Sukuna/Yuji & the Devil May Cry Twins?
Could Yuji and Sukuna possibly be twins, a clone, or a split soul? But only if that turns out to be the case in the end. Then it reminds me a bit of the story of the "Devil May Cry" game. It's just a comparison, nothing more!
Devil May Cry is a video game story. It revolves around two brothers, both hybrids and not humans. Half human/angel/demon. The main character is Dante, but also his twin brother Vergil, who is also a main antagonist. They embody the two sides of the fight against demons/monsters, with Dante representing the good side and saving other humans from demons, just like Yuji who wants to protect humans from cursed spirits. While Vergil is more self-serving and seeks power, just like Sukuna as an example.
Here are some points about Vergil:
• Vergil can't stand his twin brother Dante.
• He looks down on humans and considers them weak.
• He can't stand his human side.
• Vergil isn't as strong as his brother Dante, as he was always somewhat weaker.
• Vergil seeks power and wants to take over the world because he thinks he could protect humans from themselves as their ruler.
• Vergil transformed into a demon king through a ritual and bid farewell to his human appearance.
• Vergil has a clone named V, his other half or split soul, the human side.
Could Sukuna dislike Yuji because he could remind him of his brother or his former self, but also because of his hatred for being human? Because he refers to humans as weak beings, but supposedly, he was once human himself? Because they are so weak and fragile and constantly rely on the help of the stronger ones, as people look up to them like heroes or gods, etc. And thus, attention and love are gained through power and strength = love! And he himself was unwanted or maybe even weak?
And he sought to become something more powerful and mighty, perhaps an obsession? To become something evil, demonic, divine, or monstrous, or whatever he became... created through a ritual with a sacrifice?
Because I'm not sure. And I can't really imagine that this is his true human form. With 4 arms, 4 eyes, etc. Because even Tengen did something to their appearance and now looks like Sukuna and also has 4 eyes! At least she tried to complete herself. And Tengen had also made sacrifices.
And Gege once showed us an official drawing of Tengen, in a real human form. A normal beautiful person! So the opposite of their monstrous appearance.
Vergil wanted more power. Vergil doesn't like being weak and also because his twin brother Dante is somewhat stronger or better than him. He hates his human side! Vergil wants to be more malicious and favor his demonic side. Vergil split/cut his soul in two halves, and V is his newly born half with its own body and life! One could now say that they are twins/look alike. But yes and no, it's just the same person, only the soul was split.
And I don't exactly remember, but I think Vergil's human half named V didn't initially know who he was, so they were confusing memories, I assume? Just like Yuji, who is confused or can't remember anything from his life/past. (The one with Choso and his other brothers, just as an example).
After his ritual/sacrifice, Vergil became a peculiar-looking being with many eyes on his face. A demon or rather a demon king, a true devil. And Sukuna is also a king and a strange-looking being like Tengen.
I'm just a little puzzled/amazed by the similarities. 🤔
