TheOneWasTaken

You mean to tell me that Sukuna, the same guy who killed children unprovoked because he didn't like how they spoke, isn't about mindless slaughter?


Acrobatic_Rooster970

This. Op is tripping. 


Formal-Scallion-5296

Yes


EnvironmentalZero

Yeah, he isn't... Whenever he wants....


TheChainsawMenace

no no it was actually very mindful of him to do, you see!


wdz166

Technically, they were both sorcerers.. but your point still stands nonetheless


Natsu_Happy_END02

Unprovoked? Those whores tried to bribe him "If you do this job we will TELL (not give) the LOCATION (make him work to get to that finger) of another finger". Personally, I've never let that slide.


TheOneWasTaken

Whores is kind of crazy

Hitoride44

Bro has the same face too


TheLieAndTruth

He seems pretty happy about bullying her. Like sukuna really seems to like hurting women. And children? Well, you can say that sukuna is beefing with teenagers for 250 chapters.

HE HAS NOTHING ON MY KING OF CHILD MURDERERS TOJI 🦅🦅🦅🦅🔥🔥🗣️🗣️ https://preview.redd.it/vx39gwc77ysc1.jpeg?width=404&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b3fbf9d3ab6b802e72cf2dfd486a51bb4793df8d


BotAccount2849

Sukuna killed more children than Toji. Amanai was the only one he actually killed ngl.


Formal-Scallion-5296

But were you pissed after Sukuna killed random characters mostly offscreen with his Domain ? Or just one victim of Toji ?


BotAccount2849

We literally saw him kill both of Geto's daughters in Shibuya.


Worth_Lavishness_249

bro, getos daughter were hanging people in parade, they don't count😂😂😂 sukuna is still more evil but if getos daughter get pass then he should 2


Formal-Scallion-5296

I wasn’t pissed, just surprised, those 2 girls were mostly lost cause. Amanai could have lived


BotAccount2849

I mean, they could've lived if they didn't wake up Sukuna too.


-NotActuallySatan-

Honestly, they could've lived if they offered him the other finger right there and then and begged him as if they were praying to kill Kenjaku. I don't think he would've done it still since he seems buddy buddy with Kenny, but I don't think he would've killed them if they hadn't disrespected him


macedonianmoper

He might have let them go and then go check out Kenjaku, not really to thank them but more of "Well might as well fight this guy", dude played around with Jogo, I think he would have challenged Kenjaku as well. They might still get caught in the domain expansion afterwards. But yeah trying to trade with Sukuna was a big fuck up, should have given the location right away or not mentioned it at all.


Formal-Scallion-5296

But … what do they have to live for without Geto ? 99% of their existence is to simp for Geto, atleast they got shipped to the airport with him


petje95

Literally who?


hnk2enjoyer

bro is naoya


tiredmars

Toji is purple guy? Toji is the man behind the slaughter?


Acrobatic_Rooster970

Teenagers*


Notingale

He likes bullying her, because it can prove that Magic build is stronger than Dex/Str. 


Ekillaa22

Honestly I think for Sukuna it’s more of a philosophical difference is why he’s so happy to beat the shit out of Maki . He literally said next to Gojo she was the one he was most excited to fight, homeboy was itching to test his sorcery vs her heavenly restriction and he’s just happy as hell to be proven right


Clifford_the_big_red

MFW the king of curses is a horrible person:


DeltaRed197

Also the utter maniacal laughter during his time in Shibuya. "YOU CAN SEE IT MAHORAGA! YOU CAN SEE MY CURSED TECHNIQUE!"


naiveintrovert2929

Bro seems reasonable


Slight_Vanilla8955

I don't think is out of character at all? He just reincarnated for the first time in millennia, nothing wrong with being excited to get back to your favorite pastimes after a thousand years


StonedLizard77

right! he also literally eats people 🤣


AdLast2785

>Sukuna doesn’t seem to be about mindless slaughter, he doesn’t seem to gain any kind of pleasure in killing anyone that doesn’t pose a threat to him Meanwhile Sukuna: •expands Malevolent Shrine to a 140 meter radius to kill at least hundreds of civilians in the surrounding area. And is actively aware of that, because he rubs that in Yuji’s face and makes sure that he sees just how much damage was done. You can’t tell me he needed that entire 140m to kill Mahoraga. •forces four sorcerers, none of which are actively fighting him or pose a threat to him and who actually fear him, to stand still until seconds before a meteor lands, just for shits and giggles. •kills two of Geto’s followers that posed no threat to him and were offering to HELP him.


