| Nobara still has a small chance of surviving, that's good enough for me! Todo the chad finally came! Let's go brudda 💪 |
| oh my god Todo is so ludicrously AWESOME |
| Bro that was foul. They really threw her death face right after the happy moment scene. Itadori is a broken man. He's a husk of the man he was before. This arc really took a toll on him and will change him forever. Todo's entry was badass fr. He's real bro. His boogie-woogie is so simple yet fun. And his sync with Itadori is amazing. Imagine if Todo teamed up with someone like Toji. He would be untouchable fr. Bro hit that MHA ass black flash lmao The Kyoto school's first year was giving us copium coz ain't no way Gege is bringing back Nobara. I guess this was Mechamaru's final sendoff. Rip |

| Thunderclap: "WHOA" Right and Wrong: "Damn." It just all seems to hit even harder on second viewing. For me, it's Yuji's "I'm sorry, Nanamin, for using my sins as an excuse to give up... from now, I'll take on your share of suffering." This is after all Todo told him about how you were free from all karma once you become a jujutsu sorcerer; the only sin you could commit is not continuing the fight in their place. And of course the whole train scene between Miwa and Mechamaru just gets to you, honestly one of my favourite scenes in JJK (would have to thing real long and hard about it, but might just be my favourite. It's kind of hard to do when you pretty much just love everything equally as a whole in this series), just thought it was a bit randomly placed in the middle of the fight. It sort of makes sense since Todo has arrived on scene, so it wouldn't hurt to show the rest of the Kyoto school as well. Speaking of Todo though; dang I don't remember this fight going this hard- definitely tops his first tag team fight with Yuji against Hanami in the first season. The first one had the novelty of Todo's technique going for it; but this one raises the intensity. |
  NYANPASU  whiskey tango foxtrot |
| peak sad for Yuji ITS TODO TIME BROTHER i love him hes so epic |
  me candies:        |
| Gege: yeah see this 15 year old teen that just lost most of his friends and buddies and realized that he indirectly created a 140 meter hole onto the middle of Shibuya? Let’s hit him with a Black Flash and a consecutive beatdown!!!!! that’ll teach him!!! Hearing that clap is like the biggest relief in this entire series… knowing my glorious king Todo is here to save the day… Itadori was not feeling him though LMAO  |
| A complete episode for once. It's far too late but that's cool we actually got one for the first time since the opening arc. La-di-da. |
Reply to CobraNotKatsura
@Nycro bruh literally how wqs this a good ep. so many better fight scenes and dialogues
| @CobraNotKatsura I bet you also think that Gojo vs Disaster Curses was well adapted. |
| Todo to the rescue! Hope this epic fight will reach its conclusion! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Just when it looked like all hope had been lost for Itodori, Aoi arrives to not only rescue him but give him the boost he needed to fight back. We also got another emotional moment with Kasumi and Mechamaru, making for quite the episode. |
 |
| Patchface really really overstayed his welcome in this show, I hate those characters who just scream all the time. |
| Todo knows how to bring life into a dead character(yuji) lol. Dude is such a hype beast |
| Kinda fine, thank God Todo came in, with that clap move, a bit imbalance but at least it is interesting to watch, not just a strength measure fight tho AND IS MAJITO BEATABLE???????? |
| Yuuji’s mental health is at all low, and has lost all will to fight or react to Mahito. Mahito is just yapping a lot. When he was about to kill Yuuji, Aoi arrived. When Aoi arrived, Kenjaku had already left with the prison realm containing Gojo. So he decides to help his allies. Another Nitta uses his cursed technique on Yuuji and Nobara, to help with pain and bleeding. Aoi opens Yuuji’s eyes, and he agrees with him. Aoi and Yuuji attack Mahito together. |

| There were quite the number of well animated fights throughout season 1, but season 2 really kicks that up a few notches, huh. Before starting JJK, I only knew of its memes out of context, as well as vague comparisons to Chainsawman. I got the general idea of an organization fighting monsters that are the embodiment of the worst fears of humanity, ranging from the supernatural, to natural disasters, to things spawned from other humans. Now, in my mind, I'd compare it to Chainsawman in terms of overarching themes, but it reminds me a lot more of Hunter x Hunter than anything else. From Hunter x Hunter, I can see the wacky and crazy abilities taken to their logical extremes, particularly when they're perfectly matched up in fights against their direct counters. Both have the concept of applying risks and restrictions on your abilities to increase their effects. I can see the bright young protagonist continuously have his optimism beat out of him before getting reformed in a compromised fashion. I can see a vague sense of pathos given to its villainous group, despite the stacks of bodies they've collected. It feels like JJK tries to touch on a number of themes in quick succession, such as the consolidation of power with the old/wealthy/powerful, weighing the worth of the few over the many, the origins of human evil and whether any amount of good can offset it, and general noblesse oblige for sorcerers. For all its talk though, it really comes down to whomever is stronger making the rules. It all started with a power struggle during Gojo's time as a student, and it'll end with another one I'm assuming, but with Itadori's generation. Well, unless people keep trying to compete for power, which I guess is a foregone conclusion. Anyways, the fight scenes are certainly a wonder to behold. I like how Itadori, Todo, and Mahito started midway in the subway underground, fight all the way into its depths, then fight all the way back up. The fights really are dynamic, and some of them get really creative. I really liked the section where Mahito tried to crush himself and Itadori, so they had to fight between a wall of concrete and a wall of mutated flesh that kept morphing into dangerous obstacles. In general, I have a distaste for deaths, but alas. That aside, I wasn't sure about Kugisaki getting seemingly killed, but then the show immediately semi-saves her with a vague "maybe she died, maybe she didn't" move. Not exactly sure where JJK is going with this, but again, regardless if this means death is fickle, I'd like for characters to actually survive and be part of more stories, rather than cutting their own stories short just to further the stories of others. I will say though, the one thing that bothers me greatly throughout all of this Shibuya arc: why are civilians still meandering about in the open? How are they not hiding, running away, or already dead? |
