The inclusion of this new scene serves to deepen character development and provide additional context to the ongoing conflict. By expanding on existing relationships and introducing new dynamics, the anime offers a fresh perspective on the final arc of the series.

This approach not only enriches the viewing experience but also demonstrates the potential for anime adaptations to expand upon the original work, offering fans new insights and perspectives.

In the never-ending swirl of anime power debates, a new viral fan survey has sparked fresh chaos online. According to the poll, 62% of fans believe Jujutsu Kaisen ’s Satoru Gojo could defeat Goku from Dragon Ball . As expected, the claim has anime Twitter (X) and Reddit locked in all-out war.
The debate has reached absurd levels, with fans breaking down power scaling, battle feats, and even philosophical arguments about what “power” means. While the question is clearly hypothetical, that hasn’t stopped thousands from weighing in with memes, spreadsheets, and impassioned essays.
Why Fans Think Gojo Could Take Goku

Gojo’s Limitless technique and his Domain Expansion, Unlimited Void , are often cited as abilities Goku couldn’t counter. Fans argue that Goku, despite his raw power, has no way to escape Gojo’s instant activation of Domain—which could trap him in eternal sensory overload before he lands a punch.
Supporters also point to Gojo’s Six Eyes, which give him near-omniscient control over cursed energy. According to Crunchyroll , these abilities make him virtually untouchable in battle. Critics, however, say this ignores Goku’s speed feats and transformations like Ultra Instinct.

Goku fans argue the Saiyan warrior operates on a completely different scale. With decades of feats across Dragon Ball Z , Super , and multiple movies, Goku has tanked planetary explosions and moved faster than time. The idea that a human—cursed or not—could beat him is “anime blasphemy,” as one fan put it.
Still, the debate shows no sign of ending. Polls and comment threads continue to explode with arguments, and fan-made animations imagining the fight are gaining thousands of views. While Gojo vs Goku may never be answered definitively, the clash of fanbases has already delivered pure entertainment.
