Special Grade Sorcerers
Special Grade Sorcerers are the highest classification within the Jujutsu world, a rank defined not by technical skill but by catastrophic potential. The source does not detail the formal definition of this rank, its history, or the exact number of members. However, it is clear that these individuals possess power on a scale that can single-handedly alter the course of major conflicts. The most prominent example is Satoru Gojo, explicitly called "the strongest sorcerer in the modern Jujutsu world," whose power and influence were so great that his sealing by Kenjaku was the primary goal of the Culling Games plot, as his absence allowed chaos to erupt.

Lore & Background
The source provides specific details about one Special Grade Sorcerer: Satoru Gojo. He is identified as Megumi Fushiguro's teacher and the strongest sorcerer in the modern era. His power was such that his presence maintained order within the Jujutsu world, and a group of intelligent Cursed Spirits, led by Suguru Geto (later revealed to be Kenjaku), orchestrated an elaborate attack specifically to seal him away. Gojo's battle with Ryomen Sukuna is a key event: after being unsealed, he fought Sukuna and nearly won, but dropped his guard, allowing a weakened Sukuna to fatally bisect him. Another Special Grade Sorcerer is Yuta Okkotsu, a second-year student who was appointed by the Jujutsu higher-ups as Yuji Itadori's executioner. Loyal to Gojo, Yuta instead helped Yuji fake his death. Later, Yuta used Kenjaku's copied Cursed Technique to switch bodies with Gojo, creating a distraction that allowed him to behead Kenjaku. The source does not list any other confirmed Special Grade Sorcerers or provide a formal definition of the rank's criteria.
In Their Own Story
The source details several key moments involving Special Grade Sorcerers. Satoru Gojo's sealing is a central plot point: on Halloween night in Shibuya, he destroyed the Curse Hanami but was ultimately sealed by Kenjaku, who was inhabiting Suguru Geto's corpse. This event triggered chaos. Later, after being unsealed, Gojo battled Sukuna. The source states Gojo "nearly wins but drops his guard, causing a weakened Sukuna to fatally bisect him." Yuta Okkotsu's actions are also critical. He was appointed as Yuji's executioner but instead helped him fake his death. Yuta later confronted Kenjaku, using a distraction from Fumihiko Takaba to catch Kenjaku off-guard and behead him. In the final battle against Sukuna, Yuta used Kenjaku's copied Cursed Technique to switch bodies with Gojo, momentarily stunning Sukuna. The source does not describe any other specific missions or battles involving Special Grade Sorcerers in abandoned districts or other locations.
