In the Jujutsu Kaisen franchise, Satoru Gojo is the man who owns the title of the strongest sorcerer in the modern era. Due to his innate gifts, as well as the fact that he worked incredibly hard to achieve this status, Gojo's strength is far beyond anything that even the most powerful curses or sorcerers can deal with.
As such, it's only natural for him to be compared to heroes from other anime franchises. However, the main ones that Gojo is often compared to are those whose strength is far above even his own, so in this article, let's go over every major anime hero who could defeat Satoru Gojo.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Every Era's 'Strongest' & Their Strongest Abilities, Explained
None can even hold a candle to the power of each era's strongest sorcerer in Jujutsu Kaisen – especially when they use their strongest abilities.
10 Yuji From The Future Is The Strongest Sorcerer
Series: Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo
Although Gojo and Sukuna stood above everyone else in the original series, Yuji has become the strongest sorcerer of all time by the time of Modulo. Although we didn't get to see many feats, he was able to show unparalleled control over Shrine, Piercing Blood, and could seemingly also hit a Black Flash at will, which was said to be something so difficult that Gojo himself could never master it. Plus, due to decades of experience with his powers, his understanding of Jujutsu is unmatched, even by Sukuna, making Modulo Yuji the strongest sorcerer of all time.
9 Asta Would Negate The Effects Of Infinity
Series: Black Clover
Though this may be contentious for some, Asta is the powerful protagonist of the Black Clover franchise and he stands a very good chance at beating Gojo. Not only are his strength and speed feats incredible to behold, but Asta also possesses legendary swords that have anti-magic properties that would prove disastrous for Gojo's Infinity. Plus, while in his stronger forms, like his Devil Union form, Asta radiates an aura that gradually breaks down other's energy.
8 Ichigo Kurosaki Out Scales Gojo In Every Way
Series: Bleach
The protagonist of the Bleach franchise is also one of its most powerful characters. Although Gojo possesses the Infinity, which is one of the most potent defenses in anime, Ichigo out scales him greatly in just about every other metric such as speed, strength, and just overall power. Plus, while in his stronger transformations such as his Merged Hollow form, he can release attacks that bypass dimensional barriers due to the immense spiritual energy packed into them, which would just negate the Infinity.

7 Naruto's Physical Stats Are Way Better Than Gojo's
Series: Naruto
Just like Ichigo, Naruto is a character who is far stronger than Gojo in terms of regular stats like strength and speed. While many believe that he wouldn't have an answer for Infinity, the truth is that Naruto's Truth Seeker Orbs while in his Six Paths state give him the Yin-Yang Release ability, which negates any ability or power that it is used on. Through this, he has a means of bypassing Gojo's ultimate defense.
6 Giorno Giovanna Has The Actual Strongest Defense
Series: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Part 5: Golden Wind
Although most consider Gojo's Infinity to be the greatest defense in anime, Giorno's defense through Gold Experience Requiem vastly surpasses it. This is because, through his Stand's ability to revert anything back to 0, any attack thrown at Giorno is essentially negated due to GER's control over causality, which is made even stronger due to him being able to operate individually without Giorno's influence. In a fight against Gojo, many believe that GER can even revert the Infinity itself to a point where it doesn't even exist, making him far stronger than his opponent.
5 Goku Surpasses Gojo In All Aspects
Series: Dragon Ball
Goku tends to be the top pick for most whenever the topic of overpowered and iconic anime protagonists comes up. Keeping in line with this, Goku's strength is so great that he currently exists as a multiversal being who could definitely defeat Gojo if they were every to fight. Many believe that since Goku is able to travel many times faster than the speed of light, he could bypass Infinity, though he has other ways of doing so as well, such as the Vice Shout, which is a technique that can shatter dimensional barriers, rendering Infinity obsolete.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Gojo's 7 Most Overpowered Abilities, Ranked
Gojo is one of the strongest sorcerers in history, which is why he has some of the most overpowered techniques of all time.
4 Sung Jinwoo Is A Multiversal Powerhouse
Series: Solo Leveling
Solo Leveling is the series that is currently spearheading the entire anime powerscaling tradition in the modern day. The protagonist, Sung Jinwoo, is one of the most powerful characters in the series as of Season 2, but towards the end of the franchise, he will eventually grow to become a multiversal being who is entirely unparalleled in his universe. Due to his insane stats, control over darkness, and millions of soldiers, he would easily deal with Gojo if they were to fight.
3 Saitama's Strength Is Simply Unquantifiable
Series: One Punch Man
Saitama is the most powerful character in his entire series, and he has repeatedly shown feats that just feel impossible. Although he doesn't have any special or unique magical powers and relies solely on his physical prowess, Saitama is able to do things that none can contend with, such as when he managed to stop an attack that was coming from an entirely different dimension that he didn't even know was there. If that's the case, then Saitama could definitely bypass Infinity through similar means.
2 Rimuru Tempest Is A Deceptively Powerful Being
Anime: That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime
Although Rimuru Tempest started his journey as a mere slime, he eventually turned into a perfect digital being who gained enough magical power to create entire universes on a whim. Due to such advanced levels of space-time manipulation, there is virtually nothing Gojo could do against this character, as Rimuru can essentially even just strip the Limitless Sorcerer of this power or negate its abilities entirely.
1 Simon The Digger Is Way Beyond The Scope Of Everyone Else
Series: Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann
Anime is a genre that is full of impossibly powerful beings and incredibly destructive powers. However, none even operate on the scale of Gurren Lagann's protagonist, Simon, who ended the series piloting a mech that was thousands of times larger than entire universes, which he was even then throwing at his ultimate enemy. No matter how complex someone's abilities or powers get or how broken they may seem, they can never operate on the same scale as Simon the Digger at the end of Gurren Lagann, making him arguably the strongest character in anime.
All these series can be streamed on Crunchyroll.
