Analysis
YPS-2
Slight power edge
YPS-3
Tanjiro Kamado has a slight tier edge, but one tier rarely decides outcomes. DNA becomes the real tiebreaker. Tanjiro Kamado's DNA tells a broader story: their narrative is built around how much the universe protects them / moral cost they'll pay. Cocytus's identity is more narrowly defined by comparison.
