WE WANT YOU (To be Gojo clan head in an rp group)

Hello there ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, and every delightful person in between! I am here representing my friends and allies in a new Jujutsu Kaisen rp group: global surge. This follows sorcerers in the 2040s, many years after the events of the culling games and in a time when the characters we know and love have vanished into the either. Tengens barriers haven't held, and cursed spirits and techniques have spread to the global population! The Vatican has genuine power again for once, big corporations are spearheading their own treacherous plans, and the Zen'in clan has even become a political action and global outreach group, which is really well written and actually even cooler than it sounds.

I personally am running the Kamo clan, which is far less interesting than what's been done with the Zen'ins, but whilst we have many people creating their own minor clans and factions, we're missing one key thing.

Nobody wants to lead the Gojo clan.

For whatever reason, nobody will touch the Gojo clan with a 10 foot pole, which is really not helping with our timeline. Since we know what the modern Kamo and Zen'in clans are doing, we can plan their stories accordingly, but until someone comes in with a cool idea for the Gojos modern role, we have no clue what to do with them.

That's where you come in! If you're interested in rp, have some cool ideas for the Gojo clan, and have some experience, please join our discord server! We're ideally looking for someone who would help shape our overall world-building, so you'd need some prior experience, but depending on the application we'll see what we can do!

Full disclosure, you will NOT be making a new Satoru Gojo. The limitless is only allowed on its own, and the six eyes is banned outright, so that ain't happening. However, this gives you the ability to create a whole new power for the clan head you'll be making! You get to start a grade higher than everyone else too, at grade 1 instead of semi-grade 1, so what's not to love???

Please feel free to send any applications for techniques and potential roles of the Gojo clan here, where I can easily read them, or join the server and talk to the whole group!

https://discord.gg/nNBB5WYkS

Disclaimers:

- All regular OCs must start at maximum semi-grade 1. A clan head has max grade 1.

- The server is still relatively new.

Also, anyone is welcome! Even if you don’t want to be a Gojo clan head, you can come and make your own character however you want, make your own faction to boot, so don’t be shy!

See you soon!

My bigender OC Mitsuki/Yuzuki! Drawn by Kiyomi_des on bsky and ig! 🙏❤️‍🔥💛 info about them below!

Mitsuki/Yuzuki Ryoji
She/her He/him.
Age: Early 20’s. 
Height: 5’8–5’10. 
Voice Claim: May Hong. 
They’re bigender and resonate with both sexes. She goes by Mitsuki when she's presenting as fem, and Yuzuki when presenting as masc! Some of their friends and family call them Suki and Yuzu for short. He wears slightly heeled shoes when presenting as masc, and ties his hair back, wears the boy's jujutsu uniform, as well as binds his chest. It’s not exactly the most convincing thing ever but he doesn’t really mind. While presenting as fem she wears the girls uniform, and lets her hair down, and wears her normal shoes and does not bind her chest. 
Not the most convincing masc presentation ever but she doesn’t mind too badly ^^

Background: 
Like most Jujutsu sorcerers, growing up as a little kid Mitsuki could see and interact with cursed spirits, and a few people in town thought she was a cursed demon child despite her forward, upbeat, and bubbly personality. She often tried to talk to the cursed spirits, as well as trying to show their friends and family that they were real. Although their friends and family of course sometimes felt like something was off in the corners and alleyways and streets, they could not fully see them and had no reason to accept and believe what Mitsuki said. 
Mitsuki never really gave up on trying to convince people what she was seeing, even though she talked about it less since she had started to feel shame about it all, maybe she was cursed, she didn’t know why she could see the things she could…

One day when she was about 9 or 10, her family decided to send her away to her Grandpa Gi in Tokyo, who was also a “cursed demon child” back in the day, he could apparently see the same “monsters” and “things” that she could, so her parents thought it best if she was in his care, her parents kept in contact with him, although it was rare, and he seemed to be doing well. Her parents aren’t bad people or anything, they just want what is best for her situation, maybe Gi Ryoji found help somewhere, therapy and such…

