GojoHime

GojoHime is the het ship between Satoru Gojo and Utahime Iori from the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom.

Canon
Gojo and Utahime are teachers at Tokyo Jujutsu Tech and Kyoto Jujutsu Tech respectively. They've known each for over 10 years, presumably since Gojo's second year, with Utahime being 3 years older.

Gojo is often seen teasing Utahime, eventually getting on her nerves. Due to their relationship, Utahime is quite used to his teasing and even though she gets agitated, they manage to get along when in action. In Episode 14, once Utahime and the Kyoto students arrive for the Sister School Goodwill Event, she asks everyone where 'the idiot' is, in reference to Gojo. As soon as this is said, he appears, to which Utahime reacts with "Tsk. Gojo Satoru", with a rather disapproving look on her face. He's seen rolling a metal box along with souvenirs for the Kyoto students from his overseas business trip, but notes that none are for Utahime, clearly teasing her. She responds with annoyance, claiming that she wouldn't need one anyway. While Principal Yaga is explaining the event, he is holding down Gojo and Utahime can be seen laughing softly at him.

While Gojo is explaining to Utahime why he believes that a human is working with curses, Utahime asks him what would he do if she was the traitor to which Gojo responds that it can't be her since she's too weak and doesn't have the guts to try and betray them. In response, she throws her drink at him. Gojo then tells her that hysterics won't win men.

At the beginning of Episode 15, Gojo is counting down for the start for the start of the event, and when there's one minute left, he asks Utahime to say some words of encouragement. Since Utahime wasn't ready, she struggles to say something, and stutters. Gojo cuts her off after she musters something by saying "time's up!", making her angry. She continues to shout at Gojo for embarrassing her and tells him that he should respect his elders. In Episode 17, while Gojo and Utahime are watching the students, Utahime says that the students should just get along with each other. Gojo replies by saying "They must take after you, Utahime", but she says that Gojo is the only one that she has a problem with.

Some time later Gojo and Utahime are seen talking on the phone. Gojo briefly tells her about the first-year students, boasting about the triumphal ending of their last mission. He says their success must be the direct consequence of his "awesome teaching". Utahime interrupts him and tells him to hurry up, since it's her day off, and she doesn't want to waste her time talking to him about college life. She mentions that staff members are all busy and cannot attend "a party", meaning she didn't find the traitor among the faculty. He figuratively asks whether the mole is a student, and she says that she will keep asking around.

Fanon
Having a relatively small fandom, this ship took off during the Kyoto Sister School Goodwill Event episodes. Their main trope includes "Opposites Attract", especially due to the extreme differences between the two personalities, with Utahime being more calm and Gojo being playful.

This ship is largely popular within Japanese fans, calling them the "Five Songs Couple" (GoUta, in Romaji). Go (五) from Gojo's surname, which directly translates to "Five", and Uta (歌) from Utahime, which also directly translates as "Song". GojoHime has been popular within manga fans for some time now, which explains the relatively large amount of fanfictions and fanarts of the ship. Their interactions in the anime adaptation has also welcomed new shippers to the boat.

GojoHime is the only Utahime ship on the list of the TOP 30 most popular Jujutsu Kaisen ships in the Japanese fandom, scoring 11th place.

Trivia

 * According to the Official Fan Book, there are certain contrasts between their personalities as well as their aesthetics: Utahime dislikes sweets and enjoys drinking alcohol, while Gojo likes sweets and dislikes alcohol. Utahime has purple/black hair and wears white clothes, whereas Gojo has white hair and wears purple/black clothes.
 * Gege mentioned that chapter's title "Accomplices" refers to all duos who appeared in Ch.63. Which makes Gojo and Utahime accomplices too.
 * Gojo is listed as Utahime's source of stress, despite the two living very far away from each other.
 * According to the Official Fan Book, Utahime's "You should respect your seniors" vs Gojo's "Doesn't matter to me~" was what started his teasing. After that, it became a reflex.
 * Gege Akutami said, that Gojo is not aware that Utahime hates him and thinks of her bad attitude as a joke.
 * Gojo tampered with the suggestion box to add on option for baseball, a sport Utahime is a fan of (to rule out Yuji being killed in individual competitions); "Utahime, the one into the baseball game the most!" said by Gege in his sketch of Utahime and Momo.
 * Gojo's and Utahime's Japanese voice actors share the same teasing dynamic as the characters they portray. Nakamura Yuichi (Gojo's VA) likes to call Hikasa Yoko (Utahime's VA) "old hag" and jokes that she can't sing cute songs.
 * In Jujutsu Kaisen's Brazilian Portuguese dub, when Utahime throws tea at Gojo, he responds with, "Ow! Retract your claws, kitten!" (In the dubbed version, "Ih! Recolhe as garrinhas, gatinha!") In Brazil, the word 'gatinha' means 'kitten' but it's used as a colloquialism to compliment women when they are considered beautiful.
 * In 2021, Jujutsu Kaisen collaborated with Niigata Rice Cracker Museum & Bakauke Inari. One of the crackers' packages depicts Gojo and Utahime as small, cartoonish crackers, Borin and Barin, characters who frequently promote this brand and are considered boyfriend and girlfriend respectively.
 * In the seasonal Japanese calendar, Gojo's birthday (7th of December) happens to be in the time period called Taisetsu (Big Snow), around 5th-8th of December, it is the time when the cold sets in, heavy snow falls, and big animals begin to hibernate. Utahime's birthday (18th of Febrarury) is close to the period called Usui (Rain Waters), 19th-23rd of February, it is the time when snow, that has already started melting, recedes even more, the weather begins to warm up, and it starts raining more often than snowing. Japanese fans like to see it as Utahime possibly "warming up" to Gojo.
 * On the cover page of chapter 34, the background pattern used in Utahime and Gojo's panel is called Yagasuri (Arrow Feathers), a traditional pattern usually worn for different ceremonies, such as weddings and graduations, as a good luck charm. However, in the panel, the arrows are horizonal and not vertical like in its original design. Japanese fans believe the arrows pointing from Gojo's direction to Utahime's might be a hint of Gojo's feelings, as the meaning behind the design is the saying “an arrow fired, never returns.”
 * Utahime and Gojo are shown to have opposite teaching styles. While Utahime is the kind to encourage her students to work as a team and support each other, Gojo prefers to emphasize the importance of individual strength, as he considers it crucial to survive and strive as a sorcerer . It's also noted that the Kyoto students have good skills for planification on the battlefield as well as a better performance in the classroom compared to the Tokyo students , which would indicate Utahime's teaching methods are more theoretical, in contrast to Gojo who leans heavily on being practical and taking the students on missions.
 * In chapter 34, Gojo announced the start of the goodwill event and was proceeded by Utahime’s “respect your seniors!” line. This is actually a reference to Ichiro Suzuki, a Japanese baseball superstar, who said the same line in this video during a tournament. Gojo is also shown to be a fan of the baseball player as he’s seen in the manga doing body stretches like how Suzuki does it. These could imply that Gojo and Utahime are probably both fans of Ichiro Suzuki.
 * In chapter 33, Gojo asked Utahime to investigate things at the Kyoto side, and according to Hakari in chapter 157, it's understood that when a sorcerer asks another sorcerer for help, it's like asking to risk their lives together.
