Gojo Meme EXPLAINED: Why Everyone Is Laughing, Crying, And Simping Over Satoru Gojo
If you’ve spent more than five minutes on the internet lately, chances are you’ve seen Gojo’s face. Whether he’s looking smug, sad, or totally unbothered, Gojo memes have taken over social media.
So what’s the deal with them? Most of the time, they capture big feelings—confidence, heartbreak, or just being dramatically tired of everything.
The whole thing kicked off with Jujutsu Kaisen, especially that iconic “Nah, I’d win” moment from the manga. But even before that, lines like “I alone am the honored one” were already meme-worthy.
Now, you’ll find Gojo in TikTok edits, reaction posts, Reddit comments, and anime group chats. People use him to say “I’ve got this” or “I’m completely falling apart”—sometimes both at once.
Over time, Gojo memes have turned into their own genre. With redraws, parodies, and crossovers popping up daily, it’s safe to say this trend isn’t going anywhere.
What Is the Gojo Meme?
The Gojo meme refers to any image, video, or caption format drawn from Jujutsu Kaisen and involving Satoru Gojo, used online to express swagger, sorrow, and sarcasm—all at once.
Popular formats include:
- “Nah, I’d win”: A defiant declaration of self-confidence
- “Honored One”: Bragging that you’re unmatched
The meme often plays on Gojo’s personality—his god-tier strength, ridiculous confidence, emotional trauma, or untimely (and spoiler-heavy) fate in the manga.
When Did Gojo Memes Start?
The Gojo meme started modestly in late 2020, around the time the first season of Jujutsu Kaisen began airing. At first, most of the memes were light-hearted—highlighting Gojo’s overwhelming power, cocky attitude, and signature blindfold. Fans used stills from the anime to joke about him being overpowered or too pretty to take seriously.
But the real Gojo meme boom happened in 2023–2024, following the release of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 and the manga’s most devastating story arcs. That’s when the memes shifted from playful admiration to full-on emotional chaos.
Origin of “Nah, I’d Win” Meme
The now-viral “Nah, I’d win” meme comes from Chapter 221 of the Jujutsu Kaisen manga, which was released on April 23, 2023.
In that chapter, Gojo finally returns after being sealed in the Prison Realm. When asked about his upcoming battle with Sukuna (the strongest curse), he responds with pure Gojo energy:
“Nah, I’d win.”
Initially translated by VIZ as “no,” the speech bubble was later fixed to “Nah, I’d win” to reference a callback from Chapter 3.
Origin of “Honored One” Meme
Gojo says this iconic line in Chapter 65 of the Jujutsu Kaisen manga, during the Hidden Inventory arc, which was later adapted into Season 2, Episode 4 of the anime.
It happens right after Gojo unlocks his full power for the first time by mastering Reverse Cursed Technique to heal himself during a near-death battle against Toji Fushiguro. Revived, glowing with Limitless Cursed Energy and Six Eyes, Gojo calmly annihilates Toji and declares:
“Throughout Heaven and Earth, I alone am the honored one.”
This line is a reference to a famous quote attributed to Buddha at birth, which originally signified divine uniqueness. In Gojo’s case, it’s dripping with ego, enlightenment, and overwhelming strength—and fans instantly ran with it.
Spread on Social Media
On TikTok, millions of views poured in through edits layering Gojo panels with moody music—emphasizing heartbreak or confidence.
On November 8, 2023, TikTok creator @tesorog dropped a fast-paced slideshow inspired by Gojo—and it quickly blew up, earning over 693K views and 117K likes.

Even Sportskeeda noted how fans turned Gojo’s confidence into “cursed memes” after his own defeat, highlighting the ironic superstar fall.
Who Is Gojo Satoru?
Satoru Gojo is a fictional character from the popular anime and manga series Jujutsu Kaisen, created by Gege Akutami. He’s the strongest sorcerer in the series—cocky, untouchable, and often wearing a blindfold or dark shades.
But Gojo isn’t just strong—he’s ridiculously attractive, painfully tragic, wildly unhinged, and the definition of “anime favorite turned internet obsession.” These layers are exactly why he became meme material.
Why Is the Gojo Meme So Popular?
Because Gojo is a perfect meme character:
- He’s ridiculously powerful = great for flex memes
- He’s emotionally unstable = great for breakdown memes
- He’s too pretty = perfect for simping memes
- He gets wrecked = instant tragedy memes
He’s both the main character’s mentor and the hot guy fans cry about at 3 a.m. That duality makes him endlessly memeable.
FAQs About the Gojo Meme
What is Gojo’s famous saying?
Gojo’s most quoted line is probably: “Throughout Heaven and Earth, I alone am the honored one.” It’s peak anime drama and meme gold. Fans also love his cheeky “Nah, I’d win,” which has become a whole meme format on its own.
Why do people simp for Gojo Satoru?
Because he’s the total package: god-tier power, chaotic energy, unmatched drip, and those piercing blue eyes. Gojo isn’t just strong—he’s stylish, smug, and emotionally complex. Basically, he’s everyone’s fictional red flag and green flag rolled into one.
Why did Gojo say “nah I’d win”?
This phrase went viral after Gojo casually dropped it in the manga when discussing a fight. It became an instant flex meme—used whenever someone overestimates their own abilities. Fans turned it into a running joke to express delusional confidence or ironic power.
Does Gojo get a girlfriend?
Canonically? No. Fandom? Absolutely. Gojo has been shipped with everyone from Shoko to Geto (yes, really). But officially, Gojo is single, chaotic, and probably too emotionally unavailable to date anyone seriously.
What is the meaning of Gojo?
The name “Gojo” (五条) literally means “Five Strips” or “Five Paths” in Japanese, but in Jujutsu Kaisen, it mainly just sounds cool. It’s also associated with Kyoto’s historic Gojo Street.
What is the thing that Gojo says?
Besides “honored one” and “nah I’d win,” Gojo also drops casual threats and sarcastic lines like, “Dumb people shouldn’t be left unsupervised.” Basically, he’s meme material every time he opens his mouth.
What did Geto mean when he said “Are you the strongest”?
That line is loaded with emotion. It’s less about power and more about connection. When Geto asks Gojo that, he’s not just acknowledging strength—he’s mourning who Gojo became. Fans often quote it in memes that explore loss, betrayal, and friendship gone wrong.
What do people call Gojo?
Fans call him all kinds of names: The Honored One, Satoru Gojo, Gojo Sensei, or just “Blue Eyes White Daddy” (we don’t talk about that last one). In meme culture, he’s also referred to as “the strongest,” “king of pain,” or simply “him.”
Conclusion
The Gojo meme isn’t just a moment—it’s a movement. It’s what happens when anime gives us a character too cool to ignore, too broken not to meme, and too pretty to take seriously.
He’s strong, tragic, and deeply unserious. That’s why we can’t stop laughing—and crying—with him.
