The second season kicked off by taking viewers back in time to the school days of Gojo Satoru, along with his fellow students Geto Suguru and Ieiri Shoko. The events that unfolded during this period eventually led to Geto's transformation from a hero to a villain. After the tragic demise of Haibara Yu and an assignment that intensified Geto's frustration with non-sorcerer members of society, he decided to utilize his powers to mercilessly slaughter more than 100 non-sorcerers in the village where he was assigned. This horrific act, coupled with the killing of his own parents, marked his initial significant stride towards achieving his ultimate goal of eradicating non-sorcerers from existence.
