Todo arriving to save the day in more ways than one. While still having the same problems this whole arc has its still the best episode since Sukuna first arrived. I didn't at all like seeing Yuji just be pummeled by Mahito at the beginning of the episode. Scenes like that, same with the scene a few episodes ago with all the stabbing, I just don't enjoy its not enjoyable or meaningful in any way for the characters. Emotionally torturing the main character over and over isn't the right way for me, so it's A good thing that Todo showed up to make things better. He's an absolute powerhouse as we know so him arriving fresh to fight Mahito is perfect, motivating Yuji with some great speeches honestly. Telling him that honoring what those who've passed by carrying on what they did is important. You can't wallow in grief and still honor them you must get up. Todo using his clapping swapping technique is always awesome and I love it. The animation of course looked great during the fight kudos to the animators again. Yuji and Todo make a great team but still haven't made much headway against Mahito

The Jujutsu trio with their affluent teacher, it's past fun memories...but Gojo's death, then Mahito's, and now Nobara, how low can Mahito go to destroy Yuji's spirit?

Mahito is just ruthless being the cursed user that he is, brought on from Geto himself, and at the very least, they will not go down without a fight...not without BEST BRO Todo.

Todo and his partner of Kyoto School's 1st Year Arata Nitta inspecting the aftermath of Geto and Gojo, and surmised immediately to save whoever that's left, starting with Yuji. A little pep talk better brothers, they're not done until all of the Jujutsu sorcerers are defeated. As the fight gets on between Todo and Mahito, Yuji gets his soul back and pays Mahito back two-fold with Black Flash. With that, the brothers are back on the podium together, as Mahito has figured out Todo's switcheroo sorcery, but they're still yet far from their potential.

Miwa and the other Kyoto School Jujutsu sorcerers heading to Shibuya, as opposed to the advice that Mechamaru had told her, it was a painful scene having to have fellow sorcerers die in the midst of war, and something that she would not stand for it feeling like she's weak. Still, would they have changed the scenary, only time will tell.

BRING THE 120% POTENTIAL BROTHERS. Destroy Mahito with all you've got.

A few sequences of unfinished animation, but it looks like the animators are managing their resourses better, now. I'm really glad, as Aoi Todo deserves a triumphant return.

Boy, do I hate waiting a whole week for the next episode, but the staff probably wants the time to last as long as possible.

Itadori's VA did an amazing job for making me almost cry like a baby
Mahito's VA did an amazing job for hating him even more.

Amazing animation. Even tho that todo and train scene was weird asf (also todo and yuji running upstairs is weird as well) the fight has an amazing animation
Thank you JJK TEAM
@HEBI_TAN Both of those animations were "missing" frames, that's why it looked weird. I'd say the quality of the episode was quite high overall, though.

@Peenutz lmao the best animated part? you're reaching so high with this one, this was a good episode and had great looking sequences, but this was absolutely not the best one, why some people act like "good animation" is simply things moving in high speed? where's the drawing and character design consistency? Sousou no Frieren is the perfect example of a actual amazingly well animated show where you have character model and art being 100% consistent during action sequences while in this scene in question the characters looks like shit, it looks like some fan animation video you will see on Twitter
@Shinuki_n_Reborn and why do people act like character designs need to be 100% consistent. Animation thats inconsistent can often times be the best. This part of the episode was the most impressively animated part for several reasons. And I'm not saying consistency in character designs is bad or even worse, both can be quite impressive and also quite weak. But animation is not a single drawing, its the trick of motion that combining several drawings together can create. Therefore not every drawing in a shot should be a beautiful wallpaper worthy drawing. Sometimes its better to bend the anatomy past whats really possible or to warp the drawing. Whatever looks best in motion is what ultimately looks better.

Yet another fantastic episode. Although the start was dark and I knew what's gonna happen based on the previous episode, it was still hard to accept. Yet, I'd still be willing to hold on to that sliver of hope that Nobara might survive.
Todo's entrance was fantastic. The fight was insane and well-adapted, although a few parts seemed a bit less cohesive, making me question the overall flow of the fight, it did little to damper my overall enjoyment.
Another praiseworthy highlight of this episode would be that the voice actor for Mahito went all out in this episode. And hey, we finally got the brothers reunion :P

Decent episode again with very mixed animation & choreography. The direction was top-notch for the most part but that entrance music for Todo just felt way off the vibe

Baffling Yuji still has it in him, Mahito's VA was going unnecessarily overboard too, some of it cringe, some of it pumping

Next ep could be a banger, one last blow-out before season ends? ~~

But next episode has to be epic, can't wait!

Sometimes I feel like Gojo made the wrong call not executing Itadori. Everyone fights on. He crumbles and cries.

And, honestly I've had enough of Mahito and his looney tunes bullshit. I enjoyed the character and his powers in season 1. The transfiguration stuff is sinister, but I am so tired of him changing his own body. Him changing other people = AWESOME. Him changing his own body = FUCK OFF. Every fight he's been in this season has felt like a waste of time as he seems to take very little damage. None of the hits on him ever feel impactful as he's basically a gag character like Plastic Man. I am so over any fights with him and need him to die ASAP.

To be frank by now I am dumbfounded how Tokyo still remains in one piece after all that annihilation. Even Shibuya, the epicenter, is or is not a pile of rumble -let's not forget that nuclear-scale crater either...- depending on the needs of the plot...

Furthermore fast action scenes require a crapload of key frames which clearly have been drawn sloppily. MAPPA employees are overworked is an understatement; more likely they've been worked to the bone.

I'm beginning to like Mahito more and more. He's actually bringing up some interesting points, even if he's completely insane and an irrational liar who just wants to kill.

I wish there wasn't any dimming because this episode had such weird hq animation.

An incredible voice acting performance from Mahito's VA, Nobunaga. Seriously, top, top tier stuff.

Obviously, as we expected, the animation quality is slipping, but given the troubles behind the scenes it's still better than I'd feared.
Not to mention, with the plot ramping up like this, it's hard to care too much about how it looks from time-to-time!

Could Kugisaki still be saved? It sure seems that way. But we can only hope.

@Shinuki_n_Reborn As for me, this moment still looks cool due to the music. And I also have a theory that the animators in this segment wanted to show the dynamic change of Mahito's body, because everything seems to be fine with Todo at this moment.

Phenomenal episode all the way.

Not only did Todo finally made his appearance to aid his "brother" in his crushing moment, the fight animation was just on another level and you could feel the impact of every blow, switch and dodge in it. Itadori's devastated by the deaths of his superiors, friends and everyone who confronted the spirits but Todo's is also right that the answer to what was left behind by them and what he needs to get from it is something for another time. The priorities were set and the battle kicked up the notch to 120%.

Also a special mention to Miwa's team who was deviated by Mechamaru told them just as he confessed his desires, not only of love but of protection. They may or may not play any part in the incident but you could really feel Miwa's devastated soul through the screen. Indeed, they would have probably died had they been there but I can feel for them regardless.

3 more episodes to go for this amazing season.

I just realized why, in the opening, Nobara has her hand on the left side of her face. Speaking of the opening, some parts of it changed (Shibuya getting Sukuna'd at the end).
They also used that aerial view of the city from the first S1 opening during one of Toudou's monologues.

Well, female characters usually have a plot armour a bit thicker and Blonde Guy somehow managed to stabilize Nobara, despite her no longer having a pulse. I guess this foreshadows, that she will survive. Can't wait to see her with an eye patch.

Both of them are the best new generation VA right now.

My Brother Todo is here!!

Thanks to all the hard work from the Animators, you guys are killing it again and again!!
