| I was wondering about whether or not to watch this show as I realized its name is not just Japanese for Demon Slayer. Does it have a story with interesting world like Berserk or AOT or is it just about fights and powerups like DBZ, One Piece, Fairy Tail etc....? |

NoBoDY-5 said: The story is not like berserk or AOT it is similar to bleach and season 1 is not that good but I like the manga because of the later arcs first few arcs are pretty average.In other words season 1 is just about fights and powerups. Ok so what would later arcs be about? And what makes them special? |

Apart from that i really don't want to explain about the anime.... |

is it just about fights and powerups One Piece what? Anyway Jujutsu Kaisen didn't really flesh out much about the world based on just the first season. If you're expecting Berserk / AOT type of series, this is not for you. It's more of a basic battle shonen so far. It has some cool battle scenes though but doesn't look like that's what you're looking for. |

It is like most shonens like Fairy Tail and Demon Slaye in a story sense. Its story is nothing like AOT or Berserk As for power ups, it does have the concept of course techniques which are used to defeat curses in the series. However, the show most certainly makes up for it with likeable characters, nuts to busts, high octane action sequences, fantastic visuals, and a cool premise, not the most original but they execute it well enough to keep you intrigued. This show is in my opinion shonen perfection and I highly recommend it. |
| So far in, it's the latter, albeit a bit darker. But I've heard shit gets real serious S2 onwards. |
NoBoDY-5 said: More interesting characters are shown as I'm not a fan of the main characters the side characters are more interesting.The power ups are also cool and if you are hxh fans then their higher chances that you will like the later arcs because it is very similar to it. Ah that sounds interesting, so is it like HxH in the sense that it doesn't rely too much on the main characters (and sometimes abandons them lol)?

It has one of the biggest plots in all of anime. and Yeah Jjk is worth watching if you like cool characters and well choreographed fights.. it has better fights than Demon slayer for sure.. it is not just Flashy animation. Of course all animes have stories, the A-to-Bs and what not... I'm talking about execution, rather. Like there are shows that serve the fighting aspect more and rely on it to solve problems so much to the point where it feels that the fight IS the main point and it can get quite repetitive and soap-opera-like. But that's not really what I'm looking for here. |

| Not really. It is a pretty generic shonen. |

Firstly, One Piece would fall into the former category. At the very least, from what I have read so far, its world-building has been better than AoT. Secondly, as of the first season, JJK's story and characters are below-average, as far as motivations go. Even then, I would recommend watching it just for the audio-visuals.

| No. - Weak worldbuilding - Weak characters - Weak musics (Random rap music everywhere) - Weak motivations - Weak copy paste backstories - Generic power system - Same generic shounen arcs without any change (Tournament arc etc. etc.) |

| JJK does sorcery fighting shounen with a unique, darker-than-usual aesthetic, interesting-ish characters, nice sakuga, and a handful of badass moments that are hard to forget, especially in S2. the openings also go hard as fuck, which is a bonus. it's generally one of the better shounen anime imo, and the pacing is good. pretty easy to binge. but ultimately it doesn't bring much more to the table than it's predecessors in my opinion—it only hones familiar themes into a more condensed/enjoyable form. a decent 6/10 |

Killer-King said: RioFS said: One Piece falls in both category. I finished Enies Lobby Arc few months back and believe me as much as I like water 7(which is previous Arc and build-up for ennies lobby), ennies lobby nothing but fights and asspulls. Literally 4 asspulls in one Arc 🗿 and there is 20 chapter of Sob story of Robin 💀.Firstly, One Piece would fall into the former category. At the very least, from what I have read so far, its world-building has been better than AoT. What chapter does it begin on? |

| I think it's pretty good. |
| Controversial opinions |
This has been one of the most insufferable and pathetic reply threads I’ve seen in a while, even beyond MAL. Jesus man, this is why everyone looks down on anime fans. |
| Despite it's lack of originality which I do think is one of the flaw (but that doesn't mean originality would make a good storyline either) since JJK is referenced to many Shounen series and apparently martial art fights in live actions too, I do think it's one of the shounens that got substances when it comes to the power system and fight choreography out there and it's pretty interesting that they always grip the character's way of thinking and motivation, the worldbuilding is left to be desired at this moment since this current arc in the anime to be frank is one of the weakest but as the story progresses it gets pretty dark, fleshed out bunch of characters with more techniques/abilities, and maybe less comedic, and I'd say the manga is very text heavy and the visualisation is a hit or miss but in the anime form is way more enjoyable imo. |

| It's pretty good imo. If you like bleach you'll like this show as well |
| As a pesrson who loves both Beserk and AOT, imo jjk is worth it. JJk in season 1 does not have the greatest plot in the world, but its pretty fun. The action is great and dark, the characters are not that cliche and very likeable. The mc also does not have a normal shonen goal. Its not a masterpiece but a very fun anime and probably the most "fresh" normal shonen. Also I heard the next arc is supposed to a masterpiece in the manga. |
