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. Subaru Natsuki's DNA tells a broader story: their narrative is built around moral cost they'll pay / who they fight for. Muzan Kibutsuji's identity is more narrowly defined by comparison.
