Understanding the hierarchy of these Domain Expansions provides keen insight into the prowess of their wielders.
At its core, a Domain Expansion serves as an amplification of the user’s cursed technique, extending its influence over a defined space typically enclosed by a protective barrier.
This infusion of their innate domain saturates the enclosed area, enabling the wielder to unleash their technique with unparalleled efficacy. The result?

14. Yorozu’s “Threefold Affliction”
Yorozu, a formidable wielder of curses, tragically met her end at the hands of Sukuna, leaving behind a brief but impactful legacy within the series. Despite her limited appearance, Yorozu showcased remarkable proficiency in her cursed technique, specializing in the construction of insect-based armor and weaponry.
Her Domain Expansion, christened as the Threefold Affliction, served as a formidable extension of her cursed prowess. Within this domain, Yorozu’s constructed assaults possessed an unwavering accuracy, ensuring that once ensnared within its confines, her adversaries faced inevitable strikes.

This weapon, revealed later, enabled Sukuna to assume his fully incarnated, Heian-era form, underscoring Yorozu’s enduring impact on the narrative.
The title of Yorozu’s Domain, Threefold Affliction, bears potential significance beyond its literal interpretation. It hints at the depths of her affection for Sukuna, suggesting that her love for him transcended mere sentimentality to become a profound affliction—a witness to the complexities of human emotion woven into the fabric of the story.

With a physical appearance reminiscent of an octopus concealed beneath a shroud of white cloth, Dagon’s true form reveals muscular arms and a body resembling that of a caterpillar.
Central to Dagon’s arsenal is his Domain Expansion, known as the Horizon of the Captivating Skandha. Initially utilized by his allies—Mahito, Jogo, and Hanami—for respite and sanctuary, this domain reveals a serene and tranquil beach, its waters imbued with a sense of calmness.

While Dagon’s Horizon may not rank among the loftiest echelons of Jujutsu Kaisen’s strongest Domain Expansions, its potency remains a force to be reckoned with. Its serene exterior belies the ferocity of its attacks, underscoring Dagon’s status as a formidable adversary within curses and sorcery.

11. Hiromi Higuruma’s “Deadly Sentencing”
Hiromi Higuruma emerges as a distinctive figure within Jujutsu Kaisen, transitioning from a stalwart defense attorney to a formidable contender in the perilous Culling Game.
Prior to embracing the path of a jujutsu sorcerer, Higuruma epitomized nobility in his legal practice, championing the cause of the unjustly accused, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.
Despite his inherent adeptness in the art of jujutsu sorcery, Higuruma’s journey to mastering his Domain Expansion took an unexpected turn. Rather than through conventional training, his domain was awakened through the activation of his cursed technique, courtesy of the enigmatic Kenjaku.

Dubbed Deadly Sentencing, Higuruma’s Domain Expansion manifests as a miniature courtroom, wherein those ensnared within its confines are compelled to plead their innocence before the presiding judge.

Central to his resurgence was the acquisition of a formidable Domain Expansion, christened the Time Cell Moon Palace. Within this domain, time itself bent to Naoya’s will, coercing all within its confines to move at a meticulously regulated pace of 24 frames per second.

Failure to adhere to this temporal decree resulted in merciless reprisal, highlighting the lethal precision of the technique.

Notably, the expansion endowed Naoya with the ability to target individual cells within his adversaries, underscoring the extent of his newfound power.
Despite its formidable nature, the Time Cell Moon Palace proved to be penetrable, albeit by a select few. Maki, bound by her heavenly restriction, successfully navigated through its confines, albeit not unscathed.

Those ensnared within its confines face a grim fate, as the Deity’s Gravestone Technique ensures an inevitable strike against its hapless victims. The synergy between the Domain Expansion and the Gravestone Technique poses a dire threat even to the most formidable of Jujutsu sorcerers.
Trapped within the claustrophobic embrace of the Graveyard Domain, victims find themselves at the mercy of the Smallpox Deity’s malevolent influence. The conditions within the Domain can facilitate the manifestation of the Deity’s powers, resulting in a fatal affliction with smallpox for those unfortunate enough to be ensnared within its grasp.
8. Jogo’s “Coffin of the Iron Curtain”
Jogo’s Domain Expansion stands as a witness to his formidable prowess, summoning forth a colossal volcano that engulfs average targets in an instant inferno.

