Cursed energy fuels the world of Jujutsu Kaisen. Cursed Energy is the power source for sorcerers, enabling them to perform Cursed Techniques. These techniques are essential for combating curses, supernatural entities born from negative human emotions such as hatred, fear, and despair. Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue is another potent technique demonstrated by Gojo Satoru.
Similar to its counterpart, Cursed Technique Reversal: Red, Lapse: Blue serves as a fundamental extension technique of the Limitless lineage inherited by the Gojo Clan. But, how does it work?
What is the Difference Between Lapse and Reversal?
Cursed techniques in JJK are activated by infusing cursed energy into them, utilizing either the Lapse or Reversal processes. Cursed energy functions like electricity, with cursed techniques acting as appliances that utilize this power. Users process cursed energy within themselves using a procedure similar to a mathematical formula to activate their cursed techniques.
Lapse Process
This technique involves the circulation of cursed energy in a forward direction. It’s the method most commonly used by sorcerers to unleash their cursed techniques. Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue uses this process.
Reversal Process
The Reversal process, on the other hand, is a more specialized and complex technique. Unlike the Lapse process, which relies on directing cursed energy forward, the Reversal process generates positive energy by multiplying negative energy. This unique ability allows users to not only counter curses but also to harness their negative energy and transform it into a force for good or positive outcomes.

Early Use
As a second-year student at Jujutsu High, Gojo was already known as one of the most powerful sorcerers alive and proficient user of the strengthened Limitless. Unable to use Red at the time, Satoru relied on the neutral Limitless and the power to attract in battle.
