| (I guess anime-only watchers can also answer) Which arc do you think was overall handled better this season? Imo, I think Hidden Inventory is done better because of its consistency, and its really the best adapation I could have asked for. Even the MV for op and ed are godly. Shibuya Arc is done well too, for the most part. But we have some episodes where the animation is weaker comepared to other episodes, like ep 8 (grasshopper) and ep 14 (dagon domain). I also didn't vibe with the art style changes midway Shibuya (most notably ep 16 and 17), but I think Shibuya Arc also has some of the peak episodes JJK anime offered so far. Nevertheless, it would be generally unfair to compare both arcs since Shibuya Arc is longer. However just for the sake of comparison, I liked how Hidden Inventory was handled more, although both arcs are great. |

| Hidden inventory was perfect as an adaptation. Shibuya had some flaws, but the highs made up for it. |

| Hidden Inventory is a 10/10 adaptation. Since shibuya is a long arc, I would rank shibuya fights that were adapted beautifuly 1. Yuji vs Choso (Undoubtedly the most polished fight in Shibuya arc) 2. Sukuna vs Jogo and Toji vs Meguimi (both are on the same level, I don't mind style change, the animation is fantastic, but some paused/dialogue scenes are off model) 3. Itadori and Todo vs Mahito & Itadori and Nobara vs Mahito (both on the same level and have adapted beautifuly, with amazing animation that only have few flaws) 4. Choso vs Kenjaku (Might be an unmemorable fight, but this is one of my fav fight after watching the anime ver because the fight in the manga didn't go this hard) 5. Toji vs Dagon (Perfect music direction and nice animation) 6. Sukuna vs Mahoraga (isn't my favorite because the fight is hard to follow. But that fight has an amazing animation. Don't get me wrong. I did expect a lower quality from Sukuna vs Mahoraga when I read the manga) This is a personal list btw, pls don't attack me ;-; |

why does everyone forget mechamaru vs mahito, it was the first fight while being one of the best
| @Khushal_v That episoide is in a weird position since it isn't the first fight. Its not part of hidden inventory arc nor shibuya arc, but more like an in-between. But if you want to, you can include it as part of Shibuya arc |

| @Khushal_v i forgor. But Mahito vs Mechamaru js amazing dw. Shocked when I saw ttgl references |
We all have shit taste, especially in animes No one's right, no one's wrong |
| Both good. S2 is far better than S1 imo. |
| Hidden Inventory got the better adaption, no contest. Shibuya was a mess every 2nd episode. However you are asking on an anime forum. People will read the question as "what arc is better" so its no surprise that so many voted for Shibuya. That or some people like @ThatLofiGuy are so blind that dont see any issues at all. Lol. |
| Hmmm... Hidden Inventory was consistent the whole way through. Nice additions, some extensions in fights, really good direction. Shibuya had some noticable blemishes here and there. Way more additions and extensions than Hidden Inventory though and the direction held up. I'd say Hidden Inventory solidly had the better adaptation but they still did a stellar job with Shibuya regardless |

Hidden inventory is the most cleanest of adaptations you’ll see out there. Just flawless really. Shibuya had higher highs but consistency in production wasn’t there. In the end both balance each other out
| @LeoDrago Yeah thats true. But if you think Hidden Inventory is flawless, then doesnt that make the adapation better? |

Hidden Inventory getting the better adaption makes sense, but considering it’s so short, I don’t feel like it’s a fair comparison.
Maybe since you’ve been blinded by your expectations as a manga reader, you aren’t able to experience the show and incredible production without your expectations ruining it for you. As an Anime only who’s only watching to enjoy the series, I genuinely don’t see what you mean by it being a mess every 2nd episode. I feel every episode was executed (more specifically every fight) very well. I don’t get why all the manga readers look at fights like Sukuna vs Mahoraga, and immediately decide it’s unacceptable and have to complain. You mean to tell me those fights weren’t good at all in your eyes?
I don’t know, maybe I need to watch the season again. But as someone who wasn’t especially looking forward to this season, and as someone who found season 1 kind of boring and wasn’t one of my favorites of the year like many other watchers, I didn’t have high expectations for this season. So I’ve been genuinely shocked of the production quality of every episode, no bias whatsoever.

Sukuna vs Mahoraga criticism was valid for the most part. The episode only achieved like 30% of the original vision MAPPA had for it. Composition and polish at the end of the fight wasn’t that great either. But it wasn’t unwatchable or bad by any means. Just not up to standard with the rest of the season.
| @LeoDrago Also this I agree with you too |

Because it’s kind of silly:
- The ability to produce the giant mech is …questionable … to say the least.
- It feels weird stylistically to have a giant mech in a Shonen with sorcery, doesn’t match the vibe.
- Kirito VA kind of adds to the silliness. I just can’t hear that voice and not immediately downplay the character in my head.
Maybe it was animated well, but the creator really should have thought of something else for the fight. That’s the core issue here.
| @ghier Yeah, this is a good point. Jujutsu Kaisen is literally socerery fight, but to think they have a big EVA fighting a flying Mahito that transitions to different animals while running around just feels out of the picture. |

| hidden inventory didn't miss while a couple episodes of shibuya did. |
