Few anime moments have sparked as much debate as Gojo’s shocking death in Jujutsu Kaisen. Sukuna’s sudden and devastating attack left fans stunned, as it bypassed the seemingly impenetrable Infinity technique. While some defended it as a testament to Sukuna’s unrivaled power, many believed the move defied the established rules of the series, making Gojo’s defeat feel forced.
Enter Dragon Ball Super fans, who wasted no time drawing parallels to their own universe. Comparing Sukuna’s attack to reality-breaking techniques seen in Dragon Ball, they argue that the move wasn’t outlandish but expected at such high levels of battle. As a result, they’ve turned this comparison into a trolling war, claiming that Jujutsu Kaisen fans simply weren’t ready for power scaling on a Dragon Ball level.
Sukuna’s Victory Over Gojo Sparked Fan Outrage

For years, Jujutsu Kaisen fans had anticipated the ultimate showdown between Gojo and Sukuna. The fight stretched over multiple chapters, with Gojo proving his dominance. However, just when it seemed he had the upper hand, Sukuna unleashed an attack that sliced through space and time, instantly cutting Gojo in half. It was a jaw-dropping moment that left many fans feeling betrayed.
The controversy surrounding Gojo’s death came from how his Infinity technique was marketed as an impenetrable defense. Fans had been led to believe that nothing could bypass it, yet Sukuna’s strike effortlessly tore through, contradicting everything previously established. This left many questioning whether the fight was truly fair or if the series had broken its own rules to eliminate Gojo.
Dragon Ball Super fans, however, quickly jumped into the conversation, pointing out that this type of reality-breaking attack is nothing new. They referenced the battle between Gogeta and Broly in Dragon Ball Super: Broly, where the sheer intensity of their fight caused distortions in space-time. In their eyes, Sukuna’s move wasn’t absurd—it was the kind of power expected at the peak of battle.
According to Dragon Ball fans, the key takeaway from Broly vs. Gogeta is that once fighters reach a certain level, the laws of nature no longer apply. Jujutsu Kaisen fans may see Gojo’s death as unfair, but Dragon Ball enthusiasts argue that Sukuna simply fought on a level beyond Gojo’s comprehension—much like how Gogeta initially underestimated Broly’s capabilities.
A crucial aspect of this comparison is that Gojo, much like Gogeta, failed to anticipate his opponent’s full potential. In Dragon Ball Super, Gogeta struggled against Broly because he didn’t fully understand how powerful his enemy could become. Similarly, Gojo underestimated Sukuna’s ability to transcend conventional limits, leading to his downfall.

This parallel has only fueled online debates, with Dragon Ball fans taking the opportunity to troll Jujutsu Kaisen fans for their outrage. While some argue that Sukuna’s move was a logical extension of his abilities, others see it as an inconsistent power jump that undermined Gojo’s character. Regardless, the comparison between these two legendary fights has sparked an intense cross-fandom discussion.
Young Goku, a strong boy with a monkey tail, teams up with teenage inventor Bulma on a quest to collect the seven Dragon Balls that summon Shenron (a wish‑granting dragon). Along the journey, they encounter allies and foes, including Master Roshi, Oolong, Yamcha, and the Pilaf Gang; Goku hones his skills through martial‑arts tournaments and battles against general‑purpose evil across the world.
Anime shipping wars are nothing new, but Naruto fans are taking a victory lap over My Hero Academia supporters after the fallout from the BakuDeku ship. While MHA fans had high hopes for a Bakugo and Deku romance, creator Kohei Horikoshi had other plans, leaving a portion of the fandom bitterly disappointed. Meanwhile, Naruto fans are claiming they “dodged a bullet” with the NaruSasu pairing.
Despite similarities in both series—strong rivalries, emotional moments, and deep bonds—Naruto shippers ultimately accepted the outcome with far less controversy. While some MHA fans took to social media to vent their frustration and even call out Horikoshi, Naruto’s fandom looks back at NaruSasu as a fond but non-canon pairing that never caused widespread division.
BakuDeku Fans Left Frustrated by MHA’s Ending

For years, My Hero Academia fans speculated about Bakugo and Deku’s dynamic, analyzing every intense interaction and emotional confrontation. Some firmly believed their relationship was more than rivalry and admiration, thinking it would into something romantic. However, the series stayed true to its intended path, pairing Deku with Uraraka instead.
The revelation left many BakuDeku supporters feeling frustrated, with some expressing their disappointment online. For them, the interactions between the two protagonists had foreshadowed a deeper connection, making the final resolution unsatisfying. The backlash even extended to Horikoshi himself, as some shippers called him out for not following what they believed was the “real” chemistry in the series.
Naruto fans quickly chimed in, pointing out how they avoided a similar situation with Naruto and Sasuke. The iconic rivalry between the two shinobi was filled with tension, deep emotional investment, and a constant pull toward one another, leading some fans to ship them as a romantic pairing. However, the Naruto fandom never took this expectation too seriously.
Unlike the MHA fandom’s vocal reaction, NaruSasu shippers largely accepted the story’s outcome without significant backlash toward Masashi Kishimoto. While some Naruto fans enjoyed the ship as a fun concept, they never saw it as a viable romantic possibility within the story. This calm acceptance starkly contrasts with the passionate BakuDeku reaction, leaving Naruto fans feeling relieved.
Naruto fans argue that if their series had been released in today’s era, the NaruSasu ship might have sparked similar discourse. However, since Naruto aired at a time when fandom culture was less intense online, the ship remained more of a niche discussion rather than a movement. In contrast, the BakuDeku fandom is highly vocal and deeply engaged, making its reaction to MHA’s ending far more visible.

While MHA fans continue debating the series’ , Naruto supporters are watching from the sidelines, amused by the passionate discourse. Regardless of which fandom handled things better, one thing remains true—anime shipping debates will never truly end, and passionate fans will always stand by their favorite pairings, canon or not.
