In addition to being two Shōnen Jumpgreatest manga, one of the similarities between Jujutsu Kaisenand Dragon Ball it’s in their power systems – both series feature characters with innate abilities that allow them to accomplish extraordinary feats. It is through this similarity that Dragon Ball offers a plausible explanation for Jujutsu Kaisenmost controversial moment. Just over a year ago, Jujutsu Kaisen fans finally got the fight they’ve been waiting for since the start of the series. Satoru Gojo – the greatest sorcerer in the world, faced Ryomen Sukuna – the greatest sorcerer of all time.
Interestingly, the fight corresponded to the enthusiasm that had been steadily growing over the six years since the first meeting. The fight lasted ten chapters and several months “in real time”. But then, in the blink of an eye, Sukuna killed Gojo – just like that. Using an unprecedented attack that cuts through space and time, Sukuna infiltrated Gojo’s Infinity technique and cut him – literally – in half. It was a shocking ending for one of the greatest characters in manga and anime history.

The way Sukuna killed Gojo is not as bizarre as previously thought.
Naturally, fans were shocked by Gojo’s death and more than a little skeptical about how it happened. Gojo’s defeat was all the more impressive because he was dominating the battle and had activated his Infinity Technique – his self-defense system that has been heavily touted throughout the series as being immune to anything. However, Sukuna’s fatal blow defied the fundamental laws of nature, surpassing even the extraordinary abilities of modern Jujutsu sorcery. This move was unprecedented and contradicted the rules of the series’ magical world. As a result, many fans felt that Gojo’s death was an undeserved and unsatisfying plot twist, leaving the impression that the creator had lost interest in the story.
To type Dragon Ball Super: Brolythe 2018 film that delves into the story of the mythical Super Saiyan Broly. In the film, after failing to defeat Broly alone, Goku and Vegeta decide that their most effective strategy is to fuse their abilities in a fusion attack. Once merged, the new entity, Gogeta, confronts Broly with unprecedented ferocity. In their battle, Gogeta and Broly reach unimaginable levels of power, causing chaos in the universe. Their fierce exchanges are so intense that they repeatedly tear the fabric of the space-time continuum. Dragon BallThe Broly-Gogeta fight illustrates that the idea of Sukuna’s multidimensional attack is neither new nor surprising for characters operating at such high levels of specialization, skill, and power.

Sukuna’s attacks were so strong that they could break the laws of physics that protected Gojo
Broly proves that Sukuna’s attack isn’t as far-fetched as Jujutsu Kaisen fans can believe. Just like the fight between Gojo and Sukuna, the battle between Gogeta and Broly also left more than a few doubts about the characters’ ability to reach such unbelievable heights that they could break the laws of nature. In Brolythe suggestion is that such feats are expected of those who have reached the pinnacle of strength and ability. To avoid defeat or death, Broly and Gogeta kept increasing their power level until the impossible became possible. The film demonstrated that when powerful characters in a manga face each other, space and time are nothing more than props to be manipulated at their will.
In his fight with Gojo, Sukuna was just minutes away from being destroyed. Like Broly and Gogeta, he had to attempt the impossible – something only a sorcerer of his skill could have done. Despite not knowing if his technique would work, he couldn’t blame himself for losing to a sorcerer of Gojo’s caliber. The most intriguing question – however – is why Gojo failed to anticipate Sukuna’s attack. Once again, the Broly-Gogeta fight offers insight: it highlights Gojo’s lack of understanding of Sukuna’s abilities – just as Gogeta failed to understand Broly’s abilities. Gojo, like Gogeta, should have predicted that at such high levels of power, the victor would need to transcend ordinary fighting or sorcery skills. It’s a misunderstanding that led to Broly’s catastrophic rampage in Dragon Ball and Gojo’s death in Jujutsu Kaisen.
