Nendoroid Suguru Geto: Suit Ver. Review
Hello everyone! Arashi Bori here! I’m so glad you found my blog! I love to talk about upcoming anime figures and merchandise and share photos of my own collection. Nendoroids are my favorite, but I cover a wide variety of anime related subjects. Plus, I have a YouTube channel too, so feel free to check it out sometime! And thank you so much for tuning in; have fun reading!
Many people who love the popular series, Jujutsu Kaisen and its characters don’t know about some subtle designs, only featured in the manga’s colored pages. Akutami Gege Sensei and his assistants have put in the effort to create all sorts of amazing artwork in color. Some of which are serious, featuring prominent characters before their big fight scenes. But, others can be silly, and they may even show us some of our favorite characters in new outfits!
One of which being the cover picture for Chapter 77: Premature Death, Part 2. The illustration features Satoru Gojo and Suguru Geto on stage, wearing matching suits. The two of them seem to be having fun; it almost seems as if they are doing some sort of stage comedy or the like. Though the actual chapter had nothing to do with this image, Satoru and Suguru’s suit design seem to be a popular topic for merchandise. And of course, the Good Smile company is in on this action! They have transformed Satoru and Suguru’s suit versions into adorable nendoroid figures! For both Suguru Geto and Satoru Gojo, this will be their third nendoroid figure. Fans of these characters will surely be delighted to hear that the suit versions also come with a new faceplate, and a base that looks like their stage.
In this post, I will be covering Nendoroid Suguru Geto: Suit Ver. If you are interested in seeing photos from my own collection, feel free to check out @arashi_bori on Instagram! Anyway, let’s review this awesome new figure!
Jujutsu Kaisen “Sorcery Fight” is a massive hit manga and anime series by Gege Akutami. It has 2 seasons and a special movie for it’s prequel series, Jujutsu Kaisen 0. The story follows a boy named Itadori Yuji, who eats a mysterious finger belonging to the ancient curse Ryomen Sukuna. After eating it, it turns out he is the perfect vessel; and he must collect and eat all the other fingers before his execution. Jujutsu Kaisen focuses on a vast cast of students at the Jujutsu Technical high school. The story has some great characters, but in a dark world filled with curses and no mercy, it’s never good to get too attached.
Suguru Geto “夏油傑” is Satoru’s best friend and one of the strongest sorcerers. In hidden inventory, his values differ from himself in 0. The young Suguru wants to protect the weak. Over the course of the season, we discovered how some unfortunate events lead him down the wrong path.
Suguru Geto is looking his best in the suit! His new faceplate is his overjoyed, laughing expression. It’s also compatible with the previously released Suguru Geto nendoroids. Plus, this version comes with a microphone stand; you van use this to create all sorts of cool scenes! You may have noticed already, but his base is decorated with a wooden pattern that resembles the stage from the color page. He’s posed just like in the picture, holding his hands together above his waist.
I like this pose too! He seems to be holding his hand out, as if telling a joke or offering a suggestion. Now, I have noticed that his nendoroid’s shoes are brown, which bothers me because they were black in the manga.
He looks so happy doesn’t he? >~<
With Suguru Geto and Satoru Gojo, you can fully recreate the scene from the color page!
Nendoroid Suguru Geto: Suit Ver. is currently up for preorders, and he will release in the first quarter of 2025. You can preorder him from the Good Smile Online shop, the Good Smile US store, the Crunchyroll store, or Amiami.
In conclusion to this review, I loved their minimalistic approach to his suit version. Because, we don’t need a lot of extra faceplates or accessories for this one; and it’s nice to be able to get him for a cheaper price. Overall, I’m super pleased with this figure! I’m a huge fan of his suit version, so it delights me to know he’ll be receiving a nendoroid figure. The only problem I had was the shoes being slightly different than in the original color page, but that’s a pretty minor detail, isn’t it? Anyway, I definitely want to get this figure someday.
