What is the Prison Realm?
During the last few minutes of the episode, in flashbacks, Jogo can be seen conversing with Geto about how to execute the plan. Then Get tells him to make use of the citizens as Gojo will hesitate to expand his domain and hurt the citizens. However, Geto is fully aware that because of Gojo’s infinity, no one will be able to penetrate it and harm Gojo in any way. So, he asks Jogo to keep Gojo distracted and busy as long as he can. Geto asks them to entrap Gojo for a total of 20 minutes, and by then, he will execute his ultimate plan of unleashing the Prison Realm.
As the name suggests, it might be a cursed object that will be used to entrap Gojo inside it. As it is impossible to defeat the strongest sorcerer alive, the only way to execute the plan is to keep Gojo prisoner inside a realm that is away from sorcerers and humans. However, only in the next episode, will we find out if they are able to carry out their heinous plan successfully.
