Although the concept of “the strongest” is a central aspect of most Shonen anime series, very few place such a fundamental emphasis on this title as Jujutsu Kaisen. From the very first episode of the series, the quest for strength and the character of the strongest became an integral part of many of the main characters' story arcs.
As such, there is no shortage of incredibly powerful wizards, curses, and general cursed entities in Jujutsu Kaisen. But despite this, 6 stands above all others as the very pinnacle of strength, to the point where no one can even hope to match them. So let's go through the strongest characters in Jujutsu Kaisen and its subsequent sequels; Module.
Jujutsu Kaisen: 5 strongest physical fighters in the series, ranked
In a series filled with broken and insane techniques, these stand out as the strongest physical fighters in Jujutsu Kaisen.
Honorable Mention: Current Yuji Itadori
-
Sure to be the strongest of all time.
When the original Jujutsu Kaisen ended, Yuji had just awakened his latent potential, allowing him to realize several Cursed Techniques and perfect most applications of Cursed Energy. During the setting of Moduleset 80 years in the future, Yuji is now the one who has inherited his sensei's title as the strongest wizard.
He is also seemingly immortal, meaning that he has had decades to hone his techniques and perfect his strength, which is what makes most fans believe that he is currently much stronger than even Sukuna and Gojo were. However, his lack of screen time makes this impossible to say for sure, so fans will just have to wait and see if Yuji will truly be the strongest of all time.
Dabura Karaba is by all accounts a Sukuna level threat
A terrifying fighter
Jujutsu Kaisen Module was incredible to the fandom as it greatly expanded the series' universe and power scaling. Among the newly introduced aliens was Dabura, their greatest warrior who was so powerful that he was repeatedly portrayed as a Sukuna-level threat. This could even be seen due to how Cursed Speech had no effect on him as he could simply ignore the commands.
Although Dabura has been hyped to be incredibly powerful by the story, fans have started to doubt him after the events of Chapter 18, where he seemed afraid of Mahoraga. But after finding his resolve and smashing Mahoraga's sword, he just unlocked the ability to move near the speed of light, which is something even Gojo and Sukuna couldn't do, so he definitely belongs as one of the strongest Jujutsu Kaisen sign.
Jujutsu Kaisen: 5 Weakest Cursed Techniques In The Culling Game, Ranked
Although the Culling Game had some of the strongest characters in the series, there were some abysmal Cursed Techniques as well.
Kenjaku was an ancient powerhouse and a Jujutsu genius
As strong as he was intelligent
-
The brain behind the Culling Game.
Kenjaku was the one behind the events in the original Jujutsu Kaisen series as the man who had manipulated everything behind the scenes for over 1000 years. Although his true danger lay in his intelligence, Kenjaku's strength was among the greatest in the series as he was a master of Cursed Energy manipulation and possessed multiple Cursed Techniques.
Additionally, Kenjaku was one of the only two characters to ever refine his domain expansion into an open domain, showing just how vast his mastery of Jujutsu truly is. Many believe that Kenjaku might just be able to defeat Yuta Okkotsu as well, although fans are divided on this issue.
Mahoraga is called the Gatekeeper of the Masters
The test for the strongest
As the ultimate ability of the Ten Shadows, Mahoraga has perhaps the most broken power of all Jujutsu Kaisenwhich is the adaptation. With this ability, he was shown to adapt to and break through even Gojo's Infinity, which is the most potent and overwhelmed defense in the entire series, making Mahoraga the ultimate tool anyone has at their disposal.
Yuta may be the only one outside of the very pinnacle of Jujutsu sorcery that can defeat Mahoraga, but it's also only because of his unique toolkit that makes him the perfect counter to it. Since only Sukuna, Gojo, and Yuta have been shown to have the destructive firepower to defeat the Shikigami, it is safe to place Mahoraga as the fourth strongest character/figure in the series.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Every student of Satoru Gojo, Ranked
Gojo has taught many notable Jujutsu wizards, so let's rank them from weakest to strongest.
Yuta Okkotsu has the largest cursed energy reserves ever
Even more than Gojo
On the other hand, many believe that Yuta is even stronger than Kenjaku due to his overwhelming reserves of Cursed Energy and absolutely broken innate Cursed Technique. With Copy, Yuta has access to hundreds of cursed techniques that he has encountered during his time as a wizard, making him immensely powerful.
Although Mahoraga is seen as a tough stop to almost anyone in the world, Yuta is the only wizard perfectly equipped to deal with him due to the many techniques he has, along with his Love Beam and Rika being able to obliterate him. Although it is a controversial issue among fans, many believe that Yuta was able to beat Kenjaku and that he didn't really need Takaba to do so.
Gojo was the strongest of the modern era for a reason
The Boundless Wizard
Even with the unbridled power of everyone else on this list, simply none of them can even hope to compete against the two strongest characters in the series. The first of these is Gojo, who is only slightly weaker than Sukuna and by far the only person who can even significantly damage a fully powered Sukuna, showing that these two are far above everyone else.
Although Gojo is not the only person in history to have been born with Limitless and Six Eyes, he is by far the greatest user of these techniques due to how he was able to take on the King of Curses and how creatively he managed to use his abilities.
5 Things Jujutsu Kaisen Does Better Than Any Other Shonen Anime
Jujutsu Kaisen is one of the most popular anime right now, and these are some of the biggest reasons why it stands out.
Sukuna was the greatest Jujutsu user of all time
The Strongest
At the end of the day, regardless of which fans line up against Sukuna in hypothetical battles, the winner will always be the King of Curses. Aside from him, Gojo is the only one who has ever shown such mastery over Cursed Energy and his own technique, and even then, Sukuna managed to defeat the Six Eyes wizard, cementing himself as the greatest Jujutsu user of all time.
Sukuna had everything that makes a powerful character, with exceptional command of all aspects of Jujutsu, multiple overpowered Cursed Techniques, unparalleled knowledge and experience of Cursed Energy, and an unwavering mindset that made him the strongest wizard of all time. Had he not faced the strongest wizard in the modern era, and then faced every person on the side of the heroes, Sukuna would never have lost.
Jujutsu Kaisen can be streamed on Crunchyroll and Netflix.
