| that monster isn't even close to being as strong as Sukuna even though they are in the same grade lol |
Nycro said: Main reason why in almost every scenario: Seinen > Shounen.Good episode but that stupid slapstick humour almost ruined the mood of this episode. Does anyone find it funny? It doesn't matter how good the material is, a shounen mangaka/director will always find a way to jam in unnecessary comedy to shift the mood of a scene or he'll include a character with awful comedy tropes in the main cast and ruin many scenes with it. |
 |
| An episode of a completely different depth, due to the seriousness with which the narration stands out, this does not mind and even when there are small oases of comedy, because they are well connected with the narration. The cliffhanger puts a lot of expectations, the fight between Itadori and the enemy is valid not only for the part concerning the action but also for the evolution of the character. |

This was an amazing episode. I won't deny the fact that the fight scenes were amazing. I'm not really blaming the Director much, I think he's giving more attention to this anime. GOH might have been Crunchyroll's mistake. |

| The Curse Womb Must Die mini-arc... the start of Yuuji's conquest to collect the remainder of Sukuna's fingers and testing the Jujutsu sorcerers of their capabilities to handle special-grade Curses (which are out of their league). BUT...the moment Yuuji turns into Sukuna, that's where the real mocking fun starts. Other than that, excellent episode, and 24 mins felt like 5. The manga panels had better visuals against the anime (that was kinda toned down), but the next episode, hope there's something to compensate for the lack of persepectives.  [/quote] |

| Sukuna is terrifying and strong, one more finger found. And this ending made me curious about the next episode. |

The pile of beast skulls in the manga was impressive, but that reflection had more impact for me. (Itadori or Sukuna – who is reflecting who?)  |

| A more violent episode, which I really enjoyed, shows another depth to the series. The fights were good, and we got to see more from Sukuna, who is extermely strong as he trashed that curse spirit. The cliffhanger makes me think great things are soon to happen. I'm really hyped for the next one. And how they're going to deal with Sukuna. |

You can blame anyone except Park for the goh anime,he tried his best till the end and you can see how good the animation was because of him |
Salter >>>>>> OG SABER DONT @ ME |
| Great episode. Poor Itadori is too weak on his own haha. Having to rely on Sukuna like that, reminds me of Naruto too much |
 |
| Best episode by far. |
| Another good episode. So that ending, I'm guessing that he couldn't get his body back? Man I wonder how Fushiguro is going to deal with that. The Itadori and Kugasaki duo is too funny. I love them!   |
| I like the dynamic between Sukuna and Yuuji. Yuuji has to use him as a very last resort, because Sukuna wants to actively hurt Yuuji and his friends. But Sukuna can't survive without Yuuji's body. This game they play will most likely be important as the show progresses. |
| Shit hit the fan damn, nice character development there tho |

| I'm loving this series more and more damn it. The trio is set on a mission to defeat the curse womb but everything is not going the way they want it to. The animation and the messed up illusions are a pleasure to me. It reminds me of the darker episodes of Adventure Time on the way that the world cracks and the figures are jacked up. Nobara is in serious pain and Megumi is forced to retreat. The way Yuji is regretting his defeated state is really good. He was just a normal teenager before he caught up to this mess but there's no more reason to whine about it, good. Sukuna found another of his fingers and looks like we're getting Sukuna vs Megumi next week. On another point, that mini-short in the ending was hilarious. Nobara's scream while her cellphone crash to the ground is really funny. It goes to show why Jujutsu Kaisen's comedy is really great, complimenting the action and messed up thriller it really is. |
 |
| The fight scene between Sukuna and Special Grade was absolutely gold. Cant wait for Sukuna rampage in the next episode |
| Great episode. That shrine looked so cool. A usual, Suwabe Junichi is absolutely killing his role. What a talented VA. |
 |
| Very good episode again, a pleasure to look. |
| Another great episode! I didn't think that I'd enjoy this show so much. I personally like its comedy (at least as of now) And Yuuji is great, I love him! |
 |
| This was a really mediocre episode when you compare it to the manga. Whole atmosphere just felt way too emotionless and wrong, whereas in the manga everyone was like, goddamn they fucked up and the only one who was enjoying it all was the messed up special grade curse, which in the anime didnt even feel like it had any personality whatsoever. In the end the only saving grace of this episode was Sukuna who blessed everyone and stole the show. |
| The animation is so great , and Kugisaki reminded me to Hime from Sket dance |
| Хайде, хайде, хайде, това е първата зона, брато, първа зона, първа зона, добре, добре, добре, това става тук горе, отива тук горе, само спокойно, само спокойно...

