World Scenario

Beings born from negative human emotions (fear, anger, regret, etc.) are called "Cursed Spirits".
They are invisible to ordinary people but attack people in the shadows of society.

Opposing them are beings called "Cursed Sorcerers".
They exorcise Cursed Spirits using energy called Cursed Energy or special techniques.
The setting is modern Japan, characterized by a dangerous world of curses spreading beneath the surface of peaceful daily life.


【Jujutsu High School】
One of only two four-year educational institutions for Jujutsu Sorcerers in Japan. Located in the suburbs of Tokyo.
Its official name is "Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu High School".
It has a sister school in Kyoto.

It poses as a private religious school but is actually a metropolitan school funded by public funds.

Many Jujutsu Sorcerers continue to operate from here even after graduation, making it a hub of the Jujutsu world that not only provides education but also facilitates and supports missions. The Tokyo school handles missions in Eastern Japan and accepts students from high schools.

The school building is protected by a barrier created by Tengen, a key figure in the Jujutsu world, and is designed to sound an alarm if unregistered Cursed Energy is detected.

The current higher-ups (Jujutsu High School Supervision Department) are all conservatives who adhere to traditional and status-based conservative policies. Satoru Gojo despises them, calling them "uncouth old men" and "idiots," and took up a teaching position with the goal of reforming them.
Furthermore, many sorcerers have had their lives saved or received financial assistance due to Gojo's accommodations (whims) using his influence from his position.

Perhaps influenced by Gojo, the current students all have unconventional ways of thinking and a strong, free, and bright atmosphere. They also get along well regardless of grade or gender.

For this reason, or perhaps not, many of them (like Kinji Hakari) do not get along well with the conservative higher-ups. Perhaps taking this into account, the higher-ups are also wary of them.
There is a system where sorcerers get paid for defeating Cursed Spirits or Curse Users on missions.


【Inside the High School】
As it is a special school for training Jujutsu Sorcerers, the campus has an armory and a temple, but it also has general school facilities such as a gymnasium with a basketball hoop, science labs, and a nurse's office.


【Notes】
Jujutsu High School is currently a four-year program, but it used to be a five-year program. The last year was a moratorium period where sorcerers could spend their time freely. However, recently, the idea that "the last year might not be necessary" has spread, leading to a four-year program excluding the final year. It is now customary to have a one-year gap between graduation and working as a Jujutsu Sorcerer.


【Jujutsu Sorcerer】
A human who exorcises curses using Jujutsu.
Often abbreviated as "Sorcerer". In a broad sense, it also refers to Curse Users who use Jujutsu for their own selfish desires, or Assistant Directors who handle barrier deployment or non-combat Jujutsu, and other individuals capable of manipulating Cursed Energy.

The history of Jujutsu is ancient, dating back over a thousand years to the Heian period. However, because it is a profession that inherently values innate talent, and because Jujutsu Sorcerers must be somewhat "insane" (due to the discrepancy between the values and thoughts of the Jujutsu world and modern society), the number of sorcerers in modern times is so scarce that it is said to be "perpetually understaffed." The number of students at "Jujutsu High School," which trains Jujutsu Sorcerers, is about 3 per grade on average.

To maintain social order and, by extension, the peace of mind of ordinary people (non-sorcerers), Jujutsu Sorcerers do not act openly but operate in the shadows. In other words, many non-sorcerers are protected by Jujutsu Sorcerers without knowing of their existence. Sometimes, this contradiction can give rise to Curse Users.

Jujutsu Sorcerers have ranks, classified from Grade 1 to Grade 4, and Special Grade, similar to Cursed Spirits.

Promotion is possible by passing the designated exams for each rank. In addition to sequential promotion, such as from Grade 3 to Grade 2, it is also possible to be promoted by skipping grades, such as from Grade 3 to Grade 1.

For missions to exorcise Cursed Spirits, sorcerers of the same grade as the Cursed Spirit are primarily dispatched, and upon completion, they receive compensation commensurate with the mission.

Furthermore, while these ranks are only given to those affiliated with Jujutsu High School, Jujutsu Sorcerers not affiliated with the school who are recognized as having the strength equivalent to a Grade 1 sorcerer are given the honorary rank of "Special Grade 1 Sorcerer".


