Get to know how Satoru Gojo’s Limitless technique works in Jujutsu Kaisen and why it makes him the series’ strongest sorcerer.
In Jujutsu Kaisen, Satoru Gojo’s presence makes cursed spirits tremble and fellow sorcerers marvel. But what is so special about him? The answer lies in his inherited technique called Limitless, a power that brings the concept of infinity into reality.
The Limitless Technique is a complex cursed technique passed down through the Gojo clan, but Satoru Gojo is the first person in 400 years to be born with both the Limitless and the Six Eyes. This combination has made him the strongest jujutsu sorcerer in Jujutsu Kaisen‘s modern era. In the sections below, we will break down this fascinating power system and understand how it makes Gojo nearly invincible.
The Fundamentals of Infinity in Gojo’s Base Defense
When you watch Jujutsu Kaisen, you might notice that nothing ever seems to touch Gojo. That’s because the base state of his Limitless Technique, called Infinity, creates an invisible barrier that divides space infinitely. Think of it like this: before reaching Gojo, an attack must cross the space between itself and him. The Limitless Technique divides this space into infinite smaller spaces, making it impossible for anything to actually reach him.
The Infinity automatically detects threats and lets harmless things like oxygen pass through while stopping attacks. This selective barrier is crucial because, without it, Gojo would suffocate from lack of oxygen. During the Hidden Inventoryarc in Jujutsu Kaisen, we learn that Gojo was still perfecting this aspect of his technique, particularly when it came to filtering out poisonous substances while letting in breathable air. The barrier can also be expanded to create a protective dome around Gojo, as we saw when he defended against Jogo’s volcanic attacks. When necessary, Gojo can even increase the barrier’s output to actively crush opponents.
However, the Infinity isn’t completely impenetrable in Jujutsu Kaisen. There are specific cursed tools designed to neutralize cursed techniques that can bypass this defense. We saw this during Gojo’s fight with Toji Fushiguro in the Hidden Inventory arc, where Toji managed to wound Gojo using an inverted spear of heaven. Similar events occurred during Gojo’s battle with Miguel in Jujutsu Kaisen 0.
Blue and Red: The Dual Forces of Limitless
The Limitless Technique in Jujutsu Kaisen isn’t just about defense—it has powerful offensive capabilities too. The first is Blue, or “Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue,” which creates an attractive force by converging space to a single point. When Gojo uses Blue, it manifests as an azure sphere that can pull anything toward it with devastating force. He can use it to crush opponents, create high-speed movement, or even clear entire areas.
The second force is Red, or “Cursed Technique Reversal: Red,” which does the opposite—it creates a repulsive force by diverging space. Red requires positive energy, making it much more complex to use than Blue. To generate Red, Gojo must multiply negative energy by negative energy to create positive energy, a concept that’s simple in theory but incredibly difficult in practice. When activated, it appears as a crimson sphere that can blast opponents away with explosive force.
However, in Jujutsu Kaisen, we’ve seen that Red doesn’t always cause significant damage to powerful opponents. For instance, when used against Jogo and Toji, it mainly served to push them back rather than cause serious injury.
Both techniques require precise cursed energy control, which is why having the Six Eyes is crucial. Blue, in particular, can be quite taxing to use repeatedly. We see this limitation in action during various fights throughout Jujutsu Kaisen. The teleportation aspect of Blue is particularly demanding—for non-sorcerers, even being touched by this high-speed movement technique would feel like being hit by a truck.
Purple The Ultimate Collision in Jujutsu Kaisen
In Jujutsu Kaisen, when Gojo combines Blue and Red, he creates something even more devastating—Purple, also known as “Hollow Technique: Purple.” This technique is so secret that only a few members of the Gojo clan even know about its existence. When Blue’s convergence and Red’s divergence collide, they create an imaginary mass that obliterates anything in its path. The destructive power of Purple is far beyond what either Blue or Red can achieve independently. We’ve seen it when Gojo used it to clear an entire forest in one shot during the Goodwill Event.
When Gojo deployed Purple against Toji Fushiguro, it completely destroyed his left side, leading to his death. Similarly, when used against Hanami, another formidable curse, it had equally devastating effects. Unlike Blue, which attracts, or Red, which repels, Purple simply annihilates everything in its path.
When positive and negative infinity collide, they create something that shouldn’t exist—an imaginary mass. Despite its complex nature, one thing remains clear in Jujutsu Kaisen: when Gojo uses Purple, it signals the end of most fights.
Six Eyes the Power Behind the Limitless
The Six Eyes make the Limitless Technique unstoppable in Jujutsu Kaisen. While other members of the Gojo clan might possess the Limitless Technique, only those born with both Limitless and Six Eyes can master its full potential. This combination is so rare that Satoru Gojo is the first person in 400 years to possess both abilities.
The Six Eyes provide several crucial advantages. First, they allow Gojo to use cursed techniques with nearly zero energy loss, effectively giving him an infinite supply of cursed energy. They also grant him the ability to see cursed energy in incredibly high definition, even through his blindfold. This vision is so precise that Gojo can detect objects with no cursed energy by observing the residual energy flow around them.
The power of the Six Eyes is considered so dangerous that throughout history, certain characters have gone to extreme lengths to prevent their existence. In Jujutsu Kaisen, we learn that Kenjaku once killed a child simply because they were born with the Six Eyes. The ability is so rare that only one Six Eyes user can exist at a time, which is why Kenjaku chose to seal Gojo rather than kill him in the modern era. He wanted to prevent another Six Eyes user from being born. This limitation makes Gojo not just powerful but irreplaceable in the jujutsu world.
Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void
The ultimate expression of the Limitless Technique in Jujutsu Kaisen comes in the form of Gojo’s Domain Expansion—Unlimited Void. When activated, this technique traps opponents in an infinite space where they’re forced to process an endless amount of information. The Unlimited Void overloads the target’s brain with infinite information about everything. Even a 0.2-second exposure to this domain was enough to stun powerful cursed spirits like Jogo, Mahito, and Choso.
There’s no way to defend against its effects—you can’t block infinite information. Once caught in it, the target experiences everything and nothing simultaneously, leading to complete mental paralysis. Other domains might have sure-hit effects like slashes or physical attacks that you could potentially guard against. But how do you defend against an infinite stream of information flooding your consciousness?
The sheer potency of Unlimited Void is demonstrated multiple times throughout Jujutsu Kaisen. During the Shibuya Incident, Gojo activated his domain for just 0.2 seconds, yet its effects lingered long after it closed. This brief exposure was enough to paralyze multiple special-grade curses, showing why it’s considered the strongest domain in the series.
Conclusion
In Jujutsu Kaisen, we see why the Limitless Technique earned Satoru Gojo his reputation as the strongest jujutsu sorcerer. The technique’s complexity, combined with the Six Eyes’ perfect control, creates an almost unbeatable combination. Breaking down the Limitless Technique helps us appreciate not just Gojo’s strength but also the intricate world-building.
