Jujutsu Kaisen creator Gege Akutami has answered several questions about Gojo, including his sole complex in life.
WhileGojois portrayed as a happy-go-lucky guy most of the time inJujutsu Kaisen, his reality is more tragic than we thought. Born as thestrongest modern-era sorcerer, his role has been predestined and he’s treated more as a weapon than a person by almost everyone.
The tragedy of his life finds more depth when Akutami reveals hisdistant relationship with his parentsand his lonely childhood in the Gojo clan. If that wasn’t sad enough, he also shares how Gojo doesn’t have any complexes – except his failure to stopGeto.
In the recent Q&A session, the creator was asked if Gojo has any complexes. To this, Gege Akutamireplied: “Probably not. If I had to say it would probably be him unable to stop Geto.”
This confirms that the one thing that troubles Gojo the most is his inability to prevent his best friend from becoming a mass murderer, which ultimately leads to his doom. What makes this more painful is when we remember Gojo is the one who kills Geto in the end.
While fans understand the beloved character better now, they’re also heartbroken about this revelation. As one fanpostedon X, “Gojo’s only regret is not stopping Geto… I AM LITERALLY GONNA CRY”
“Gojo, the strongest born with Six Eyes and Infinity but his only complex is not being able to stop Geto…”sharedanother.
“Dude this stuck with me. Geto is his biggest regret,” a thirdcommented.
A fourthwrote: “So many fights about Gojo’s complexes and insecurities only for Gege to come out and say that Gojo’s only complex is not being able to save Geto.”
