Megumi Fushiguro Fate Timeline: Every Near-Death Moment Leading up to Now
The turning point that had readers convinced Megumi could not survive arrived in Chapter 212. Sukuna activated his binding vow with Yuji, tore off his own cursed finger, and force-fed it to Megumi. In a sickening instant, Ryomen Sukuna possession became reality. Megumi's innate resistance was far lower than Yuji's genetic predisposition as a cage, enabling the King of Curses to seize absolute dominion over the young sorcerer's physical form.
Megumi fought back fiercely from the shadows of his own consciousness, suppressing Sukuna’s cursed energy output down to less than 10 percent whenever the villain attacked Yuji or Maki Zen'in. To extinguish this internal rebellion, Sukuna orchestrated The Bath ritual. Submerging Megumi’s physical body into a cauldron of concentrated cursed spirits, Sukuna drove Megumi’s psyche deep into spiritual muck, suffocating his conscious resistance and consolidating control over the stolen flesh.
