Satoru Gojo
Satoru Gojo (Japanese: 五条 悟, Hepburn: Gojō Satoru), often known as The Honored One, is a fictional character from Gege Akutami's manga and anime series Jujutsu Kaisen. He was first introduced in Akutami's short series Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School as the mentor of the cursed teenager Yuta Okkotsu, who suffers from Rika's curse. This miniseries became the prequel Jujutsu Kaisen 0 of Jujutsu Kaisen. In the main series of Jujutsu Kaisen, Gojo takes the same role but instead mentors student Yuji Itadori who suffers a curse of Sukuna, helping him become stronger while protecting other characters in the series.
Gojo was designed by Akutami to be a formidable yet endearing figure who is passionate about his students. He is voiced by Yūichi Nakamura in Japanese, Kaiji Tang in English and Lohit Sharma in Hindi in the animated adaptations by MAPPA. The character garnered positive reception by the media for his carefree nature and power shown when protecting his students, becoming the series' breakout character.
Akutami's key idea for Gojo's design was a blindfold he could see through due to his supernatural powers. His Six Eyes bear extrasensory powers, granting him the intensified ability to manipulate, see and read cursed energy, as well as amplify his own technique, Limitless. In his debut in Jujutsu Kaisen 0, Akutami linked Gojo and Yuta Okkotsu to Michizane Sugawara, a famous figure in Japanese history, which he described as the source of both characters' supernatural powers. This was done as a tribute to his late editor, Yamanaka. Gojo's design is intended to be one of a bishonen. His facial design was inspired by major Naruto character Tonbo Tobitake. In regards to Gojo's relationship with his students such as Yuji Itadori and Yuta Okkotsu, Akutami wrote their relationship simply, as he claims Gojo only wants troublemakers like them to become strong. Despite the Japanese custom of calling individuals by last names, he refers to his students by their first names. Akutami said he made this decision because he thought that Gojo did not have proper considerations for such social traditions.
Sunghoo Park, the director of Jujutsu Kaisen's first season as well as Jujutsu Kaisen 0, said adapting one of Gojo's early scenes involving the Domain Expansion scene in the season was particularly tough to produce. Nevertheless, he saw it as memorable. Since the original scene was black-and-white, Park and his team consulted Akutami for guidance on color design from Gojo's Domain Expansion. In regards to the animated movie, Park stated that, while "the highlight of the movie is of course, the story of Okkotsu and Rika as the main characters of Jujutsu Kaisen 0", he also wanted to focus on more characters from the manga, most notably of which being the past relationship between Gojo and Geto, which was covered briefly in the original manga. Seko was requested by the director to feature a new fight scene between Gojo and Miguel in the climax.
The song "Where Our Blue Is" by Tatsuya Kitani, which acts as the opening of the anime's second season, depicts the youth of Gojo and Geto alongside an emphasis on blue backgrounds. The opening contrasts the ending theme "Light", which uses a more relaxed melody while emphasizing Gojo and Geto's friendship.
He is voiced by Yuichi Nakamura in the original Japanese series. From serious scenes to comical gag scenes, Gojo has different facial expressions, but since Nakamura played without restrictions on the swing range, he reiterated at the recording site that he enjoyed gags. The actor did not find a change in Gojo's characterization, finding his mentoring of Yuta similar to the other protagonists from the main Jujutsu Kaisen series. He enjoyed the recording sessions he had, as well as the many school-like relationships. He was impressed by Megumi Ogata's work as Yuta for providing him with a large range of emotions. Mariya Ise voiced the younger Gojo in a flashback from the anime. Nakamura claimed he struggled in properly portraying Gojo for the anime's second season due to the two story arcs depicting the same character with different quirks and personality as a result of his age. The voice actor was impressed by the animation studio Mappa which allowed his character to have more facial expressions which resulted in more direction from his superiors.
Kaiji Tang voices Satoru in English. Tang described him as one of "the trolliest trolls to ever troll anime." He noted that the character stands out due to his "whimsical" nature and how he interacts with his students. He was also praised for how likeable he comes across, due to the kind nature he portrays in the series with a dark narrative while simultaneously showing interesting supernatural powers. Tang still noted that Gojo's arrogance was his only weak point, which also makes him come across as more human.
In another interview, Tang compared Gojo to comic book character Clark Kent, believing the charm behind the character was that, despite his age, Gojo acts like a spoiled child. Before dubbing Gojo, Tang had not read the Jujutsu Kaisen manga but had heard of it. When cast, Tang did research by reading the manga. When first interacting with Yuji Itadori, Gojo is noted to see a rarely-explored darker side of his personality due to how he thinks of the idea of killing a cursed teenager, which leads him to see more arrogance in Gojo. In contrast to his previous works like Gearless Joe from Megalobox or Archer from Fate/stay night, Tang feels that Gojo looks at the world in a more childish way than his previous characters; while Gojo has seen several challenges in his past, none of them made a major impact on him. In order to lipsync the character, Tang ended up ad-libbing, resulting in Gojo swearing when confronting Jogo.
