how strong is mahoraga

Mahoraga is portrayed as one of the absolute top-tier threats in Jujutsu Kaisen, strong enough that even special-grade monsters and top sorcerers treat it as a last-resort, borderline suicide option.

What Mahoraga Is

• Mahoraga is the strongest shikigami of the Ten Shadows Technique, and historically no user has ever fully tamed it.

• It is a massive humanoid with an eight-handled wheel above its head that turns whenever it “adapts” to a new phenomenon or attack.

Core Strength And Durability

• Physically, Mahoraga can send a 15-finger Sukuna flying through multiple buildings with a single blow and easily pulverize concrete-level structures.

• Its durability lets it survive and then adapt to techniques that would instantly kill or erase most other beings in the series.

Broken Adaptation Ability

• Mahoraga’s defining ability is adaptation: if it is hurt by a specific attack, the wheel turns and it gains resistance or a counter to that phenomenon.

• This evolution does not really stop; sources describe it as continuously refining ways to bypass an enemy’s offense and defense, even finding multiple solutions to things like Gojo’s Limitless.

Sword Of Extermination

• On top of its raw power, Mahoraga wields the Sword of Extermination, a blade wrapped in positive energy that is especially lethal to cursed spirits.

• Sukuna himself notes that this sword, with its positive energy, is dangerous enough that it could potentially one-shot him when he is in a cursed form.

How Strong Overall?

• In vs-discussions and power-scaling videos, Mahoraga is often ranked just below the absolute gods of the series (full-power Sukuna, Gojo) but above most other high-tiers, especially once fully adapted.

• Fans frequently frame it as a “raid boss” type entity: many characters might damage it once, but the longer a fight goes, the more impossible it becomes to beat because it keeps learning and countering everything thrown at it.

In simple terms, if you can’t kill Mahoraga fast, you probably can’t kill it at all.