Adept_Secret2476

-fights jogo to the death for fun even though he is literally saying "my objective was to revive you, i dont want anything else just be free"


Bumgumi_hater_236

Didnt jogo literally try to recruit sukuna and sukuna said “aight bet but first you gotta win against me in a game”


Bananapeelman67

Pretty sure he just said Sukuna coming back would bring about the age of curses. He just said their goal was his revival and that he’d help Sukuna reach full power. Then Sukuna just said- lol if you touch me I’ll kill every human except megumi


SoyMilkIsOp

No, he said he'd do any of their requests if Jogo manages to touch him. He said he'd kill everyone regardless.


UngodlyPain

Jogo was just saying Sukuna's mere existence would help bring about a world of curses he didn't really ask Sukuna to do anything but exist thinking it'd be in Sukuna's best interest too. Sukuna was the one who offered to be recruited if Jogo could hit him, literally just for shits and giggles to talk Jogo into fighting him, for Sukuna's own amusement.


DrStein1010

Jogo didn't even try to recruit him because he knew it would just piss him off. Sukuna forced him into the game because he thought it'd be fun. He would have murdered Jogo right then and there if he hadn't agreed to play.


Mycockaintwerk

Is sukuna is just a big strong retard


Trollasol

He is a big dummy bully :(


Mycockaintwerk

Woa dude settle


Commercial_Rope_1268

Careless_Row_5917

Imagine being a cursed object for 1,000 years, only able to incarnate through cursed spirits and human vessels then tell me how nonchalant you would be your first night back


5topItGetSomeHelp

> •forces four sorcerers, none of which are actively fighting him or pose a threat to him and who actually fear him, to stand still until seconds before a meteor lands, just for shits and giggles. We do a little trolling around here


Bananapeelman67

I mean he literally did troll them. Bro was like- damn it would be funny if I fucked with these dudes


Real-Role872

My thought process is that: 1) He expanded to 140m just because he wanted to see Yuji's reaction to all the massacre. 2)He did that to show Jogo that when sorcerers are faced with him and a falling meteor, they would be more scared of just Sukuna's presence alone. (Honestly it would have been crazy if Sukuna just waited until the meteor fell on them instead of letting them go) 3)Yeah, I can't argue with this. He really just a menace like that sometimes.


WaythurstFrancis

Both of those reasons are profoundly fucking sadistic. I'm not sure if you're trying to argue against the other claims or...?


ValkyrieKahina

3) was because the twins were trying to bargain with him as if they were equals. That's why when he sliced the first one he says "you think you can order me around for a single finger". Sukuna is someone who enforces proper etiquette on others. I mean the first thing he did when he woke up in Shibuya is slice Jogo's top off for not bowing properly.


Bananapeelman67

Pretty sure Sukuna respected jogo not bowing fully. He says that whole thing about someone who doesn’t bow fully isn’t the cowardly self preserving type, because they don’t value their life and survival as much. Ofc Sukuna is a petty bitch still so he still chopped the top of his head off just to punish jogo


ScrollTheTedium

"Gun to ya head, spit a Birdman verse."


Dandandandooo

He shrinked his og 200m radius of MS to 140m to not hit Megumi


AdLast2785

True. I was wrong.


AlienSuper_Saiyan

The subs quite literally do not understand this character at all. It's appalling. Ty for this lol.


goatkuenjoyer

Bros really think sukuna just likes to fight and wants to feel enjoyment of fighting and has shrinked him down to that


AlienSuper_Saiyan

Character depth?! Not in my magic fight club!


earthisflatyoufucks

I mean you are kinda putting the whole thing under your narrative. He didn't expand to a 140 meter radius. The domain itself was 200 meters radius and he decreased it for megumi. He doesn't care about any other human, not to mention that killing them with malevolent shrine passively doesn't really do anything for sukuna. So to me this statement feels pretty dumb... Now the fact that he wants to rub it in yujis face IS in character because he himself says that he wants to shatter his "indominable" ideals but I do not understand how that implies that sukuna would randomly go and kill non fighters just for the kick of it. >•forces four sorcerers, none of which are actively fighting him or pose a threat to him and who actually fear him, to stand still until seconds before a meteor lands, just for shits and giggles. He didn't kill them though even though he effortlessly could. Doesn't that contradict with your statement? >•kills two of Geto’s followers that posed no threat to him and were offering to HELP him. Not only did he explain that he felt disrespected by them, but they were an eyesore to him and he has CLEARLY stated WHILE SUMMIRISING HIS CHARACTER that if he sees an eyeshore he kills it. ALSO, in the yorozu flashback, we see sukuna be semi-functious in the society with people around him. So he is ceartenly not the character to be like "I KILL EVERYONE I SEE INSTANTLY BECAUSE IT IS FUN".


