Damn they really put everything into the Gojou and Itadori 10 second fight that was crazy with some top notch animation. I'm getting a sense that the show is switching to high gear now so I'm expecting a lot next episode.

Nobara will probably be fully introduced next episode can't wait for that as well as a great ending.

Episode well done :)

I really like how aloof Itadori is, or laid back is probably a better way to describe him. That monologue of him saying "i am the only one who can stop this curse" and therefore he would regret not saving people hurt by it was really intruiging. I felt the Principals agitation, like no you aren't doing this extremely dangerous thing just cause an old man told you to do it, are you?

Anyways I think this anime has good pacing, great art style and nice music. I like fushigiro and gojo, I think they play off each other well. The girl at the end of the episode is so cute and I hope we get to see more of her.

The material is still bland and comedy is so bad, but the production efforts from MAPPA have been damn solid still and I like Gojou here a bit more than the manga.

MAPPA pacing this decently too so even if I'm bored by the material, it's somewhat watchable compared to the director and studio's efforts for God of High School.


I wouldnt say the comedy is bad it's just not ur and my type of humor. It very much relies on slapsticks which isn't for everyone.

Also the production value is high i have to say the directing isn't so good in comparison. Scenes don't flow that well and pacing is a little bit too fast.

So we finally meet Satoru who is one of the strongest Jujutsu sorcerers and he was able to hold his own against Sukuna for ten seconds. It looks like Itadori has become a vessel for Sukuna after eating the cursed object. Itadori is then given the task of finding the other parts of Sukuna and absorbing them before his execution. Itadori changes schools and attends Tokyo Metropolitan Jujutsu Technical High School where he has a one on one interview with the principal.

It might not be anything extraordinary, but the high production values and entertaining cast are making this quite an enjoyable watch. I feel like this show is going to blow up in a similar way to how Demon Slayer did.

But damn, this show has a fantastic opening and ending. If I looked up the definition of the word Groovy, all there would be is a YouTube link to this ed.

Artistically, this show looks surprising clean. Especially with those 3D looking shots, extremely pretty. Then of course there’s that jazzy ED which is such a slapper.

Once again, I love the dynamic between Sasuke, Naruto, and their new Kakashi Sensei.

That was a nice start to the anime with both Sukuna and Gojo flexing their Jujutsu skills and yet again, MAPPA killed with the fight scene animation.

I'm super excited for Nobara's arrival at the school in next weeks episode. She's gonna be a big best girl contender for the season! Also looking forward to the Gojo face reveal because I was pleasantly surprised by it in the manga!

They've been adapting the usual 2 chapters per episode so any pacing issues honestly are just the mangas fault. It definitely was a little rough around the edges at the beginning but it really straightens out once we get to the first real arc

So, in other words Yuuji is gonna serve as a human trash bin for the Sukuna that gonna be gathered and when his full he's gonna be eliminated or in garbage man term , bet put in an incinerator.

Very much agree. The manga stumbles a bit in the beginning and it was struggling in the rankings as well. Its only later when the main villains got introduced that the series finds it footing. For me its gojo's first real fight where the manga got from "good" to "hot damn awesome"

Interesting song for the ending, quite jazzy, didn't expect to sound like that.
Goujou-sensei seems like a really cool dude, hope you can soon learn more about him.
We can already know Yuuji's motives and objectives from this episode, I'm interested in how he's going to achieve them.
Let's see what it can show us next week.

One thing is for sure, if all else fails, at the very least we're going to be getting tons of eye candy throughout this show. MAPPA really brought their A game.

Story-wise, we still have some relatively standard shonen manga stuff, but this is still proving to be enjoyable so far. Looking forward to seeing more of the new girl.

Also, that ED aesthetic is pretty unique and flamboyantly stylish lol.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

In episode 2 we were shown a jujutsu school to train students to fight curses and Itadori Yuuji entered this school because he was a vessel for Ryomen Sukuna. I can't wait for episode 3 because I'm waiting for Kugisaki Nobara's debut.

What a great 2nd episode, they explained most of the stuff already. There's no way that Yuuji will get killed after eating all those fingers, he will be the one who will beat everyone xD

The next episode seems epic, can't wait!

Really don't see how that's the case. This isn't best shounen ever or anything, but it's doing the shounen elements well, and already has a better and more cohesive story than GoH.


I mean it's obviously not gonna be as bad as GOHS, but right now it's not a very impressive start for me, despite what you say about it doing the shounen stuff right. I agree, at least there's order in the court in this case, though not a very solidified one yet.
we are only in 2 episodes, it's waaay to early to judge.

That was a pretty great episode, it's as shounen as shounen gets but I'd say it's a pretty good shounen so far. The 3 main characters introduced as of the moment has been really great and entertaining characters. I'll definitely start the manga after the season.

Gojou is fucking awesome though, I understand why he's the goat now. Lmao, Itadori has some very specific taste in women.

Can't wait to see Nobara in action next episode. And that ED though gaddamn, it's beautiful

I said it before and I'll say it again: The Op is amazing af :D
Eve + fantastic animation and a nice art style = great
The Ed is pretty cool as well, very interesting choice :)

I'm not sure how I feel about the anime itself tho. The animation is great and the story seems promising, but the characters are kinda... meh so far. Doesn't help that we basically have Naruto, Sasuke & especially Kakashi 2.0 here.
The protagonist has something world threatening sealed inside of him, but is a nice and aloof guy. He also has a light hair color and face markings.
The "rival/friend" is a little bit hostile and edgy, has basically Sasukes hair.
The teacher, doesn't only look like Kakashi, he also covers half of his face and is OP.
I don't like any of the Naruto characters I just named, so I hope the ones in this show will not be like them.

I also don't like that the teacher is that strong. Where's the threat if he could even beat the "king of curses". He's either gonna die tragically or just be as strong as he said, so i dunno.

The girl seems cool tho. My favorite characters in Shounen often end up to be girls, cause the aren't as predictable and shallow as many of the MCs (if they are written good, which doesn't happen that often either).

These are all just observations ofc and I hope that I'll be proven comepletely wrong! :)
Curious to see how this will develop!

That fight animation was brilliant, Gojo is so cool.

I think they added a little more details to Yuuji's personality than the manga, makes him more realistic.
Nobara is coming to town!

Can't wait for the next two episodes, by then they would have covered volume 1!
I feel so impatient for this Anime because the Manga is so awesome.

I can´t help but thinking the appearance of the protagonist when possessed is a direct reference to the Demi Fiend. It literally looks the same, even the same tattoo patterns.
