Gojo’s Long‑Awaited Triumph in the Teacher Survey
When Anime!Anime! opened its World Teachers' Day poll, fans were eager to see which charismatic mentor would claim the crown. Satoru Gojo, the flamboyant sorcerer from Jujutsu Kaisen, finally broke his four‑year runner‑up streak, securing first place with 16% of the 267 responses.
Why Gojo Resonated with Voters
Participants praised Gojo’s blend of unmatched power and genuine care for his students at Tokyo Jujutsu High. His willingness to risk everything for the next generation, especially after the tragic loss of his friend Suguru Geto, gave the poll a sentimental edge.
Meanwhile, Assassination Classroom’s Koro‑sensei slipped to second with roughly 14% of the vote, ending his six‑year reign at the summit. Hansuke Doi from Nintama Rantaro settled into third, followed closely by Ginpachi Sakata’s alternate persona from Class 3‑Z Ginpachi‑sensei.