Gi Ryoji is a man in his mid 60’s, white hair, a strong beard and mustache that covers his upper lip, and he is strongly built, his body is complimented by his Jujutsu sorcery uniform, as he is a First grade teacher at Jujutsu High Tokyo, specializing in cursed tools and some base fitness as well for both jujutsu and normal physical fitness. 
When Mitsuki arrived at his home he welcomed her warmly and he seemed to have a similar personality to her own, friendly, upbeat, and bubbly, which are traits Mitsuki would admit she had let diminish the last few years due to her shame, depression, and what people back home thought of her. 
His house was humble and cozy despite a first grade life and salary, but it did have a large backyard. The first thing she asked him about was his outfit, he had these buttons she had never seen before. This is of course when Mitsuki begins to learn everything about the world of Jujutsu sorcery and cursed spirits. He would let her get situated and comfortable at his home for a couple of days before he began explaining and showing her things like cursed spirits and why she can see them, cursed energy and cursed tools, and the history of cursed spirits. 

For now she was too young to go to Jujutsu high, but Gi still showed her how to use a few cursed tools in case of emergencies and self defense, things like a simple and unassuming tanto knife with a wooden handle and a keychain hoop at the bottom of the handle. 
They would bond quickly, and later become like both father and daughter as well as Grandpa and granddaughter all at the same time. 

As a couple years passed and she turned around 11, Mitsuki would often go to work with her grandpa when he was teaching at Jujutsu high, meeting other teachers like Yaga, and students as well, she even briefly met Gojo and Geto when they were students. She was either sitting around listening or reading, or helping her grandpa with stuff. Even his official assistant with his cursed tool management, it was good for her.
He’s easily the reason she has a fascination and almost obsession with cursed tools, collecting them and such for herself, if she was hypothetically present during hidden inventory she would’ve absolutely snagged the inverted spear of hidden, seeing as it’s a very powerful special grade cursed tool. 

She would tag along to sparring class and gym class, and witness the cursed techniques and physical prowess of her grandpa, as well as all the students too, both the boy and girl students were of course bigger than her, stronger than her, fitter, more agile, etc, and Mitsuki admired and looked up to all of them, and wanted to look like them when she reaches their age in just half a decade. She would even talk to them or bug them out of admiration, and most of the students saw it as actually very endearing and fun, a lot of them looked forward to seeing her reach her potential. Her admiration for both the boys and girls and goals made her realize some deep and subconscious feelings and thoughts about her gender identity, that she decided she would explore when she starts jujutsu High. 

Her grandpa and the students taught her about what exactly cursed spirits are and do, and how it’s the jujutsu sorcerer's duty to exercise them to protect non-curse users. (She always wondered where Geto went, and she wouldn’t learn until later…)
She would understand the seriousness and danger of all of it to a good extent, but she wouldn’t understand it fully until an incident occurs with a cursed spirit that costs her her arms, sliced off at just above the elbows. She encountered a grade 1 cursed spirit that her grandpa saved her from. 
She tried to keep her spirits up despite literally not having her arms anymore, but it was hard, she wasn’t sure she could be a jujutsu sorcerer anymore, she hadn’t even started jujutsu high yet…

Grandpa Gi reassured her they’d figure something out, which leads to him obtaining cursed tools and tinkering with them, there was an old pair of wooden prosthetic arms that were a cursed tool, in his old shed of tools, something his own grandpa worked on, at first it was nothing special, but after restoring them and modifying them, and using his cursed tool knowledge and skills, he created the special grade cursed tool “Curse Nerves”. Mitsuki tried them on, and to their surprise she could move them as if they were her own, the feeling wasn’t the same of course but there was something. 
She had been practicing with her legs before so she had strong legs and stamina! 

She turns 16 and begins her first year. She excitedly puts on the uniform and meets up with her classmates, her first year teacher was Gojo during one of his first years of teaching, she learned a lot from him and he’s half of why she’s as good at fighting as she is by just her first year, her grandpa being the other half. 

