Character Discussion Who is the better villian: Geto or Kenjaku?

[serkeara]

I prefer Kenjaku as a villian. His character is more complicated. He is sadistic, scientific, mastermind while having a sense humor.

Geto has a nice backstory, but, in my opinion, he is too straightforward.

Geto, the brain in a jar killed a lot of my interest in JJK.

Between those two, Geto wins. Overall, Mahito wins.

 

[MonsterKaido]

Both. Geto by some margin.

It's 50/50 for me
I grew to like Kenjaku, and I liked Geto. But if I could only keep one it would be Geto, but have him be more powerful and threatening

Kenjaku

Geto, the brain in a jar killed a lot of my interest in JJK.

Why?

 

[Roo]

Geto because Kenjaku's role has just been "eviler/smarter" Mahito

 

[Midnight Delight]

Geto because Kenjaku's role has just been "eviler/smarter" Mahito

Personality wise? Kind of, Mahito is more childish due to his age and Kenjaku is more bohemian but they have have that snarky Flamboyant style

Goals? Not at all, Mahito is a sadist while Kenjaku is just amorally curious

Mahito loves to torture people for the fun of it. Kenjaku only does what he does because he wants learn more about jujutsu to satisfy his curiosity

Geto >

His descent into madness was very well done and the movie + Hidden Inventory arc solidified him as one of my favorite characters

Kenjaku is cool but Geto’s up there as one of my favorite manga antagonists

 

[Natalija]

Geto any day, writing him out of the story before he could truly shine was abysmal.

The single most interesting thing Brainman has showed so far is being into comedy

 

[IceWitch]

Geto for me. His tragic fall from grace into madness makes him more interesting for me.

 

[Ice devil slayer]

Geto easily

His arc was amazing

The best written character in jjk imo

 

[Moegara]

Geto is my favorite JJK villain.

Kenjaku may be more important for the plot (Geto was never even really "in the plot", just in the prequel and flashbacks), and some super important puppet master from millennia ago, but he's just a good villain. Geto was a great villain.
