Bloody Battle Royale: Makima vs Eida - Unleashing Ultimate Power for Dominance!

Despite their apparent differences, Chainsaw Man's Makima and Boruto's Eida share more similarities than fans typically realize. They both possess a unique power, which allows them to influence others to the extent that obedience is unavoidable. In a world where absolutes are favored, the question always arises as to who is superior when it comes to these two prominent characters. The answer lies in their intentions, experiences, and desires.

Makima and Eida both deviate from the stereotypical shonen manga characters. Makima is a devil, a supernatural entity with extraordinary abilities that prey on human fears. These devilish abilities are so overpowering that not only humans, but even less capable devils fear her. Makima's power revolves around her capacity to control individuals she perceives as inferior. On the other hand, Eida is a cyborg specifically engineered for a particular purpose. Her purpose is to make everyone she encounters, except for a small group of individuals, fall in love with her. Similar to Makima, once someone falls under Eida's spell, her control over them is absolute.

Makima and Eida Share Powers – But Not Completely

Both Makima and Eida excel in utilizing their unique powers. In Chainsaw Man, Makima has effortlessly gained control over numerous humans and a substantial number of devils, with her influence particularly evident in her mastery over Denji. Likewise, in Boruto, Eida has proven to be unmatched in her abilities, as only individuals from her family or the alien Otsutsuki Clan have shown any capacity to overcome her powers. She has even managed to withstand multiple skilled ninjas simultaneously. Despite their comparable skillsets, Makima's control abilities ultimately reign supreme.

Makima operates as an aggressive force, utilizing her powers to manipulate and dominate those around her in order to further her plans. On the other hand, Eida exhibits a more reserved approach, only deploying her abilities when her objectives are at risk. Unlike Makima, Eida's desires do not require constant activation of her powers. In this aspect, Eida gains an advantage. Once Makima reveals herself, her predictable tactics allow for the possibility of devising counter-strategies. However, Eida remains somewhat of an enigma due to her limited engagement with others, despite their awareness of her abilities. Consequently, she can compel individuals to act in specific ways without actually exerting her powers.

Makima surpasses Eida in her ability to dominate and control her targets. It goes beyond mere manipulation; their minds become an extension of Makima's own. She possesses the power to shape their thoughts and manipulate their memories as she sees fit. While those under Makima's control may remain unaware of their situation, some of Eida's victims have shown an understanding of their own subjugation, despite their inability to resist her commands. Additionally, Eida lacks the capacity to read minds or alter thoughts and memories.

Love can be fought against, but fear cannot. The absence of Makima's overwhelming domination sets Eida apart when it comes to control. If a victim is aware of being manipulated, they have the potential to resist, similar to Shikamaru in Boruto chapter 70. Even if their resistance proves futile, Eida's control is not all-encompassing. It requires more time and effort on her part to break their defiance. This is not a concern for Makima in Chainsaw Man; she never needs to fear her victims rebelling against her.