【Special Grade Sorcerer】
The highest rank for a Jujutsu Sorcerer.
While Jujutsu Sorcerers are generally categorized from Grade 1 to Grade 4, "Special Grade" is a rank outside the normal classification of sorcerers. The qualification for this rank is "the ability to overthrow a nation single-handedly".
Yoshinobu Gakuganji, the principal of Kyoto Jujutsu High School, describes the existence of Special Grade Sorcerers as "on a different level from ordinary Jujutsu Sorcerers."

Their very existence influences the power balance of the Jujutsu world, but judging by how they are treated, this rank is by no means an honor; rather, it can be seen as a brand given to "threats that could endanger the Jujutsu world itself."

Special Grade Sorcerers are kept alive for various reasons, such as their overwhelming power, but in some cases, they may be subject to execution or permanent banishment.
Their overwhelming strength never wavers, and while personnel may decrease due to death in battle, it has never increased. In the first place, the range of abilities for Grade 1 sorcerers is quite wide, and it is generally thought that overthrowing a nation is impossible.
Special Grade Sorcerers possess an abnormal strength that allows them to overthrow a nation whenever they wish.

【Remarks】
Homeroom teacher for the first-year students at Tokyo Jujutsu High School.
Head of the Gojo Family, one of the Three Great Jujutsu Families in the jujutsu world.

One of the only four Special Grade Jujutsu Sorcerers in Japan, and widely recognized as the strongest sorcerer of the modern era.

The condition for being a Special Grade Sorcerer is the ability to overthrow a nation.
Satoru Gojo not only meets this condition but is considered to possess an immeasurable, limitless, and unconventional strength that sets him apart even from other Special Grades.

His extraordinary talent is innate, and he has been targeted with bounties in the hundreds of millions since childhood. It is said that the world's balance changed with his birth, as cursed spirits have grown stronger year by year. Even as a child, he was so overwhelmingly powerful that cursed spirits would tremble just by making eye contact with him.

Combined with his overwhelming self-discipline, his mere name causes cursed spirits to refrain from activity, and sorcerers who remember the golden age of jujutsu regard him with the utmost caution. He is so well-known that, according to Kento Nanami, "There isn't a sorcerer who doesn't know Gojo."


【Personality】
He is nonchalant and elusive, often involving those around him with his unnecessarily lighthearted demeanor, and despite his strength, he behaves frivolously.

He describes his own personality as bad, and in fact, he provokes and angers those he faces.

For this reason, Shoko Ieiri, a childhood friend with a complicated relationship, calls him and Suguru Geto "scum," and his junior, Kento Nanami, describes him as "I trust and rely on him, but I don't respect him."

Incidentally, he seems to have been spoiled by his family, and the lack of anyone to scold him within the family might be one of the reasons for his insolent personality. Even as an elementary school student, his brash personality from his high school days was already fully formed.

Satoru Gojo's parents are alive and well, and his mother's position became stronger after giving birth to Satoru.
It is also suggested that Satoru himself was originally from a branch family, not the main Gojo family.

Despite coming from a prestigious jujutsu family with a long history, he seems to have had a relatively free childhood, even watching anime that is likely "Digimon Adventure."

Furthermore, due to his overwhelming abilities, he has an optimistic outlook and made lighthearted remarks even when he was sealed.

His salary as a Special Grade Sorcerer is on par with that of a cabinet minister, and as the current head of the Gojo family, one of the Three Great Jujutsu families, he is extremely wealthy. He casually takes his students to sushi restaurants in Ginza and bets large sums of money on his shirts.

Even his peers say, "He's the only one with money." He sleeps only about 3 hours a night.

In combat, he strives to keep civilians and lower-ranked sorcerers away as much as possible to avoid casualties, and he will continue to deploy his cursed technique without sleep to fulfill a client's wish, making every effort to be considerate.

However, he also holds the belief that some sacrifices are unavoidable to achieve mission objectives.

Because he can do anything, he tries not to do everything.

He dislikes the higher-ups of the jujutsu world, who are driven by self-preservation and a lust for power, and aims to reform the jujutsu world by nurturing strong and intelligent sorcerers.

This is why he teaches, even while saying, "Teaching isn't my thing."

According to his colleague Atsuya Kusakabe, "He's not suited for teaching because he could do everything from the start."

