Review of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2

*** This review contains spoilers *** Review in English and Spanish – Below is the same review in Spanish Well, the second season of Jujutsu Kaisen is divided into two arcs: Hidden Inventory and the Shibuya arc. I read these two arcs in the manga years ago, and they are among my favorites in all of JJK. In general, they are some of my favorite arcs. When they announced this season, it was what I was looking forward to the most out of all the anime. I'm going to comment, analyze, share my opinions, and several other things that I'm not sure if I can mentionabout what I thought of this entire season or, better said, this masterpiece of a season

Hidden inventory: I must say that there was a change of director from the first season to the second. The shift in direction by Gosso (it's the abbreviated form, named Goshozono, Shouta) is quite noticeable to me. Personally, I love the direction not only in this mini-arc but throughout the entire season; it literally feels like a different series, giving me vibes of Chainsaw Man. Perhaps it's just me thinking this, but well, idk. This director is one of my favorites. I should also mention that he had prior experience working on Jujutsu Kaisen (JJK), as he was the storyboard artist for episode 17 and directed some episodes in the first season, which were animated quite well. He was also involved in episode 8 of Chainsaw Man, episode 4 of Mob Psycho, the famous episode 21 of Ousama Ranking, practically being part of the best episodes, at least technically, of each series. But well, enough about Gosso; let's get back to the arc.
Both the opening and ending song of this mini-arc are amazing. The ending, in particular, complements the arc well, slow yet melancholic, reflecting Gojo's past with his only friend who left due to his ideals. I love it; it gives me those vibes. The animation is insane, to be honest. I love how well the 2006 setting fits. It's simplistic, silly, and charming, especially in funny moments. Beyond that, the animation is top-notch. The fight in the second episode with a random masked character vs. Gojo has fantastic choreography that I adore. The soundtrack, which I love, is very solid

Chapter three, aside from what I mentioned above about the direction that didn't make sense in this episode, in every good sense, what it did at the end with inserting the ending, the voice actors, BROTHER, the voice actors did an amazing job with the girl crying, reaching out to cut with the shot and cut with the music and all. It was incredible—the music, the shots of the aquarium, the shots of them strolling through an entire park with flowers. Those backgrounds, GOD, how I loved everything about this chapter. Everything about Gosso is not making sense, to be honest, I never doubted. The soundtrack is being completely outdone by that of the first season, at least in these early chapters and as far as I know, only 1 of the 3 composers from the previous season is part of this season. Incredible, the work of these three individuals. At the beginning of the chapter, Gojo resolves an entire plot that seemed like it was going to develop further but in the end, NO, BAM, he takes it, and we already rescued the maid. Well, what I mentioned above about the backgrounds, bodyguards arrive at Tensen's lair to deliver Riko, and my FATHER Touji appears—WHAT A FIGHT, MY GOD, WHAT INTENSITY, WHAT ANIMATION, GOSSO CINEMA. Those eyes Gojo has, I love them, and all the blood when he's almost dead. Definition of cinema

Chapter 4 was also incredible, but not quite like the third one. The third is something, as I mentioned above in the text. At this point in the season, you realize it has a completely different style, another vibe that I love. I liked this episode in terms of the Gojo vs. Touji fight. The fight showcases the purple with a beautiful soundtrack as all of this unfolds. In the overall episode, Gojo seems quite lost in his gaze—well-directed in every aspect. I love how he's in the sky, as if he's so far above Touji... and since we're talking about Touji.

I firmly believe that Touji also carried a very heavy psychological burden. He had been mistreated and rejected his entire life by his family, constantly treated as if he were worthless. Meeting Gojo made him feel miserable about himself because Satoru was a prodigy, born with luck, gifts, and a very powerful technique. Everyone loved Gojo; he didn't need to prove what he was capable of, unlike Touji, who constantly struggled for approval, both from himself and others. Gojo was what he would have wished for himself because he was constantly referenced as the strongest sorcerer. For Touji, eliminating Gojo mentally lifted the burden that had plagued him his entire life, proving to himself and others that he was capable of more. Touji's mistake strengthened Gojo, and the sadness Touji had to carry remained with him alone.

