Now that you mention it, it should have been obvious War was gonna be the Makima equivalent of part 2, not Death. Fujimoto pulled the same stunt again, several ambiguous characters then one of them just announces themselves as the Big Bad. Guess this means part 2 is ending soon. With Kishibe still MIA.
I still think it's too early to consider Yoru the final antagonist. She just had a power up, we shouldn't take Lil'D at her word.
She painted herself as some unvoluntary calamity...while saying she did a lot of things to avert that. Even Denji sees the holes in her story.
In comparaison, Yoru is just being her gremlin self like usual. Well, she even regressed character-wise, when her crush for Denji led her to show some growth and humanity.
We still need to hear what Death wants from Denji, what's her plan to stop Yoru. Because all I'm seeing, is her collecting the other Horsemen as her playthings. She has Famine for sure, most likely Nayuta, only one left.
So, if she has the powers of the Four Horsemen under her control and uses them full blast, isn't that just the Apocalypse, the highest death there is, the end of the world.
Hell, she's even gunning for the first place in Denji'd harem of her sisters, none of them stun-locked him with this blessed sight 🙌
