Background

The world may seem basic to a normal person, despite the complications of humans and their emotions. However, while negative emotions are also seemingly normal to many, not many would think of how drastic of an effect they could actually have. Besides negative emotions making you unhappy like in real life, living in the world of Jujutsu Kaisen means that they’ll manifest into monstrous invisible beings known as Curses (1, 27-28/43), who tend to murder innocent people in ways that are unexplained to many (1, 26), though mostly only in Japan (200). Luckily, there are many humans in this world who are capable of not only seeing Curses, but being able to utilize Cursed Energy like them to combat and exorcise them. These people are called Jujutsu Sorcerers, trained at Jujutsu High Schools (2, 85), whose jobs are to protect humanity while keeping them unaware of what these monsters are. The most powerful Sorcerers of this organization belong to the Gojo family, with their latest in line who shifted the balance of the world: Satoru Gojo (96, 160-161).

With his family having been seen as the top of the Jujutsu hierarchy that maintains the balance of the world, Satoru Gojo’s status and powerful abilities were known to all. Despite this, he wasn’t perfect in his youth. When he and his friend Geto were in charge of protecting a girl named Riko Amanai (66), they would end up failing (65), resulting in her death (73). This was especially an issue since Amanai was needed as Jujutsu High’s next vessel for Tengen’s immortality, which would continue keeping barriers around the academies that would teach up-and-coming Sorcerers (67). Gojo and Geto’s conflicting ideals on Jujutsu society after this incident would lead Geto down a dark path (77 and 78).

Gojo has since become a teacher at Jujutsu High for first years (Volume 0 - 2, 60-61), and would utilize his authority to resist the hierarchy’s higher-ups’ manipulation and create a better world by teaching and raising his students to not be selfish idiots like the higher-ups (11, 79-81), especially when these higher-ups would affect other people’s lives for the worse (42, 151-152). This was Gojo’s plan for the future of Jujutsu society, though Geto had left, thinking that humanity needs to evolve through painful methods and become stronger as a result.

On the bright side, there was an opportunity for Gojo. After a student by the name of Yuji Itadori ate the finger of a powerful Curse named Sukuna and became its vessel, Gojo sought to teach him despite regulations meaning Yuji would have to be executed right away instead (2, 71-76), as this might prove to be his solution for reestablishing the system to become better than before. This had other benefits as well, since Yuji would be able to track other parts of Sukuna that had yet to be found (3, 106-107), as consuming them all and then dying would kill Sukuna once and for all. Basically, it was a postponed execution, but eventually Gojo would aim to snuff out that regulation so that he could live the best times of his life (11, 84). He would end up having to deal with these higher-ups on many occasions (10, 49-50).

However, eventually on Halloween Night in Shibuya, tragedy would occur. Geto was back with a large group of Curses that’d attack with the purpose of defeating Gojo no matter the damage needed. The group would take advantage of Gojo’s few weaknesses, specifically by making him unable to unleash his full power due to having civilians nearby since he works best fighting alone and considers those fighting alongside him to hold him back (84, 99-100), as well as his morals (89, 17-19). This would result in his defeat, along with several casualties (84, 88-94), where Gojo would be sealed away (90). The balance of power of Jujutsu society collapsed (93, 104).

This incident was perfectly suited to Geto, no, Kenjaku’s ideal way of evolving humanity (145). Kenjaku is actually an ancient Sorcerer with the ability to take over people’s body’s, and this was the case with Geto after Gojo had killed him. Gojo’s sealing wouldn't be undone, with “The Shibuya Incident'' and its many casualities showcasing that he should remain sealed, thought to be an accomplice. Attempting to free Gojo was now considered a crime that resulted in execution, but now also all of his decisions among Jujutsu society were revoked (137). This included Yuji’s execution, but all hope wasn’t lost, as his students still respected his teachings and followed them still to prevent the dark side of Jujutsu society from corrupting further (143 and 158). Plus, with how stories go, he’ll probably eventually be freed someday to provide a needed light in the cursed Jujutsu society (144).

