* Anime
* Manga

**Manami Suda** (菅田 (すだ) 真奈美 (まなみ) , *Suda Manami*?) is a recurring character in the Jujutsu Kaisen series and its prequel *Jujutsu Kaisen 0: Jujutsu High*. She is a curse user who used to be Suguru Geto's secretary as well as a commander in his "family" of sorcerers. After Suguru's death, Manami and Toshihisa Negi both decided to carry on his will by joining the entity to who stole his body.

## Appearance

Manami is a young woman with long light-colored hair that reaches past her shoulders and bright eyes. In 2017 her hair was slightly shorter but it still extended past her shoulders. As Suguru's assistant, Manami wore a sleeveless black dress and long dark heels. During the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, Manami wore a white jacket with a fur collar.

A year later, Manami still wears dresses as her main attire. During the Shibuya Incident, she wore a different light-colored jacket over it that she wore over her shoulders without putting her arms in the sleeves.

## Personality

Manami Suda shares the same mindset as Suguru and their allies. She believes non-sorcerers are monkeys and can hardly believe they're of the same race. Suguru appeared to enjoy being with Manami when she was his assistant, showing a much kinder and playful side around her. Shortly after killing someone, the two of them took a selfie together to celebrate their family coming back together.

Following Suguru's death, Manami and Toshihisa agreed to work with Pseudo-Geto despite him stealing their master's body. Mimiko and Nanako wanted to kill Pseudo-Geto but Manami felt that was a childish idea. She agreed with Toshihisa that the best way to honor Suguru's will was to make the world he envisioned a reality.

## Synopsis

### Cursed Child Arc

Manami meets with Suguru, telling him that his commanders were in the meeting room. As they head towards the room, Kanemori appears and demands Suguru to exorcise his curse. Suguru then asks Manami on how much money Kanemori paid them, to which she replied that while he paid 150 million yen, Kanemori hasn't made any donations for the past six months. When Suguru kills Kanemori, Manami expresses her disgust and wonders if non-sorcerers were really the same species as sorcerers. She and Suguru then enter the room to meet with the rest of the commanders.

On December 24, 2017, Manami is in Shinjuku on top of a building along with Miguel, discussing their course of battle. They were then surprised when Satoru Gojo teleports away two of his students. Manami wonders if Gojo found out that Geto was in the college. She then informs Mimiko and Nanako of the change in the plans.

Some time later, Manami retreats along with the other commanders.

### Shibuya Incident Arc

Before the Shibuya Incident, Geto's commanders, with the exception of Miguel, discussed their course of action. Manami and Toshihisa chose to help Pseudo-Geto, while Nanako and Mimiko refused to work with the entity that was controlling their master. This conflict of interest almost led to a fight until Larue stopped them. Larue had them agree to part ways, but reminded them that they will always be family.

During the Shibuya Incident, Manami and Toshihisa appeared on top of a building calling out to Atsuya Kusakabe and Panda and recognising them as jujutsu sorcerers. They demand Kusakabe and Panda to surrender to which they decline. Their fight was interrupted by an explosion caused by the battle between Sukuna and Jogo. When Kusakabe advised them to retreat, Manami was among the sorcerers who Sukuna ordered to remain still as Maximum: Meteor approached her, being allowed to escape moments before impact.

## Abilities and Powers

**Overall Skill**: Little is known about Manami Suda's abilities. She appears to take more of a commander role in battle while Suguru is absent, delivering orders and such. As one of Suguru's commanders, it can be safely assumed Manami possesses considerable skills as a sorcerer.
