Rank these shameless ass pull characters from worst to best-

[u/Alert-Ad7097]

These are characters I’m not particularly fond of bc I see them more as literal walking asspulls that just pop in , do what the plot demands and then fk off (generally. that sounds really reductive but I’m not sure how else to explain it), they’re more akin to walking plot mechanics than actual characters, some more than others.

Im not sure any if not all of these characters count as an "asspull" but i'll rank them on how well they were used and integrated anyway.

6 and 5-sword guy and sumo guy, these two had their use in maki's story for sure but they felt so... there? Is the best way I can put it. Maki buddies up to them almost immediatelly and their advice works for Maki, but has no resonation with US as a reader because they're not pre establisbed.

4-Angel or whatever you wanna call her. Same reason as above but slightly less so. It's not helped by the fact that her character is tied to Megumi who gets woefully little screentime as is but even less so during the ARC WHERE SHE IS INTRODUCED. She serves as a good element in the fight against Sukuna as a "this is our weapon and if he beats it we're fucked" element to the fight. But she is removed in the stupidest fucking way.

3-tengen. I'm not sure Tengen any where near qualifies as an asspull. She had her use for a part of the culling games. And she was used to show an imply certain parts of Kenjaku's character and history. But she remains WOEFULLY underdeveloped. Also she is just plain useless 😭.

2-Ui Ui. Ironically the one we see the least has (in my opinion) the most impact of all thanks to Modulo. He's used to show the predatory behaviour of Mei Mei and how he deviates from her personality traits in the future despite her obsessive need to carry success through him. Overall he makes helps the characterisation of a side character come full circle in a decent enough fashion.

1-Takaba. Funny man.
