Is Yuta Okkotsu Stronger Than Satoru Gojo?
After Yuta’s introduction in the Manga, this has been a raging question new as well as old fans. Is Yuta Okkotsu Stronger than Satoru Gojo?
And believe me or not, the community/fanbase is split between these two insanely powerful beast! Correct me if I’m wrong, but if Gojo and Yuta goes all out they would completely annihilate everything that’s negative and ominous!
Hence, I thought to write this post to not only answer my questions, but also try to find out which among the two is stronger!
Let’s dive in then…
SPOILERS AHEAD!!
Physical Strength
Satoru Gojo’s physical strength is not a secret and was revealed when he fought Jogo. Gojo’s physical strength is at par with most sorcerers because of his “Infinite Technique.” No only he has enormous physical strength, his infinite technique makes his body literally untouchable. Which gives him an unfair advantage over his enemies.
You can say the only time when Gojo sensei is vulnerable to physical attacks is when he is weak or when he has dropped the barrier surrounding him. The reason behind this can be may, but, the sole reason is weakness.
On the other hand, we have Yuta, who, even though is not as physically rigid, does have considerable strength. Where Yuta excels is not physical power but Cursed Energy Manipulation.
In addition to that, Okkotsu is a swordsman, and, as most swordsperson are, he is strong, but, when he is compared to Gojo, the difference is too huge.
Curse Energy
Though, Gojo can trample Okkotsu in Physical prowess, they have a though competition when the comparison is between Curse Energy. As I said before, Gojo’s Curse Energy is theoretically limitless and that makes him nearly invincible, but, Yuta’s Curse Energy has a different dimension of power.
On top of how much energy he possess, Yuta is also possessed by a Cursed Spirit who happens to be his childhood friend, Rika.
Rika, as a Cursed Spirit is so powerful that Geto called her “Queen of Curses.” And Rika’s continuous presence gives Yuta a supply of unlimited curse energy!
In the manga, Panda, Inumaki and Maki felt an extremely strong presence of something that was more ominous and intimidating than Gojo, it was Yuta Okkotsu.
If he contains such intense aura while only a student, it’s evident that in future when he reaches Gojo’s age, his mere presence will be powerful enough to scare most Curses away. Or many the opposite would happen where he would easily control Rika and not waste her curse energy.
Domain Expansion
Undeniably, Satoru Gojo possess one of the most deadly Domain Expansion, only standing behind Sukuna’s Malevolent Shrine. Only few people in Jujtusu Kaisen are capable of using this master technique, and that too they can only use it when they have complete mastery over their own Cursed Technique.
That means sorcerers like Nanami, Maki, can never have their own Domain Expansion. To simply say, the people who can manipulate cursed energy and eventually gain mastery over it can use Domain Expansion. That’s why Gojo said that it’s the “Pinnacle of Jujutsu World.”
Yuta on the other hand uses a sword. Yes, he has enormous amount of Curse Energy, but, a sword is his primary weapon. Yuta has finally unleashed his Domain Expansion but hasn’t yet revealed the name…
His Domain Expansion is basically copying other techniques and using it without issues!
Strengths & Weaknesses
It doesn’t matter whether he/she is an average sorcerer or an elite one, everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. In this case too, both of these elite sorcerers have strengths and weaknesses.
SORCERER | STRENGTH | WEAKNESS |
Satoru Gojo | Six-Eyes, Infinite Technique, Domain Expansion, Almost Limitless Cursed Energy, Physical Prowess. | Lacks when it comes to hardcore Physical Attacks. Vulnerable without the invisible shield. |
Yuta Okkotsu | Unparalleled Cursed Energy, Master Swordsman(Maki trained him). | A bit emotional. He cannot see his friends getting hurt! |
Funfact About Okkotsu & Gojo
After all these serious comparison, here is a fun-fact about Okkotsu and Gojo.
If you don’t know, Okkotsu is a distant relative of Satoru Gojo. Though, this is irrelevant, we can now understand the massive energy source that Yuta carries with him.
Will Gojo’s Prophecy Come True?
The title may look intriguing, but, even you know this prophecy if you have watched the anime or read the manga.
Gojo’s prophecy was that the present generation will one day surpass him not only in terms of strength, but in techniques too.
And, in recent chapters, we have clearly seen this happening. The fact that one sorcerer sensed Yuta’s presence as more strong than Gojo’s is more than enough to verify this.
Also, Itadori and Nobara are only first years and they are already using Black Flash. We should also not forget about Megumi, who can already unleash Domain Expansion.
Overall, we can say that Okkotsu is close to Gojo in terms of power and technique and in the future may even surpass him in overall strength. What do you think? Can Okkotsu surpass Gojo sensei?
