| That was a good fight the animation is good as always. Next episode is gonna be lit. |
 |
| So if I'm interpreting this correctly, out of all the characters Sakuna has seen thus far, Fushiguro is the only one he cares about? Not Gojou nor Itadori? |

| Man the show really ain't stopping being visually superb. Can't thank Hironori Tanaka enough, hope he comes back again this season or the next. This arc is the one that made me fall in love with the manga. I LOVE Mahito, antagonist whose progression mirrors the MC's ? Sign me up, this why I love Shigaraki from MHA just as much. Also, Nanami's backstory hits weirdly hard, a guy that only cared about making money by making rich people even richer finally accepting his desire to be useful and helping others with small daily actions is so inspiring. First court is a super strong 9/10, direction outside of action scenes could be a tad more refined but othewise it's a beautiful and ambitious adaptation. |
| If Family Guy or any other show throws in a flashback in the middle of something important then it's a piece of "carp". But holy shit, if yet another generic battle shonen does this, it's short of a masterpiece in terms of storytelling and direction /s The animation is pretty good, but it baffles me how much MAPPA recycles previous cutscenes in episodes like this to pad runtime (it's ridiculous that Nanamin somehow has recollection of Gojou's realm expansion despite him not being no where near at that time) Looks like next episode the overused and typical TOURNAMENT ARC will take place... zzz |
| I love nanamis backstory, how I wish to live but more ambitious. |
 just wanna feel wanted by someone other than the police 😫 |
| Goddamn, I was certain Nanami was a deadman walking. I'm glad I was wrong. Slowly I've been catching up on this one, and now I finally have on Christmas. I'll admit, through 13 episodes this series has impressed me. I even got misty eyed during that last section on bullying. I genuinely hope it keeps it up with these last 11 of this first series. |

Darkcommander said: So just to confirm there hasn't been any delays or anything? This arc's ending was well put together and kinda gave me the impression the season was done despite MAL saying they're doing 24 episodes. Edit: Alright, ignore me, completely forgot to watch the end card with what's happening next week, my bad. Ep 14 will air Jan 15. |
| Damn I really thought Nanami was gonna die when they showed the flashback to his life as a salaryman, but really glad he didn't. |

He could care less about Itadori lol It has something to do with whatever Fushiguro was going to do at the end of their fight. I got impression it will be something death related. |

| Omg, 20 DAYS till the next episode of JUJUTSU KAISEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 20 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How I gonna SURVIVE without weekly JUJUTSU KAISEN???? HOW??? Why so late???????????? T-T OMG, MY EMOTIONS ARE NOT UNDER CONTROL RIGHT NOW I feel like we’ve finished a great arc and we’re going to get into an even better one. How is it possible JK not to miss anything?It's HIT AFTER HIT! IT'S A BLAST! I never tought the perfect anime for me would come, but look at this! |
 |
| A great finish to the first cour. Probably sitting at a 9.3/10 right now, with serious potential to reach a 10/10 by the end of the second cour. AOTY easily. |

| Wow Mappa blew my expectations out the water. I saw the sneak peak of the episode earlier, but Mahito's Domain expansion was insane. But it's unfortunate they replaced the narration with the characters actually speaking. There are several scenes I can think of that work best with a third-person narrator. |
| There comes the conclusion of the fight between Yuuji/Nanami and Mahito. We saw the flashback scene of Nanami when he was a jaded businessman. I admit he could fell in love with that baker girl. I was kinda confused on why Mahito would have touched Sukuna for the second time. But it was actually Mahito's Domain Expansion that touched Sukuna's soul (u know if this was a romance/drama anime, this would have a very different meaning). Mahito is now injured and is forced to retreat from the Sorcerers. They were about to chase the shape-shifting curse, but because of his injuries, Yuuji is exhausted and they are forced to let Mahito flee. That concludes the first half of Jujutsu Kaisen. In the Juju Stroll, we see Fushiguro, Nobara and others eating some hot pot. Megumi remembers Yuuji's recipe of the meatballs that they are eating. Aww, they really missed Yuuji, don't worry you'll see him soon. So the second half will involve the Kyoto Jujutsus, and damn it, IT'S GOING TO BE KYOTO v TOKYO TOURNAMENT ARC. Hope the second half keeps the hypeball rolling as we're getting some fresh new cast and the second OP's & ED's of JJK. If the show ends with this episode, I will say it's between 8 to a 9 out of 10. What a very good shounen show and JJK will truly be special to the next couple of years. |

| A great episode. Itadori and Nanami were about to win the fight, but it got stronger during and ended up learning to use an expansion domain, I really thought that Nanami was going to die but Itadori managed to help him even if indirectly. |