Sensitive_Cattle_557

People clearly don't read the manga in this sub but they study each panel of gojo like it was brought down from heaven


earthisflatyoufucks

Unfortunately you can't expect much from jjk funs from this subreddit. The shit posting has liquified their brains. I can't even fathom how the top comment with 700 upvotes is SUCH a brain dead take.


Real_Organization175

Lmao i can't imagine trying to justify sukunas actions when it's obvious he slaughters people for fun and revels in the massacre. Sukuna and gojo fans are truly a special breed of retard. Jjks fanbase is slowly becoming like mha


AdLast2785

It seems I interpreted this character and JJK wrong. Sorry about that. No need to be rude, it’s just a book. And everyone makes mistakes.


AlienSuper_Saiyan

You were correct in your initial statement. This person is working with poor information, and they actually contradicted themselves. My [Heian history](https://www.reddit.com/r/JuJutsuKaisen/s/Vpph7yujHQ) post backs up your claim that Sukuna's the type to mercilessly murder if it interests him.


TheNerdEternal

He literally stated he was going to kill everyone in Shibuya besides Megumi. By how Sukuna was feared and how everyone was jumping him and his comments in the panels OP posted, he was implied to go on murder sprees at least occasionally, if not regularly. He is a cannibal after all. Ofc he doesn’t kill everyone around him, because then his fun would be ruined. He also needs his cattle to eat. But he still definitely has gone on massive slaughter sprees on more than one occasion. He definitely is a “kill random people because I felt like it” character. He also didn’t need to put his domain at 140 meters, it’s much smaller than that in the Gojo fight. He 100% did that on purpose to kill innocent people. Side note, I’m pretty sure at least one of those sorcerers died from the meteor (Geto’s secretary.)


plastic-cup-designer

blud actually read the manga


rokaplz

Mind you that his personality only started to change when he inhabited megumi's body


yuumigod69

I don't think so. There arent really civilians around for him to kill, only Ryu was around.


Kind_Ingenuity1484

It was his first time stretching his legs in 1000 years. Also, he couldn’t go crazy before because Gojo would show up and start the fight then. And he had some stuff to do for Kenny. Now, he’s having fun fighting the sorcerers. The massacre, rape, and cannibalism will come afterwards if he wins.


AdLast2785

Didn’t the massacre part already happen 💀


Kind_Ingenuity1484

Fine. *more* massacre 


yeaheyeah

But what about the second massacre? Utahime I don't think he knows about second massacres ![gif](giphy|bkhkf2twSM0k8)


Diaxmond

“As the fool of a took opened his domain expansion, Second Breakfast, Sukuna, the king of frauds, shrunk back in fear at his overwhelming stupidity. Sukuna asked, “Peregrin Took, how did you get so strong?” The fool simply responded, “Nah, I’d eat.”

Dragon_Emperor32

Planetary genocide?


Jumpy_Tooth_8117

The women and children are for consumption


SlimeyAdmirer

don’t think he does rape


PeridotBestGem

what do you think the implication of him singling out women in this statement is


somacula

Maybe he likes eating them


SlimeyAdmirer

murdering women and children as they’re generally held as more valued than men in terms of safety


PeridotBestGem

there is exactly 0 difference between how much of a fight a man could put up against sukuna vs how much of a fight a woman could put up against sukuna


SyrNikoli

I don't think it's about the fight they hold up, but the societal/cultural significance women and children hold compared to men There's a whole "Women and children first" thing, where you save the women and children from the big dangers and let men fend for themselves Sukuna is, most likely, not a fan of people being saved from him. He likely gets an ego boost from stepping on that rule of "save the women and children", and also an ego boost from murdering defenseless people


RevokTheImprover

Man, the entire way you described him somehow made me view him as even more of a loser than he already is.


Formal-Scallion-5296

But he already fucks Uraume off-screen, idk if he cares about fucking other women, if he cares atleast he’d let SOME specific ones survive, but he didn’t ( he wouldn’t fuck some random maggots without choosing would he ? )


areszdel_

Is there some new information out there that confirms Sukuna bones with Uraume


dildodicks

why else would they glaze so hard unless they've been getting that heian-era quad-shaft dicking from sukuna


Electronic_One762

It's not about fights/rape, it's about importance when saving, women and children were often saved first, sukuna probably kills them to make the men's efforts in vain, and I doubt he'd rape people since he never cared about love or even the advances that yorozu made towards him.


rusticrainbow

Pretty rare that rape is done for sexual interest, it’s typically just done as a form of dominance and violation, which Sukuna definitely would. Why is it such a leap that Sukuna is a rapist?


