Design-wise, Gouto looks like a small black cat with bright green eyes. While not shown in his artwork, he wears a grey collar in which he carries a small notebook and pen.

Gameplay

Gouto does not participate in combat, instead acting as Raidou's guide and mentor.

Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army

If Raidou uses a Foxtail when Gouto is with him, Gouto will remind him that he is not actually a cat. If Raidou keeps using foxtails up to a total of 9 times, Gouto will eventually give him a Bead of Life, a Great Chakra, and a Soma.

Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon

In King Abaddon, Gouto will make entries into the Detective's Notebook, providing summaries of the information he and Raidou have learned about their investigations.
Similar to in the first game, after using foxtails 9 times Gouto will give Raidou a Soma.

Manual Descriptions
Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon	This is no ordinary feline. He travels with Raidou Kuzunoha the 14th, offering advice and sharing his vast knowledge on summoning. No one really knows why this fellow's in the body of a black cat, but only Devil Summoners can understand his words. Regular passersby just hear purrs and meows.

Gouto first appears in the beginning of the game in the Kuzunoha Training Hall after Raidou has completed his trial and been given the title of Raidou Kuzunoha XIV. After being given the duty of protecting The Capital, Gouto-doji is assigned as Raidou's partner. Gouto is skeptical of Raidou's capabilities, and complains that the Raidou name used to command respect.

Trivia

• Gouto-douji uses Ore (俺) as first-person pronouns In the Japanese version of Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army, while he uses Ware (我) in Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers, Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster, and Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army.
• In Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army, when Raidou gives an offering of yen at the shrine in Dark Sakuradayama and summons the spirit for the first time, Gouto's dialogue box will display his portrait and name like normal even after his body is destroyed in episode 11.
  • In Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army, Gouto's portrait and name inconsistently switches between using "Gouto" and "Gouto's voice" after Goto takes his place.

Nomenclature

His name is a combination of 'Gou' (業) for karma, 'To' (斗) for struggle, and 'Douji' (童子) for youth. It signifies 'One who has committed sins and bears the duty to fight'.
