As it turns out, Mariya Ise was cast in Jujutsu Kaisen season two to bring Kid Gojo to life. A flashback sequence was featured in this week’s episode, and it was there fans met Gojo as a baby. The flashback continued to the point where Gojo was a kid, and Ise was able to capture a top-notch performance for the sorcerer.

In the past, Ise has also voiced Ray in The Promised Neverland as well as Levy in Fairy Tail. Now, Ise has added Jujutsu Kaisen to her list of works, and she snagged an impressive role thanks to Gojo. They don’t call him the world’s strongest, you know?
