A shocking hypothesis that has just appeared in Jujutsu Kaisen: Modulo, that Tengen could be an alien of the Simurian race, who was trapped on the earth and formed the foundation of the magic.
This hypothesis is very similar to the way Naruto explains the origin of the ring from the Otsutsuki race in the space, and it makes fans extremely curious about the mysteries that are about to be revealed.
1. One of the members of the Simurian race said that the artists possess the same power as they
The first basis for this hypothesis appears in the first chapter of the modulo. There, a member of the Simurian race said that the artists in Japan had the same power to them. This raises suspicion that Tengen, who laid the foundation for the World of Magic, could be the first Simurian to come to Earth.
2. The nickname of Tengen is Star/Hoshi, this shows that he can come from the space
Tengen also has another nickname “Hoshi”, meaning “star” in Japanese. Not only the artists, but also the worshipers he called him the same. The nickname seemed to imply that Tengen was not the Earth, but came from the universe to establish a mantra world on this planet.
3. Tengen’s mysterious physical condition
In Jujutsu Kaisen, Tengen possesses a cursed immortal technique, he needs to unite with a star plasma vessel after every 500 years for two main reasons.
First, although Tengen’s immortal technique allows him to live forever, it does not stop the aging process of the body. After every 500 years, his body will evolve and if not consolidated with the mutuality, he will lose his humanity and become a dangerous entity, which can threaten the entire world of magic.
Secondly, Tengen plays an important role in maintaining the barrier of Magic and protecting Japanese schools from dangerous curses. The consolidation process helps to restore his technique, ensuring that he still has the strength to perform his duties in a stable and safe way.
This merging is not only a personal need of Tengen, but also a vital factor to maintain the balance of the magic world. Is this situation because Tengen is not the Earth from the beginning?
4. Magic culture is only available in Japan
Initially, the concept of the curse existed with human history because it relates to the negative emotions of each individual. However, the interesting thing is that only Japan has Jujutsu culture. Most other countries do not seem to have such a complex culture.
This can be explained by Tengen, a Simurian, who went to Earth early and created a magic civilization similar to his homeland. This hypothesis explains why some people say that the Simurian race and the magicians have similarities, like the way Ninja and Otsutsuki races in Naruto are familiar with the concept of Chakra.
Of course, this is just a hypothesis. But maybe we will see the truth in the upcoming developments of Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo.
