Throw on a poll please.
Time to show you guys why it's ๐>Sukuna.
I'll start with the obvious.
๐ literally says he can take him out. Right in front of Sukuna. And Sukuna keeps his mouth shut right there.
Gege, the author calls Satoru ๐ the strongest character in the show, after showing how full power Sukuna looks like.
Chapter 3. Full power Ryomen Sukuna shown.
Chapter 16, the author calls ๐ THE STRONGEST CHARACTER IN THE MANGA.
Moving on. I'll be talking about the switch in Sukuna's attitude after having found out that Megumi is a ten shadow curse user.
Sukuna goes from trying to kill him
however after figuring out that Megumi is a ten shadows user
Sukuna is concerned with him and saves him and wants to keep him alive, going so far as to even save Yuji. From a person who didn't care at all about anyone, and even tried killing Megumi himself, to carrying about Megumi's well being.
Now why would a man like Sukuna do that? Pretty obvious. We got an answer to it recently.
Years and years ago, the Zenin and ๐ family heads killed each other. The heads had the powers that ๐ and Megumi have.
Sukuna as a curse that has traversed ages and ages is fully aware of such a situation. That is the reason he is keeping Megumi alive. Sukuna is basing it on history repeating itself. He plans to use Megumi to defeat ๐, because he himself is incapable of it.
Sukuna is incapable of beating ๐.
And he himself knows that. That's why he is cultivating Megumi to take out ๐, basing it on the ordeal that took place many years ago. Does Sukuna strike anyone like a guy who would plan ahead if the obstacle in his way was weaker than him? Definitely not. Sukuna knows that he cannot beat ๐.
With the birth of ๐ the balance of the world was altered. Curses and curse users went into hiding because of him
If he should fall humanity is doomed
Curses worth up to 8 or 9 fingers of Sukuna
were shitting themselves at the thought of stalling ๐ for a minute.
Suguru Geto, someone who is capable of assessing curses and how they stack up to Sukuna's fingers, informs the curses that in order to win the war they need to immobilize ๐ and make an ally of Sukuna. Pay attention to how it is worded. Geto says they need to fulfill two conditions. Immobilizing ๐ and getting SUkuna on their side. That means that if they only fulfill one, i.e. get Sukuna on their side but do not immobilize ๐ or remove him from the fight they cannot win. Even with Sukuna and multiple special grade curses they cannot win against ๐
Why you may ask?
What's wrong Sukuna stans??
๐ puts your boy 6 feet under.