Note

What’s being used here as the main sources are the Jujutsu Kaisen manga and Jujutsu Kaisen 0 manga, which is a prequel to the main story. The official databook for Jujutsu Kaisen will also be included, as well as a “Deep Learning Mathematics Lecture'' from Jump GIGA Summer 2021, which involved the mangaka Gege having mathematicians help him explain various Jujutsu Kaisen techniques, including Gojo’s.

Personality

Gojo is mainly laid back and selfish with a smile on his face most of the time due to his status as being part of the Gojo Family, as well as playful (3, 105-106/108), even to the point of buying souvenirs before arriving to help out in a situation where people could have died (2, 67).

Very quirky all around (4, 112 and 32, 140-141/148-150).

Is still a nice guy who will always look out for his students (10, 50-51), and it’s very genuine how much he cares for them so that they can change Jujutsu society to be better (11, 79-84).

Though he will leave out details for them as sort of tough love (21, 103).
Yuji wasn’t even the first person on death row that Gojo helped out (Volume 0 - 1).

While serious when he needs to be while fighting, he’s still somewhat playful toward opponents (16, 169).
Is also really serious when it comes to shaping Jujutsu society, even talking down to the old leaders who he deems as selfish (18, 36-41).
Can come off as blunt (33, 170).

Cursed Energy & Jujutsu

Cursed Energy is an energy source made from negative emotions such as sadness and anger (12, 103).

It exists within most humans due to how common negative emotions are and is especially common within places such as hospitals (1, 27).

It’s normally invisible but skilled humans are able to see Cursed Energy and beings composed of it like Curses (1, 40-43), or through special glasses (18, 33-34).
Jujutsu is the ability for Sorcerers like Gojo to utilize Cursed Energy to perform Cursed Techniques for various types of abilities (12, 96-100), using the Cursed Energy like electricity that powers electronics.

Sorcerers must control their emotions to channel Cursed Energy correctly since simply getting angry isn’t enough (12, 103-105 and 13, 110-112), with controlled emotions being able to turn into Cursed Energy (105, 152-154).
Cursed Techniques can be granted upon one’s birth (42, 165 and 43, 175), which are called Innate Cursed Techniques (82, 66).
As seen throughout the series, hand signs are typically how one performs Cursed Techniques (190).

Used for exorcising Curses (1, 51), even being able to be blasted as a projectile (12, 98-99).
Can enhance a user’s physical strength (12, 100-102), speed (43, 176-178), and durability (22, 109-110), with the latter even aiding in internal damage to the body (71).

Cursed Energy also allows one to remove strong seals that normally prevent Cursed Objects from being consumed by Curses to make them more powerful (1, 27-28).
Someone who isn’t trained in using or defending against Cursed Energy will feel pressure and a sense of dread just by being near it (1, 33/37).
Cursed Energy lingers around an area after being used and is traceable through sensing in that way (19, 54-56).

A skilled user of Cursed Energy can turn it off to limit detection from others (184).

Gojo has a large amount of cursed energy at his disposal (140).

While Yuta is stating that he has more than Gojo, he’s using Gojo as a comparison for how much Cursed Energy he has, implying Gojo still has a ton of it, but not as much as Yuta.

Besides Sorcerers, the only non-Sorcerers who give off Cursed Energy are from Japan with the exception of foreigners only when they die (209).

Limitless

A Cursed Technique that is known to those of the Gojo Family and requires a sophisticated manipulation of Cursed Energy (16, 188), with Gojo obtaining it for the first time in 100 years (68).

In Gojo’s case, this manipulation is largely thanks to the Six Eyes (Volume 0 - 4, 167).

This allows Gojo to manipulate space at the atomic level (Volume 0 - 4, 166), specifically by utilizing the Infinity that is naturally present everywhere and bringing it into reality (14, 139).
Used for various techniques depending on how it’s fueled (75).
Limitless is so great that it can even work in a Prison Realm where time doesn’t flow (91, 66-69).

