Its no hidden secret that Jujutsu Kaisen is one of the most popular shows to bot, character favorites wise. It happens every year with the most popular anime. First it was attack on titan, then, Re;zero, then demon slayer, and now Jujutsu Kaisen.

Why does Sukuna have over 7k favorites? Not only is he not even a true character, but he has less than a full episodes worth of screen time over the entirety of the first season. For him to have nearly as many favorites as Megumi, the most complex character of the show, is proof enough that heavy botting is going on.

Apparently Sukuna is really popular on TikTok. There are a lot of trends and/or edits or something. That might contribute to it.

Because the manga exists and there are really good moments that happen in the manga with him (not all favorites are from anime watchers)

Those favourites aren’t just from watching the anime, manga readers too have marked Sukuna their favourite

Because of simps, so ofc theyre gonna vote for their favorite character, besides I wouldnt really think much about it, those are just favorites after all. Favorites dont really define if a character is complex or well written or whatnot. If a character is complex, but they dont look that attractive, charismatic, interesting etc. to the viewers, it's possible that their favorites would be low, again it depends.


Edit: i mean i aint blaming them, he kinda fine

Probably because of the manga, it’s how like in my hero’s anime there is no way shigaraki would have a bunch of favourites but where he is at in the manga I think he is a great character jujutsu kaisen is also one of the biggest manga in the world right now so a lot more people have seen what he does later on

Don't know if you're being oblivious on purpose but by a ripoff I mean

- Mysterious chad emo boy of the idiot

- one who thought he was the talented

It just means you didn't watch the show properly. The only thing Megumi and Sasuke have in common is their hair colour. They couldn't be more different. He isn't a "mysterious chad". He isn't emo. He doesn't consider Itadori as his rival. He is Itadori's genuine friend. He is talented. His only problem is that he held himself back. Did you watch episode 23? He was able to pull off an incomplete Domain. Tell me any other sorcerer who can pull off a Domain besides Gojo. Only Gojo could, right? Even Nanami, who is a Grade 1 couldn't. Yuji can't.

And Yuji is far from an idiot. I am not going to argue about that though. That's a discussion for another day.

While its true that series like Jjk has far too many bots, but sukuna is still a pretty popular character. Manga readers might not contribute to such a big number, but still many anime viewers, especially girls do like him.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

There's no need to watch the show properly. Anyone with common sense can understand they aren't the same.

You are making some stupid nonexistent connections and trying to support your absolutely baseless claims. I am not in denial. You cannot look past your hatred for the show.

You could not counter my points and thus resorted to ad hominem attacks.

So no JJK :P

That's just according to MAL's definition of bots. Can't trust the data. Also, I was talking about a character from Code Geass. Not the show. Lelouch. Do you have the data for the characters? I am sure Lelouch is botted a LOT. Just like the other characters at the top.

Anyway, I was just trying to mess with you. I don't care about bots. And Sukuna favourites are mostly manga readers and a lot of anime onlies who find him cool.

Because most of his favourites come from manga readers. He wasn't a big character in the manga when the anime started airing. He was still famous though. And anyway, there are also a lot of anime onlies who find him "cool". And now it has been 1.5 years since the anime and ~4 years since the start of the manga. There's nothing fishy about the favourites.

I just checked. He had more than 5000 favourites in April 2021. This is the earliest you can go back too. Where did you find one from October 2020?

Then to you, every series or show with 1 girl, 2 boys kind of team would be a rip off of team 7 in Naruto. In fact, not just team 7, why don't we throw in team 8 and team 3. Don't forget Team 7 version 2 with Sai and Yamato. I was gonna include team 10 but I realised Shikamaru ain't edgy enough.

JJK might be mediocre but Naruto as well. Maybe in your opinion, Naruto is awesome but in my view, Naruto was as mediocre as JJK is.
I used to think Naruto was awesome. But since it ended, it has been almost 3 years. I think to myself it was not actually that deep.

I don't know what you see in JJK that is similar to Naruto but some people just don't see it. So just accept that.

Maybe to them, there is something. Just something. But we can't see

But I dunno. Other than having 1 girl and 3 boys with a teacher kind of team, I don't see anything beyond that. Gojo might look like Kakashi and have similar characters but Gojo kinda set himself apart even if it is through comedy.

Itadori isn't as dumb as Naruto has been. He does certainly acts clueless at times. Nobara is not like Sakura at all! Okay, maybe their angry reactions but apart from that, I don't see Sakura in Nobara. Gege actually wrote a girl character. not like Kishimoto who seemed clueless with half the girls he wrote in Naruto.

So what was that guy even on about?

this is like trying to argue that an apple and a different colored apple arent both an apple. Naruto very clearly coined many concepts that JJK copied. The fact that you are having to make excuses on the similiarties shows you already refuse to even acknowledge the concept of JJK copying naruto
