“ | I have a dream. [...] As they made clear with Yuji, the higher-ups are the scum of the Jujutsu world. Selfish idiots, bloodline idiots, proud idiots- Just plain idiots! I'm gonna reset... this crappy Jujutsu world! It'd be easy to kill everyone who's in charge. But someone else would just take their place. Nothing would change. And it's not as if people approve of massacres anyway... So that's why I'm turning to education. I need strong and intelligent allies. I need to foster them! | „ |

(Can see through a person's Cursed Technique and determine its functions and can identify souls in a body), Matter Manipulation (Six Eyes allows for the precise manipulation of Cursed Energy at the atomic level to manipulate space), Spatial Manipulation, Mathematics Manipulation & Forcefield Creation via Limitless (Limitless grants the user control over space, requiring precise control of Cursed Energy at an atomic level. By manifesting the naturally occurring infinity into reality, Gojo can converge space as an infinite series of fractions, causing objects that approach him to slow down and never reach their target, infinite amounts of finite space separating them causes the opponent will never touch Satoru due to the infinity between them), Physics Manipulation, Gravity Manipulation & Probability Manipulation (Cursed Technique Reversal: Blue; By amplifying the amount of Curse Energy poured into Limitless, thus bringing negative numbers and negative distance to reality and forcing everything toward the impossibility like a force of attraction), Sleep Manipulation (Can put people to sleep), Flight (Shown be able to fly), Regeneration (Mid; Used Reverse Cursed Technique to return from the verge of death.

Resistance to Temperature Manipulation & Fire Manipulation (Unaffected in Jogo's Domain which can burn down average sorcerers), Time Stop (Unaffected by Prison Realm which has no time inside there)
Attack Potency: Likely Small Town level, possibly higher (Satoru Gojo was considered the peak of Grade 1 alongside Suguru Geto. Grade 1 is the minimum grade needed to defeat a Special Grade Curse. Although inferior, his strength is highly regarded by Toji, who chose to wear him down and ambush him rather than attack him head-on), higher with Blue & with Incantations (Performing the incantations of a technique raises its output) | At least Large Town level (After realizing the core of Cursed Energy, he became the strongest sorcerer by a significantly wider margin and was considered a monster by Toji), higher with Blue & with Incantations, far higher with Red (Red outputs more than twice as much energy as Blue), even higher with Purple (Expunged the left side of Toji) | At least City level (Casually overpowered Miguel in hand-to-hand combat and it was stated by Gege that Miguel is strong in the databook), higher with Blue & with Incantations, higher with Red, far higher with Black Flash, even higher with Purple | At least Mountain level, likely Island level (Satoru Gojo is the strongest sorcerer of the Modern Age, with his only rival being a fully reconstituted Sukuna, who was the strongest sorcerer in history. Kenjaku had to create strategy to seal Gojo because he couldn't defeat him and casually overpowered Jogo. Superior to 15 Fingers Sukuna. Gojo's power generated an earthquake upon his release from the Prison Realm at the subduction zone. Is stated that Gojo can overthrown a country such as China and US), higher with Blue & with Incantations, far higher with Red (Red outputs more than twice as much energy as Blue. Red can destroy Mahoraga and the Eight-Handled Wheel in a single shot), even higher with Purple (Destroyed numerous buildings and blew off both of Full Power Sukuna's arms when its output was raised to 200%. Destroyed a large section of Shinjuku after amplifying Purple with incantations, grievously harming Sukuna and completely destroying Mahoraga), higher with Unlimited Void (Domain Expansion increases the stats of the user. While amped by Unlimited Void, Gojo dealt severe damage to Sukuna, who can endure Red to the face while amped by Malevolent Shrine), far higher with Black Flash (Knocked Sukuna unconscious with a gut punch)

Lifting Strength: At least Class M (Toji is wary of Gojo's strength), up to Class G with Blue (Maximum Output: Blue crushed the ground around him) | At least Class M, likely far higher (Inconceivably stronger than before. Thrashed Sukuna around Shinjuku. Effortlessly overpowered Jogo. Effortlessly overpowered Jogo. Even when using less Cursed Energy to the point of his raw physical strength being a notable factor, he overpowered Jogo, tearing off his arm twice, and casually tore Hanami's branches from her body), up to Class G with Blue
Striking Strength: Small Town level | At least Large Town level, likely far higher (Far stronger than before), even higher with Purple | At least City level (Far stronger than before) | At least Mountain level, likely Island level (Repeatedly damaged Sukuna.