Being classified as a special-grade spirit further validates the potency of both his domain and cursed technique, cementing his status as a formidable adversary.
Jogo | Jujutsu Kaisen (Credits- Gege Akutami)
Noteworthy is Jogo’s exceptional intelligence among cursed spirits, setting him apart as a calculated and strategic opponent. However, despite his formidable abilities and cunning, his Domain Expansion proves ineffective against the likes of Yuji and Gojo.
Their overwhelming strength swiftly overwhelms Jogo’s volcanic onslaught, highlighting the vast disparity in power.
Eager to test his mettle against Gojo, Jogo’s impatience ultimately leads to his downfall. Though he stands as the sole cursed spirit to confront Gojo directly and survive, his encounter with Sukuna at Shibuya paints a different fate.
In a cruel twist of fate, Jogo meets his demise at the hands of Sukuna , succumbing to flames hotter than his own—a poetic irony underscoring the merciless nature of the jujutsu world.
In the annals of Jujutsu Kaisen, Jogo emerges as a formidable adversary, his Domain Expansion serving as a witness to his destructive capabilities. Yet, his encounters with the likes of Gojo and Sukuna remind us of the precariousness of power in the face of even greater forces.

While still in its developmental stages and harboring flaws, with the right approach, it possesses the capability to vanquish even special-grade curses—a feat not to be underestimated.

Hailing from the esteemed Zenin clan, one of the three major sorcerer families, Megumi inherits the sacred Ten Shadows Technique. This ancestral legacy grants him the ability to summon a diverse array of ten shikigami, augmenting his combat prowess significantly.
Furthermore, his capacity to store sacred weapons within his shadows proves to be a valuable asset in battle, further solidifying his reputation as a formidable adversary.
Megumi’s potential is widely recognized within the confines of the series, earning praise from both Sukuna , the preeminent cursed spirit, and Gojo, the pinnacle of jujutsu sorcery. Their acknowledgment of his innate abilities underscores the magnitude of his talent and the promise he holds for the future.
In Jujutsu Kaisen, Megumi emerges as a figure of immense potential, with his Domain Expansion standing as a witness to his burgeoning power.

Taking the form of a colossal Pachinko machine, Idle Death Gamble bestows upon Hakari a myriad of bonuses and attacks, contingent upon the outcome of his spins.

Sukuna’s Domain Expansion manifests as a formidable Buddhist shrine, adorned with menacing horns and skulls, its entrances marked by giant, ominous mouths.

Gojo Satoru’s magnetic appeal extends far beyond his charm and striking appearance—he is undeniably one of the most formidable figures in Jujutsu Kaisen, heralded as “the strongest” from the outset.
His confidence in facing even a fully revived Sukuna speaks volumes, underscoring the depths of his power and prowess. Throughout the series, intelligent cursed spirits are unequivocally advised to steer clear of Gojo, a witness to the sheer magnitude of his might.

Bearing inherited techniques such as the Six Eyes and Limitless, Gojo possesses near-infinite cursed energy usage and unparalleled control over space. His innate abilities are further augmented by his exceptional intellect, superior strength, speed, and reflexes.
The Unlimited Void, a manifestation of his power, ensnares its victims in a nightmarish cycle of experiencing all their actions infinitely while simultaneously feeling nothing—a slow and inexorable descent into oblivion. Notably, Gojo and those he touches remain impervious to its effects, standing as a witness to his unrivaled prowess.
At the heart of Jujutsu Kaisen’s allure lies its intricate power system, with the Domain Expansion technique adding layers of complexity and intrigue to every battle.
While not every character possesses access to a Domain Expansion, those who do rank among the series’ strongest. Indeed, the Domain Expansions showcased in Jujutsu Kaisen represent the pinnacle of power, each imbued with its own unique and formidable capabilities.