| I really liked this episode. Nanami's flashback was short but really enjoyable and I'm glad nothing bad happened to him. 20 days without Jujutsu Kaisen will be painful but hopefully the second cour will be worth the wait |
 |
| Not sure if it's because the episodes feel shorter and shorter, but this week gave me filler energy (although I know they were just finishing the arc from last week). Interesting that we see Sukuna delivering on his word. Also---everyone escaped. Yay(?) |
| The fighting scene is great but, I feel like this episode is just an ok episode. When Nanami past just appear, I thought it was his death flag. luckily he is still alive.... Mahito is still alive too.. No one special die in this episode~ Serve that rich bully boy right~ He can't move his arm and is hurt badly too. Sukuna is so interested toward Fushiguro only? Fushiguro is so lucky then. That ending part, poor Fushiguro and Nobara to still don't know that Itadori is still alive... |
 |
| Fantastic episode, that whole episode was just Sakuga scenes Jesus. As much as I don't wanna wait 3 weeks for the next episode, the animators deserves a break and spend time with their family. Respect to Itadori for doing what needs to be done, killing those transfigured souls. At that point, I think that was the proper death for those poor souls, they were already beyond saving. At least Junpei's death managed to make the school act against bullying, they were too late but this is a good start to avoid the Junpei incident from happening again. I legit thought Nanami was gonna die, they even showed his flashback. Thank God he lives to fight another day, thank you Itadori. Nanami's backstory was fantastic though, I like bakery girl. Juju Stroll was great, can't wait to see Fushiguro and Nobara again. |

| Decent firsr cour storywise but the adaptation was really great. |
 |
| Jujutsu keeps on delivering! Nanami was indeed doomed if it wasn't for Yuuji. What a badass he grew up to be. Now the only thing i can think of, especially after watching that ending scene, is Yuuji's reunion with Fushiguro and Kugisaki! This first half was insanely good, a solid 9/10, hope it will end with a 10/10, i am loving this! |

| :’( RIP Junpei Itadori & his musings on death with that Stand in the Darkness song playing.....great end to 1st cour. Will also miss the absolute bangers of an OP & ED but I’m so excited for the Cö Shu Nie ED! I totally thought Nanami was going to die. I laughed a little when Itadori managed to invade the domain expansion. And damn of course Mahito managed to get away. I also liked Nanami’s backstory & his interaction with the bakery girl was really cute. I think that Itadori has had decent character development and I like how unassuming & kind he is, I hope they delve more into his character next cour. He’s slowly becoming one of my favourites, I really like him!!!! Cute Juju Sanpo. These friends really miss one another. Can’t wait to see them back together again!!!!! Pweenie said: dedeogbe said: Anyone catch Yuji's tears at the very end of the opening? :( I did! Fucking MAPPA putting him dreaming the picnic scene where everyone is friends and him waking up, crying because of Junpei :'( So sad (;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`) |
 ꕤ but i’ll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there — the day we all searched for just one thing ꕤ |
| seems they go all out on this ep animation. but I just realize mappa skipped a little narration that explaining some stuff did they..? |
| Ok ending to an ok arc. The domain expansion looked really cool but it's too bad we didn't really get to see it in action. |
 |
| Nanamin don't play with my heart like that ;_; I really thought he'd die there. Especially with how they threw in the good old death flag of backstory. So Junpei is gone for good huh, really sad how it took his death (or I guess disappearance in their eyes) for his bullies to get their punishment :( |
 |
| What a way to finish this cour, This Sakuga was pure eye candy, but the intensity and creativity with the domain expansions is so well executed.You could just tell that MAPPA put so much love and effort into animating this. And a big part of that comes down to how good, fluid and creative the Gege's original work is. Itadori as a protagonist is such a cool blend of inexperience but fearlessness and my unbothered king Nanami got his backstory explained too. Like a lot of people, the only person Sukuna's simping for is Megumi Lmaoo!!, The wait is going to be worth it but I'm gonna miss the OP and ED. Itadori looks like he's crying too , So glad that this show is doing so well and really excited for it to continue exploding with the second cour |
  |
| Sakuna being done with Mahito as THE highlight !!! And welcome back Gojo !!!!!! |
| Looks like a tournament arc is starting next episode. Can't wait. Also, is that emo guy actually dead? |
| MAPPA delivered crying Yuuji who woke up from his illusions and now I'm sobbing too. Dammit, MAPPA... MAPPA also showed us snippets of Kyoto folks' voice actors' job on Twitter, I'm so-so excited to see them! They're pretty good and lovable characters.  |
