Sukuna Powers Explained (2026) — All Techniques & True Form

Cleave and Dismantle

Sukuna's two signature slashing techniques: Cleave adapts its power to cut through whatever is in front of it — stronger targets get stronger cuts. Dismantle is a fixed-power slash that can be fired at range without being directed at a specific target. Both can be fired simultaneously in multiple directions.

Malevolent Shrine — His Domain

Sukuna's Domain Expansion is unique: it has no walls. Rather than creating an enclosed space, the Shrine expands outward from Sukuna like a Buddhist altar — carving everything within range with Cleave and Dismantle simultaneously. The open-air design means it covers a larger area than enclosed Domains (roughly 200-meter radius) but can be escaped by leaving the area. Its guaranteed hit is the slashing that saturates the entire space.

Reverse Cursed Technique

Sukuna can heal himself (or others) using Reverse Cursed Technique — taking negative (cursed) energy and reversing it into positive energy that heals. He can reconstruct entire destroyed organs. This makes him essentially unkillable in short combat unless the damage is inflicted faster than he can regenerate.

Fire Techniques (Post-Jogo)

After absorbing Jogo during the Shibuya Incident, Sukuna gains access to Jogo's fire-based techniques. He can create flames hot enough to reshape the battlefield and combine them with his slashing techniques for compound attacks.

True Form

Sukuna's original body — the "King of Curses" from 1,000 years ago — had four arms and two faces. In his fully manifested true form within a suitable vessel, he can access his complete power without limitation. The gap between Sukuna in Yuji's body and Sukuna fully incarnated is staggering.
