Nah id win

As the strongest curse, Jogoat fought the fraud the king of curses. He began to open his domain. Sukuna shrunk back in fear, then Jogoat said "Stand proud Sukuna. You are strong."

What's also interesting is how, putting aside his actual goals, Jogo is a Paragon of Humanity's greatest strengths. He displays Companionship, he shows Courage in engaging in Battles against superior opponents, he's willing to lay down his life for a greater purpose, he entrusts the Future to others and he accepts using new approaches to solve problems he couldn't before. Very ironic, that the Curse that detests Humans has many of their best traits.

Jogo's surprisingly relatable. He's the talented kid who had the potential to reach the stars but when he face someone more powerful than him, it stunted his growth because he became too focused on what he couldn't do.

Ironically it was his human like empathy for his fellow curses that kept him from the tier of strongest. In JJK it’s the purely selfish and self indulgent that truly reach the pinnacle.

I still think Mahito himself was lacking at the end. He at the bottom of his heart suffered from human weakeness. He begged for his life when he was outmatched by Yuji and Todo. Mahito was the absolute inverse of Jogo to me. Mahito forgot that he was made of humans and had humanity inside him, and Jogo forgot that he was a curse.

Jogo is PROOF of the Gojo effect - Thats how him being born made the world safer, Jogo got humbled and he stopped killing randomly because he was scared

Jogo was actually too selfless, he's ready to die for an ideal instead of for himself He even tried to hit Sukuna to get him on their side, even though it was fruitless

The reason for Jogo's weakness is explained in the Kashimo vs Hakari fight. Kashimo finds a way to exploit Hakari's domain, but shrugs it off saying "That's how losers think" and goes for the kill against Hakari at his strongest. Gojo only knew stories about Sukuna, but could proudly say he was going to exorcise him. Sukuna saw the mountain that was Gojo, and with just 1 finger and no means of bypassing Infinity, proclaimed he was going to kill Satoru Gojo. Yuji had no chance against a low-tier Special Grade curse, yet he faced it head-on and even tried to beat Sukuna at any given opportunity. The difference here is that all of these sorcerers were strong because they did not care what the odds were, they sought to surpass them. This mentality is also at the heart of Geto's question: are you the strongest because you are Satoru Gojo, or are you Satoru Gojo because you are the strongest? (ergo, are you that confident because you never lost, or did you never lose because of your confidence?). Jogo was strong but had no confidence, so he couldn't grow, he couldn't become stronger. And it's not that scheming is weakness, Kenjaku is really powerful, but the problem is the mentality. Kenjaku schemes, but he is confident he will beat Gojo. Jogo schemed BECAUSE he felt he couldn't do it. Going back to the first example, it's not that Kashimo wasn't going to end the fight if Hakari ran out of RCT, but rather that he wouldn't let that mindset block him from taking an early victory, or even worse, put him on the defensive and let Hakari beat him. Finally, one character actually does the opposite of what Jogo did. Megumi. Early Megumi wasn't confident in his power. He was strong, but he would give up easily, he fought only as a last resort and given the chance would always run, call the teachers, rely on others. And if push came to shove, even at the smallest incovenience he was ready to throw his life away and just throw a wild Mahoraga at people, at the cost of his own life. It's only after he changes that mindset that he can unlock his Domain Expansion and beat a Special Grade he couldn't before.

Jogo may have lacked confidence but he never ducked a fade. Ran the 1v1 with the two of the strongest people in the verse and didn’t try to run or beg for his life.

