The Minus Who Crawls From Chaos
「Do you think it's cool not to smile? If you go through life like that though, you wouldn't notice. You can't be close to being a Minus like that. Even if things don't go the way you want them to. Even if you lose. Even if you don't win. Even if you look like an idiot. Even if you're walked on. Even if you're kicked. Even if you're sad. Even if you're bitter. Even if you're tired of it all. Even if it hurts. Even if it's hard. Even if you're weak. Even if you aren't right. Even if you're humble. Through all of that, we Minus always laugh.」
Misogi Kumagawa (球磨川 禊, Kumagawa Misogi) is a central character from the Medaka Box manga series, written by Nisio Isin and illustrated by Akira Akatsuki. He is introduced as a complex and highly unpredictable antagonist. Kumagawa is initially portrayed as a delinquent who is deeply resentful of the world, with a history of being a former student at the prestigious Hakoniwa Academy. Despite his outward appearance of being a troublemaker, he is highly intelligent, manipulative, and possessive of a unique ability known as "All Fiction." This power allows him to erase the existence of anything, essentially rewriting reality itself by making things that exist "no longer exist," including people, objects, or even concepts. This ability makes him an extremely dangerous and powerful character.
Despite his huge reputation amongst the manga/anime community, many people, especially in the battle-boarding community, still underestimate his character and strength. In order to bring justice to the most intriguing character of the series, this blog will outline and elaborate on his overlooked feats/abilities.
