Jujutsu kaisen is making it big rn but I still have doubts it will surpass demon slayer. I probably wouldn't call demon slayer overrated if there wasn't so many people acting like it was the second coming of Jesus Christ. It is an 8/10 first season but holy shit people can't get enough of it. I think jujutsu kaisen is kinda overrated, can't say for sure yet though. I gotta wait for the show to end to see that...

Surpass in term of what?? if in terms of rating I believe Jujutsu Kaisen has a pretty good chance, but popularity will be as hype as Demon Slayer i doubt, except if eps 19 of Jujutsu Kaisen can be as good as Demon slayer XD

Really? I wouldn't say so considering demon slayer had a pretty good pacing and proper sequencing compared to JJK. Demon slayer set the standards for animation too.

JJK has its perks no doubt and animation wise it's up to the mark and the recent episodes had really good animation but I don't see the story progressing much and there so little expansion in plot. We are 18 episodes in and not much is revealed about Sukuna. We are yet to discover the main story. Plus it kinda sorta feels similar to Naruto. (Try to draw parallels please)

I wouldn't say surpassed, maybe equal. Look at the eyes.

JJK is at its top animation phase rn. We are about to see the beauty of its animation. The tournament arc really personified its standards. The Maki fight was especially outstanding. Demon slayer has many such moments.

Story wise JJK can't even be compared to Demon Slayer. Demon Slayer managed to establish the main plot as well as dive into the crux of the story while JJK is still on the outskirts of the main story (tbn: we are 18 episodes in already). Although the plot has been somewhat established, they are nowhere to were they started. We are yet getting introduced to new characters and their abilities so I wouldn't say JJK has an upper hand story wise.

Both are great anime and 10/10 entertainment wise.

both are extremely entertaining but i would say JJK has far surpassed Kimetsu where the manga is at now. the reason for the overall slower pace is because JJK is a far longer running shounen. It is going to be at least 350-400 chapters in length compared to Kimetsu's barely 200+ chapters

Alright. Is that supposed to mean JJK is better story wise? However amount of chapters you are in doesn't mean you drift away from the main story. At least give us some info or a tease about it? I really don't wanna criticize JJK but somethings are just staring at your face that it is impossible to avoid them.

In terms of history Jujutsu has already surpassed it. Demon Slayer is very overrated. Jujutsu is good, not the best, but it is good. Demon Slayer is an overrated average shonen for its animation and anime chapter 19.

Demon Slayer for sure... was overrated. Jujutsu Kaisen won't live up to Demon Slayers level of hype like others said but definitely has potential to be better (only seen up to ep 13).

it's treated like it was the second coming of jesus christ because of the manga, the sales of demon slayer straight out being more than the whole top 10 manga sales of 2020 is no laughing matter.


just based around that, and from what i've seen from jujutsu kaisen manga, it tried very hard but will NOT surpass demon slayer manga at any point.

in terms of anime, the current jujutsu kaisen anime content we have does beat the current demon slayer anime content imo (not counting the movie), but when they're both up to the current manga point it won't even be a challenge for demon slayer to beat it.

It really only has a chance of passing it in MAL score, most other things are purely subjective other than hype, which we'll more than likely never see a series blow up as hard as DS.

This is basically the same situation back when KnY was being compared to MHA and everyone is being toxic.

JJK fanboys literally becoming the second coming of MHA toxicness if this continues.

Imagine comparing series while being completely unbias to the other series you're comparing to.

I guess. JJKs plot is expanding and I'm sure we'll get to the crux of the story soon enough. This doesn't imply that it's bad obviously. I'm enjoying this arc pretty much. Just that every anime has its flaws and this is a notable one that's all. It nowhere hinders with the enjoyment of the anime.

welp, being toxic is an overstatement, but still, belittling another series just to promote the other is a sign of becoming toxic.

Also, there are series where you can't just look at it with same eyes before. Most people btw, not all. Like, Rurouni Kenshin's author being a pedophile, or ACT-Age manga writer getting jailed, etch. These series will either make me sad for the series (ACT Age) or making me ask "why do this?" (Rurouni).

I’ve never watched/read , It’s selling pretty well and I have heard good things about the anime , But it’s doubtful whether it will reach Demon Slayer in popularity. It’s not that people treat it as the 2nd coming of Christ , But it’s an enjoyable , simple story that can appeal a lot of people and it’s the closest shounen of the new gen to the Big 3 in terms of manga sales

Using CGI is not necessarily a negative point for an anime, if anything its effective production in the case of demon slayer since it adds a lot of environmental detail without actually being very noticeable.

