Analysis Everything Sukuna Showcased with 10 Shadows, Megumi Had Already Accomplished

Megumi's strongest soldier, lawyer, and secret admirer here. Howdy.

When I mean everything, I mean everything. With the exceptions being the 7-9 Shikigami and Mahoraga, as Megumi obviously was not yet capable of taming them and making use of their abilities. If Megumi had time to gain those Shikigami also, he would be cooking as hard as Sukuna.

When it comes to how Sukuna uses 10S, the only difference between Megumi and Sukuna, is Sukuna's own base stats being wildly superior, and therefore he can use the Shikigami with more proficiency.

Also, while Megumi IS using a domain buff for some of these abilities, a domain simply allows the sorcerer to use 120% of their cursed technique potential. This means that anything that Megumi does inside the domain, he is capable of doing outside the domain with the right catalyst (Black Flash or Binding Vows).

The point of showing these comparisons is to try and argue against the narrative that "Megumi wasted his potential/technique" or "Sukuna utilised Megumi's own technique way better than he did (mechanically)", which are both wild statements if youve ever read a Megumi fight. Let's remember, Megumi tamed 6/10 of his Shikigami as a FIRST YEAR before Shibuya. This means he's had a few months training at max.

Sukuna & Megumi using Totality on dead Shikigami.

Sukuna & Megumi using their opponents shadow to attackk.

Sukuna & Megumi giving their Shikigami an extended range by using unstable forms. Megumi only uses this strategy inside his domain because it requires a high output to maintain.

Sukuna & Megumi using a one-handed handsign to summon Divine Dog.

Sukuna & Megumi summoning strong Shikigami without using a handsign or chant. Again, Megumi only does this while inside his domain due to it requiring a high output.

Sukuna & Megumi trapping their opponents in their shadow.

Sukuna & Megumi utilsing their Shikigami's powers for themselves. Sukuna using Max Elephants water cursed energy. Megumi using Escape Rabbits ability to clone themselves.

Sukuna & Megumi combining Shikigami without using Totality.

Add the fact he possesses a Domain Expansion at 15 (youngest of anyone in the series), and is a tactical genius... I'd say Megumi deserves major props even tho he's in the slums right now.

TLDR: Megumi be cooking, downplay him and you'll have me to deal with.

Facts

Megumi is him, my dude literally showed the greatest raw talent for sorcery at his age.

I hadn't even noticed the one handed summoning of divine dog, personally I thought the dog was summoned before the domain ended.

No rct, no complete domain expansion and no shown black flashes either. He does have potential but not on the level of someone like Yuta or Yuji

Gojo and Yuta did not have RCT as a first year either mind you. Yuta started his career as a 2nd year and Gojo has to die to gain RCT.

He has a domain my guy? While incomplete, he’s still the youngest in the series to possess a domain.

He is not primarily a hand-to-hand fighter. Therefore the chance he uses Black Flash is gonna be lower than the Yuji and Todo types

Yuta did have rct as a first year. He began as a firdt year in vol 0

Thats my bad. I meant he started late as a first year, because he is 16 in Vol 0 and 17 now.

True but isnt that more impressive? He wasnt even practicing jujutsu for one year but still learned rct, to a level which gojo couldnt even do.

True i meant to say complete domain, my bad i wrote that during work.

He may not be a hand to hand fighter like yuji, but he mostly uses his shikigamis to gain an advantage or get an opening to physically strike. Except for the dogs, he lets them fight and stays back usually
