haruta had so much megumi

Haruta Shigemo represents one of the most fascinating cases of squandered narrative potential in Jujutsu Kaisen. His Innate Technique Miracle was a brilliant and unique concept because it subconsciously stored minor everyday miracles at the expense of his own memory only to expend them to cheat death itself. This mechanic essentially granted him multiple extra lives making him a terrifyingly unpredictable wild card in a universe defined by strict mathematical power systems. Instead of evolving into a cunning high-stakes assassin who could weaponise probability to take down high-tier sorcerers Haruta was relegated to a cowardly sadistic opportunist who only picked on weakened opponents. By keeping him static as a minor nuisance rather than allowing him to master his own technique his ultimate demise felt less like the tragic end of a rising threat and more like a comedic clearing of the board. If he went to jujutsu high he could have maybe became around semi grade one or higher!