I like Jogo because he is one of the few curses that showed his humanity and flaws 😭😭😭

To be strong in JJK is to embrace who you are, your raw unrestrained nature and letting go of anything that tethers you down in any way. Mahito embraces his status as a curse and grows exceptionally from this, Maki never once falters in her ideal and conviction but holding on to her sister and the small amount of cursed energy she had did. If Jogo never lost his drive, his soul to burn the world around him to a crisp, that overwhelming pride and ego in himself as a curse that led him to attack Gojo in the first place, he would have grown to become far stronger then anyone else. In other words, JJK rewards hedonists and maniacs who's response to any form of adversity is "full send"

I think the reason why Jogo lost is very similar to why Toji lost. When Toji forgot his own morals and gave up his own identity to fight Gojo he had already lost and this is the same with Jogo. Jogo claims to be the true human but he fails to prove his own identity after the fight with Gojo. Curses are born from human's negative emotions but they are pure they can only act out the emotion they were born from. In this way Jogo should have been a curse that burnt wildly and without restraint but after his fight he loses himself. He refuses to use domain expansion and therefore is holding his own fire back. In this case what truly happens is as soon a Jogo holds back he's lost his status as a true human he no longer acts out the pure emotions that he was born from and instead just becomes a pedestal to lift Mahito the true human into the spotlight.

Jogo purposely needed to be held away from the main cast. As he would have soloed all known sorcerers in season 1. It's like with Orochimaru, we unfortunately never saw his full capabilities. From the narrative standpoint though it made just sense to pin him against the two strongest.

If Jogo had the mindset of Mahito, ngl I think he would be top 5

the biggest issue jogo suffered from was gaining the complexity of human thought and the limitations it can create, it’s why his death is a final long conversation with sukuna and his friends compared to mahito, who was capable of deeper thoughts but never let it block his instincts.

Its kinda messed up bc If you put any other of the disaster curses or really anybody in Jogo's position (Having fought the two GODS of the JJK world Gojo and Sukuna) Literally anybody's confidence would be dwindled down to nothing which is sad bc Jogo was so powerful compared to the others

I've actually always thought of Jogo to be the most sympathetic of the disaster curses and ironically enough, the most human. He kinda combines the best and the worst of humanity in him and even shows genuine care for his fellow disaster curses. He also seemed kinda... nice at times to be honest. A bit grumpy, yes but not like he's pure evil.

I think curses go a lot more deeper than people think, seeing how evil and thoughtless mahito was while killing and enjoyed it, but jogo doing the same actually cared about his fellow cursed spirits, even feeling sad at hanamis death. And his end dialogue with sukuna trying to explain his feeling of sadness to sukuna

This character is just pure perfection. There's so much to him, with so little said. Ik a lot of it is head canon, but the best series leave the most open for self-interpretation.

Highest destructive capability out of every character in the series so far

I imagine Jogo becoming this Soul of Cinder type of deal where he can cast the curses he has incinerated to ashes, but when he's backed into a corner he just drops all play and turns into a raging god of war and flame.

I’ll say it under every Jogo video because it was almost beautiful, “Stand proud, You are strong” the king of fucking curses

Jogoat deserves respect

Something that' sad but endearing about Jogo's character is that strangely enough, what held him back from becoming that next level of curse is that Jogo cared for his fellow curses to an extent. I forget where, but it's either implied or said that Sukuna was partly so strong for his lack of care for anyone other than himself. And it makes sense, Sukuna is always only ever looking out for himself, and it's served him remarkably well because he doesn't have to care about anything other than his own strength. The same partly applied to Mahito. Mahito could have been the Sukuna of his era, if y'know, Sukuna wasn't still technically alive. What held Jogo back from being a curse like Mahito and Sukuna, was the fact that despite looking the part more than them, he had a bit more humanity than them.

A video about Jogo? Hell yeah. He's so underrated. I'm glad people are talking about him!

Jogo is my favorite character in jjk. He’s a curse who, in his quest to prove he’s better than humanity, instead discovers that he is more human than he realized. This humanity was what held him back as far as strength goes. He didn’t fight for the sake of it without purpose or meaning. He fought for his friends and for the life he wished all curses had (the life of humans). He was never going to be the strongest like sukuna or gojo because he was selfless. I think he’s kinda like Zeke from AOT in the way that he has these grand extermination schemes but it all boils down to how he wants to be able to appreciate the little moments of joy with his friends.

Negative emotions make us more human I think.

