14vs68
Different power types make direct strength comparison misleading. What matters here is the character identity gap: what each existence does to the world, not who hits harder. Sung Jinwoo's DNA tells a broader story: their narrative is built around self-determination and identity / raw destructive ceiling. Meruem's identity is more narrowly defined by comparison.