During her first year, she would rise to Grade 3 pretty quickly, and reach Grade 2 early in her second year. 
She would turn 17 and her second year was when she decided to try out presenting as masc for most of it, asking her parents what they would’ve named her if she was a boy, and it was “Yuzuki”, the more masc version for a name about The Moon. His teacher was Atsuya Kukakabe, he refined Yuzuki’s weapon skills while using his cursed tools. 
This second year is where he would meet a fellow sorcerer named Shura, and the two would slowly fall in love. 

In her third year, Mitsuki develops into a Grade 1 sorcerer similar to the likes of Todo. Establishing herself as a powerful jujutsu sorcerer, mastering her technique and her skill with the cursed tools she collects. 

Role during the shows timeline: 
Teacher for second years students like Maki, Yuta, Inumaki, and Panda. 

Personality:
They are confident but not cocky or arrogant in their abilities and work hard to develop their skills and power. They are optimistic and bubbly but get serious when necessary. She is charismatic, resilient, and her conviction and integrity rarely fails. She’s empathetic and both selfless and selfish in different regards. She is rather merciless towards cursed spirits and evil sorcerers, in her adult career she’s more ruthless than when she was in school. Lastly, she’s fiercely loyal and deeply respects her fellow sorcerers. 

Her type of woman and her type of man: 
Tall and muscular, with nice curves and big butts, and in general she likes those who have high integrity and are loyal to people and things that matter.

Likes:
Cats.
Dogs.
Snakes. 
Spring, Fall, and Winter.
Fishing.
Reading.
Tea.
Rainy weather.
Thunder Storms. 
Collecting cursed tools. 
Horror games.

Outfit information: 
They wear both feminine and masculine Jujutsu high uniforms. Her uniform has a zipper instead of buttons.
Their sleeves are slightly ripped up revealing more of her prosthetic arms, she didn’t care to fix them. 

Prosthetic information: 
Their prosthetic arms are a cursed tool. 

(I haven’t written their cursed technique yet 😔💔)

OC - Gojo Seijiro (Keicho Period Gojo Clan Head)

Hello hello!

Sharing again an amazing work a reader of my series made for me, for the other main characters of my Keicho period fanfiction.

He's Gojo Seijiro, the former Gojo Clan heir and later Gojo clan head during the Keicho period. He's a big simp, a drama queen, an "overpowered courtesan," if you ask his enemies. He's the one Gojo clan head with Six Eyes + Limitless who fought against the Zenin clan head with the Ten Shadows.

He's part of a novel-long series of fanfiction that, along with other themes, explores past eras of the JJK universe. If you are wondering what this is all about, you can find here the major worldbuilding post for the Keicho period: Keicho Period masterpost

Anyway, I just mostly wanted to share the amazing art I received, it's an incredible feeling receiving fanarts for a fanfiction and now I have these amazing pieces for both the Gojo and Zenin's clan head, let me just be happy for a sec

u/Prize_Customer1778 — 11 days ago

heian sukuna vs gojo

Helllo people, lowk just want a fat fat discussion with some super nerdy jjk fans who know their stuff (i am as well).

Can we just flipping end this. On what flimsy ass string of reasoning enables gojo beating heian sukuna??

back then, sukuna was so strong he flipping made the other major clans unite to TRY and defeat him, to which he beat all of them. When he had exhausted the strong sorcerers of his time, MF GOT BORED and wanted to wait until there was someone strong enough to actually challenge him.

and can we also mention how flipping ass gojos battle iq is. like genuinelyy this guy always fumbles because he’s not locked in.

ANYWAY, jjk nerds please unite and provide a bigggggg detailed explanation on your thoughts and what you think and WHY.

New grading system

Special grade

Ok imo I think the way special grades are decided doesn't really make sense cause yaga is technically a special grade the way you look at it so here is what I think a sorcerer would need to be classified as a special grade

1st they need a domain,seeing that every single special grade(besides geto) has a domain it makes sense that it would be a quality for all special grades.