I think another reason that gojo was stagnant was in a real sense he achieved his dream and became human. He embodied very good moralistic traits and was worried about losing those qualities if he let him self burn carelessly in the end he was content living how he was because that is how he wanted to be. To give into his nature almost went opposite to his desire so every time he had the chance to maybe burn a little more care free he was caught by that, and when he was burning more freely he was not thinking nor looking to grow or burn harder. When he needs to think and contemplate his nature he fears failure and loss, but when he embodies his nature he is never contemplating it.

Gojo is that RPG character that put 100 on strength but 0 on luck

Imagine he had dagons growth spurt in battle 😂 Dagon went from a weak cursed womb to expanding his domain and bodying grade 1’s like it was nothing. Bro only fought one time on screen and was half way to special grade

thanks for the great video! you helped me understand curses, especially my Jogoat

Yo! The ad for this video was the exact clip you started it with. That’s was trippy. 😮

Awesome video and the squadron 42 music is always nice to hear!

Super insightful video I love it!

Gotta love the bloodborne music in the background this was a great video

And it makes sense that he was the strongest disaster curse despite his mindset. Jogo was wrong to think that Mahito had more potential than him in my opinion. At the end of the day, there is no death that invokes a more visceral fear in humans than being burned alive.

I think something interesting to note is that a volcano which is what Jogo is based on, is usually calm for long periods of time which can even create ecosystems or such but once erupts goes full destruction, nothing survives. He has a very odd nature as a curse spirit

Imagine being among the top five, where the intensity of the fire not only consumes flesh, bone, and metal but also annihilates curse techniques and even the very essence of curse energy itself."

See it’s very interesting because while jogo doing cowardly tricks shows him going against his nature while Mahito tricking people, lying, being a coward and being so purely malicious is what made Mahito pure, humans can be truly evil and as such needs no pride but fire? Fire is beautiful, it could wipe away all things and still maintain its natural beauty but jogo lost his beauty and pride

Honestly jogo atp of the series I would say is top 5 or top 10 in terms of strength but had shit match making only fighting against the 2 most op characters in the series but that’s the point if he had just rely on his natural instincts he probably would have grown in power.

“Stand proud Sukuna, you are strong.” -Jogoat

Jogo really wants for all curses to be free and for all curses to feel like the true humans, he the only selfless curse.

After stand proud opened up his domain, he said are you you're strong I am you or are you the one who left it all behind and his overwhelming intensity because with this treasure I summon the fingerer simply answered, nah, i'd win

The chillest maple story background music with the hypest gojo scenes 🩵

love the laurence and abyss watchers theme in the background

Love the Cygnus Garden BGM in the beginning of the video

If jogo spent more time learning about curse energy as much as he spent time practicing poems to say as he gets his ass beat, he'd be stronger than sukuna.

Gege did jogo dirty with the matchups

Nice Maplestory BGM!!!! I've played since pre-BB

Great video

I actually like that each of the three earthly cursed spirits are dispatched separately by each of the strongest established characters thus far in short order.

He was toyed with by the best of the best. It wasn’t a competition. Sukuna didn’t even use domain expansion. Even mahoraga caused him to use his domain (only once)

Music is from Dark Souls 3 and Bloodbourne

that background music feels so familiar, like ds3 abyss watchers (2:50)

Fraudkuna fans getting ballsy with this one

Jogo was actually pretty damn powerful, the only one stopping his growth was himself

Jugo respect damn, Let's go

01:35 I disagree, a volcanos’s lava is destructive but can also crate a foundation (in the ocean) for life to live on in the future. Jogo was willing to become a stepping stone/island for the future of all curse.

Slander on jogoat is crazy

I think sukuna wanted him to use his domain. Not to show him up but to maybe teach a little. Like he did with Megumi even glaze a tiny bit like he did with megumi.

