9 Jujutsu Kaisen characters who can't stand Satoru Gojo

Satoru Gojo is inarguably the most popular Jujutsu Kaisen character and has become the face of the series despite being a side character in the manga. While he is well-loved in the community, to the point that his death affected actual manga sales and was mourned by fans in real life, this is not the case in the manga.

Gojo's character and his rather loud and quirky personality have made many characters hate him, including members of the jujutsu society. Measuring the tolerance level of a character towards Gojo makes it possible to list Jujutsu Kaisen characters who can't stand Satoru Gojo.

Utahime, Gakuganji, Yaga and 6 other Jujutsu Kaisen characters who can't stand Satoru Gojo

1) Utahime

Utahime and Gojo have had a history of taking light-hearted jabs at each other ever since their time in high school. While Utahime was always Gojo's senior, Gojo's constant teasing of her made her dislike him very much.

While it is obvious that Utahime still sees Gojo as a benevolent sorcerer whom she will help in times of need, she still cannot stand being around him, especially since Gojo himself cannot stop himself from teasing her constantly. Compared to other Jujutsu Kaisen characters, Utahime has a very minor dislike towards Gojo..

2) Gakuganji

Gakuganji's hate towards Gojo might seem more like him directly antagonizing him. It is his simple dislike of Gojo's rather brash and destructive nature. Gakuganji's hate towards stems from Gojo's way of doing things, which goes against Gakuganji's own creed of following rules no matter what.

This is even more amplified due to Gojo directly antagonizing him. But this hate is not on a personal level, which is proved during the beginning of the Gojo vs Sukuna arc where Gakuganji helped Gojo prepare for the battle.

3) Yaga

Yaga has been in Gojo's life ever since his days as a student. Gojo, as a student, was always problematic due to his brash nature, a trait that has persisted well into his adulthood. Yaga's dislike for Gojo is more personal, like a constant pain that has persisted in Yaga's life for decades. While Yaga's dislike for Gojo might be strong, it is obvious that Yaga would still help Gojo in need.

4) Miguel

Miguel was one of the sorcerers during the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons arc who was personally beaten up by Gojo. Although Gojo and Miguel later resolved their differences, Miguel was forcefully recruited by Gojo to train Yuta.

Despite turning over a new leaf, Miguel still holds animosity and a grudge towards Gojo. This was made clear when he refused to meet Gojo, who had come to see Yuta during his training.

5) Sukuna

Sukuna arguably holds the most unadulterated respect for Satoru Gojo out of every Jujutsu Kaisen character. However, Sukuna's hatred for Gojo stems from their simultaneous holding of the title "The Strongest." Sukuna's feelings lean more towards competitiveness, as Gojo is the only sorcerer who could actually challenge him.

Sukuna's hate towards Gojo has a very malevolent undertone since Gojo and Sukuna are two existences that cannot coexist at the same time due to the simple fact that only one person can be "The Strongest."

6) Uraume

Uraume's existence revolves around Sukuna, and for most of their story appearances, they have expressed allegiance toward Sukuna. Uraume's hatred for Gojo simply stems from the fact that he is not Sukuna, along with Gojo's insult toward Sukuna and his injury to Uraume when the latter tried to retaliate. While Sukuna might eventually overlook the insults and come to respect Gojo in some shape or form, Uraume will never do the same.

7) Jogo

Jogo is one of the few cursed spirits who knowingly started a fight against Satoru Gojo with an overwhelming amount of confidence. Jogo's hatred is tied to Gojo's existence as the apex predator towards cursed spirits, which is further fueled by Jogo's humiliating defeat against Gojo multiple times throughout the story.

8) Kenjaku

Kenjaku has been established as a very calculating individual who has plans nested within plans. While every action Kenjaku takes contributes to a certain plan, Gojo stands as a phenomenon that can appear at any time and ruin all of his plans within moments.

This is depicted during Gojo's sealing, where Gojo manages to pin the Prison Realm in place. This was emphasized again during his unsealing, where Gojo made his way to Kenjaku from the bottom of the ocean while fighting through numerous cursed spirits that Kenjaku had placed in hopes of subduing him. Out of all the Jujutsu Kaisen characters, Kenjaku's hatred towards Gojo is one of the most intense.

9) Nanami

Although Nanami is one of the only genuine friends Gojo left after the death of Suguru Geto, Kento Nanami has expressed intense hatred towards Gojo. Nanami has mentioned that he trusts Gojo but can never respect him as a person.

Gojo's annoying, loud, and rather irritating personality is not compatible with Nanami's cool and collected personality, which is further amplified by Gojo actively trying to annoy Nanami.

Nanami's hatred towards Gojo is the most intense among all Jujutsu Kaisen characters because it is very personal and tied to Gojo's very existence as a human being. While characters like Kenjaku might hate Gojo due to his ability to ruin their plans, Nanami hates Gojo as a person.

Final Thoughts

While characters like Nanami, Kenjaku, and Sukuna might hate Gojo, none of them can come close to Gege Akutami's unbridled hatred towards him. Gege has been very vocal about his hatred for Gojo to the point that it has become a possible reason behind Gojo's minuscule appearances in the manga.

Many fans have also mentioned how the numerous depictions of Sukuna majestically portray him, while all the art related to Gojo has been rather subpar. This further drives the narrative that Gege is Gojo's biggest hater in all of reality and fiction.
