Jujutsu Kaisen Season 4 Will Make Fans Very Disappointed Because of This, Gojo Satoru Is Almost Certain to Be Absent!

Kapanlagi.com - After a huge success with the Shibuya Incident Arc and the Culling Game filled with brutal battles, fan enthusiasm for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 4 is reaching new heights. MAPPA has even provided the latest first look during their 15th anniversary celebration that has fans buzzing.

However, behind the high hype, there is one fact that could potentially disappoint many fans. Especially for those who have made Gojo Satoru the main reason for following this series by Gege Akutami.

Although Season 4 is guaranteed to feature bigger battles, terrifying new characters, and increasingly crazy story developments, Gojo's presence remains a big question mark. Even if following the manga's storyline, the strongest sorcerer is almost nonexistent throughout the upcoming season.

So what exactly makes Season 4 potentially disappointing for fans? Here’s the review.

1. Gojo Satoru Is Still Not Free from the Prison Realm

The biggest reason that makes many fans worried is the absence of Gojo Satoru for almost the entire Culling Game Arc. After being successfully sealed by Kenjaku during the Shibuya Incident Arc, Gojo has practically not been directly involved in the ongoing main conflict.

Kenjaku deliberately devised a meticulous plan to eliminate Gojo from the game. He realized that as long as the strongest sorcerer of the modern era was still free, all his plans would ultimately fail. That’s why he utilized Suguru Geto's body to surprise Gojo and seal him within the Prison Realm.

As a result, the sorcerers have to face the chaos of the jujutsu world without the figure who has always been their main protector. For fans hoping to see Gojo in action every episode, Season 4 could be quite a painful season.

2. Culling Game Arc Focuses More on Yuji and Other Sorcerers

Unlike the previous arc, Season 4 will focus more on other characters such as Yuji Itadori, Megumi Fushiguro, Yuta Okkotsu, Maki Zenin, and Kinji Hakari.

This arc is filled with brutal battles involving ancient sorcerers resurrected by Kenjaku. Each character gets the opportunity to showcase their power development while facing threats that are far more dangerous than before.

Although this is good news for fans of other characters, some fans still feel that something is missing without Gojo's presence. After all, Gojo's charisma and popularity have become one of the biggest identities of the Jujutsu Kaisen franchise since the first season.

3. Gojo Returns Just Before the End of the Arc

The most disappointing thing is probably the fact that Gojo was only freed when the Culling Game Arc was almost over. In the manga, that moment occurs just before the end of that arc.

Before that, the sorcerers had to find a way to open the Prison Realm with the help of Angel, an ancient sorcerer who has the ability to nullify cursed techniques. This process took quite a long time and became one of the main missions during the Culling Game.

Ironically, after finally being freed, Gojo's time in the main story doesn't last long either. He immediately enters a major conflict that marks the beginning of the final phase of the manga. This means that even when Gojo returns, fans still won't get many moments with the character in Season 4.
