Look I love the animation in season 2 of jjk and I’m not saying this episode was animated poorly but it was definitely the worse episode animation wise of season 2

@SuntProstMare I mean the grasshoper fight at the start of shibuya was bad but the rest of that episode was good.

and like I said this episode was not bad at all the animation was still amazing but is just worse them some of the episodes that came before it

Both this and the previous episodes were the best looking ones in the entire series so far.

The pressure and the tight deadlines imposed on the animators are now felt and the consequences are before ours eyes and if Mappa does not change its approach, this season of JKK will become the biggest disappointment of the history of modern animation when this anime is supposed yo be at its peak.

It was really good but quite sloppy. Kept thinking “ahhh this could have been even better given time.” If it was cleaned up and smoothed out would’ve been one of if not the best anime episode of all time. I can’t understand MAPPA executives at all. I would’ve bought all of the blu-rays if they took care of this series the way it deserves…

Do people really believe this show looks better than Frieren or Shangri-La Frontier?

@SuntProstMare i literally said it wasn't bad. and yes i really did appreciate the use of grey lighting at the start of the episode and vibrant red's during sakuna's domain expansion but that's art styling not animation. purely animation wise this episode was worse then at least the last 3 but still amazing and yes i think most people who are even on the fence about mappa at least appreciate their work.

it seems you have something against isekai/fantasy and while yes there are ALOT of poorly animated ones there are some good ones like mushokutensei and eminence in shadow and ones with unique art styles like the recently released My Daughter Left the Nest and Returned an S-Rank Adventurer which has a children's fantasy book art style for the backgrounds and I don't think Sousou no Frieren even needs defending.

"you are such dumb ppl" I don't appreciate the insult but i'm gonna ignore it because the bad grammar kind funny ngl

you are One of those that also complaineed when Ep 16 was released, and you seen to not understand that what i asked you Is to tell me and anime that have such a godly animation, but you ignored It, instead you focused on my grammar without putting some thoughts, because not everyone Is 💯 english. and tell me a scene in the previous 3 episodes that have such a good fight Dynamic, animation, and a unique artstyle. and i am not complaining about isekai, i like them, but you Need to be real, 80% of isekai are trash.
and yes, there are some exceptions, like in every single thing in Life, so you mention MT or Eminence in the Shadow are exceptions, you cant use them as a model, because not every isekai are like that.

jjk 🍖 riders are definitely going over the top this time to sugar coat the animation, my thoughts are that the animation was decent but not good enough as compared to last few episodes or the last season which came almost 3 years ago

Episode 17 of Season 2 is likely to go down in animation history. I don’t understand how the team was able to pull off such a masterclass of animation under such challenging conditions. That said, this was absolutely incredible. So many different styles, dozens of jaw-dropping scenes in just 20 minutes. Call me a dickrider if you want. I don’t care.

My only complaint is about some of the inconsistent corrections and the excessive zooming into some drawings, making them look blurry (I believe these were mostly just unfortunate results of the tight schedule). On the other hand, they will most likely be fixed in the Blu-ray release in a few months (along with the removal of dimming and ghosting).

This segment is for people complaining about this episode:
I understand if you don’t like this type of animation, with many scenes being less detailed or less consistent with the original character designs. But that in no way makes it “poorly animated”. Animators should be given the freedom to express themselves and not be too restrained. Sure, it might create some visual whiplash when there is a noticeable difference between two shots, but that doesn’t mean it’s bad animation or poorly drawn. It’s a unique attribute of the animator and it can help them make the scene flow better, or be easier and faster to animate. Some shows may not be fit for this style, but in my eyes, Jujutsu Kaisen is.
You are free to dislike it, but don’t act like only your opinion matters and, if properly explained, respect others’ opinions.

To wrap this up, what a masterpiece of an episode. Absolute cinema. If you enjoyed this episode, I highly encourage you to go thank the directors/animators on social media instead of MAPPA itself. (The directors being: Hakuyu Go, Itsuki Tsuchigami AKA Miso and Harumi Yamazaki, correct me if I’m wrong).

bruh stop using the word "objectively". that guy literally said "my thoughts are", which meant he is just stating his opinion. Whereas you, you are using the word "obejectively", when in this sense, you are also giving a "subjective" opinion. Do you understand this? just stfu if u don't know what that word really means. nothing is objective, especially when it comes to animation when ppl can choose to like or dislike something.