A being with absolute certainty in it's true nature will always act in accordance with it's nature. Jogo was a true curse until he lost to Gojo. After that he became doubtful of his nature. He became insecure. He became human

u lucky im in a jolly mood

A Firestorm Reaches for the stars... And becomes one If Jogo truly realized his potential, im willing to go as far as to say he wouldve actually landed a hit on sukuna and given him a better fight than kashimo, Scorching the entirety of Shibuya and leaving nothing but a scorched and incinerated Crater in his death with everything turned to ash or melted magma

Love that the BGM is Maplestory!!!

honestly i think Sukuna asked Jogo why he didnt open his domain because im pretty sure sukuna himself wouldnt be able to open his to counter, given the fact that he at the time wasnt aware of the whereabouts of megumi and would not be willing to risk killing him by opening his domain

off topic. But The maplestory music was a great touch

Ironicly, Jogo lost because he was too human and cared too much

“Stand Proud Sukuna, You Are Strong”

the disaster curses in general had mad potential but non of them survived for it

Mahito and Hanami fled and Dagon tried outranging Toji. Sukuna can call him out for not using his domain, but Jogo would have died far faster trying to play the domain game against Sukuna regardless of Gojo inflicting PTSD/killing his confidence early on. He cleaned house against 99% of the JJK characters.

I really like your analyzation man. It was good. He didn't apparently have the self awareneaa of mahito and you could call him confused or flawed but you can't just call him coward in the picture. That's the biggest problom here.

i hope he comes back in some way, the disater curses are gone but the concepts that created are still here

Bro I was not expecting a JJK video to have Ereve as it's BGM

In an ironic sense, death is a hunt for someone, and then mahito became scared of yuji due to his resolve to hunt him, when mahito is death, which is a never ending hunt, and yet he became afraid of another never ending hunt upon mahito

I really like this character , he has in some way the opposite character developpement of Mahito

What I've always wondered is: did sukuna actually tell him that he's strong? Because right after, we see him saying 'I don't understand about those things' or something along the lines, and his demeanor seems completely different. I think it could be just a hallucination from Jogo? Any ideas?

nah jogoat solos everything.

How did you get this thumbnail months before that episode

everyone that saw the title thought "well, lets see you beat him"

Nice 👍

Funny enough Jogo was very human displaying some of humanity’s best attributes.

That maplestory music slapped me with nostalgia lmfao

Jogo failed because he was the most human. He was the closest to actually being human. To be human is to know weakness, to understand there are forces beyond you, circumstances that have influence over you that you have no influence over. And like many humans was undone by that realization. Curses really have no such understanding. They just ride the currents regardless. Forces that can't even govern themselves. But there is another category that both sides seek without really realizing it. Gods. To be the force that shapes while having the agency to govern...what better way to define a god? This is what I think all sorcerors are aiming for. Maybe futile, even for Sukuna, but even a futile effort has meaning in that it allows you to measure yourself and your target. And perhaps reaching that goal is the revolution.

Jogoat could have beaten fraudkuna if he had used his full strength. He knew fraudkuna was having a bad day tho so he let him win, like an older brother letting his younger sibling win.

You can call him dumb you can call him ugly you can even say he's weak but coward is not one of them he pulled up on both gojo and sukuna!

Volcano he may be, but volcanos are some of the most futile ground, in that sense rebirth and life being important makes sense. This is further supported with his friendship with plant curse lady

crazy jogos potential considering hes still top 10

Im thinking where did I hear this background music from before?

The ds3 song in the bg...but yeah, I do know that jogoat is the strongest character in jjk.

The Main Man Nanamin🥹

“If you burned away everything, you would have reached the likes of Gojo Satoru” -Ryomen Sukuna, the king of curses Jogo got an inspirational speech too late

"The sound of the Gion Shoja temple bells echoes the impermanence of all things; the color of the sala flowers reveals the truth that to flourish is to fall... However, we are the exception!" - Jogoat

I find it interesting that the one who takes the form of a mountain is the one with the weakest foundation

He could have been the next akainu had he have a better durability and personality.

Whats the name of the music also i have never seen jjk is it worth watching

What's the first background music? sounds really familiar

Awesome KZfaq picture

How would the other three have Looked if they "evolved"/learned about stuff like mahito did?