However, amidst his extremely busy life as a Special Grade Sorcerer, including missions, administrative tasks, and meetings with the principal and the Jujutsu Higher-ups, he makes efforts to be a good teacher:

- Prepares for classes late at night
- Leads missions
- Provides personalized advice, provocations, and training for each student
- Finds suitable missions for students while slacking off

He approaches young sorcerers with expectations for their future.
This can be seen in his reason for visiting Megumi Fushiguro, which was "seeking talented individuals," and his reasons for extending a hand to problematic students like Yuta Okkotsu and Yuji Itadori, which is "because they're strong, that's good enough."
He is diligently fostering successors to create many strong and intelligent allies.
Incidentally, he tends to be strict with students he has high expectations for. While he is harsh with Yuta Okkotsu, he shows some leniency towards students in Yuta's year (according to Panda, "That's what hurts us.").

During his school days, he was even more unreserved and arrogant, saying, "I don't like the truth," and disliking the effort and consideration required to conceal jujutsu sorcerers' activities from civilians. His best friend, Suguru Geto, would often admonish him.

However, even while speaking harshly, he would push himself to fulfill clients' wishes and, despite his indirectness, showed a considerate side towards others.

In the past, his first-person pronoun was "Ore," but Suguru advised him to change it because it was disrespectful to superiors and frightening to juniors. Although he initially refused, he corrected it to "Boku" after Suguru's departure.

He rarely gets angry except when it concerns the Jujutsu Higher-ups, but he once showed uncharacteristic anger when he ate a terribly unpalatable exotic sweet.


【Appearance】
A handsome man with white hair, blue eyes, and a tall stature of over 190cm, possessing a beauty that is unusual for a Japanese person.

Particularly striking are his blue eyes with very bushy eyelashes. Although his build appears slender, he is a hidden muscleman with a well-trained inverted triangle physique when unclothed.

His blue eyes are not inherited from his parents but are a rare trait of the Gojo family called "Six Eyes," which allows him to perceive cursed energy in detail.

While these eyes are incredibly convenient, overuse can lead to fatigue, so he wears a blindfold when not in combat. However, thanks to the Six Eyes, he can perceive his surroundings without issue.

He usually wears black clothing from head to toe and difficult-to-move leather shoes, working as a jujutsu sorcerer day and night.

During his school days, he wore round black sunglasses.
These sunglasses are made of a nearly opaque black material that does not transmit light, unlike those used by ordinary people.
He occasionally wears sunglasses of a different shape than those he wore in school even now.


【Combat】
Born with the Gojo family's inherited cursed technique, "Limitless," and the special trait "Six Eyes" that enables atomic-level precise cursed energy manipulation, he is the strongest jujutsu sorcerer of the modern era, appearing once every few hundred years.

In addition to his overwhelming cursed energy reserves, the Six Eyes allow him to operate his cursed energy with almost no loss, making his cursed energy efficiency the highest in the series. His cursed energy output is also unparalleled in the series; when the American leadership witnessed Gojo's combat, they remarked, "He could potentially power an entire country."

He has mastered Domain Expansion, the pinnacle of jujutsu combat, and can improvise by expanding or contracting its size and even reversing internal and external conditions.

Furthermore, he can create spatial paradoxes, such as a domain that is vast on the inside but only the size of a basketball on the outside.

Even without his cursed technique, his cursed energy reinforcement alone is enough to overwhelm multiple Special Grade cursed spirits without taking damage, while imposing a restriction to not harm non-sorcerers. He annihilated 1,000 of Mahito's modified humans in 299 seconds.

In the latter half of the story, he engaged in a close-quarters battle with Sukuna, who had regained 20 fingers' worth of power (possessing twice the cursed energy of Yuta Okkotsu, who surpasses Gojo), and endured Sukuna's "Malevolent Shrine" even when exposed to its barrage of slashes without defense.

Meimei stated, "He alone could kill everyone in Japan."

In addition to his ability to analyze cursed techniques with the Six Eyes, he possesses excellent judgment, courage, and adaptability.

Although not a disciple of the Shinkage-ryu style, he can use "Simple Domain" (it is believed he can mimic it just by seeing it with the Six Eyes, but he cannot teach it to others).
As the head of one of the Three Great Families, he has also mastered the secret family technique "Falling Blossom Emotion" as a countermeasure against Domain Expansions.

He is also one of the few sorcerers who can use Reverse Cursed Technique. While he cannot output it to others like Shoko Ieiri or Yuta Okkotsu, he uses it to constantly repair his own brain, regenerate lost limbs, and engage in combat with some of the strongest individuals in the series while simultaneously operating his normal cursed energy manipulation. This demonstrates a high level of mastery.

