Okay, let’s get into it: Geto Suguru—that dark sorcerer we all love to hate. When you think of Jujutsu Kaisen, you probably think of Satoru Gojo first (I mean, who doesn’t?). But then there’s Geto JJK—his tragic, twisted counterpart. It’s like the world of jujutsu was split right down the middle: one side fighting to save humanity, the other, well… trying to wipe it out. Geto Suguru was the “evil” version of Gojo’s ultimate good. Yeah, it’s complicated.
Who is Geto Suguru?
The Early Days: A Friend, Then a Foe
Let’s rewind to when Geto Suguru and Satoru Gojo were just a couple of student sorcerers at Tokyo Jujutsu High. If you’d asked anyone back then, they’d say those two were unstoppable. In fact, you couldn’t even think of one without the other. They were the golden duo—their powers, their bond, their charm… the whole shebang. But, uh… things didn’t stay all sunshine and rainbows.
And here’s the kicker—Geto Suguru wasn’t always the dark sorcerer we know now. Nah, he was once the kind of guy who’d fight to save innocent lives. I mean, he even had a thing for protecting people, right? Well, until he started seeing the cracks in the system. Fast forward to when Geto JJK decided that non-sorcerers were just too weak to protect. Yeah. That’s when he turned on his own kind. Who knew someone that cool could go so dark, huh?
The Ideological Shift: From Hero to Villain
“Only Jujutsu Sorcerers Deserve to Live”—Say What Now?
Now, this is the part where Geto Suguru starts becoming a little… let’s say, “misunderstood” in the worst way possible. He saw it all: the ugly side of humanity, the weak non-sorcerers who couldn’t even defend themselves. This was after some seriously messed-up stuff went down during one of his missions (we’ll get into that later, trust me). Long story short? Geto JJK flipped the script—decided humanity wasn’t worth saving, especially the ones who couldn’t wield jujutsu.
And, just to be crystal clear, Geto Suguru wasn’t looking for a cure to the world’s ills. Oh no. He wanted a whole new world. One where only jujutsu sorcerers got to exist. Bold move, right?
The Big Decision: Extermination Time
At some point, Geto Suguru said “enough is enough” and made a real name for himself by killing hundreds of innocent people (yeah, you read that right). Bye-bye to his friendly sorcerer days. Hello to the rise of Geto JJK, a villain with a mission to change the world. Not the best way to go about it, but hey, there’s always a twist, right?
The Evolution of Geto Suguru’s Powers
Curse Manipulation: The Weapon of Choice
One thing you can’t ignore about Geto Suguru is his powers. Dude didn’t just kill people—he manipulated curses. Imagine if you could control the very thing trying to kill you. Now that’s a supervillain vibe right there. Geto JJK could absorb cursed spirits, control them, and use them as his army. He was like a one-man army of terror. Every cursed spirit that got in his way? They were his to command.
It gets even crazier—Geto Suguru didn’t just play the game. He changed the rules. He could build an entire army, and man, he was good at it. That was some next-level stuff. The kind of power you don’t want to mess with.
Maximum: Uzumaki—Say What?
This isn’t your regular attack. Maximum: Uzumaki—a power that would make even the strongest sorcerers look twice. Geto Suguru used it to release a wicked burst of compressed cursed energy. The moment he unleashed it, all bets were off. It’s one of those “I’m either about to win or be obliterated” kind of moves. Totally game-changing. And if you were on the receiving end, well… let’s just say you were in trouble.
The Relationship Between Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru
The Ultimate Bromance Gone Wrong
At first, Geto Suguru and Gojo were it. The strongest duo. But, as we all know, friendships don’t always last. Geto JJK started growing apart from Gojo—both literally and ideologically. It wasn’t just about power anymore. It was about belief. Gojo believed in saving humanity (even the weak ones), while Geto Suguru thought, “Let’s get rid of the weak ones.” Yikes, right? It’s like they hit a fork in the road and couldn’t turn back.
The Final Showdown: Brother vs Brother
Here’s where it all gets heartbreakingly messy. Gojo and Geto Suguru had a final face-off that changed everything. Gojo, still holding on to the brotherly bond they once had, had no choice but to fight his best friend—his brother, really. And the fight? It was brutal. Geto JJK’s whole life had been leading to that point. He wasn’t just fighting for power—he was fighting for his belief system. But Gojo wasn’t gonna let him win. Not on his watch.

The Cult Leader Phase
Fast forward to Jujutsu Kaisen 0, and bam, Geto Suguru is back—but in full villain mode. Now he’s not just an ex-sorcerer. Nah, he’s the leader of a cult. Yeah, cults are a thing now. He’s out here trying to unleash chaos with Rika Orimoto, a seriously powerful cursed spirit, and make his dream of exterminating non-sorcerers a reality.
Man, I remember watching this arc and being like, “Dang, he’s gone full throttle.” There’s no going back for Geto JJK at this point.
The Final Scene: An End, But Not Really
But hey, even villains have their day. Gojo takes down Geto Suguru—the real one—for good. And, just when you think that’s it, there’s a twist: Kenjaku takes over Geto Suguru’s body. It’s like, “Okay, you thought he was gone? Think again.” The body might be dead, but the chaos? Far from over.
Why Do We Love (and Hate) Geto Suguru?
The Villain We Love to Hate
I mean, let’s be real: Geto Suguru is one of those characters that’s just too interesting to forget. Sure, he’s got some messed-up views, but his reasons? They’re kinda understandable—if you squint. We get it. The system’s broken. But that doesn’t mean you get to just kill people, Geto JJK.
Also, fun fact: he’s got one of the coolest looks in the entire series. I mean, c’mon, the black robe, the piercing eyes, the whole “I’m about to wreck your life” vibe? Iconic.
Some of Geto Suguru’s Top Moments
- The Speech: You know the one—when he declares that jujutsu sorcerers are the only ones worth saving. Yeah, that set the tone for everything.
- The Final Showdown: Watching Gojo and Geto Suguru clash was like watching two forces of nature collide. Pure chaos.
- Kenjaku Reveal: Did anyone see that coming? Talk about a mind-bender.
The Legacy of Geto Suguru
Even in Death, He’s Still Haunting Us
Okay, so the real Geto Suguru is dead, but here’s the thing—his influence? Still going strong. Kenjaku is out here living his best life in Geto JJK‘s body, which means this villain is far from done. Sure, his body’s been hijacked, but his story? Nah, it’s just getting started.
Conclusion: The Tragic Hero of Jujutsu Kaisen
Look, Geto Suguru is complicated. He’s not a straight-up villain—he’s a guy with ideals that went too far. His fall from grace is heartbreaking, and his motivations are understandable, even if his actions are… well, less than heroic. But that’s what makes him one of the best characters in Jujutsu Kaisen. You can’t help but be fascinated by his journey. From student to villain, from ally to enemy, Geto Suguru is the definition of tragic.
Anyway, here’s the kicker: in a world where heroes are often black and white, Geto Suguru proves that sometimes, it’s the gray areas that make things really interesting.
