Technique allows him to heal nearly any injury instantly.
The deadly battle in chapter 236 provided the final answer. By possessing Megumi’s body and using the Ten Shadows Technique to summon Mahoraga, Sukuna found a weakness in Infinity. He executed the “World-Cutting Slash,” breaking through all physical barriers to defeat Gojo Satoru.
While some argue that this victory heavily relied on Mahoraga’s support, it’s undeniable that Sukuna’s strategy to switch from Yuji’s body to Megumi’s was a masterful calculation. This solidifies why Japanese fans voted him as number one.