2nd they need to be able to take on multiple sorcerers at once so people like yuta and Yuki should be able to take on multiple sorcerers at once I'd say 2 to 4 first grades at once.

3rd they need to have a deep understanding of their cursed technique(note when I mean deep it's not like full on know exactly but are lime half way to understanding of that makes sense),it doesn't really make sense why a person wouldn't understand their cursed technique if they have a domain/can use rct

The rest are basic things like they need to be durable,strong and fast I'd say about the same as a grade one

For a sorcerer to be considered special grade they need to meet all criteria on the list and if they don't then we go onto our next topic

Grade one+

This is a new grading system I came up with for sorcerers that meet some criteria for special grade but not all some examples are kashimo,Megumi and so on

When I mean grade one plus it's basically semi special grade but grade one plus sounds better honestly so if a sorcerer has a deep understanding of their cursed technique and is able to take on multiple sorcerers with ease but have no domain like todo the would be classified as grade one plus(of put nanami in this category too but it depends) .you get the gist.

Calamity grade

Now I didn't come up with this one and I don't know who so I can't credit them.

A grade above special grade which include dabura,yuji,sukuna and gojo.for a sorcerer to be in this category I think they would need to be so strong that even special grade sounds like a debuff

Requirements

1st,they need a domain(kinda obvious)

2nd,they need a 100% understanding of cursed energy

3rd,they need to be able to on multiple sorcerers at a time about 20 to 50 grade on/grade one+ sorcerers at a time

4th,they need to be able to beat mahoraga in a 1v1 without any help

5th,they need to be insanely effective/efficient in cursed energy

6th,have a huge amount of cursed energy reserves(around yuta's level)

So as you can see calamity has double the amount of requirements than special grade.and with this new ranking this is how I'd place jjk characters

Grade1+:nanami,kashimo,naoya(human),megumi(because he has an incomplete domain),todo,geto,uramume

Special grade:Yuki,kenjaku,yuta,hakari,yuji,ryu,uro

Calamity grade:gojo,sukuna,yuji and dabura

If there is anyone I missed or you disagree let me know

Is this a bad idea for a technique? (Don’t got a name cause I’m not that creative)

Basically the user of this cursed technique has a soul the shape of a coin. They are able to actualise their soul into an external object, this object is the centre of their technique, they are able to duplicate it and their body albeit for a large amount of cursed energy, they can do this as much as their ce reserves allow. However, the coin they produce is an actualisation of their soul, even the copied coins. damage done to it, is damage done to the soul, however it is more durable than the average coin and can be reinforced with ce. All coins can be damaged, however only the true body can be damaged as the others are just made up of ce, though the coins and the clone can be dismissed at will. The user can also hide briefly inside the coin to dodge or just fling the coin and then appear out of it.

ANOTHER CHALLENGE

YujiVersal won the last round.

- Thank you to all who participated everyone had amazing ideas and concepts, I loved reading them all but I felt YujiVersal had such insane detail and feels like it represents real world struggles and ideas.

So our current winners for the tournament are...

Round 1: ArchiesPJs

Round 2: YujiVersal

Round 3: Maybe you?

NOW ROUND 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The challenge

Make an OC and teqnique themed around Gore / Flesh (IK were going dark with this one), (OC is optional but recommended).

But since this is a darker more gruesome theme then I'm adding a new rule, This character has to be a curse, with there own reasons and goals to kill, You can break this if you have a really good idea i just wanna see some cursed spirits rocking about.

Also bonus points to any art made of the OC, domain or anything.

There can be a domain and maximum and whatever else you want.

The teqnique has to be reasonable and balanced aka no modulo Yuji level shenanigans, // has to be weaker than Gojo or Sukuna, i do allow situations like Takaba where he is broken but stupid.

I will review the responses and announce the winner in the next challenge I do.