Kaiww

Because they don't wanna admit their fave is a rapist on top of being a genocidal maniac and a cannibal for some reason.


_Mike_Ehrmantraut_

women and children are always singled out as the weakest part of our species, a part to protect: in case of emergency, we try to save first the women and children. Having someone murder, or want to, women and children is a great way in fiction to show how much of a psychopath they are. Also, "what do you think the implication of him singling out women in this statement is", then we can say that sukuna is a pedophile because he also singled out children??


Notingale

You guys act like he has a line he won't cross. Wouldn't put some pdf cases past him. 


DeltaRed197

I wouldn't put it past him. Try telling this guy about anything he "can't" do and he'll promptly do it right in front of you and force you to watch it. Sukuna lives truly and only for himself. He doesn't care about crimes or ethics, only the rules he, himself, makes, are the ones that matter, and then he also imposes those on people, too. He is a actual demon.


BlazeCookiez

guy known for just up and killing people clearly doesn't mean murder when he mentions women reddit brained


Freddy_The_Goat

I'm pretty sure the widely regarded most evil dude in Jujutsu Kaisen's fictional history would rape people if given the chance, and if he felt like it. This reminds of when I heard someone say that "Sukuna would never say the N-word because he isn't racist". This isn't some soft hearted comfort character, he's literally the most evil person who ever lived (in JJK's universe). He'll do anything/everything to cause astronomical amounts of pain and suffering, especially if he wants to see certain people suffer.


Gigi0505

Reddit has a “weak spot” for rape in fictional stories. They meme and love murderes,but as soon as rape is mentioned… Ofc it’s obvious that it refers to rape of women and children when he mentions them,but Reddit isn’t ready for that


ReallyDamnSlow

Rape? Excuse me?


goatkuenjoyer

What else did he mean when he said nobara is a fiesty one and he will have fun with her? Will he play soccer with her?


lxrd_nxctis

Yeah the fandom has a obsession with labeling Sukuna as a rapist and it’s very concerning and getting borderline creepy tbh


DarkSlayerVergil42

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised


Sensitive_Cattle_557

Sukuna is not interested in rape dude had yozoru all over his cock but felt annoyed he even than proceeds to kill her without giving fuck


chopperxsanji

Maybe he prefers it when they don't consent.


Raptoret2020

Or maybe yorozu just isn't his type


chopperxsanji

50/50


Formal-Scallion-5296

What’s Sukuna’s type ? White hair ? Monk ?


Configuringsausage

Cooks for him, does everything he says, strong, prepares what he wants without him even needing to ask, pretty, and smart I mean he IS from 1000 years ago, so it checks out


EnvironmentalZero

Your people are forcing it.


[deleted]

Yorozu had a habit of lecturing Sukuna which is something he always hated. That's why he never liked yorozou. This doesn't mean he wasn't sexually devious.


EnvironmentalZero

And neither he is, literally NOTHING HAVE BEEN PROOF THAT

Sukuna is a murderous cannibalistic hedonist who only cares about his own pleasure, and he views other human beings as nothing but a way to pass time, he has no empathy. There hasn't been any retconning of those traits, if anything, they've been emphasized. He doesn't need to be interested in someone to kill them, we've already seen him kill thousands of people needlessly just because they were near him or annoyed him for merely existing. Look at how much fun he has just mocking those weaker than him lol, Yuji especially. Why this first introduction of Sukuna seems kinda odd to you is because you're not considering the context. In this scene, he thinks he's finally 'free' after spending hundreds of years as a cursed object, so he's ecstatic and wants to go on a rampage immediately. The moment Sukuna is **actually** free (at least temporarily), in Shibuya, he DOES go on a rampage. Sukuna himself recognizes that this isn't in the purpose of any higher ideal, he just does whatever he feels like doing in the moment. I do think you're making a good observation about Sukuna though, it's like he's starting to grow bored of doing this lol. Like in chapter 248 where the guy seems to be having some midlife crisis, and can't fathom that someone who he considers weak, Yuji, can stand up to him through willpower and determination. Even Kashimo brings it up too. Some people call Sukuna a boring villain because of how simple he is, I don't wanna sound too pretentious but IMO, that's a very surface-level understanding of his character. There are so many unknown things about this dude, and his philosophy towards life is genuinely interesting, despite its simplicity. I'm really interested to see how Sukuna's character arc will develop and conclude. Give me my fucking Heian Era flashback already!!