Though it was also stated that Prison Realm needed time to adjust to Gojo so that might play into why he was capable of doing so (92, 76).

Infinity

A Cursed Technique brought into reality by Limitless (14, 139), where Gojo slows down objects approaching him infinitely (14, 134-136 and 66), essentially making attacks unable to reach him and stop in place entirely due to the infinite space he creates between him and his opponent or projectiles (2, 70 and 14, 128-129).

In concept, this is similar to counting the decimals between the numbers 1 and 2. No matter how high the decimal is, it will never reach 2 due to the infinite decimal numbers from 1 to 2. This technique is also very similar to the Achilles paradox (14, 146).
Gojo is able to adjust the scale of distance between him and his opponent in this made infinite space so he can make physical contact if need be (14, 136-137).
Opponents also have their perception of space altered so that they think they’re successfully hitting Gojo when they’re actually not (14, 131-134).

Part of this also allows him to make his opponent think they’re closer and farther than they actually are.

He can of course turn it off if he intentionally wants something to touch him (12, 101-103), which also allows him to fight his opponents physically (14, 136-137).

The activation for Infinity has been set to be automatic thanks to the Six Eyes, which takes effect by factoring in the mass of the approaching object and its degree of danger from the amount of Cursed Energy while also considering the object’s shape and speed (76), which allows him to pick and choose what goes through Infinity.

This even activates when physically fighting someone to the point where his opponent’s splattered blood won’t touch him (14, 137-138).
Gojo still tends to use hands signs in conjunction when activating Infinity despite its automatic use, which is something he used to do in the past, and it might be due to wearing his blindfold and covering the Six Eyes when holding back, as he’s shown to not need to once it’s off (85).

He’s also noted that he’s been able to minimize the amount of hand signs used for Infinity (76), meaning he still needs to do them without the Six Eyes, though with them it makes this entirely passive.

Gojo keeps Infinity almost always active, unless he willingly turns it off for strategies (85, 115-118), being able to do so thanks to utilizing Reverse Cursed Technique on his brain at all times 24/7 (76).

He’s shown that he is still able to use it for over a day while lacking sleep even without Reverse Cursed Technique (70).

He can also amplify Infinity to form a barrier that crushes targets with a powerful force (85, 121-124), even granting the ability to blast an invisible force at those who are far away (2, 74).
He’s also used this to stand on water (14, 145 and 15, 151), and if an object is between two of his body parts then that object will float (69).
Gojo has noted that Infinity does struggle when it comes to countering poisonous objects (76).

Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue

A technique born by empowering Limitless with negative energy (69).
This lets Gojo cast a strong magnetic effect onto a target for various purposes (14, 146 and 71).

This is created due to the negative space “created” being fixed by the surrounding space and causing the attraction as a result (69).

Gojo has used this to crush and twist objects (12, 98-99) and people’s limbs (52, 184-185), send people flying (71), collide two objects or people together with great force (69), collapse buildings by basically compacting them (65 and 221), and generally gives him some form of control of objects like it’s telekinesis to use against enemies (224).

He’s even able to attract people or objects to his hand to make them basically weightless and easy for him to carry (69).

It’s also been stated that this technique can be used for high-speed movement (84, 100), presumably by attracting himself toward an object or area and is most likely what he used here to get to an enemy judging by the “fwp” sound (52, 183).

Gojo lunging at Sukuna during their battle is also most likely a showing of this supposed high-speed movement utility (226).

Cursed Technique Lapse - Maximum Cursed Energy Output: Blue

The most powerful form of the Blue technique, utilizing it at its maximum output as the name would suggest.
This version of the technique has a wide range and is typically used to affect large areas with the capability of destroying buildings and forming large trenches (71), which is pretty useful for clearing the way so that opponents can’t hide from Gojo if he can’t sense them via Cursed Energy.