If you have an opinion on another response you can reply to it with your idea, if the original commenter likes the idea they can reply with a thumbs up in which I will count the idea as part of the final response.

No cheating and your OC cant be called Gojo.

Good luck!

No prize btw this is just for fun

I can offer a MS pain drawing of Ur fav JJK character.

The Keicho Period (JJK expanded worldbuilding)

Hello hello, new here, always nice to see spaces for JJK original fan contents!

I've made up quite a lot of original content (characters, cursed technique and such) for a series of Fan Fictions I'm writing that aim to expand the past eras and general worldbuilding.

Anyway, since it's a lot of content, I thought I'd put order in all the various posts I made about the past eras, starting with the Keicho period.

So I started with this full worldbuilding/basics about the state of the Jujutsu Society and their involvements in Japan's political scenario as of 1598, when our story takes off.

I'm working on the earlier posts as well, such as Hattori, Gojo and Zenin that still present an unfinished version of their lore. They'll get the full one, hopefully soon, I'm working on it.

I'd love to hear what you think.

✧ ✦ ✧

“Did you know? The reason why the Gojos and the Zenins are on bad terms? It was during the Keichō era. Their respective clan heads killed each other in a fight.”
— Satoru Gojo (canon manga panel) casually dropping lore like bombs.

This one line haunted me. What happened back then? Who were those clan heads? What could’ve driven them to mutual destruction? So… I cooked. Or, tried to anyway, but it was too fun not to try.

And I wrote a whole novel-long fanfic based on that because I'm insane.

If you're reading the fic and want to avoid spoilers, maybe skip this one. If you're not and you're just here for the lore then welcome, I have no self-control, I've been working on this story for almost a year now and have too many google docs with outline, charachters' sheets and headcanons.

Worldbuilding Basics

The Keichō period (1596–1615) was a pivotal moment in Japanese history, a chaotic transition between the Sengoku (Warring States) and Edo periods, marked by the death of Toyotomi Hideyoshi and the rise of Tokugawa Ieyasu as shogun.

Into this mess, we throw Jujutsu Society.

To make it work, I took a few liberties, sacrificing some historical and canon accuracy for the sake of drama, plot, and cursed techniques.

The Jujutsu Society

  • The Three Great Clans: ZeninGojo, and Kamo are at the peak of Jujutsu Society power. Each fears losing political and supernatural influence in the changing world.
  • Gojo Clan: Spiritual guardians of the capital (then Kyoto), aligned with the Toyotomi. Highly feared due to the Six Eyes and Limitless inheritance.
  • Zenin Clan: Based in the north of the capital (ancient Nagoya), now rising in influence as allies of the Tokugawa faction, struggling with internal pressure to produce a male heir.
  • Kamo Clan: Positioned near Kyoto. Claiming neutrality, but secretly scheming. Their elderly clan head acts frail and wise but is secretly manipulates Gojo and Zenin to make them destroy each other and claim dominance.

As with any noble clan of the time, power must be inherited, by any means necessary and both the Gojo and Zenin clans go to terrifying lengths to ensure their legacy survives. The future lies in heirs. Or so they think.

The Gojo Tragedy:

  • The Gojo clan celebrates the birth of a blessed child: Six Eyes and Limitless.
  • One month later, the child is murdered (Kenjaku’s doing).
  • The Zenins are unofficially blamed, since they're struggling to produce a single male heir at the time.
  • The Gojo patriarch, crushed by grief, becomes consumed by vengeance.
  • He hides the second son, Seijiro Gojo (once again, born with Six Eyes and Limitless) right after his birth, raising him as a secret weapon.
  • He tells his wife the child died at birth; she breaks completely, unable to recognize reality anymore, falling into madness.
  • Seijiro is revealed to the world five years later, once the Gojo believe they are safe from Zenin retaliation as the Zenin now have their own male heir.