What a character Touji is, one of my favorite characters in Jujutsu Kaisen, and he appears only briefly, but when he does, he stands out. He was rejected by the Zenin clan for not having cursed energy. Despite being recognized by the clan as a formidable fighter (and killer), they still expelled him out of fear and concerns for the clan's prestige, among other things. In the end, he became the strongest human without cursed energy and with immense courage. I love that later, after leaving the clan, he drops the Zenin surname and takes on his wife Fushiguro's name. He starts working as an assassin and earns the nickname 'the sorcerer killer,' a title he imposes.
In addition to everything I mentioned, he was a brilliant person in every sense, not only in skill, strength, but also in intelligence. The plan he devised to kill Gojo, the time limit for the reward to exhaust him, the meticulous planning and strategy to defeat him and catch him off guard once the time was up, and then devising the entire plan to kill Rika seem brilliant to me. What I like the most is that he makes Gojo, possibly the most overpowered character in the entire anime, look like a child. If Touji hadn't explained the entire plan, Gojo wouldn't have even realized it, especially when he revealed the reward and all that. What a character.

Excellent character development and brilliant writing for what he did to defeat Gojo. The way he killed Rika without a word, without anything, appearing from the shadows to do his job, THAT'S HOW IT'S DONE. Even hesitating to kill Geto so he wouldn't release the curse that scared him a bit because he didn't know what it would do. Impeccable character.

Well, since we've deviated quite a bit, let me share my favorite characters from this season and in general: Touji, Gojo, Nanami, Itadori, Maki (although she's a bit for what happens later, but Maki has to be there), and I'd include Sukuna too; I like the presence he commands, but I feel like there's something missing for him. That would be them, basically. I'd love to continue with each of the following characters, but I feel like I've gone too off-topic, and let's continue where we were, besides, each of them will have their moment.

Last chapter of the mini-arc: The episode begins, and it's been a year since the fight in episode 4. Gojo is now the strongest, and Geto is already questioning everything after so much time alone and so many curses arising from everything that happened. It seems like there's a plague, and he wonders what the point of all this is if everyone ultimately dies. Then a waifu appears and tells him two ways humans can't detect curses: one, if humanity controls cursed energy, and two, if they are like Touji. I understand...

Well, the episode concludes with spectacular direction, reminiscent of the manga that was pure text with characters talking all the time. Gosso plays with the direction, engaging all the senses with applause, transitions in the rain, funny shots, and fluid animation. The episode has excellent direction, a great OST, and a nice contrast. Geto switches sides, conflicting with Gojo's ideology, and in the middle of the street, he leaves us with an iconic quote:

'Are you the strongest because you're Satoru Gojo, or are you Satoru Gojo because you're the strongest?'

I really liked the episode, and this mini-arc delving into Gojo's past is spectacular. Episode 3 remains my favorite throughout the arc because of its nonsensical brilliance, and while Episode 4 is also excellent, it doesn't quite reach the level of Episode 3.

The Shibuya Incident: That one-month hiatus felt eternal, but it returned with THE arc. Well, Chapter six starts with the trio protagonists being recommended for first-grade sorcerers, basically those who face strong curses. But getting recommended is not enough to become a first-grade sorcerer; their actions in the mission also matter for the promotion. The rest of the chapter revolves around the childhood friend who had feelings for Itadori but doesn't express them. By the way, I thought this character was introduced for a reason or would become more relevant, maybe not in this arc but later on. Gege put her there to fill in, perhaps to explore a bit of Itadori's past? I don't know, quite irrelevant, but anyway.

The other half of the chapter suggests there's a mole, which turns out not to be a mole, revealed later on. It's Mechamaru, who has information about Shibuya and wants to take it to Gojo. However, he can't because Geto and Mahito don't need him anymore, leading to a fight. The animation and direction, Gosso cinema, remain solid at this point. There's a new opening that I loved from the first moment I heard it, and the ending fits the arc perfectly, although I have to say I liked it more towards the end, but I didn't dislike it initially.

The next two chapters were more or less okay. Well, Chapter 7 was more introductory, featuring the Mechamaru vs. Mahito fight, which was very well animated. I think they added a bit to the animation, as I didn't remember the fight being so long in the manga. Anyway, I'm not complaining because the fight was well animated with references to other anime and notable shots. The rest of the chapter involves a curtain set up in Shibuya to trap people, and they divide into various groups to enter the curtain. Gojo enters Shibuya alone in this chapter. He came out like a machine. As I mentioned earlier, this chapter was very introductory, and the next one was too weak. I'd say it's the worst of the entire Shibuya arc because it basically boils down to the fight with that grasshopper, which Gege thought was a good idea to explain the whole mating process and other things. I was falling asleep, but Gojo saved it by removing his eye bandages and giving them a look that says I'm going to mess you up. I also liked how they restrain Gojo and how all the blood flows with Choso's power, but nothing more. Two chapters well-adapted because it follows the manga exactly, but these chapters weren't Mappa's fault, it was Gege's

