| what will happen to gojo starou |

I liked the part where the old hag (whoever she is) explains what Satoru was doing on-screen and what happens afterwards. Great example of show, don't te- oh. Nevermind.
Another kack-handed explanation of things happening, the brain reveal out of fucking nowhere and Satoru randomly being locked in a prison (how and why, exactly? Did I nod off when that was explained by a character on screen?) are more hilarious ass-pulls that make me scratch my head as to why anyone is seriously invested in this.
Welp, at least the animation was fun to watch and turn your brain off to.
F to Satoru and all his stans (you basic bitches, lmao) and hopefully we can get some fucking character development now. Not that my hopes are high in that regard..

| @The_Undying Some things are impossible to show and they need some verbal explanation. Gojo's 0.2s domain expansion is exactly one of these things. And it was explained how he was captured, you should've watched and listened more carefully. Prison Realm works if after its opening the victim stands nearby the Realm for one minute. But not the real time minute, the one that passes inside the victim's mind. For example, if they get hypnotised into dreaming, then they will get captured in 1 second. In Gojo's case he was shocked and happy that his best friend is still alive and unwillingly remembereed all the good old times he spent with him. Edit: I find it funny how firstly you complained about "telling, not showing", and then scratched your head when the anime showed some information, not told. |

| Imagine normies saying: "Peaky Blinders is mid and overhyped. Just another typical crime drama show. Breaking Bad is much better lol.". |
| What a fitting time for Gojo to be sealed. |

I understand what you are saying, but I can actually see Shoko helping out. Not like Geto dying would've made her very happy...
| @10vely Oh, absolutely, like, I legit think that was a possibility and I wouldn't have put it past either Gojo or Shoko to make that call. It's not the choice he ultimately made, and on meta level, not a choice he could've made if Gege wanted to write the story we now have, but still, it was a not improbable option imo |
| What an amazing episode- tragic and sweet. Gosso and Okuda did incredible with this episode and the team obviously knew it was important. The SB and animation were just so good and the direction was great. The emotions were just as they should be all throughout. Great art and comp. |
| oh god another banger of an episode! i didn't expect that Geto isn't anymore the real Geto...sad. no more Gojo for a while. 5/5! |

And people said Bleach is a slideshow. Expected something better after "minor" fight from prev episode. Also what's with these all people? Almost 0 reactions and movement, are they mannequins waiting to be killed or what? Funny that author got rid off the only one character who draws in audience
| @82926 While I agree that it looks cheap objectively, I was actually trying to think how would a normal person even react in this kind of situation? You are limited by the space of the platform and (a few seconds later) there's absurd monsters turned into reality in all directions. Do you lie on the ground in a fetal posе? Make an attempt to run through the chaos dying from an attack coming from a random direction? Or just accept your ridiculous death where you stand. Again, this does not excuse lazy animation, just terrifying if you give it a thought. I'm somewhat disappointed that Geto is replaced by some alien brain, since it's sad to see him reduced to a puppet, even if he was a complete psycho. On the other hand, this gives more weight to the act of Gojo putting down his friend. I really hope that Yuta makes this impostor regret shittalking him. |

| Being a manga reader and anime watcher seeing Gojo's character, thus, far, is certainly an experience. |
| Gojo Satoru has been sealed…… |

| @Ki11grave Interesting, must have missed that. Cheers for the explanation, maybe I should stop watching it when tired. :P |
| Well.. that was creep as fuck |
 |
| Yuuji is so cute when he smiles and Satoru Gojo-sensei is really such an amazing sorcerer... |
| Whoah!! What a plot twist this episode had! All this time I thought it was Geto but he died in the ending of the "zero" movie and was actually killed by Gojo. His body is occupied by someone a total creep. Gojo handled the situation before that amazingly and he even got a smile on his face for a moment when he thought it was Geto in front of him but he recognised it wasn't Geto. But now Gojo has been sealed!! Now I'm wondering when Yuta will return and how strong he will be, but still I'll wait for Gojo's return. How was Mechamaru communicating with Yuuji? Didn't he die? |

