Suguru Getō began his journey as a compassionate, duty-bound sorcerer at Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu Technical High School, partnering with Satoru Gojo to safeguard non-sorcerers. His formative years brimmed with idealism until trauma fractured his worldview. A mission to protect Star Plasma Vessel Riko Amanai ended in her assassination by Toji Fushiguro, followed by the Star Religious Group’s grotesque celebration of her death. This betrayal, compounded by the loss of junior Yu Haibara and discovering abused sisters Mimiko and Nanako Hasaba—tormented by villagers—catalyzed his disillusionment with protecting those he deemed unworthy. Observing how non-sorcerers’ unchecked negativity spawned curses, he branded them “monkeys” and sought radical change. A pivotal dialogue with Yuki Tsukumo, who advocated eradicating cursed energy or teaching humanity to harness it, inspired his third path: systematically exterminate non-sorcerers to forge a sorcerer-only utopia. This conviction drove him to slaughter 112 villagers to rescue Mimiko and Nanako, an atrocity that marked his formal exile from Jujutsu High. Operating as a curse user, he donned Buddhist priest vestments, manipulating the Time Vessel Association to stockpile cursed spirits and resources. His strategic brilliance shone through the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons—a dual assault on Kyoto and Shinjuku designed to isolate Yuta Okkotsu and seize his bound spirit Rika. Though sorcerers intervened and Yuta’s unleashed power foiled his scheme, Getō’s defeat culminated in a final meeting with Gojo, who fulfilled his lethal request amid lingering emotional tension. Postmortem, his corpse became Kenjaku’s vessel, exploiting Cursed Spirit Manipulation to merge humanity with Tengen and reignite jujutsu’s golden age. This possession obscured distinctions between his original vision and external manipulation. Tall and imposing with long black hair often secured in a man bun, he later adorned monastic garb. His combat prowess relied on absorbing cursed spirits as orbs, unleashing them through techniques like Maximum: Uzumaki—coalescing absorbed spirits into devastating energy blasts—though he never manifested a domain expansion. A duality defined his relationships: fierce loyalty to sorcerers juxtaposed with contempt for non-sorcerers. He maintained calculated civility toward jujutsu peers, even feigning rapport with Yuta pre-conflict. His bond with Gojo, once anchored in mutual strength and respect, shattered under ideological divides, yet their parting exchange revealed unresolved emotional depths. His arc traces the corrosion of idealism into fanaticism, fueled by systemic decay and personal anguish. As a tragic antagonist, he challenges rigid moral frameworks, propelled by his crusade to forge a purified world from one he judged irredeemable.