Durability: At least Small Town level (As the peak of Grade 1, he is above sorcerers such as Nanami, Todo, and Yuji) | At least Large Town level (Comparable to his Attack Potency) | At least City level (Comparable to his Attack Potency) | At least Mountain level, likely Island level (Fought on par with and withstood numerous hits from True Power Sukuna. Satoru Gojo is demonstrated to have exceptionally high durability, despite rarely being hit by anything throughout the series due to Infinity. He is the only individual to ever withstand Malevolent Shrine—which endlessly slashes at everything in it-enduring thousands of instances of Cleave and Dismantle amplified, meaning Gojo's durability can handle even slashes amplified beyond maximum output. Satoru even endured his own unrestricted Purple that was amplified by incantations, though he was less affected by it due to it being his own Cursed Energy), higher with Unlimited Void (Gojo can exchange strikes with Sukuna while both are amped by Domain Expansion)
Stamina: Superhuman (It is stated by Yuta that Gojo's expense of Cursed Energy is infinitesimally close to zero due to the Six Eyes, allowing him to effectively never run out of Curse Energy, even compared to Yuta, whose Cursed Energy reserve is larger than that of Gojo and described by others as boundless in relation to their own)

Standard Equipment: None notable
Intelligence: Genius in full scale intelligence and comba
t (Satoru is a natural genius, being able to do anything he tries. His talent is held in high regard even in the new generation, to the point that brilliant characters like Hiromi Higuruma are compared to him. Even as a child, he completed the basics of Jujutsu training and regularly fought Cursed Spirits. With only mere records to work with, Satoru was able to learn to control and master the Limitless technique, which is a troublesome effort even for those who bear the Six Eyes. At a young age, he was able to unlock the ability to expand his innate domain, even with his technique being complex and incredibly difficult to handle. Satoru is quite tactical and capable of figuring out his opponent's plan with minimum information. He has also shown to be extremely adaptable to any enemy he has ever faced so far, knowing precisely what to do to counter their techniques and find ways to defeat them. Satoru is among the greatest hand-to-hand combatants in the series, if not the best. He was also responsible for teaching and helping Yuji grow in fighting skills, curse manipulation, and personal development. Additionally, he is the first in a hundred years to wield both the Six-Eyes and the Limitless Cursed Technique)
Weaknesses: Gojo experiences a burn-out period after a Domain Expansion in which he is unable to use Limitless in any capacity. Restoring his burnt-out Domain Expansion by damaging his brain with Cursed Energy and then healing it using Reverse Cursed Technique risks death, and he reaches his limit after doing so five times against Sukuna. Purple is less effective when fired from a long distance.
Notable Attacks and Techniques:
- Six Eyes (Rikugan): Six Eyes is the unique ocular feature that is exclusive to the Gojo clan, and it endows Satoru with exceptional vision and awareness. Even while wearing a blindfold, the bearer can perceive their surroundings in exquisite detail. Furthermore, this feature confers exceptional cognitive abilities, allowing Satoru's mind to operate at a distinctively accelerated pace relative to the external world. This permits him to execute multiple Cursed Techniques subconsciously with unparalleled proficiency and to make astute deductions in a split second, as demonstrated by his ability to discern that the current Geto is an imposter by mentally reviewing three years' worth of memories in an instant. The Six Eyes' perception extends to Cursed Energy as well, allowing Gojo to see Cursed Energy in extreme detail. As such he can see the flow of Cursed Energy, which in turn allows him to read another person's Cursed Techniques and differentiate between different types of Cursed Energy and help him identify a person based on their Cursed Energy and Cursed Techniques alone. The Six Eyes also processes Gojo's Cursed Energy incredibly efficiently, so much so that the amount of Cursed Energy lost when he activates a technique is infinitesimally close to zero. Due to this, he will never run out of Cursed Energy and can execute and maintain multiple cursed techniques indefinitely.
- Limitless (Mukagen): An inherited technique passed down in the Gojo clan. It manipulates space to produce "impossibilities" for various effects at his command. With his Six Eyes, Satoru can utilize this technique to its fullest potential.
- Infinity (Mugen): The "neutral" form of the Limitless technique. It mirrors the mathematical concept of infinite fractions between two numbers. Just as there are endless fractions like 1.10, 1.12, etc., between the numbers 1 and 2 that never actually reach 2, Gojo creates a space of infinite "fractions" between himself and his opponents. This renders any attack against him incapable of making contact, much like the never-ending sequence of numbers never concludes. Enhanced by The Six Eyes, Gojo can fine-tune this "Infinity" according to various attributes like mass, speed, shape, and Cursed Energy. He can even control it at the atomic level, allowing simple chemical entities like oxygen to pass through, thus enabling him to breathe. After battling Toji Fushiguro, Satoru ensures that Infinity runs automatically. He combines it with the Reverse Cursed Technique to recuperate his brain condition, all while losing an amount of Cursed Energy that is infinitesimally close to zero. This meticulous energy management allows him to sustain the techniques almost indefinitely.
- Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue (Jutsushiki Junten・Ao): By amplifying the negative energy of Limitless, he creates a force of attraction at a chosen point in space. Everything around this point is drawn to it, and Gojo can move this point at will, attracting objects and opponents alike.
- Cursed Technique Lapse - Maximum Output: Blue (Jutsushiki Junten Shutsuryoku Saidai・Ao): Satoru creates a center of gravity in a specific space capable of attracting all matter, crushing it all effortlessly akin to a black hole. He can also move the point of gravity at will, augmenting its destructive capabilities greatly.
- Cursed Technique Reversal: Red (Jutsushiki Hanten・Aka): By applying the principle of Reverse Cursed Technique to Limitless, Satoru Gojo transforms the neutral space into a repulsion force. This technique violently ejects everything touching a void, essentially turning the once-attractive force of Blue into a "pushing" effect with at least twice the strength.
- Hollow Technique: Purple (Kyoshiki・Murasaki): Satoru combines Red and Blue, creating a massive ball of energy he can launch at opponents.
- Unlimited Hollow Technique: Purple (Museigen no Kyoshiki・Murasaki): By externally combining Red and Blue, Gojo can fire Purple without any particular target and blowing up the whole area, himself included.
- Teleportation: Through the act of clasping his hands, Satoru can compress the space between two coordinates for Instantaneous Movement. This allows him to compress space, achieving instantaneous movement from one location to another. Specific conditions govern this ability and the explicit details are yet to be revealed.
- Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void (Ryōiki Tenkai・Muryōkūsho): Satoru expands a metaphysical territory to a particular size by utilizing an enormous amount of Cursed Energy. Once his opponent enters this domain, they are bombarded with a barrage of stimuli and exhaustive information, leading to paralysis and eventual death. If an ordinary individual is within 0.2 seconds of the skill's scope and timeframe, they will experience debilitating effects for nearly two months, with any time spent beyond that threshold proving fatal. Satoru estimates that this 0.2-second span is equivalent to the amount of information an average person's brain processes over half a year. In addition to this deadly impact, like most Domain Expansions, it guarantees a 100% hit rate and provides an enormous boost to the user's Cursed Techniques.
- Reverse Cursed Technique (Hanten Jutsushiki): Gojo is among the few sorcerers capable of using Reverse Cursed Technique, a skill he mastered after Toji put him on death's door. This technique multiplies Cursed Energy, which is negative, against itself to output positive energy which can then be used for healing or inputted into his Innate Technique which results in a Cursed Technique Reversal. While he can't heal others, he can reverse existing cursed effects, compensating for this limitation. With The Six Eyes, Gojo efficiently conserves Cursed Energy, allowing continuous self-healing and brain protection from constant usage. Gojo also possesses the ability to swiftly rejuvenate his power after expanding his Domain. Sorcerers' Cursed Techniques are engraved in the right prefrontal cortex of the brain. When this area becomes "overheated" from Domain Expansion, a skilled sorcerer may selectively destroy it with Cursed Energy, then meticulously restore it using Reverse Cursed Technique. This effectively "resets" this brain region, refreshing the sorcerer's innate Cursed Technique immediately. Despite the inherent risk of death with each attempt, Gojo executed this intricate maneuver four times successively, only incurring serious damage afterward.
- Curtain (Tobari): It is a technique that confines an area within a separate space. Sorcerers mostly use curtains to hide their activities by rendering a specified location invisible to the outside, obscuring any action so that civilians do not witness the Curses or Sorcerers.
- New Shadow Style: Simple Domain (Shin Kageryū: Kan'i Ryōiki): An Anti-Domain Technique Satoru can use to resist the can't-miss attack of any domain targeting him. Satoru normally doesn't need to resort to doing so and Yuji didn't even know he could do it before the latter's fight with Sukuna. Unlike Yuki Tsukumo, Satoru is not suited to teach the technique to others.
- Secret Art: Falling Blossom Emotion (Hiden・Rakka no Jō): A secret art used as an Anti-Domain countermeasure. Gojo learned it when he was a kid, but didn't use it before his battle with Sukuna. Normally, this technique can nullify a domain's attacks, however, due to Sukuna's overwhelming pools of Cursed Energy it only weakened the damage from Malevolent Shrine.
- Black Flash (Kokusen): A technique that creates spatial distortion when a user connects with an impact of Cursed Energy within 0.000001 seconds of a physical hit. The phenomenon causes Cursed Energy to flash black, creating greater attack power.
- Showing One's Cards (Jōhō no Kaiji): This is a Binding Vow that augments the user's Cursed Energy in exchange for verbally disclosing the workings of their Cursed Technique.