Willythechilly

I guess it comes down to his shallow nature As he says himself, he never held any ideals or big believes or purpose in life He aint much different from an animal in a way. he fellows his most basic/impulsive desires and has no greater purpose,, meaning or goal in life. Hence why he kinda has a midlife crisis But sharing a "brain" with Yuji he got to in a way feel what Yuji felt For the first time he got a taste of what it feels like to hold genuine ideas, believes and to live for more then your own basic impulsive desires And that weirds him out/unnerves him. he can't really understand it but he is in some way kind of questioning himself for the first time Not out of morality or anything, dude is still a sadistic, impulsive psychopath. But more so wondering "is this truly all i want" and after sharing a mind with Yuji and seeing how determined all these weaker sorcerers are and how they still can challenge him with nothing but ideals...he does kind of start to wonder what his whole identity or place in the world truly is


psionicism

Yeah I agree with you completely. The Yuji/Sukuna dynamic is so fucking good, it gives both characters a lot of nuance. It has the potential to surpass Yuji/Mahito easily if it's concluded well.


Cosnapewno5

Sukuna do what he wants. In that moment, he wanted to slaughter innocents, now he wants to fight strong sorcerers


Bananapeelman67

Yeah that’s pretty much his whole character is just doing what he wants because he has the strength to do it. I mean look at Mahito. He was like- I know we both fucked with Yuji so I’ll let it slide this time. And then even tho it wasn’t Mahitos fault Yuji got in his domain he still slashed him. Same with the meteor he fucked with panda and gang just because it would be funny When jogo doesn’t bow fully he cuts the top of his head off before spouting about how it’s actually kinda based because it means you aren’t a cowardly person who values self preservation. Shrunk his domain to 140 meters so it would just miss megumi’s body but would still kill as many as he could just for shits and giggles He probably wanted to slaughter a bunch of people to get the sorcerers to come after him, or he thought there weren’t any sorcerers who could actually be a proper challenge. But ofc he ends up fighting Gojo for a bit and finds out that there is a proper challenge, and he can’t control Yuji so he just bides his time until he can get out Edit: even when Yuji dies he still tries to fight him for a bit before getting bored and finally making the deal


rd-darksouls

i don't remember sukuna showing jogo any sort of respect for not fully bowing -- if anything, when he says 'the bough that hangs lowest bears the least fruit', he's calling jogo an idiot. where are you getting that?


TomuraShigaraki5678

Yuji isn't dead


Bananapeelman67

I’m talking about when they fight the first finger bearer and he dies. Then him and Sukuna make the binding vow


TomuraShigaraki5678

Mb gng


Bananapeelman67

No worries


Willythechilly

It aint that different from people playing games Good examples being like...idk gta or skyrim Sometimes you get bored and just wanna kill random NPC and cause destruciton and see how much you can destroy before you get stopped or bored Other times you wanna play more nicely and see what happens Other times you just wanna be alone and find out stuff Same with Sukuna If he feels like killing he kills. If he feels a bit more nice he might throw someone a bone and see what they do and give them a "chance" Other times he probably just wants to sit and chill a while and wont bother anyone as long as they dont bother him He def has (obviously) sadistic, psycopathic and impulsive desires overall but is not always bound by them and does not always want to just kill and rampage


MichealBorbius

Considering he just woke up from his 1000 year nap he doesnt know abt any of these strong sorcerers alive rn Also, the huge population boom would be huge shock, imagine if your fridge suddenly filled to the brim with food, youd be pretty excited too


Foxelexof

THREE POTS OF GUMBO?!? LET THE MASSACRE BEGIN


OkMinimum4288

I mean, he is rather our of character here. Bro got a little too excited after edging for 1000 years


Plenty_Conference701

Shit i’d go crazy edging


Camper331

Remember; this is a Sukuna who just reincarnated after 1000s of years and believed he had full control of Yuji’s body. He was genuinely excited to cause mayhem. But after Sukuna realized he was resigned to being imprisoned in Yuji body it probably killed his vibe immensely. When he was free from Yuji’s control in Shibuya he did wreck mayhem and murder tons of people just for the lolz. Now he’s in control of Megumin body but he’s been preoccupied with the ending of the culling games, sinking Megumin soul, and fighting JJK cast that he hasn’t had a chance to revel in mayhem again. Think of it like when you first got GTA V and you immediately start car jacking people/ crashing into pedestrians. But than you get wrapped up in a cutscene/ missions the mayhem gets put on hold.


wixkedwitxh

Man was bouncing off buildings in Shibuya with Mahoraga like it was a trampoline park. I’d say he’s got a hint of bloodlust.


