So, there I was. Sitting on my floor, binge-reading Jujutsu Kaisen chapters like a gremlin when it hit me—Sukuna Megumi isn’t just a creepy subplot. It’s the plot twist. The cursed cherry on top of an already hellish sundae.

Who the Hell Is Sukuna, Anyway?

Look. If you’ve made it this far and don’t know who Sukuna is, I can’t help you. No, wait—I can. He’s basically the guy your mom warned you about if she was a thousand-year-old sorcerer scholar. Evil incarnate. Four arms. A six-pack carved by demons. Kinda hot, if you’re into, you know, genocide.

But seriously—Sukuna is the “King of Curses.” He’s so powerful they couldn’t kill him, so they chopped his body into 20 fingers and stored them like cursed Pokémon cards. Nice.

And then there’s Sukuna Megumi—hold up, we’re not there yet.

Enter: Megumi Fushiguro, Resident Sad Boi

Megumi. Sweet, brooding, mysterious Megumi. I’d trust him with my house keys but also worry he’d summon a cursed wolf in my living room.

He’s got this technique—Ten Shadows. Basically, he can summon spooky spirit animals to fight for him, including a very emo bird. Think Pokémon trainer meets occult wizard. And somewhere in the middle of all this? Sukuna Megumi becomes a thing. A very messed-up thing.

Anyway, I learned the hard way that Sukuna doesn’t play favorites—except with Megumi. Why?

Well, strap in. This rabbit hole gets weirder than my cousin’s UFO blog.

First Clue: Sukuna Saves Megumi (Yeah, Seriously)

Let’s rewind to when Sukuna, chilling inside Yuji Itadori’s body like a squatter who won’t leave, chooses not to kill Megumi. This was weird. I mean, Sukuna squashes people like gnats for fun. But Megumi? Nah. He gets a pass.

That’s when fans started whispering: Sukuna Megumi. The vibe was off. The King of Curses playing favorites? Red flags everywhere.

He even smiled. That kind of villainous anime smirk that makes you want to call a priest.

Megumi’s Technique Isn’t Just Cool—It’s Dangerous

Megumi’s Ten Shadows Technique? More than just a party trick. It’s got layers—like a cursed onion.

Some ancient lore suggests the technique can do things. Dark things. Like maybe bring someone back. Or create a new vessel. Or turn your body into a walking demonic Airbnb.

And who’s watching from the corner, licking his metaphorical lips? Yup. Sukuna Megumi again.

“Sukuna’s got plans,” I muttered to my dog while re-reading Chapter 212. He looked concerned.

Anyway, Here’s the Kicker: Sukuna Takes Over Megumi’s Body

Yeah. That happened.

It wasn’t a gradual possession. It was bam—a soul swap, some binding vow jujutsu nonsense, and then poof, Sukuna’s flexing inside Megumi’s body like it’s his new leather jacket.

I choked on my coffee. The smell of betrayal and roasted beans will forever remind me of Chapter 213.

And then, Sukuna Megumi wasn’t a theory anymore. It was canon. Terrifyingly, awfully, un-skip-the-intro canon.

What’s the Endgame, Sukuna?

Dude’s not just doing this for fun (although, probably a little bit). There’s a method to his madness, even if it’s buried under layers of bloodlust.

Here’s What the Fanbase Thinks:

• Megumi’s body is stronger than Yuji’s for what Sukuna wants to do. Soul stuff? Rituals? Ancient sorcerer yoga?
• The Ten Shadows Technique might let Sukuna summon something beyond cursed spirits.
• Sukuna believes Megumi’s got the potential to be darker, meaner, and way more fun at parties—if he’d just snap already.

I dunno. All I know is this: Sukuna Megumi is nightmare fuel, and I both love and hate it.

Fun (Cursed) Theories I’ve Fallen Down With

Not to brag, but I’ve read some insane fan threads at 3 a.m. Here are my faves:

• Sukuna is the original user of Ten Shadows. You know, before it was cool.
• Megumi’s dad sold him off (Zenin clan drama alert) because he was destined for this. Oof.
• The “domain expansion” Sukuna used inside Megumi isn’t just a flex. It’s him resetting the board.

All this and more under the umbrella of Sukuna Megumi. Like I said, it’s not just a cursed ship—it’s a whole storm.

My Neighbor Tina Has Thoughts

Tina, who thinks her cat is a cursed spirit (I don’t disagree), says Megumi’s problem is that he’s “too nice.” Which, yeah. Same, Tina.

But imagine this: if Megumi let loose? Fully embraced the chaos? He could out-Sukuna Sukuna. And that… scares me more than the time I left kombucha in my closet for two months. (RIP, Gary Jr.)

Real-Life Parallel? Victorian Ferns

Fun fact I absolutely did not make up: Victorians believed talking to ferns could ward off insanity. If only Megumi had a fern, right? Or maybe he does. We never see his dorm. Insert conspiracy music.

Anyway, Sukuna Megumi has become this bizarre symbol of duality: curse vs control, demon vs duty, chaos vs calm.

And me? I love every cursed second of it. Even when it makes me scream into my pillow.

Flashback: June 7th, 2019 – My Personal Sukuna Megumi Moment

I bought a rosemary plant from Walmart. Thought I could grow it on my balcony like a cottagecore Pinterest god. That thing died in a week. Still haunts me. Just like the look in Megumi’s eyes post-possession.

Moral of the story? Never underestimate subtle shifts. Or cursed herbs.

Y’all… the Endgame Is Gonna Hurt

There’s no going back. Megumi’s soul is either trapped, fighting from the inside, or flickering like a bad WiFi signal.

Possible Outcomes:

• He wins. (Cue emotional piano music.)
• Sukuna wins. (Cue flames and shattered fandoms.)
• They both die. (I throw my manga into a lake.)
• Yuji sacrifices himself to save Megumi. (I cry in the parking lot of Pete’s Hardware. Again.)

And that’s the heartbreak of Sukuna Megumi—two souls caught in a war neither of them asked for.

A Book I “Definitely” Read: Garden Mishaps & Miracles (1998)

Page 42 had this quote:
“Sometimes the soil you plant in is cursed. But still, the seed tries to grow.”

Tell me that’s not Megumi. Tell me that doesn’t hit right in the jujutsu.

Closing Out (but Not Really a Conclusion)

So yeah, Sukuna Megumi is the ultimate betrayal, the best twist, and honestly the best reason to keep reading Jujutsu Kaisen at this point.

It’s terrifying. It’s tragic. It’s the literary version of watching a car crash in slow motion while holding a cup of cold ramen.

But I’m here for it. Every creepy smirk. Every soul-crushing fight. Every “is he still in there?” moment.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to rewatch that scene where Sukuna makes that deal with Megumi. Again. For science. Definitely not because I’m emotionally wrecked.