Cursed Technique Reversal: Red

A technique formed by fueling Limitless with positive energy through utilizing Reverse Cursed Technique (12, 106 and 74).
Gojo creates a red sphere before unleashing a destructive repulsive force powerful enough to obliterate large sections of a forest as well as most opponents in its way (14, 139-141 and 74).

This is stated to be at least twice as powerful as his Blue techniques (84, 100).
Another showing of it being used pretty quickly (Volume 0 - 4, 166).

Hollow Technique: Purple

A technique created by colliding both Blue and Red’s opposing forces to form an imaginary mass that is blasted forward (52, 185-189 and 75).

Gojo can either fire off a massive attack able to cause destruction and craters throughout a forest (52, 187-189) or a smaller version of it that is much faster to use (75).
The attack has been described before as “Void” in interviews.

This attack can be interpreted as erasing matter due to the two infinite forces of Blue and Red combining, similar to how cancellation works in mathematics or a matter and antimatter reaction.

There are times where this attack doesn’t erase everything it has hit such as here where Hanami still had bones poking out (53, 8/15), so while it is most definitely matter erasure, it isn’t existence erasure.

Gojo can also put out a 200% output version of the technique that’s much more powerful (223).

Teleportation

Limitless gives one the ability to teleport (16, 188), which Gojo has shown even in battle for sneak attacks and does so via clapping his hands (52, 182-184).

This is described as a long-distance teleportation technique (76), and is specifically performed by Limitless compressing the space and coordinates between Gojo and his target location to bring him there (226).

Using a drawn magic circle allows one to teleport other people (Volume 0 - 3, 137-138).

Levitation

Limitless allows one to levitate in the air and move around (52, 181-183), with Gojo even being able to fight while doing so.
Traveling through the air for him is more like walking on it (83, 77-79).

Binding Vows

A Binding Vow is a self-imposed restriction one can make for themself or others in order to gain something such as enhanced abilities (11, 75-76), with stricter restrictions or doing multiple restrictions granting greater potential for one’s power (23, 136-139).

They’re made through the use of Cursed Energy and are based on mutual interests (11, 77).
Showing One’s Cards is a specific vow where one explains to their opponent how their abilities work (47, 81-82).

Besides making the user’s techniques more effective, a talented Sorcerer like Gojo can manipulate his opponent with this by either creating a set of rules that restrict others or misleading them by hiding certain things about a technique or different applications of it (20, 68 and 50, 139-140/148-149).

More explanations of the latter example about not telling the whole truth of one’s Cursed Technique (51, 157/161-162).

Gojo specifically explains the functions of Limitless to increase its potency (14, 134-137).

There have been other showcases of Binding Vows allowing one to survive attacks they normally wouldn’t have by sacrificing something in return even on the fly (190).

Black Flash

A technique that greatly enhances a user’s physical strike when the attack is applied with Cursed Energy within one-millionth of a second upon impact with the target that’s powerful enough to generate a spatial distortion and the impact is stated to be equal to the power of a normal strike to the power of 2.5 (48, 104-107).

This can be done with any attack, showcased mostly as a punch, but kick versions of Black Flash have been performed (128).

Black Flash requires an immense amount of focus to the point where no Sorcerer has ever been capable of performing it at will (48, 104-105).
Using Black Flash in a fight typically occurs when the user is in the zone similarly to an athlete (50, 144-145), with the use of Cursed Energy becoming as natural as breathing.

This “in the zone” phenomenon allows one to operate at 120% of their maximum potential (128).

But unfortunately performing Black Flash consecutively in a single day is deemed to not be the wisest and is thought that two attempts at most is the limit for its usefulness (50, 144-149).

Reverse Cursed Technique

A technique that converts usual negative Cursed Energy into a positive form (Volume 0 - 4, 155/158 and 74), which can be used to heal the bodies of oneself or others (13, 124 and 72).

