If you've been skimming spoilers and reaction threads, I get why this question is burning — the panels in 'Jujutsu Kaisen' have a way of leaving your heart somewhere between the speech bubbles and the next chapter release. From everything I've read up to the latest chapters I followed (mid-2024), Gojo hasn't been shown as permanently dead. He was sealed during the Shibuya incident, which led to a long period where fans argued over whether sealed equals dead. That distinction matters a ton in this series: sealed can be effectively neutralizing a character without the finality of death, and the story has repeatedly played with comebacks and reversals.
I spent an entire afternoon in a café re-reading the arc that sealed him, and the community reactions ranged from furious shouting to hopeful fanart. Later developments in the manga hint at major consequences for Gojo — injuries, dramatic confrontations, and moments that feel like death might be imminent — but the panels stop short of a canonical on-page death. Leaks and rumor posts sometimes twist phrasing or show out-of-context images, so I try to stick to official chapter scans and trustworthy translations.
If you're not up-to-date, my practical tip is to read the chapters around the Shibuya incident and then the subsequent arc that follows — it makes the difference between panic and perspective. There's also a lot of emotional fallout among other characters that keeps his presence alive in the narrative, even when he isn't front-and-center. Personally, I still get chills seeing his name show up in character reactions, so I wouldn't say he's gone for good based on what I've seen.
