Jujutsu Kaisen is on a generational run and is on the edge of its inevitable end. Gege Akutami is pulling all the brakes and seemingly going all in. Many action-packed fights are currently occurring as the entire jujutsu world is ganging up on Sukuna and wants to eradicate him in the manga.

Sukuna is the main antagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen and has been dog-walking the entire cast with little to no difficulty. He is a well-versed figure among the audience, and lately, has been gaining a lot of new fans. However, many fanatics believe that King of Curses is just an attention-grabber and does not care about the trauma he received as a child.

Gege Akutami has penned down many amazing written characters, and one of the most notable is Ryomen Sukuna, the evil antagonist who wants to eradicate Jujutsu sorcerers and bring back the Heian era, where he ruled over all. Ever since his introduction to the story, he had a sinister vibe, and it didn’t take much time for him to become a fan- favorite. His popularity has been steadily increasing ever since.

A vital reason for his becoming a prominent face among the audience is his backstory. Sukuna was deemed the unwanted child and had to climb up to the top of the Jujutsu world. He wasn’t born the strongest; he became powerful through sheer hard work and perseverance.

Many fans relate to his journey and support him. However, many also believe Sukuna to be an attention seeker. According to some fans, he is not bothered by his past and doesn’t care much about what happened.

According to a user named JotheoriesJJK on X, formerly known as Twiter, Sukuna kills because he seems to be enchanted by the attention he accumulates while doing it. Sukuna was probably not given affection or love and must have felt neglected as a child.

The story is similar to Naruto’s, who got overlooked by everyone and therefore resorted to mischief to gather attention. This might be the case with Sukuna, who decided to become a murderer to get attention.

However, he started experiencing thrills from killing and made it his personality, something he didn’t bother to change afterward.

Who can kill Sukuna in Jujutsu Kaisen?

Ryomen Sukuna is the strongest character in the Jujutsu Kaisen verse, and fans have often wondered who can cut the lights out for the king of curses. Many believed that Gojo could be the one, but things have since changed.

Ever since his fight with Gojo Satoru, he has evolved even further and is now at the pinnacle of his powers. The entire cast so far has proved unable to do any significant damage to him.

Since the fall of Gojo Satoru, the entire hope leans on the shoulder of Yuta, the strongest sorcerer after his sensei. But will he be able to do something even his teacher failed to do? The only choice is to wait and find out. 

However, it would be worth it, to see how the events unfold and who emerges victorious towards the end of the manga.
