And they try to do this for EVERY character, even for the villains who, you know, have slaughtered hundreds, potentially thousands. The comedy can basically be boiled down to a character acting either overly idiotic or incredibly loud/annoying during random moments. And what the heck were those after credits scenes? I dunno, I just found them to be very.odd. The timing is just consistently terrible. This anime tries to be serious and has a lot of dark moments, but then immediately follows with characters making stupid faces at each other and saying dumb things. I mean for one, it's generally out of place. Yet shounen always seem to fail for me when it comes to the humor. I'm mean, I laugh at boob jokes and panty shots, that should tell you what kind of person I am. Ok, so I'm not that hard to please in this department. Comedy comes in all shapes and forms, so everyone has their own preference.the comedy in Jujutsu Kaisen wasn't my preference. I figured I'd get this out of the way since its the most subjective flaw on the list. The sheer power of representing ALL of his fingers would embed this review with massive cursed energy that even I couldn't control- Ok, fine, it's actually because I couldn't think of 10 more things and it would make this review drag on anyway. Probably no nutrients left in those old things.Īh, so you're wondering why I'm going with 10 fingers when Sukuna has 20 overall? Heh. I mean, eating a centuries old finger? Bleh. And then 5 departments that were a triumphant success in my eyes, represented as 5 of Sukuna's fingers that were eaten by Itadori.which probably gave him some digestion issues, poor guy. This review will go over 5 areas that I believe the anime handled poorly, represented as 5 of Sukuna's, the king of curses himself, cursed fingers.

So therefore, I'm gonna do things a little differently. But who's to say that Jujutsu doesn't have a bit of both? While I find there to be several glaring issues with the anime, it also has many great aspects. I guess I'm taking a lesson out of protagonist Itadori's book.

But here's the age old question: Does fantastic animation trump average writing?īlunt. And I can say with certainty that this is primarily because of Studio Mappa's admirable dedication to making this show, particularly the fight scenes, look breathtakingly good. Jujutsu Kaisen is the latest shounen to gain a surge of popularity and get invited to join the mainstream table of the true anime titans, probably taking a seat right next to Demon Slayer.