Chapter 9 and 10: These two chapters were very good, unlike the other two I mentioned. They were much better in terms of everything: animation, direction, OST. The piano soundtrack while Gojo takes down all the curses in the middle of the crowd was impeccable. The way he uses the Domain Expansion for 0.2 seconds, the time normal people can endure, taking down all the curses (which gave us a good meme, by the way). When they seal Gojo, they replicated very well what happened in the manga and even improved it with the silence and the entire plan. The soundtrack, especially the piano when Gojo is sealed, completely immobile, and it's revealed that it's not Geto who sees, with some notable shots, was impeccable. It was a very wise decision by Gege to seal him because I, and many people I know, were wondering what they were going to do with Gojo. He's the strongest person, but how was Gege going to handle it? Honestly, he silenced me and wrote it very well. This is just the beginning of the arc, and it's already the best.

After all this, there is a HUGE amount of text, thankfully saved by Gosso's direction. But it's important text, not useless like that grasshopper, and a lot of preparation for everything that's going to happen. I have to say, when Itadori kills the curses, they looked a bit odd, but I'm not complaining; they're just randoms (although the animation of the entire arm was very fluid, I'm not complaining about the animation here). And then, THE character Nanami appeared, another of my favorite characters in JJK.

Since I talked about Touji, it's time to say a few words about Nanami. He embodies everything that's right in a character for me—charismatic, crucial to the plot, and nothing that happens during the development of his story feels forced. His design is fantastic, and his personality is just THE CHARACTER. I love his introduction in the first season, how he despises working overtime, and imposes it as a ritual, a restriction that makes him weaker during regular working hours. But when he works overtime, he unleashes all his power. This is brilliant because if the fight takes a long time, it's genuinely challenging for him, and the longer it goes on, the better for him—a plus for quickly dispatching any curse that proves difficult. Another thing I like about the character is that he left the world of sorcery for the business world but realized it didn't fulfill him. It wasn't enough; something was missing. He discovered that he actually liked being a sorcerer. Well, objectively, he thought it was a crappy job, but it made him happy to help people. I like that he thinks the job is bad but continues to do it anyway because it gives him a sense of fulfillment. I'll continue talking about Nanami later; I think he's an amazing character, and I love how his story ends.

The next three episodes are something else. The weakest is episode 11 because the direction here failed me; it felt a bit odd. While some moments highlighted beautifully drawn frames, in others, you couldn't understand where the punches were directed, and the impact was barely felt. The fight itself was too weak, more due to direction than animation. The manga handles this fight much better, but I'm not too bothered. Touji is revived, and personally, I HATE character revivals, but Gege gives it a certain sense here since they can only revive someone without cursed energy due to the power of that grandma. It's well-written, and besides, he appears quite rarely, so I won't complain too much. Maki and Nobara also appear, fighting against the sword guy (can't remember his name, but I've wanted him dead since this episode). Fortunately, Nanami appears to purify him, and during every punch, Nanami is beautifully drawn. Meanwhile, on the other end, Itadori vs. Choso is happening. I love Choso's design, and I must say he's a character with a lot of potential in the future. The fight itself is an audio/visual delight from start to finish, and some consider it one of their favorite episodes. I'm not sure if it's my favorite because there are so many good ones in this arc, but it's a 10/10 for this episode in every technical aspect (OST, animation, direction). The color palette in this fight is great, especially when they enter the bathrooms. It lights up red for Itadori and blue for Choso, and the lighting is impeccable. Something I forgot to mention, and this episode reminded me of it, is that the setting plays a very fundamental role not only in this fight (like how the signs fall or when they explain something with a background warning in Shibuya, the lighting as everything gradually dims) but also in several others. In the previous Nanami fight, they played with the setting using electricity, and in the fight with Gojo, when he took down Hanami and finished him, there was a momentary power outage. I like these little details.