The Zenin Secret:

  • The Zenin heir is actually… not a son.
  • Twins are born: a stillborn boy and a girl.
  • The clan head's wife does her maths: male heirs are prioritized, twin births are seen as ominous.
  • The clan head’s wife hides the truth to protect both her and her daughter from being discarded and raises the girl, Kaoru Zenin, as a boy.
  • Only a few know the truth, even her father doesn't know. The clan believes she is their male heir, gifted with Ten Shadows.
  • Her identity is a closely guarded secret, even from her father, who demands perfection from his “son.”

The Political Powder Keg:

As both heirs rise in strength and fame, their fathers’ mutual hatred poisons their upbringing. They grow up as enemies without ever having met, manipulated by those above them.

By 1598, both heirs are powerful young sorcerers.

FLASHFORWARD: 1598

  • With the Gojo clan absent (off assisting Tengen's ritual), a cursed object vanishes from beneath Fushimi Castle (Kyoto): The Mitsuboshi no Yari, or Three Star Spear, a legendary cursed artifact forged in the Heian era, able to break high-level barriers and purify curses via powerful kekkai. (Later revealed to be Hiten, once wielded by Sukuna himself, with a third ability to nullify cursed technique.)
  • Its disappearance triggers a massive outbreak of curses in the capital, culminating in the death of Hideyoshi Toyotomi, and with him, national stability.
  • His heir, Hideyori, is too young to lead. Power is up for grabs. Tokugawa makes his move.
  • The Gojo Clan is blamed, they were entrusted with its protection.
  • The Zenin Clan is also blamed, because the situation suspiciously favors their Tokugawa alliance.

A high-level council is called in Kyoto. Both heirs, Kaoru and Seijiro, are sent to prove their clan’s innocence, each under secret orders to recover the artifact for their clan, and prevent the other from gaining it.

When clues point to the Iga region (under Hattori clan's control), the two rivals are forced into an uneasy alliance and sent on a joint mission

Together, they must decide whether to ignite or prevent a war.

✦THE TOKUGAWA FACTION

  • Region: Edo and Central Honshu
  • Faction Alignment: Anti-Toyotomi (1598–1600). Will become Japan’s ruling shogunate in 1603
  • Head: Tokugawa Ieyasu
  • Spiritual Affiliation: Tokugawa is a non-sorcerer. That doesn’t mean he isn’t terrifying. The Zenins are their spiritual guarddogs.
  • Training Ground: The proto-Edo Jujutsu Tech, established around 1599 with Kaoru’s backing.

The Tokugawa faction represents the shifting balance of power in the final years of the Sengoku period. When Hideyoshi Toyotomi dies in 1598, his son Hideyori is too young to rule. Ieyasu begins quietly gathering strength, aiming to unseat Toyotomi power and consolidate his hold. He isn’t a jujutsu sorcerer, but he doesn’t have to be. He counts on the Zenin to balance out the Gojo.

Ieyasu first strengthens ties with the Zenin clan under Takahiro Zenin, but it's Kaoru Zenin who earns his real favor. Her performance during the Iga Incident and the Second Kyoto Council (where she secure the spear fot the Tokugawa faction) earns his trust. So when Kaoru commits patricide (wink), Tokugawa… lets it slide. He rewards loyalty and let her enstabilish the Edo Jujutsu Training Ground in his territories.

In 1599, Ieyasu orders Kaoru to violate the peace accords and secretly move the Mitsuboshi no Yari from Edo to Nagoya, effectively declaring covert war.
The faction takes a heavy hit when Kaoru leaves Nagoya and the spear unguarded, leading to a siege by the hands of Akiteru Gojo, the Gojo clan head, who commits a real genocide of the Zenin's side. Nagoya burns, and the spear is taken to Kyoto by the hand of the Gojo.
When this happens, Tokugawa is marching the Tōkaidō road, passing nearby. A Zenin messenger begs for help. He doesn’t stop. "If they cannot defend the spear, they'll answer for this crime later." he says. War, after all, is about the bigger picture.