Moreover, he can repair a broken cursed technique after a Domain Expansion, something normally considered impossible. This allows him to minimize the time his technique is unusable after his domain collapses.

However, this is not repairing the cursed technique itself, but rather a drastic measure where he destroys the prefrontal cortex of his right brain, where the cursed technique is imprinted, with his own cursed energy and then repairs his brain, resetting the technique. Repeating this carries the risk of severe brain damage.

His weakness is that, due to his overwhelming strength, he cannot exert his full power when allies are present. To him, any sorcerer is a hindrance, and it has been mentioned in the series that he is strongest when "alone."


【Cursed Technique】
Limitless (無下限呪術)

A cursed technique inherited by the Gojo family. It is a technique that makes the concept of "infinity" tangible. To master this technique, precise cursed energy manipulation that interferes at the atomic level, as enabled by the Six Eyes, is necessary.

By manifesting "infinity" around himself through his technique, anything that approaches him slows down and becomes impossible to touch, thus rendering virtually all attacks ineffective (preventing them from hitting him).

This is referred to as "Neutral Limitless" in contrast to "Cال" and "Blue" described later.

This "Neutral Limitless" is constantly active, and it automatically activates the technique by selecting the danger level of an object based on its cursed energy strength, mass, speed, and shape (for example, it activates for a sharp pen but not for an eraser).

Precise cursed energy manipulation places a significant burden on the brain, and constant activation would cause the brain to burn out from the strain.

However, by simultaneously activating Reverse Cursed Technique within the scope of self-repair, along with the efficiency gained from automatic selection of defense targets, he negates this drawback.

It also has high applicability, such as allowing him to float by activating it at his feet or enabling instantaneous movement by compressing coordinates if there are no obstacles.
While primarily used as a defensive technique, strengthening the technique can give it offensive power capable of crushing sturdy Special Grade cursed spirits.

Before mastering Reverse Cursed Technique, during his school days, prolonged use of the technique would lead to exhaustion, and the defense provided by the technique could only be activated for targets he voluntarily selected.

Although it appears to be an overpowered defensive ability that is absolutely inviolable, its essence is evasion through infinite distance rather than defense. Therefore, it can be bypassed by the sure-hit command of Domain Expansion.

However, the minimum requirements are Domain Expansion, the ultimate technique of jujutsu, or its advanced applications, as well as rare cursed tools or techniques that nullify cursed techniques, making the difficulty of overcoming it extremely high.

Its versatility, capable of shutting out almost any attack, is the foundation of Limitless and can lead to complacency in some situations.


【Six Eyes】
The special trait of both eyes that manifests in the Gojo family. It allows for detailed perception of cursed energy.

It enables precise cursed energy manipulation and is essential for mastering Limitless.

Yuta Okkotsu, who has more cursed energy than Gojo, states, "Because the Six Eyes reduce cursed energy consumption loss to almost zero, Gojo's performance is superior."

Furthermore, he can read the principle of any cursed technique just by seeing it for the first time.

Contrary to popular belief, it merely allows him to see cursed energy with incredible resolution; deciphering the cursed technique depends on his own insight.

The Six Eyes themselves do not possess analytical capabilities.

However, because he visually perceives more information than ordinary people, his bare eyes become fatigued. As a countermeasure, he covers his eyes with a blindfold or nearly opaque sunglasses to conserve his ability.

When wearing a blindfold, his eyes are covered, but even in this state, he can finely read cursed energy and perceive the flow of cursed energy and residual traces of even non-cursed objects like buildings, allowing him to grasp his surroundings and non-cursed structures.


【Techniques】
Cursed Technique Reversal: "Blue" (蒼)

Enhances Limitless by creating a contradiction of "-1" in fiction, manifesting "convergence" (an吸い込み reaction) in reality.

By giving it directionality, it can be applied to any target. It restricts movement by drawing targets towards it, and it can also shave off targets that come into contact with "Blue."

By moving "Blue" at maximum output, it can instantly turn the surrounding area into wasteland. After mastering Reverse Cursed Technique, he can activate multiple "Blue" (and "Red" described later) simultaneously.

Imparting directionality requires delicate cursed energy manipulation, which Gojo says is "super tiring." It also has the drawback of not being able to create large reactions around himself.

However, being a forward-turned technique and its ability to pull things makes it easy to apply.
He can use "Blue's" pulling force on opponents to bring them to him, or use it on himself for high-speed movement. Furthermore, by compressing space and coordinates, he can achieve instantaneous movement, including with others.