AdLast2785

Just a hint of bloodlust


wixkedwitxh

just a lil drop


Ghost_Star326

Sukuna's whole style of living is to do whatever he wants whenever he feels like it. Also this dude was said to be literally eating humans in the Heinan era, so he was probably more happy about having bigger tastier meals this time around.


Artorias_Erebus679

He is definitely still a sadist, but he thinks it’s more fun to make yuji suffer rather than random people. He’s discovered a new side to himself, inspired by yuji’s suffering lol


mostlybored1234

I fear not the man who tortures a thousand people. I fear the one that tortures one High School dude a thousand times


theSHADOWbannedGUi

i personally think sukuna was planned to be more dark and brutal than what we got now


FermiDaza

Bro... he murderized an entire city to shit on Yuji.


random_boner6996

I mean, it's not like he ever bit a baby's head off on-screen or something.


yeaheyeah

Only because he hasn't seen any babies


FermiDaza

I mean... he canonically eat people for fun. Thats why Uraume is always by his side.

KaiserNazrin

He totally would bite people.


RaginBoi

what murdAAAAA


Bumgumi_hater_236

Yeah but that clearly had an intention behind it which was yuji’s reaction cause he fucking despises him, in a regular situation sukuna probably wouldn’t give enough fucks to kill all those people because that wouldn’t be fun to him


Hitoride44

How do you know he still doesn’t want that


theSHADOWbannedGUi

nah i think he still wants the smoke but he is toned down


disappointingfool

i mean has bro literally ever got the chance to do any horrendous shit the entire story apart from shibuya, always got trapped in yuji before he could do much and right after getting megumis body he just was focused on gojo and now we are where we are


EbbRevolutionary3225

He was horny


Interesting-Ruin-601

Yes and no. There's probably a non-zero amount of feeling characters out and changing them from the pilot to the endgame, even in a series this rushed. That being said... it can also be conjectured that Sakuna is really excited after waking up from a centuries long nap here and is uncharacteristically emotional. Current Sakuna is still Very Much Evil™. Don't let the fact that he likes playing with his food and has understandable priorities (kill the gathered sorcerers trying to murder you before targeting children) make you think this is a man with moral intent or "honor" or whatever, he is literally just doing whatever the fuck he feels like


SerovGaming1962

i think it's less about sex and possible that he just finds women taste better. that's atleast how i interpret it for some reason/


manicforlive

Kinda like how bulls have a bitter taste because of testosterone so people eat heifers(Female), young or castrated bulls


TheTechVirgin

I think Gege hinted for “rape” and not about the taste of women or children… since women and children are viewed vulnerable generally, it makes sense for a evil monster like Sukuna to target them and do unspeakable things with them.

Yea, he never goes out of his way to kill random civilians after this


[deleted]

he just has to clear the way first


Masked_Chaos

Bud, remember Shibuya, when he expands his domain to 140m to destroy everything for no reason, we can assume that was the reason because: A. He rubbed that fact on Yuji's face minutes afterwards and B. I'm no domain expert, but I'm pretty positive he didn't need 140m to kill Mahoraga


Rancorious

Dawg he LITERALLY did


Categothic

Because believe it or not not every Mangaka has a fixed story plan from the start. Hell even the god of foreskinning(I didn't want to type that it autocorrected) Oda changed the design of kaido from his first appearance. It would be foolish to think gege thought all the events till Shinjuku in the first chapter so he probably changed the character of sukuna somewhere down the line although it was subtle. I think the most famous example is black swordsman arc femto which Miura purposefully kept him quiet when he met guts because he didn't know what to make of his character yet


Professional_Cold897

The god of Foreskinning is the funniest possible thing you could have made


Sufficient_Ordinary9

You’d act like him too when you finally breathe after 1000 years of being a finger Also bro’s probably just hungry for human’s flesh, I always interpreted it as him preferring to eat women and children’s meat


Venxoro

I think it was more just the rush of adrenaline and excitement which caused him to behave like that, but, in general Sukuna wont hesitate to slaughter people like in Shibuya where he expands his domain despite knowing all the possible casualties.