After Nagoya falls, Tokugawa loses faith in the Zenin, blaming Kaoru for the loss of the Mitsuboshi no Yari and the avampost of Nagoya, accusing her of treason as she should have stayed in Nagoya following his orders. He still allows her and the Zenin to fight besides his forces at Sekigahara with the promise of pardoning the entire Zenin clan is she does follow him at war.

This revealed the real winners of the war between the three big families…

The Kamo Clan.
And in 1600, the Kamo join the Tokugawa faction, having orchestrated the chaos from behind the curtain. After the battle of Sekigahara, they secure Tokugawa’s full favor and receive permission to establish and lead a new governing body for the jujutsu world: the Jujutsu Order, tasked with overseeing the clans and managing all relations with the non-sorcerer government. (The same “higher-ups” who will one day be despised by Satoru Gojo.)

Tokugawa accept. Doesn’t care who lives. He just wants to be shogun, and he desperately need all the three sorcerers clans to ensure stability.

Part of this faction:

✦THE TOYOTOMI FACTION

  • Region: Kyoto and Western Honshu
  • Faction Alignment: Ruling power (until 1598) — anti-Tokugawa (1598–1600)
  • Head: Hideyoshi Toyotomi (until 1598), Hideyori Toyotomi (nominally, starting 1598) / Mitsunari Ishida (functionally)
  • Spiritual Affiliation: The Toyotomi are a weak lineage of sorcerers. The Gojo Clan's official historical guardians of the capital and Toyotomi line.
  • Training Ground: Kyoto Jujutsu Training Ground (1600, Seijiro Gojo’s personal act of stubbornness).

The Toyotomi faction is the house built on sand.

For decades, Hideyoshi Toyotomi held Japan in a grip of power and politics. But power built on a single man dies with him. And in 1598, it does. With his son, Hideyori Toyotomi, still a child, real power falls to the Council of Regents, a fractious alliance meant to protect Toyotomi interests.
It fails spectacularly.
One man in particular, Mitsunari Ishida, assumes de facto leadership. A bureaucrat, not a warrior. Ambitious. Desperate. He knows time is against him. To counterbalance Tokugawa’s rising influence, Mitsunari leans heavily on the Gojo Clan, traditional spiritual guardians of Kyoto and loyal Toyotomi retainers. Physically close to the capital, politically indispensable.
In 1598, Mitsunari tasks the Gojo, specifically Seijiro Gojo, with recovering the Mitsuboshi no Yari, the sacred Three-Star Spear that once maintained a purification barrier over Kyoto.
Seijiro Gojo fails and the spear falls into Tokugawa's and Zenin's hands.

Seijiro grows genuinely fond of Hideyori. The boy returns his affection like a little brother, with wide eyes and no understanding of the blood price that loyalty will demand.
But behind closed doors, Mitsunari plots of using Hideyori’s "weakness" as a pretext for war, letting the child die would rally factions against Tokugawa. Seijiro overhears and does not take it well. A confrontation in the Second Kyoto Council ensues. Seijiro, unbothered by courtly niceties, threatens Mitsunari. Mitsunari backs down. For now.

Resentment festers. By 1599, Mitsunari orders Akiteru Gojo to send Seijiro to the Iga front. “Don’t win. Don’t lose. Just stall the war.” Translation: rot in the mountains.
Meanwhile, Tokugawa consolidates power. His forces sweep through Honshu. The failed assassination attempt on Tokugawa Ieyasu, orchestrated by Mitsunari, marks the beginning of the end. Daimyo defect, influence wanes. Mitsunari retreats west, gathering loyalists.

1600: Seijiro Gojo, seeing the inevitable, refuses to abandon Hideyori, too young for blame for the state of the country. Seijiro forms the Kyoto Jujutsu Training Ground for the Toyotomi faction. The Gojo Clan and its cadet branches march under Toyotomi banners to Sekigahara. The battle is a disaster and the Toyotomi faction is shattered.

