In Jujutsu Kaisen, Geto Suguru is the main antagonist who is responsible for the causing the infamous Night Parade of a Hundred Demons in the prequel, Jujutsu Kaisen 0. Afterwards, we see Geto slowly defect down the path of arrogance and wickedness. All of this was already foreshadowed, due to his twisted sense of Jujutsu Sorcerer superiority.
What is possessing Geto Suguru
It seems that a sinister cursed Sorcerer called Kenjaku is the one inhabiting Geto’s body. Kenjaku possesses extremely high intellect, which he used to trap the strongest sorcerer, Gojo.
Besides taking control of a body, Kenjaku can also inherit the deceased’s abilities. This makes him as frightening as the King of Curses, Ryomen Sukuna.
Why Is Geto Suguru So Important In Jujutsu Kaisen?
Fundamentally speaking, an antagonist shapes the entire plot of a series, and Geto to that extent is written exceptionally well by Gege Akutami.
Geto’s ideology was soon to entail a detestable age of Curses, but Gojo put a stop to that, well Gojo thought he did.
Geto’s death ultimately became the catalyst for what needed to be stopped, the age of Curses. So the way Geto Suguru as a character shapes the entire series is phenomenal, and without a doubt he serves as a pivotal piece of Jujutsu Kaisen’s fame.