| I love shibuya arc. Ive been waiting for this arc for a long time but im not enjoying it and the reason for that are the toxic gojo fandom who're sucking the fun outta this anime! (Im especially angry at those gojo fans who sent death threats to gege! What ungrateful buncha clowns) |
  🌸伊黒さん、お願い…もし生まれ変わってまた人間に戻れたら、…..🌸 |
| Just watched this episode and WOWOWOWOWOWO!!!!!!!!!!! Gojo Satoru has been sealed!!! literal goosebumps!!! The entire domain scene was absolutely awesome, seeing Gojo sprint around at full speed and destroying everything was so badass!!! It's taken me a while to get back into JJK because of being occupied by other series but I'm BACK!!!! |
| Starting with the question what the students think about Gojo kinda gave me strange feeling. This is obviously not on the same level as a flashback shown, but I knew that something was about to happen. This episode definitely didn't hesitate to deliver us an absolute action packed sequence. To think that Gojo only used basic cursed manipulation + martial arts and still was kicking everyone's ass is just insane to me. Even when Jogo tried to distract him from killing Hanami, Gojo didn't even feel like it was necessary to pay attention to it. RIP Hanami. With the arrival of the train full of transfigured humans and Mahito, the stress on Gojo heavily increased. I honestly didn't expect him to use his Domain Expansion in such a unique way. What had me in even more disbelief was the fact that he slaughtered the roughly 1000 transfigured humans in 299 seconds. Holy shit. Gojo is such completely nuts. However, the special grades already bought enough time for "Geto" to finally be able to seal Gojo. Unfortunately I haven't seen the movie yet. So there's some information missing for me, like what happened with Geto exactly. But even if this is now a bit obsolete, Gojo noticed pretty quickly that this was not the Geto he knew from before and with whom he had experienced so much. What followed was simply disgusting. That explains this weird Frankenstein looking scar on Geto's forehead. Nevertheless, I wonder where exactly this thing came from, as it seems to have been targeting Geto's body for a long time. I also wonder if there's anything left of the real Geto, because the way he greeted Gojo looked pretty abnormal. For a split second I got a little confused when Mechmaru's voice told Yuuji that Gojo was sealed. Is this a recording? Did Mechamaru actually survive? The latter I actually find hard to imagine, but I guess we'll find out in the next few episodes. In general the stakes got even higher and fights will undoubtedly become insanely intense. Btw, the animation was absolutely fine. Some people should probably see an ophthalmologist. |

| I loved the way Gojo took out Hanami. First, he outsmarted and then turned her into a paste on the wall. Looks like fake Geto's plan worked in the end. Now we need a Gojo rescue arc ASAP! I didn't expect to hear Mechamaru's voice again. Seems he didn't die in vain after all. |
 |
| Gojo really having to make the tough decisions in this one... Though the whole confrontation up to and including the prison realm has been adapted really well, considering what they had to do. Also the reveal of "Geto" was as creepy as you would expect it to be. |
 |
| Ok my little satosugu heart CAN NOT STAND THIS |
| The plan was very well laid out and Gojo was captured! kekeke |
| 4/5 Good recovery from what was the most horrible episode of JJK last week. People might still complain about the ghosting or dimming but the direction, compositions, sound design & VA work were all on point with very consistent fluid animation The fight between Jogo & co was great, Gojo's crazy side was at full display which i prefer more than the manga itself. RIP Hanami btw, literally splattered like a painting. Gojo's 299 seconds massacre was also a highlight although i might need more time to get adjusted to the Narrator. I usually love my narrators but their voice kinda annoys me ngl. Gojo gets duked by "Geto" which subsequently gets Gojo sealed and reveals a crazy twist with a brain curse taking over Geto's body. Yep, Geto confirmed well & dead and all hell boutta let loose ~~ |

| This episode finally explained what happened at the end of the Zero movie, i.e. why it was implied that Gojo might have killed Soguru but without showing it. If they had shown clearly that he killed him we'd all have wondered why on Earth Soguru was alive years later. So they left it open to have us think he might have spared him, because he was his best friend. This episode also explained why no one ever looked for or suspected Soguru in season 1. They didn't think he was dead, he actually was - yet became a puppet of that... brain with teeth (brains need to eat too apparently). That ambiguity, along with the moral shadiness of Gojo in the past (with the real Soguru acting as his moral compass before going dark) had made me suspect that Gojo might have been working with Soguru behind the scenes during season 1. I mean if he hadn't killed him he would be the only one who knew that. But that wasn't the case at all. I think they handled this in a very smart way, to have us wonder about Gojo's agenda after watching the movie. So Gojo was sealed. Will he remain sealed? |

| This will be one of the most memorable episodes. Gojo Satoru has been sealed. |
