Jujutsu Kaisen: Gege Reveals A New Sorcerer That Can Beat Gojo Satoru

by

This article contains spoilers from Jujutsu Kaisen‘s Shinjuku Showdown Arc.

Readers of “Jujutsu Kaisen” are well-aware that author Gege Akutami isn’t hesitant to introduce potent characters in his narrative, even at later stages. During the Culling Game storyline, Gege unveiled a host of thrilling characters, some of whom have swiftly become cherished by fans.

Simultaneously, Gege unveiled some characters with tremendous promise, one of whom might possibly overcome the most powerful modern sorcerer in the entire tale, Gojo Satoru. Under favorable conditions, this sorcerer could challenge anyone, potentially even defeating Sukuna. Contrary to popular belief, it’s not Yuji Itadori who holds this potential, but rather Fumihiko Takaba, as confirmed by the author.

Gege Confirms Takaba Has The Most Broken Cursed Technique

Takaba Can Defeat Even Gojo If He Mastered His Powers

  • He possesses the Comedian cursed technique
  • He can’t fully control his powers

Gege Akutami unveiled Takaba’s immense powers back during the Culling Game arc of Jujutsu Kaisen, and it turns out that Takaba possesses an extremely potent cursed technique known as Comedian. Although this ability may appear somewhat strange at first glance, it’s actually incredibly overpowered. In fact, it could be argued that among all the cursed techniques in the entire series, none are more broken than Takaba’s Comedian.

Takaba-san would never kill, so someone else had to do it. — Yuta Okkotsu about Takaba

In simpler terms, Takaba possesses a unique ability where anything he finds humorous has the power to materialize in reality. He essentially brings comedic situations to life and can shape these scenarios according to his whims. For instance, he can heal instantly without needing Reverse Cursed Techniques, effortlessly defeat opponents, or alter his surroundings at will – as long as it strikes him as amusing.

Gege himself commented on Takaba’s ability recently, and here’s what he had to say:

Could the character named Comedian (Superhuman) be malfunctioning or not functioning optimally? If so, could he reset the progress, similar to how one restarts a game?

A: It’s not as broken as that since Takaba is the one using it.

It appears that Gege believes Takaba’s abilities aren’t extremely powerful in their current state, but Gege makes it clear that the limitation on these powers not being able to perform extraordinary feats like saving progress and restarting after death is due to Takaba himself, who is not fully aware of his power’s capabilities. If someone else were using this technique, it could be invincible.

Takaba Has The Potential To Become The World’s Strongest Sorcerer

His Potential Rivals Gojo And Sukuna

If Takaba eventually masters the potent Comedian Cursed Technique, it’s reasonable to conclude that he could potentially rise to become the most powerful sorcerer globally. It’s worth noting that even Gojo Satoru and Sukuna might struggle to match his strength in such a scenario. Even Yuji Itadori, currently projected as the strongest sorcerer, and Yuta Okkotsu seem less formidable in comparison.

It’s great news that Takaba is still alive, and should the story of Jujutsu Kaisen continue, fans are eager to see more of him, possibly with his cursed technique at its peak. If this happens, a sorcerer stronger than even Gojo and Sukuna would have undeniably emerged.

Right now, Jujutsu Kaisen ranks as one of the most popular shonen series globally. The manga, which concluded towards the end of 2024, can be read online without cost. You can find it on Manga Plus, a platform where the series was previously released weekly. As for the anime adaptation, there have been two seasons so far, and fans are anxiously anticipating the third one. For now, both seasons are accessible on Crunchyroll.
