· New limited characters, Swimsuit Itadori and Swimsuit Gojo, have been revealed for the 2.5th anniversary of 'Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade'.
· Some of their performance details have been released, and we will analyze their performance based on actual gameplay footage.

· Swimsuit Itadori is a 'Shadow' attribute character and a powerful melee attacker who truly shines when entering a Zone.
· His ultimate skill automatically activates Skill Zones and Auto Skill Zones upon activation, granting self-buffs and additional effects to his Command Skills.
· Additional effects include increased Flame damage for the Shadow attribute and a support ability that grants 'Skill Gauge Up' to one adjacent ally.
· This is likely to replace existing Flame damage debuffs, and he is expected to perform strongly as a melee attacker.
· Enhanced Zone Entry: Upon entering a Zone, he gains a Damage Up buff for 4 turns. He also possesses an 'Enhancement Debuff Load' (reduces buff effect amount, ignores buff cut) effect.
· Enhanced Command Skills: Command Skills are enhanced when in a Damage Up Zone. Skill 2 'Tapirakas' grants Skill Gauge Up to himself and one random ally. Skill 3 'Hasty Strike' grants Flame Damage Up for 3 turns.

· Swimsuit Gojo appears as a new type of buffer with the 'High' attribute.
· He is a powerful supporter who provides various buffs to allies, such as Melee Attack Up, Cursed Technique Up, and Extra Damage Up, and also recovers allies' cursed energy.
· His performance seems to combine the strengths of existing characters (Shizuku, Kusakabe, Yuki) into one.
· Preemptive Retreat & Buffs: He retreats preemptively after a certain number of turns, but his retreat turn can be extended by activating his ultimate skill. Upon preemptive retreat, he enhances buffs for participating allies and grants buffs to swapped-in characters.
· Post-Retreat Buffs: At the start of the turn after his retreat, he grants allies Melee Attack Up, Extra Damage Up, and a total of 3 buffs. The effect amount increases based on the turns elapsed until retreat, with effects lasting up to 12 turns.
· Skill Composition: Skill 1 is a melee skill with special effects for Extra Damage Up and Skill Gauge Up. Skill 2 provides Skill Gauge recovery and Skill Gauge Up support. Skill 3 'Passionate Guidance' grants Melee Attack Up. His ultimate skill provides various buffs, including Cursed Technique Up, Extra Damage Up, and effect turn extension.
· In particular, his ability to simultaneously grant Cursed Technique Up and Extra Damage Up is considered 'must-have' tier, and he is expected to usher in a new era.