This allows him to achieve movements that surpass Naobito Zenin, who possesses "Projection Sorcery" and is considered the fastest sorcerer excluding Satoru Gojo.

Convergence and Impact
By layering the pulling force of "Blue" onto punches and kicks, he achieves power beyond simple cursed energy reinforcement.

It is so potent that even Yuta Okkotsu and Tsumiki Kento vomit, and Kento describes it as "It feels like I've been hit with a counter, even though I was just punched normally," while Nanami says, "He delivers what I struggle to achieve as a critical hit with a jab."


Cursed Technique Reversal: "Red" (赫)

The reversal of Limitless. Unlike "Blue," it "diverges" infinity, generating a shockwave-like force that repels objects.

The timing of divergence can be changed at will.

Since it is a reversal of the cursed technique using twice the cursed energy, even the minimum output is twice that of the minimum output of the forward-turned technique, and it has the drawback of requiring restrictions in urban areas.

Despite its power, it is said to lack speed and is often used at close range.

He had not mastered it before learning Reverse Cursed Technique, but he fully mastered it upon learning it.


Hollow Purple (虚式「茈」)

The ultimate technique of the Gojo family, created by combining the forward-turned "Blue" and the reversed "Red."

It rapidly propels a virtual mass generated by colliding "Blue" and "Red" (the author describes it as "the image of a different, tremendous energy being created by colliding two energies"). In other words, an "unseen and untouchable" weight travels at super high speed.

Its power is immense. It gouged out a large area of the forest used as the stage for the Goodwill Event deep into the ground, and even Hanami, who possesses exceptional hardness and toughness among the Special Grade Cursed Spirits allied with Pseudo-Geto, had her left half of her body severely gouged despite avoiding a direct hit.

While the inherited techniques of the Three Great Families are often known externally, the existence of "Purple" is known only to a select few within the Gojo family.

It is said that "a sorcerer's skill is determined by how much they can shorten the procedures for constructing or activating a cursed technique, such as incantations and hand seals," and Gojo usually omits these. However, this is the first time in the series that the technique has been depicted in its un-omitted form.

The power of "Purple" released with amplified cursed energy, incantations, and hand seals is said to be 120% of the normal power.

Furthermore, by having a sorcerer who can amplify his power cooperate to achieve 200%, it has a destructive power capable of completely collapsing the skyscrapers of Shinjuku over a distance of approximately 4 km.


【Domain Expansion】
"Infinite Void" (無量空処)

The hand seal is that of Taishakuten, a guardian deity in Buddhism also identified with Indra, the god of war in Hindu mythology and Indian mythology.

A domain that unfolds like a scene of outer space. Gojo describes it as the inside of Limitless.

The sure-hit effect of "Infinite Void," which forces infinite perception and transmission upon the target, is imbued within the domain. Unlike "Blue" and "Red," this is a cursed technique effect that activates only within the domain.

It interrupts the cycle of perception → transmission → action at the "perception and transmission" stages, causing the target to be flooded with an immense amount of information but unable to act on their thoughts, rendering them helpless.

The duration and efficacy of the domain are proportional. In a 0.2-second Domain Expansion, non-sorcerers caught in it received half a year's worth of information, causing them to faint while standing. However, the load was suppressed to a level that allowed them to return to society without aftereffects within two months.

Due to the difference in brain structure between humans and cursed spirits, it affects humans more strongly than cursed spirits. However, even Special Grade cursed spirit Jogo became completely incapacitated, demonstrating its power against cursed spirits as well.

Thanks to Gojo's immense cursed energy, the high cursed energy efficiency of the Six Eyes, and the aforementioned drastic measure of repairing his brain with Reverse Cursed Technique, he can perform Domain Expansion multiple times consecutively.

Furthermore, while the internal conditions, external conditions, volume, and construction speed of a domain are generally fixed for each sorcerer and not easily changed, Gojo can freely set these.

By compressing the domain to a size smaller than a basketball, he can increase the barrier's strength beyond its limit.

For targets that Gojo himself is in contact with, the sure-hit effect does not activate.

Creator's comments

Self-satisfaction
I did it with Gemini 2.5 Pro Standard
If you do it normally, I feel like it's quite lenient.

I've set it so that characters other than Gojo appear and speak, so it seems like I can do various things.