Yeah but point here is, why does that make JJK's animation better than demon slayers? They achieved roughly the same stylistic qualities and fluid animation, does it matter one of them used CGI partially to achieve it? The end result is the same.

JJK did cause a big controversy, I did like it at first but now I have mixed feelings about it. I don't really get the humor anymore, it is getting annoying for me. I am sure some can agree.
Demon slayer was weak in terms of plot and had many average shonen troups but I did enjoy it so I do prefer it over JJk.
Overall Jujutsu kaisen does stand a chance against demon slayer but it will take time to reach the heights of popularity that KNY did.

That's not what I said.
I literally said that "belittling" is what toxic.

There are better ways to say that you prefer the series to the other.
Like, "Brand X is better than Brand Y."
"Both are good but Brand X is just on another level."
"There are some moments in Brand Y that I didn't find as good, so Brand X is better for me."
"Brand X is better than Brand Y but there are some aspects in Brand Y that are better for me."
etch.

Instead, we have all these people saying that the other one is "overrated" like they get paid everytime they said it. I just don't get it, bandwagoning on something to be "the cool guy".

Popularity? No, JJK is the biggest shonen in japan next to One Piece.
Sales? No, Kimetsu sells even more than OP.
Ratings? No, Kimetsu is pretty noob-friendly and people love seeing hype.
Production? No, Kimetsu have amazing budget for everything.

So, unless you are talking about a very specific aspect, Kimetsu beats any shonen in terms of profit.

Neither of the two programs are particular or bring something new to the industry, although I don't see it as a bad thing. I think Demon Slayer has a better chance of beating Jujutsu Kaisen, just because Demon Slayer has a better production and a less risky story.

It's funny that people say that the best of Jujutsu Kaisen were the first chapters, when it seems the opposite to me. From chapter 10 they began to add more substance.

JJk story is much better than DS and once S2 comes and adapt the upcoming arcs it will explode even more.

Demon Slayer is fine for what it is, but the story is just extremely basic and straightforward, is just about killing Muzan but first you have to kill his 12 elite demons. Is fighting Demon after demon with barely anything else in between to enrich the story/world. The story is simply just Boss>>Boss>>Boss>>Boss>>Boss>>Final Boss and thats it, from the very beggining, to the end of the manga.

Meanwhile JJK offer a little more complex story, it goes beyond just collecting the 20 fingers of Sukuna, there is other factions that causes problems, a lot of comspirations, the issues of the Jujutsu world, traditionalists vs progresism, and the world just will keep expanding itself.

Jujutsu Kaisen episode 19 came with movie quality.

But yeah, Demon Slayer is apparently way too popular in Japan, no chance. Internationally is a different matter, tho.

Surpass in term of what?? if in terms of rating I believe Jujutsu Kaisen has a pretty good chance, but popularity will be as hype as Demon Slayer i doubt, except if eps 19 of Jujutsu Kaisen can be as good as Demon slayer XD


Really? I wouldn't say so considering demon slayer had a pretty good pacing and proper sequencing compared to JJK. Demon slayer set the standards for animation too.

JJK has its perks no doubt and animation wise it's up to the mark and the recent episodes had really good animation but I don't see the story progressing much and there so little expansion in plot. We are 18 episodes in and not much is revealed about Sukuna. We are yet to discover the main story. Plus it kinda sorta feels similar to Naruto. (Try to draw parallels please)

I would say that's what makes Sukuna such a good character. Only a few bits and pieces of his identity have been revealed, and his past is kept almost entirely mysterious, but it made him even more appealing to me. It's obvious that he will play a way bigger role in the later and the semi-later parts of the story, so season 2 is where they'll probably properly delve into Sukuna. We just have to wait. JJK has yet to reach its true potential.

From an objective stand point JJK is hitting the marks as it sells 5mil + copies of manga, it is one of the most watched shows on different streaming sites and in general is well received.

It will likely not match the cultural phenomenon Kny became in Japan but it is sure to reach the same or even greater commercial succes, especially in the West as seen by this chat.

Personally I prefer Kny but I understand the appeal of JKK and it is no overstatement to say that it will be THE shonen series for the years to come.