It’s been stated however that Gojo himself is incapable of healing others with it (113, 139).
The technique stems from the user’s brain (175), meaning destroying the brain can stop it (188), or through the use of toxins (189).

How Cursed Energy becomes positive is via multiplying negative Cursed Energy with negative Cursed Energy (12, 106).

It works just like normal multiplication in math.

This has allowed Gojo to survive impalement through the throat and head (71 and 72), letting him live even when so close to death (74).

Sukuna once used it to restore Yuji’s sliced off hand (8, 10-11 and 9, 29).
There are other greater showings of Reverse Cursed Technique regenerating entire organs (143), and Gojo himself has shown that he can survive his body being sliced through over and over again and even restore one of his Six Eyes if it’s damaged (226), essentially granting him pretty potent regeneration.

This max output version of Reverse Cursed Technique used by Gojo consumes twice as much Cursed Energy (226).
It’s also possible that the cuts he was taking weren’t cutting through him entirely since he was able to survive a bit in Sukuna’s Domain Expansion despite deactivating Reverse Cursed Technique and the fact his clothes remained intact, as well as the fact he had to use another technique later on to prevent Sukuna’s slashes from slicing through him (227).

Gojo constantly uses Reverse Cursed Technique 24/7 on his brain to refresh it so that he can continuously utilize Limitless without worry of overuse (76).

The use of positive energy in his Red (14, 139) and Purple (52, 185-189) techniques also stem from Reverse Cursed Technique, as Gojo is all around capable of feeding positive energy into his Cursed Techniques (13, 124).
Characters discuss the fact that Gojo can utilize Reverse Cursed Technique constantly and still be able to manipulate Cursed Energy for other techniques (226).

Gojo can also use Reverse Cursed Technique to replenish exhausted Cursed Techniques if his Domain Expansion barrier has been broken (226 and 227), though this still took a bit of time and isn’t instant (228).
Reverse Cursed Technique can’t restore one from transmutation (112, 129).
Reverse Cursed Technique struggles to remove poisons from the body despite being used for healing (136), with only highly skilled users of it being capable of doing so (143 and 189).

Curtain

A black barrier created by Sorcerers that’s capable of unveiling Curses while either keeping people stuck inside or wall outsiders from entering it (6, 155-156), which extends to even into the ground to form a perfect spherical barrier (45, 46), and is also able to block radio waves (80, 14-15 and 83, 67-68/74).

This technique is useful for concealing threats to non-Sorcerers since they can’t see them or anything that occurs inside the barrier (45, 46), basically keeping citizens’ peace of mind (65).

This can also conceal the output of Cursed Energy attacks even to those incredibly skilled in utilizing Cursed Energy like Sukuna (223).

Sorcerers are able to sense when their Curtain is damaged (Volume 0 - 3, 140).
Sorcerers are also able to impose conditions to their Curtains to grant them additional effects (25, 177), such as this example where Satoru Gojo was denied access from entering the barrier and was repelled when attempting to as a cost for everyone else being able to enter (45, 33-35).

The example given also means a Curtain can become too strong for an individual simply by singling them out from not being able to enter.
Another example of a condition where it trapped civilians on the inside but they were allowed to walk into it from the outside (83, 67).

This example also shows that Curtains are huge, and can easily have a 400 meter radius, though they do vary in size depending on how one decides to make it (85, 125 and 91, 60).

Another example of a condition is being outside your own Curtain will make it stronger as opposed to staying inside of it yourself (94, 112-114).

Conditions for a Curtain only affect things related to Cursed Energy (83, 68), such as humans, Cursed Spirits, and Cursed Objects.
A skilled Curtain user can even have the effects of the barrier occur before it visually finishes (45, 32), or be able to make multiple Curtains of various sizes and be between them (85, 125).

Falling Blossom Emotion

A technique that counters Domain techniques via automatically counterattacking the sure-hit sure-kill attack as soon as it comes in contact with the user (108, 34-39).

