SuguShoko

SuguShoko is the het ship between Suguru Geto and Shoko Ieiri from the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom.

Canon
Suguru and Shoko first appear as second-year students at Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical College during Gojo’s Past Arc. Suguru and Shoko come to Mei Mei and Utahime Iori’s help, after they went on a mission and disappeared for two days. Suguru helps get rid of the dangerous curse, when Shoko arrives. When Utahime, Shoko’s friend, asks Shoko not to become like her two classmates (referring to them teasing her), Shoko says she would never become like them, disapproving of their antics describing her classmates as “trash”.

When Shoko and Suguru come back to the college, they discuss the purpose of sorcerers as a class with Satoru. After things start getting heated, Shoko, not wanting to participate in the quarrel, runs away. When Principal Yaga arrives and asks for Shoko’s whereabouts, Suguru says they don’t have any idea where she could be. When Suguru goes on a mission to retrieve Star Plasma vessel, he gets into a fight with Toji Fushiguro, who heavily injures him. After that, Suguru is taken to Shoko, who heals his wound.

One year after that, when Shoko and Suguru are in their third year, they help Satoru test the limits of his newly acquired abilities. They discuss the specifics of the technique with Gojo. Given Shoko’s unique ability, the faculty doesn’t send Shoko on dangerous missions, and she doesn’t spend as much time with Suguru, as she used to, when they were tasked with simpler missions. After Geto defects, the first person from his past life he comes to is Shoko.

Shoko is in the Shinjuju area, when Suguru finds her. She takes out her cigarette, when Suguru approaches and greets her with an easy smile. Shoko smiles back. Geto gets out his lighter and lights her cigarette. She smokes and they talk about Geto’s deflection. Shoko believes he is being childish when he says no one can understand his turmoil. She immediately calls Gojo and tells him where to find Suguru. To Gojo’s question whether she tried to do something, she says, she didn’t, because she doesn’t want to die. It is unknown whether the two have met afterwards. During the events in Shibuya, Shoko picks up her smoking habit again despite having quit sometime ago. When principal Yaga asks her about that she says she is feeling nostalgic about her student days.

Fanon
SuguShoko is not considered a popular ship, but it has its fans. The ship is more popular as a part of the SaShiSu trio. It is currently both Shoko and Suguru’s 3rd most written ship on AO3.

Fans of the ship prefer to believe Shoko had a crush on Suguru during their student days, and Geto’s deflection and death affected her greatly. It is notable, that the first time Shoko is seen smoking after Geto betrayed the jujutsu world and became a curse user. In fan arts Geto and Shoko are often depicted smoking together (resulted by their final scene in Gojo's Past Arc). It is unknown whether Geto smoked himself, some speculate that he carried around the lighter for Shoko.

The two are also a very popular side-pairing in many GojoHime fanfiction. Suguru and Shoko are often Satoru's wingmen as they try to help him confess to Iori while they themselves are already dating.
