This episode is good but the animation is just too choppy ngl. idk if it's the framing or something but it was very hard to follow the movement.

As much as i enjoyed this masterpiece of an episode, what is happening at mappa and how the animators are overworked as hell makes me feel bad about the quality of the animation. If the animators succeed under the insane pressure it will just be a W for mappa and nothing of their hellish work ethic will change when it should.

This shit is so good!! damn

Crazy that Megumi had a trump card like that (although it'd normally be at the cost of his life)

Sukuna time is over. That was absolute chaos these last few eps!!

So glad annoying blonde dude is dead lol

I'm surprised Sukuna's destruction didn't reach any other sorcerers or curses

Fuck Mappa. You have done an outstanding job, animators!

Also, the jujutsu talk like the domain stuff and the powers everyone has goes completely over my head tbh.

Enjoyed The Fuck Out Of The Story Side Of This Episode But Hated MAPPA For Not Give Enough Time For Compositing. This Episode Really Had Good Raw Animation But Was Held Back By Not Enough Time Spent On Compositing Hope They Fix This In The Blu-ray Release
And Animation Style Like Bakemonogatari Was Quiet Fun And Good Looking
And Guys Don't Hate On Animators Animation Was 9/10 But Compositing Was 4/10
Compositing Really Held Back This Episode

Production issues is what it is. But whoever decided to put the OP song during Itadori's meltdown is a clown. Showing Nanami for the sake of having a cliffhanger every single episode just ruins the whole thing. By that point we already know he is going to not end well. Why cant it just end with Itadori?
@Nycro because it adds more chaos to the feeling of destruction, yes it was destructive but barely anyone important was involved other than yuji have a breakdown, the nanami scene showed us that sukuna running around was a tragedy, it adds to the despair.

Imagine crying over cliffhangers, do something better in life man, its just next Thursday anyway, teasers don't ruin anything.

I was going to ask if it's the next episode where everything presumably turns to shit, but after seeing this...

Look how they (MAPPA) massacred my boy (Jujutsu Kaisen).
@Acausal I'm sorry but your second line made me think of this lol:

this season has really been magical, I leave every episode with my jaw on the floor; I thought the last fight would've been the best this season but wow this episode left me speechless. I don't even want to know what is going to happen to Nanami after that cliffhanger though.

The animation esp as the season progressed does leave much to be desired, even moreso for a series such as jujutsu kaisen. There are some decent scenes this season but the inconsistency is somewhat of a killer.

Edit: Forgot to add but I hope the animators receive better treatment from their studio.

this episode was the best episode of jujutsu kaisen I watched so far/Sakuna was so drip in this ep/the fight was incredible, and Megumi was the person Sakuna don't want to kill he want to use him for what I don't know the reason/and Nanami is alive but what about maki and that zenin old man?/and what will Yuji do now?.

Megumi being trained by Gojo, which both Gojo and the Zen'in clans are in dispute, that was a realistic thought. But while the exorcism ritual of Megumi summoning the Eight-Handed Sword shikigami easily outmaneuvers Shigemo Haruta, Sukuna saves him out of trouble, he still needs them both for his plan, but to face Makora and defeat it first. The relentless battle between Sukuna and Makora with death-creating animation and destruction (theoretically extending the fight from the manga) is phenomenal, and the former has to activate his Domain Expansion: Malevolent Kitchen to contain the blast outside of Megumi's range.

When Yuji is reverted back to his self, Shibuya's destruction is unprecedented (giving rise to the eventual Shibuya Incident), and that's how he knew that he was going to be executed if he doesn't keep things moving. And Nanami is still alive...somehow.

MAPPA may be dogshit, but its staff (and ESPECIALLY the animators) worked their damnest to deliver this episode BIG TIME, and somehow by luck against all deadlines, it shows.

It's crazy how I'm being forced into liking Sukuna with how much sauce he's getting in the anime. I swear, I didn't care that much about him in the manga or before this season began but now he's just shot up to my top 3.

As a manga reader, the animation is'nt so good, many things are so confusing and I also don't like so much this director. Also, the figt is so much along, I think thatIt wasn't necessary to drag out this fight so much, only 5 or 7 minutes of this fight would have been enough

I feel like I'm watching a different series from anyone else, cuz this fight scene was quite bad lol, wtf was even happening? 80% of the episode was random shots of buildings and colors.
Also, super scuffed Malevolent Shrine, specially compared to the Malevolent Shrine from S1.

How much are the animators selling their souls to do this, because geez that was amazing in terms of visuals. Unpolished for sure, but that's kind of the identity of Season 2 so far, minimalistic designs with fluid animation. Reminds me of Mob Psycho in a way with the choreography. Loved all the colours and the overall direction.

Now to the bummer part of all this, as this might be the "peak" of the season, and it could go downhill from here, as I'm sure many of you have heard already with the whole situation with MAPPA. They'll do everything they can to crawl over that finish line, and it won't be pretty. Whatever happens, happens. The animators deserve everything, not the studio.

The nitpick that I have is definitely the decision to play the OP during Yuuji's breakdown. Silence would have been perfect there to give more of a gloomy, bone-chilling atmosphere. Otherwise, the same issue remains, in that I personally don't really care too much about the story at this point as its mostly just epic fights.

I was annoyed that they played the opening at Yuji’s breakdown too, like the ending would’ve been fine, or what I was hoping for is that they’d bring back “Give It Back” (Ending 2) for that scene cause I always imagined that song with that scene, the only reason why I think the opening was chosen was cause 1 they felt they had to include the opening somehow in the episode and 2 cause of Yuji’s ending line of the episode “No, I have to fight…or I’m a murderer” since he was motivating himself to move forward so in that sense I can understand why the opening was played at that scenes but it still felt awkward, like I said I think “Give It Back” would’ve hit was that scene, or just use the ending for this arc, or just create an original insert song that’d be played at that scene
