Ah interesting, we've reached the Death Painting arc featuring mysterious deaths and also the possible involvement of a girl named Tsumiki.

Interesting episode imo since they made the case look sound so eerie. Oh and having Mahito reappear again made the episode creepier too. What a sicko. I like how the episode added some moments of humor between the cast. They have such amusing chemistry in this show LOL. Pretty interesting episode.

According to Executive Producer Park Seong Hoo, the last 3 episode series composition will take a stance of movie. That's why these three are going to be little different from the previous ones, since it gives a little bit of horror and thriller vibe unlike shonen-like vibes they've given so far. For me, today's episode was a success and it never failed me even one moment.

Also, the background music has gotten much better this episode. Probably think it's because it has gotten more dramatic scenes than the fighting episodes, and I think it made me focus to the context and the scenes better. Especially the scene where Fushiguro talks to Ijichi and others was top notch. Even the art was slightly improved than the previous episodes, which I think this ep was one of the best animated episodes that doesn't have fighting involved. Wonder how you feel about it.

Can't believe we only have 2 more episodes left. Oh no, how am I gonna live if JJK is over.

Last will be new best girl Nitta

Even if I'm alone, I'll go, even if I want to die.
I can hear your voice, saying I shouldn't die.
Even if it's difficult, even if I cry from loneliness
I can feel warmth from deep inside my heart.

Going round-and-round and flowing, time is ever-changing.
I can't remember what happened anymore, but
If I try and close my eyes, I can hear someone's laughing voice
For some reason, now, that is My Most Precious Treasure.

Start of the best arc of season 1 (Origin of Obedience/Death Painting) which will only last 3 episodes total. This episode only adapted 2 chapters meaning that we’re most likely ending this season with chapter 63. I expect a really good end to this season considering this is Gege’s favorite arc. Bless us MAPPA.

Good setup episode for the upcoming craziness involving our trio. Glad we are getting the eerie darker themes back in JJK.

I cannot believe that MAPPA teased Choso with the character design release a few days ago but didn’t actually show him in this episode or the preview for next week’s episode. I want to see him :(

Next week is going to be so hype.

Bit more of fushi's background is nice, the comedy was also on point with the jabs this episode! Seems like after that breather episode we're going right back to action but I'm not complaining!

well we won't see him until
so that's like episode 23 or 24-ish. I'm excited to see him as well. He's my favorite villain of JJK xD

we know the middle one is Kechizu. i wonder if there's a way to determine Choso and Eso from the remaining two...

The start to a new arc: the Origin of Obedience/Death Painting

And another new character: assistant Nitta Akari. Similar to the "Small Fry and Reverse Retribution" arc with Junpei and the murdered students, Megumi gets the spotlight in this arc for his past relations. HEH Yuuji and Nobara sure had fun teasing Megumi for all the shit he went through. Problem children are these delinquents, though not as bad as Megumi.

For all this while, little is revealed about Megumi, other than we got someone else: his older sister Tsumiki, who's involved in this Yasohachi Bridge happening as well. But no matter what, Megumi always has Yuuji and Nobara supporting him, which is great.

Hype for the final stretch of the season for this arc.

It will be wrapped up this season. 2 chapters adapted this episode, 3.5 chapters for episode 23 and 3.5 chapters for episode 24. Technically chapter 64 is part of this arc but chapter 63 is a good cutoff point for season 1.

A new arc has started. Well animated stuff from MAPPA even if there was no action involved. things have gotten more dramatic. Fushiguro's backstory was nice as well. The things are gonna turn up next episode since only 2 episodes have left in this season. Can't wait for the next week.

Origin of obedience finally here, I don’t remember particularly being in love with this arc, but we know MAPPA have the ability to make even the most average of arcs into something special, so I’m hype. The OST and horror film vibes were nice today. Can’t wait to see Choso.

Based on pacing looks like chapter 63 will be where we end for the season.

Got to learn a bit of Fushiguro which is nice. Was he the leader of all the delinquents? XD
Now I'm curious to learn more about Tsumiki.

We know shit will go down when Mahito is involved. What a creepy guy.

The bungee jump from the bridge reminds me of GTO.

If the next 2 episodes will be just as good then this will be easily the best arc this season.

Now this is more like it. Don't get me wrong, I liked the tournament arc we got with its spectacle and exploration of secondary characters, but it felt like more of a routine shounen then I was expecting coming off the first cour. This mystery/horror angle is more my thing, and this episode did a great job of building up this new case along with exploring Fushigoro more. Plus it's nice seeing the main trio, you know, be a main trio since we haven't had many opportunities for that this season due to the nature of the plot.

Nice buildup episode for the final arc of the season. It looks like Fushiguro will be the main character of this arc so that's nice that we'll get more development for him and see him get more time in the spotlight.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

One of my favourite arcs!! The music and direction of this episode was so well done. I really love the change in the colour palette with the mood.

The coming sequences will really make the main trio even more lovable.

This episode was kinda scatterbrained with the investigation of the bridge curse, the releasing of a special grade, and learning more about Fushiguro’s past/familial relations.

Wasn’t bad, but definitely not as focused as the previous episodes. The comedy between the trio was at its best in this episode which helped.

So they will fight 2 special grades next episode? Is this trio really that powerful?

I really love this anime. i can't believe it's ending in two weeks... but i can finally start the manga after this.

also the fact that i always thought megumi's siter, tsumiki was dead long ago.. so she was just bedridden...pls jjk, don't let anything happen to his sister... pls

anyway is this finally the long awaited megumi arc i wanted??

btw i really love seeing these three together. nobara and yuji making "fun" of megumi and megumi hitting yuji was maybe the best moments in this episode

I do recommend the manga if you dont mind spoiling yourself before season 2. I was hesitant at first but the use of panels and fight choreography is really top tier in JJK and the following arcs only get better and better.

I loved how they gave Fushiguro a bit of a backstory. I hope they continue with their serious plots with comical relief from the characters cause that is what I enjoy most from the show. Mahito is always up to no good.

The final arc of the season kicked off and it's already pretty interesting with Fushiguro in the spotlight, with a curse that involves his sister. Really getting a creepy vibe from this episode and the build up is great.

Honestly, I have missed this trio together. I love how Kugisaki fits in perfectly with the team and I love how in sync she is with Itadori on teasing Fushiguro and behaviour in general. The banter was phenomenal, Fushiguro retaliating as well was funny to see. These guys became one of my favorite trio's for sure!

As someone said it, the episodes quality is easily on par with movies. I really loved how dark it felt all over even before the reveal.

Music at the end also got cranked to 15. I can't wait for full OST to drop, this genuinely got some of the best OST's that I've heard in anime overall.

I really loved this episode. I was waiting to see more of Fushiguro and learn about his backstory, plus I think he's intriguing. I'm now very hyped for next week's episode. In previous arcs/episodes, they had to be apart and work on their own, but I enjoy when all three of them are together and helping each other out. They make a really nice team and I'm here for it

Starting to dig into Fushiguro's background now as we take a peek into his personal life! So cool how Yuuji & Nobara are 100% there for him without intruding into something that is obviously quite painful for him - friendship goals!

I found it hilarious how all the delinquents are scared of Fushi since he's so reserved and calm 😄