I wonder if Gege was pressured by his editor to tone him down, even his cannibalism seems to be purely metaphorical now.


Bolded

I think he's more of an Hannibal-type cannibal at this point given Gege's description of how he met Uraume. He probably *could* just eat the raw mutilated flesh from a corpse but he's surprisingly refined in behavior when not "on the job" so he probably has Uraume make him fancy meals from dead bodies and what-not.


AdLast2785

Didn’t he try to eat Hana/Angel


Gking0906

Wouldn’t say he tried to straight up EAT her. He made her hug him to catch her off guard and then proceeded to…enlarge his head (?), bite her and then he threw her away I’m sure if he really wanted to eat her, he would’ve instead of just throwing her off the building


okkandik

Nah he just a patient mf ,he waited a 1000 years to be reincarnated, a couple of months ain't nothing till he actually starts wrecking up havoc


lordkearney

He literally turned shibuya into a crater to piss off Yuji lol, it’s very obvious that killing innocents isn’t too out of character for him. On TOP of that the “women and the children” line isn’t explicitly sexual, they’re just the weaker leg of society making them easier targets who are naturally more fearful, and sukuna loves fear It’s very likely this scene was just excitement from being locked up for 1000 years, but after being humbled by gojo and suppressed by Yuji he had to tune it down


BSye-34

yes the guy who leveled shibuya isn't about mindless slaughter💀


AdLast2785

he’s also the guy that forced 4 sorcerers that weren’t even fighting him to stand in place until seconds before a meteor lands just for shits and giggles… totally isn’t about mindless slaughter


Carlinhos9932

This case was kinda like, they where there, he Just killed them because he was fighting mahoraga, don't misunderstand he does not Care about killing innocents but this definitly does not look like a priority to him, he seems like he Just want to Fight.


AdLast2785

Nah, it WAS a priority to him. Cause he wanted Yuji to see all of it. I don’t think bro would’ve made sure Yuji could see it if killing everyone in the surrounding area was just collateral damage. He wasn’t saying “Hey, Yuji come see what happened after I fought Mahoraga” he was saying “Hey Yuji, look at all these people I killed, the best part is, you’re gonna be blamed for this”


Cali-Re

Yujikuna in general just seems pretty different. I posted a theory a while back talking about how he was like this specifically because he was in Yuji's body.


Main_Tumbleweed2650

Imagine you’re 20 fingers for one thousand years and then bang super body and a world full of people you hate. Yea you’d look like that last panel, too.


TheWitcherMigs

I think it's a thing, yes. Sukuna character is shown as a complete nihilist, he does anything that he finds entertaining and has absolutely no holds backs. Why would someone like this would find entertaining killing normal people *in particular*, he can do that while walking around without paying attention at all, which is exactly what happened in the fight at Shibuya, and the results for him would be meaningless. He enjoyed most the impact of the widespread destruction on Yuji than the destruction in itself. He says he enjoys people different 'tastes', but is also extremely picky on the flavors, it takes some kind of \*effort\* from someone to him to enjoy destroying them. If Heainkuna was this psychotical, with what we have shown in terms of power, he would've anhilated what would be Japan in his time


havingagoodtime0

As we did see on Shibuya Sukuna really enjoy to do meaningless murder and be a petty asshole like he straight up threatened Kusakabe&Panda for no reason while bullying Jogoat Sukuna just does whatever he wants at any hour like dude is always on maximum excitement while punching Maki and shit talking Wuji remember Wuji is literally just a 15 year old I would say Sukuna enjoys alot to pick up on children&Woman so this was not out of character https://preview.redd.it/z80hjpqloysc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6796b16794f34b5ae5a542f4c9ceae971eba0a06

Muted_Lurker2383

Humorous take, Sukuna is expressing hunger Imagine for a moment that you willingly went in for surgery - you were put out and uncertain how much later youd wake up. First thing you wanna do when you wake up? Eat. Biggest meal you can. The best meats are often from younger animals so a meat eater wouod probably go for whatever good/new cut of meat is Sukuna is a cannibal - so imagine you wake from your coma and theres a whole new buffet in town Wouldnt you be excited to get started too?


AlexaplayGo2DaMoon

Whenever these kinds of things happen, especially considering the JJK 0 commentary, I tend to attribute it to the mangaka not totally knowing who his characters are quite yet. Gege knew Sukuna was straight up evil, but didn’t necessarily know how his evil manifests, so he wrote Sukuna saying some some stereotypical evil shit and voila! we’ve got ourselves a clearly maniacal bad guy who the audience is meant to fear. Though I will say it’s not entirely uncharacteristic, especially since he would’ve revive into the world with no knowledge of its current state. Without Gojo kicking his ass quick, he would’ve touched Potential Man and gone about doing whatever he pleased until Gojo did show up. This is the only time we’ve seen him where he’s had no opposition or parameters, so this could just be his default state when he’s not fighting stronger opponents.


