Analysis

Clear power gap
YPS-2
Muzan Kibutsuji holds a meaningful power lead. A 2-tier gap is bridgeable only by exploiting scenario and DNA advantages aggressively. DNA tells a different story: Muzan Kibutsuji: raw destructive ceiling, Shiroe: self-determination and identity. These are different character shapes, not different power levels. Shiroe is the more complex character study despite the power gap: a pattern common in isekai where the weaker character carries more narrative weight.