Using it in a sword standoff shrouds the entire sword in Cursed Energy that allows it to attack anything that makes contact with it (148).

It has been confirmed that this technique is passed down through the Big Three Sorcerer Families (108, 35), which includes the Gojo family, with him showing it off in combat much later in the series (227).

Innate Domain

An Innate Domain is the space that one is born with and can be described more easily as a person’s mindscape that embodies their heart/mind (11, 74-75).

Both Sorcerers and non-Sorcerers possess an Innate Domain (73).

Innate Domains are both mental and spiritual as evidenced by Sukuna being capable of crossing over to Jogo’s to speak with his spirit as he passed on after Sukuna had killed him (116).

Another example of spiritual relation with Innate Domains is the time where Yuji died and entered Sukuna’s Innate Domain (1, 64-65), and stayed there to converse and combat with him before Sukuna revived him through the use of Reverse Cursed Technique to restore his heart (11, 69-79).

Domain Expansion

A Domain Expansion is an Innate Domain imbued with a Cursed Technique and manifested (15, 153-156 and 130), utilizing Cursed Energy in a way that’s considered the most powerful technique of a Sorcerer (8, 18-19).

Specifically it is the realization of the Innate Domain plus the activation of the Cursed Technique (56, 82).

The technique involves the user releasing their Cursed Energy to form a barrier and separate dimension that traps victims (30, 92), granting various benefits like:

Though it has also been stated that Domains neutralize an opponent’s Cursed Techniques (82, 56).

All of the user’s attacks are sure to kill while still being unavoidable (30, 92).

A user can trap specific individuals and leave out others from being inside (30, 91).

Leaving out certain individuals pushes them out (84, 101).

Victims can only be trapped inside a Domain if they possess Cursed Energy of their own (198).

This is most likely the reason as for why environmental settings like plants and buildings aren’t brought into the Domain.
The only way to bring someone with zero Cursed Energy into a Domain is if they either agree to the condition, choose to invade it intentionally, or if the user uses a physical object as the Domain’s shell, such as the inside of a building.

An example of Megumi performing the latter due to his inability to trap a target with his Domain normally (170).
Even if someone with zero Cursed Energy is inside a Domain, the sure-hit effect can’t recognize them and won’t come into play.

Being inside the Domain here is considered to be inside the “heart” of the individual (11, 74-75).
A victim can attempt to run away to escape the Domain Expansion but this is deemed to be almost impossible (15, 158), mainly due to the inside of a Domain being bigger than the outside and it being very difficult to even find the boundaries of the inside in the first place unless one came into it from the outside and kept track of where it was (109, 64/70).

Domains are typically much more durable on the inside than the outside, though these properties can be switched at the cost of the Domain’s effects being lessened (227).
A better way to beat out someone’s Domain Expansion is to expand one’s own and the more polished one will suppress the other (15, 159-162), or at the very least it will make the other more vulnerable (82, 56).

This is the outside view of what a Domain Expansion looks like (15, 164 and 30, 91), which is important to know since making the barrier tougher on the inside means that it’s more vulnerable on the outside and may allow outsiders to intrude (30, 103-104), though usually this is still a bad idea under normal circumstances since that then leaves you trapped in their Domain (30, 105).

This has shown to be the case for Gojo’s Domain Expansion as you can see the size of it here (225).

Gojo has shown that he can increase or decrease this range immensely (227), which makes the barrier weaker or stronger respectively.

One is capable of moving the coordinates of their Domain to eject someone out of it (189), which may put them in an awkward area or position in the real world without the Domain’s normally flat footing.
Typically used as a last resort move due to how much Cursed Energy is required for it (31, 113), but it’s also considered one’s most fearsome technique (134).
After using Domain Expansion, the user’s Cursed Techniques are briefly depleted and are difficult to control (130 and 179), though this is unlikely the case for Gojo thanks to the Six Eyes.
A Domain will usually disappear when one dies and this can be used as a strategy into making one’s opponent think they’ve won (82, 57-61/63).