Post-battle, the Gojo are accused of war crimes (notably the Siege of Nagoya), and ultimately bend the knee to Tokugawa and the newly enetsbilished Jujutsu Order leader by the Kamo.

Hideyori Toyotomi, the boy Seijiro once swore to protect, lives a few more years, then mysteriously vanish in 1603.... After a criminal sorcerer with lightning based cursed energy breaks into Osaka Castle.

Part of this faction:

✦What about the Mitsuboshi no Yari / Hiten after the war?

[Extract from the fic as I'm too lazy to rewrite this]

In the months that followed the summit at Ōgaki, the jujutsu world began to reshape. The neutral Council was formed first by the hand of the Kamo, under Tokugawa Ieyasu's rule. The other clans accepted it, if only because the alternative was worse.

It wasn’t until the early spring of 1601 that the spear was divided. Before witnesses from every major clan, a binding vow was enacted, severing the Mitsuboshi no Yari into three distinct weapons.

Thus were born the Three Heirlooms.

The Inverted Spear of Heaven, entrusted to the Zenin clan, was reforged from the central blade and outer prongs, and retained the spear’s dreaded ability to nullify cursed techniques. The Void Severing Shaft, given to the Gojo clan, was carved from the crimson core of the original shaft, and could tear through powerful barriers and kekkai. The Calamity Binding Halberd, claimed by the Kamo clan, born of the remaining outer blades, held the power to create and stabilize barriers and kekkai.

Each clan took one. Each swore never to raise it against another. They would protect the balance, if not always as allies, then at least as custodians of the same fragile peace.

The story basically involves:

  • More OCs: Like Hattori Masanari (son of the legendary Hattori Hanzo), grumpy realist leader of the Hattori clan who’s the only one that remembers they’re at war and not in a kabuki drama.
  • The founding of the two Jujutsu schools
  • A feral lightning boy (👋 Hajime)
  • Bad dads.
  • Tokugawa doing his thing and not caring who dies
  • The Kamo pulling strings behind the curtain
  • Gay panic, tragic bonds, sword-to-throat tension, morally grey choices
  • Of course the cursed spear no one should be able to control
  • All set in a feudal Japan on the brink of a supernatural total war.

That's it, that's most of the premise. It’s honestly not as light as this post makes it sound, this project started from a joke panel but it’s grown into a whole world and I’m having an incredible fun time playing in this historical version of the JJK universe and trying to survive my own outline.

I’d love to talk more about any character, plotline, or cursed technique if you're curious! I’m happy to ramble.

If someone's interested, here's the link to the actual story. Keep in mind that it's 40% worldbuilding/history/politics, 40% doomed romance, 20% action, so just know if it's not your piece of cake. Also, please keep in mind that I'm no professional writer sooooo yeah, I'm doing my best here (and having fun, that's my ultimate goal). Also, note that to merge Keicho period events AND JJK lore togheter, I had to sacrifice some accurancy on both sides.

Calamity vs JJK

What if all the calamity grade sorcerers(gojo,sukuna,dabura and modulo yuji) fought against the whole of jjk including curses,minus their past selves(obviously) who would win

I think all of jjk would win

Rules:no cursed objects that aren't original with the character so kenjaku can't jave the prison realm buttoji can have his worm since both were alive after the events of hidden inventory(idk if the inverted spear of heaven is still there)

How they would win: separate all four of them make sure non of them can use domain,this would be the hardest part since we would need everyone that can use a domain to either win the domain clash of survive the domain long enough for someone to break the barrier(gojo being the hardest to do since hai domain basically stops you same goes for sukuna since he doesn't have a barrier)

Next all the heavy hitters would go and start dealing DMG for example we could get toji to try and catch gojo off guard,sukuna would be busy with let's say yuta and hakari,dabura could be fighting mahoraga and yuji could be attacked by choso(unlikely unless he doesn't know it's yuji) and yuji probably wouldn't attack choso back knowing it's his brother giving others opportunities to land hits

And if we still have some domain users on stand by they can act as finishers if all that isn't enough
