Title: The Art of Drawing Gojo Satoru (Without Losing Your Sanity)
I’m going to be honest with you. The first time I tried to draw Gojo Satoru, it ended in absolute disaster. The kind of disaster where you stare at the paper, wondering where it all went wrong, and consider switching to a hobby that requires zero hand-eye coordination—like, I don’t know, competitive napping.
But here’s the thing: If you love Jujutsu Kaisen, and you love Gojo (which, let’s be real, who doesn’t?), you’re going to want to draw him at some point. Maybe because he’s an absurdly good-looking anime character. Maybe because his hair looks like a chaotic yet perfectly styled explosion. Or maybe because his blindfold-and-sunglasses combo makes you believe that even you, too, could be cool—if only you had infinity powers and a god complex.
So, if you’re determined to put Gojo on paper without making him look like a cursed Picasso experiment, I’ve got you. Here’s a no-nonsense, frustration-friendly guide to drawing Gojo Satoru.
Step 1: Accept That His Hair Will Haunt You
Gojo’s hair is a masterpiece of controlled chaos. It’s wild, spiky, and somehow still fashionable. If you think you’re just going to sketch a few lines and call it a day, think again. You have two choices here:
- Go minimal – Simple, sharp spikes with a few well-placed strands.
- Go insane – Layered spikes, shading, and enough detail to make Michelangelo weep.
Either way, expect to spend a questionable amount of time getting it just right. And by just right, I mean drawing and erasing 57 times before finally accepting your fate.
Step 2: The Eyes—Or Lack Thereof
Drawing Gojo without his blindfold? Good luck. His Six Eyes are legendary, but they are also terrifying to draw because anime eyes are like tiny portals to the soul. If you want to give yourself an easier time, stick with his classic blindfold or sunglasses look.
Blindfold version: A simple, slightly curved band across his face. Shading is key—too dark and he looks like a ninja, too light and he looks like he’s wearing an awkward headband.
Sunglasses version: If you’re aiming for Gojo’s cool guy who could destroy you in seconds but chooses not to aesthetic, get those shades right. Sharp edges, a bit of glare, and boom, you’ve got the world’s most powerful sorcerer casually flexing on everyone.
Step 3: The Smirk That Can Kill
Gojo doesn’t just smile. He smirks. It’s the kind of expression that says, I’m the strongest, and I know it. If your drawing doesn’t capture that little smug curve of his lips, did you even draw Gojo?
A good Gojo smirk requires:
- A slightly asymmetrical curve—too perfect and he looks creepy.
- A hint of playfulness—he’s cocky but charming.
- Optional: A teasing, raised eyebrow. Because Gojo is always just a little extra.
Step 4: The Outfit (AKA The “I Wear All Black So You Know I’m Cool” Look)
Good news: His outfit is easy. It’s a high-collared, all-black ensemble that screams effortlessly stylish sorcerer.
Bad news: Black fabric requires shading. And shading requires patience. If you want depth, you’ll need to blend those shadows like your life depends on it. Otherwise, he’s just going to look like a floating head above a black blob, and that’s… unsettling.
Step 5: Add Infinity (Or At Least, The Vibes of It)
Gojo’s Infinity is what makes him untouchable. Unfortunately, it’s not easy to draw the concept of untouchable space. But here are some hacks:
- Soft, glowing lines around his hand or body to show the energy effect.
- A few distortions in the air around him to give that subtle you literally cannot touch me vibe.
- Orbs or streaks of blue if you’re going for Hollow Purple—because if you’re drawing Gojo in battle mode, might as well go all out.
Bonus Step: Don’t Give Up When It Looks Terrible at First
Every great drawing goes through the ugly phase. You’ll look at it and think, Oh no. This is not Gojo. This is an imposter with bad hair and a suspicious smile. But don’t panic. Keep tweaking, keep shading, and resist the urge to crumple the paper into oblivion.
And if all else fails? Call it “your own interpretation” and tell people it’s an abstract version of Gojo. Boom. Artist.
Final Thoughts: Why Even Try?
Drawing Gojo isn’t just about sketching a cool anime character. It’s about patience, practice, and the pure joy of bringing something to life with your own hands. Plus, let’s be honest—once you do get it right, you’re going to feel like an actual sorcerer.
So grab that pencil, channel your inner limitless power, and start drawing. Just remember: If Gojo himself saw your first attempt, he’d probably just smirk and say, Not bad. Try again.