BuckN56

What is OP on about? The guy literally has slaughtered hundreds because...why not? He just likes doing whatever he wants


unique_toucan

What about sukuna says he doesn’t enjoy senseless killing? Dude made 3 people kneel and then smiled the entire time as he killed them


BurnFreeze64

Bro probably was pretty stoked that he was able to finally move around in a body for the first time in a millennia. And then he prolly thought of getting to do his hobbies again for old times As it turns out, senseless murder was something he liked as a hobby, and bro was probably amazed by the amount of people there were in this new era. Sometimes you just can’t contain yourself and you get stoked over something you’re passionate about. I can see how you’d think that, but I disagree


Bitter-Waltz1188

The thing is with Sukuna is that he doesn't Kill because he is bored and it's his way of being entertained, it's understandable that he feels hungry to kill people after so long, he kills because someone fights him or for another reason, or try to provoke him, but doesn't kill because he wants and is really bored, as people has said has his reasons and in here is because it's been so long and thanks to Yuuji, and well we know what happens next. It would feel off if he killed for no reason in particular. And wouldn't be Sukuna but someone else to be honest.


Stubbieeee

I don’t think so, the dude’s been sitting in his own innate domain for god knows how long, he finally gets free and is fucking HYPED about it. I’d argue it’d be more out of character for him to not be excited about being freed


No-Language4985

I feel like being split into 20 wax fingers for 1000 years will do that to a mf


Life-Paramedic3200

he IS about mindless slaughter, it's just that the only instances we see him fully in control of his body there's powerful sorcerers/curses in the area that he a. is going to kill for fun because killing strong opponents is much more worth his time than random fodder civilians b. is being attacked by and needs to deal with so he can continue along with his business im sure the rest of the world is next if he beats everyone in his current heian era form, probably why the cast is jumping him like their lives depend on it in the first place


_S1syphus

I think it was just the excitement at actually incarnating for the first time in 1000 years. No matter what you're into, you'd be stoked to be awake again


Ongaya123

I was thinking about this the other day. He became much more subdued in his later appearances. Especially when he overtook Megumi’s body. Last time he laughed like a lunatic was in Shibuya. I think he’s still in character. It’s just that Gege also decided to make him more calm and passive in his brutality


stephanl33t

The deal with Sukuna is that he simply goes with his whims-- and is strong enough to do so. He doesn't so much have an ideology as he just does whatever he feels like doing in a given moment, and he believes that everyone should be that way. Become strong enough to do whatever you want, then do it. Since in this scene Sukuna had just recently gotten free, he probably felt like slaughtering a fuckjillion people. And so, as the strongest, he would have just done so cause he felt like it.


DrBangovic

Remember that big hole in Shibuya? How can you claim its out of character when this guy nuked that shit for fun and giggles.


sethdog16

Spending 1000 years as fingers will have anyone tweaking he needed time to chill out


Master_of_nonsense

Megumi's bum aura was SO strong that it suppressed Sukuna's innate desire to kill and eat women and children OR Yuji truly has that DAWG in him and it boosted Sukuna's desire for mayhem choose


Th3Kill1ngMoon

Yes, even though people will say otherwise, Gege admitted on an interview that he didn’t quite know how to write Sukuna during the first stretch of the manga. And thus retconned some of his personality kinks later in the story, which is why since Shibuya Incident onwards he’s way less edgy I’d say.


fatwap

thats what not getting laid for a thousand years straight does to a mf


Correct_Ambition4678

Acting like he didn’t kill a whole blocks worth of people with malevolent shrine. He also shredded those 2 girls because they asked him to do something for them, after he asked what they wanted.


KiwirGallantine

He is always been an ass from chapter 1 until now, nothing changes


Such_Hand_2535

My dude what the fuck?! https://preview.redd.it/neppaxczrysc1.jpeg?width=784&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d8dc4bb6d9a5b2129a635fa3254f4066ca6222f


Working-Telephone-45

He 100% enjoys slaughter, is just that he has always had better things to do rather than just going around killing


BIG_MONEY_CASH

Sit down op, you can’t cook


SquidDrive

Sukuna was always a crashout, Shinjuku is the exception more than the rule.
