Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is easily one of the biggest anime of 2023, not only in terms of viewers but also when it comes to discussions. Whenever a new episode gets released, the show is all but guaranteed to trend.
One of the biggest moments of the season is Gojo’s pivotal moment early in the Shibuya Incident. As expected, many were saddened by this moment given that it’ll be the last time they'll see him in a while.

It’s not just international fans celebrating though. Despite the anime’s official Japanese X accounts not sharing anything about Satoru Gojo's birthday, fans took it upon themselves to commemorate his special day.
The hashtag #五条悟誕生祭2023 is trending today on X. In English, this hashtag means Gojo Satoru Birthday Festival 2023.
Many posts with this hashtag feature fanart and all sorts of tributes to Gojo. Interestingly, a lot of these fanart feature Gojo eating or making a strawberry shortcake.
This makes sense, not just because it’s his birthday. After all, it has been noted in the story that Gojo has a sweet tooth. Thus, enjoying a big slice of cake is no doubt his preferred way of celebrating.
The celebrations are a nice break from the anime’s rather depressing events. Fans will need to get ready for more heartbreak though, as Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 is getting a new episode soon.