But this also showcases how Domains are linked to the user’s Cursed Energy when they do go away upon the user’s death (111, 93-94).

It’s described that the objects inside a Domain Expansion don’t hold any meaning and are seen as indestructible but also as if they don’t exist in the first place (226).

Unlimited Void: Gojo’s Domain Expansion where those who are inside are exposed to a stream of infinite information that overwhelms their minds so much that they become a vegetable (15, 159-164), eventually dying.

The specifics of this literal information dump is that it forces victims into thinking about an infinite amount of possibilities in terms of perception and communication (15, 163), to where a single action can be interpreted in an infinite amount of ways that they are forced to take in.

An example the mangaka Gege gave was that viewing an apple would force someone to think of the letter “A” with no end since it’s the first letter in the word “apple” (15, 166), though other aspects of the apple are also most likely taken into account.

Gojo is able to lift this effect for various non-lethal purposes like interrogation (15, 163-165).

One can avoid the effects of Unlimited Void by being in contact with Gojo (15, 159-165 and 84, 101), though a non-Cursed Energy user can also survive for 0.2 seconds without any super harmful effects occurring (89, 24-25), though they will need a couple months of rehabilitation afterward, as 0.2 seconds within his Domain Expansion still gives half a year’s worth of information.
This 0.2 second version of the technique is something Gojo has done to avoid majorly hurting innocents (89, 20-25), though using it is also seemingly faster as Mahito’s own 0.2 second Domain Expansion that he replicated from Gojo allowed it to outspeed Sukuna’s attempted assault against Mahito for touching his soul (130).

Unlike other characters’ Domain Expansions, Gojo is capable of using his multiple times per day (109, 63), meaning if he messes up the first time, he still has enough energy to try it again over and over.

New Shadow Style: Simple Domain

A barrier technique that allows one to not be affected by the opponent’s imbued Cursed Technique inside a Domain Expansion (102, 14), even leaving the caster of the Domain Expansion vulnerable to attacks (82, 11).

Gojo can still use his own Cursed Techniques while Simple Domain is deployed (226).

Domain Amplification

Amplifying oneself with their Domain involves expanding it thinly over their body as a sort of film (84, 95-99), which has a couple of effects like:

This is described as the sheathed Domain allowing the opposing techniques to flow into that empty space and neutralize it (225).

One can even imbue their own sure-hit sure-kill Cursed Techniques into their Domain Amplification at the cost of the neutralizing effect becoming much weaker (171).
The user is unable to activate their own techniques while performing this (85, 115-118), plus the neutralizing effect can be countered if one increases the power of their technique to become stronger than the amplification (85, 120-121).

A user who can simultaneously use a Domain Expansion and Domain Amplification and perform them in that order can keep the Cursed Technique effect of the Domain (227).

While Gojo himself hasn’t utilized this technique so far, he’s knowledgeable of it and how it works (84, 98-99 and 227).

Gojo has also been stated by the author that he can do anything that he tries to do (4, 130), which should include Domain Amplification.
Even if this weren’t to be granted to Gojo, it is confirmed that the Falling Blossom Emotion technique is passed down in the Big Three Sorcerer Families that includes Gojo’s, which also protects from Domain Expansions.

Equipment & Physical Abilities

Sorcerer Physiology

“Sorcerer” is the term used for those who can utilize Cursed Energy (4, 111).

They’re capable of seeing Cursed Energy and beings made of it when that’s invisible to normal people (1, 40-43).

Cursed Energy and beings are incapable of being captured through pictures or footage (20, 77) or heard by normal people possibly (200), as it cannot be parsed by the brain.
Sorcerers are also incapable of dying from Curses while still being able to feel them (45, 46), which is important since non-Sorcerers can’t feel Curses despite still being able to touch them, meaning they’re unaware of the negative effects happening to them.