| I have a question for the manga readers. About 2 episodes ago, Gojou said that it doesn't matter if Sukuna was at full power, because he is the strongest sorcerer that exist. Is that true or he was just bluffing? If that's the case I guess the blinded Kakashi will be nerfed at some point so the main trio can grow (or maybe he was nerfed already). Btw, I still can't decide if I like the series or not because those weird comedy bits throw me off a lot (same case as KNY) however it is entertaining. And the animation is really good. |

Gojou is indeed an genius and powerful sorcerer from birth but in the end his humanity is his downside the only way I can say this without spoiling anything. Though yeah this isn't some shit like boruto where you need to nerf everyone inorder to make your main cast look powerful, all the power ups in this manga are perfectly owned by each characters through hard effort and in battle, none of that friendship bs or out of nowhere power up. |

Im just saying that he is using more of his skills and is a better director in this show. GOH was ruined most likely by Crunchyroll |

| Seriously speaking, This ep was decent, first half was fine but the second half with Sukuna was great af. He's so badass! The pacing is goood. |

| i really disappointed, why did they do the domain expansion with a far shot? there is no excuse to forgive this. yeah i know i give thanks because the the domain is not in CG...... |

They did in order to do the reflection shot in the water. Which is way more symbolic for how the technique actually works. |

| This show is awseome.The alternate personality effect(Sukuna) really adds to the seriousness of the show.Everything from the post scene credits of the previous episode to the end of this episode showed how messed situation up for our MCs.Fushigoro's face was a sight to see.Really liked how Itadori hold off on switching until he got the signal and fought on his own.DAMN Sukuna is OP,although I wasn't impressed by the whole 'proper death' thing.It was too long Wonder what happened later in the manga to have this low rating. |

Sukuna said in this episode that in fact he can survive without Yuji's body cause he has 18 other soul fragments he can just control a curse's body. But he prefers a human's body that's why he's staying with Yuji. He doesn't care if Yuji dies or not.

Dunno if the rumor's true or not. raiderublaze said: I'm loving this series more and more damn it.

Quick correction: they're not there to defeat the curse womb. they're there to search for survivors and rescue them and retreat. no fighting. Pakumen- said: I have a question for the manga readers.

If that's the case I guess the blinded Kakashi will be nerfed at some point so the main trio can grow (or maybe he was nerfed already). Gojo is THE strongest character in the entire series. He is invincible due to how his power works, HOWEVER, he can still lose. Losing doesn't mean he's defeated. There're other ways for a character to lose without being defeated by his opponents. (best way to say it without spoiling) also we won't see him 'lose' until season 2 at the earliest. Zener said: Wonder what happened later in the manga to have this low rating. the manga's score doesn't make sense, cause this series only gets better and better. im sure once the anime is finished, the anime AND the manga score will both be above an 8 because that's the least it deserves. the show is just too underrated. |
| Man, that went to shit real fast. Itadori's cursed side is freaking insane. That Domain Expansion move was sick holy shit. You cant hate Sakuna really. |

They did in order to do the reflection shot in the water. Which is way more symbolic for how the technique actually works. Sacrificing the impact that scene generates for the symbolism is irrelevant, because the point in that scene was show how strong Sakuna is, they could easily choose some scenes of the Shrine emerging from the water and then take a distant shot. and there is another problem that I will not mention since it is a spoiler |

The manga actually only gets better as it goes on. It kept a relatively low score since a lot of people rated it low at first and then dropped it now. Now that it is getting an anime adaption the manga score will probably end up being around 8.2 ish by the end. |
|
| I really liked the flames when that cursed thing burned to ashes. Also I liked the way this anime's realistic perspective on this genre. The half sliced sick dead body was pretty realistic. Also, they didn't make the Naruto - Kyuubi classic interactions. This one is sometimes funny, and the last scene was pretty scary for sure. |

Well that's a first for me.I wonder what made people score it less initially(Art maybe?).Still,I am happy that an anime will shed light on its adaptation.AoT is in good(and maybe better) hands now. |