Chapter 14: The second-worst chapter for me, by far and with a significant difference. I love the beach fight and everything in the manga; you can clearly see the problems Mappa is having with the staff that left halfway and the contract they made their animators sign to prevent them from disclosing their working conditions. This seems horrible on Mappa's part and unnecessary because they were doing well! The episode is watchable, but everything was quite mediocre—the animation with too much contrast, excessive light, and poorly animated creatures. The direction was also quite odd. The standout here is the soundtrack, always solid; it was well done, and the beginning of the episode was not bad until the opening. From the opening onwards, it's horrible. In the manga, the octopus they fight against is imposing, but in the anime, it looks like a joke. Clarification note: The episode director posted tweets about the terrible working conditions, so the blame for this is 100% on Mappa for rushing everything and not giving the animators and directors enough time. I don't blame them; I'm perfectly aware that they are capable of creating absolute art, but those in charge above them don't want that. They want fast food, episodes to come out, and money. How sad.

Chapter 15: Now, this is much better, quite good. Well, Touji appears, which is fine, he's my favorite character, but it's quite a surprise for him to show up in the middle of what Megumin opens, haha. I prefer his entrance as a surprise more in the manga, but oh well. Touji's fight against the octopus has good choreography, he takes it down easily, and then sends Megumin flying. After that, Jogo appears and SUPPOSEDLY kills everyone, then goes to give Itadori the fingers to awaken Sukuna. How he rips off Jogo's arm with that look he gives and then killing the other two and challenging Jogo was well done. The episode was very good, and in terms of animation/direction, it delivered much better, especially in Touji's fight, very few downsides compared to the previous one. Well done, keep it up; I hope it continues this way.

Chapter 16: This chapter focuses on two fights: Touji vs. Fushiguro and Jogo vs. Sukuna. I loved both in terms of everything—the fight choreography, animation, direction. The animation's fluidity is well achieved in this chapter. There are scenes in the anime that are much better than in the manga, for example, when Megumi summons all the rabbits and Touji takes them down in one go. Throughout the fight, Touji was significantly superior to Megumin, and the most important part of this fight is that he dies. Now, the best character in JJK, Touji, dies in a remarkable way—asking for Megumi's last name. The way Touji's eyes light up and he smiles upon realizing that his son is not a Zenin, the clan that treated him so badly, was tremendous. That scene is sublime.

"No Zenin, huh? I'm glad."
The mere existence of Megumi, the greatest blessing of his life, allowed him to die in peace. God, this chapter is one of my favorites.

The fight against Jogo, well... I'm not sure if I can call it a fight since Sukuna was toying with him the whole time. The setting, always present (as mentioned above), and in this fight even more so, playing a very important role. The anime portrays and shows you better than the manga how everything is absolutely destroyed during the fight, providing details that I loved. For example, they show the temperature gauge just after the attack on the building, and after this, Sukuna grabs two buildings and throws them at Jogo for him to split in half, so to speak. The setting was very present in this chapter, and I wanted to emphasize this. I love it, and it maintains the fluidity I mentioned above in animation, like how Sukuna cuts through buildings, throws Jogo around as if he's playing, quite literally. And there's more because Jogo throws a freaking METEOR, causing half the city to explode. Before he makes the city explode, Sukuna appears in front of those random people and literally says not to move until he says so. The tension there is tremendous, Sukuna literally playing with everyone, and the others are scared out of their minds. The entire choreography of the fight was fantastic, and seeing Jogo's death with the famous animated arrow adapted like a masterpiece is simply great. What a chapter.

Chapter 17: No, no, no, no, no, why Mappa, WHYYYYYYY THE OPENING, YOU WERE DOING SO WELL. I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE LYRICS, IT DOESN'T FIT. No, I can't believe it, they ruined one of the best moments in Shibuya with the opening????? It literally doesn't fit at all. People commenting about the lyrics, I don't know what, okay, put a phonk metamorphosis theme and tell me 'it works because of this and that.' NO, man, it's completely offbeat, the theme doesn't fit because it's one of the MC's most traumatic moments, and you put a Shakira waka waka theme, and it doesn't fit, do you understand? It would have been much better with a calm background piano, a violin, THE ENDING IN THE BACKGROUND, a calm ost, JJK has tremendous osts, let's not forget, they could have done it easily, OR JUST SILENCE WOULD HAVE FIT MUCH BETTER, god, no, I still can't accept it. Well, aside from this, which was at the end of the episode BUT IT WAS NOT MINOR. The episode itself I liked, haha, yes, it seems like I'm joking, but aside from what I mentioned above, I liked the whole episode because the incident occurs at the end of the episode. I've read that they practically had no time to do it, so I applaud the animators from here. Perfect in terms of the entire technical department. I feel like I repeat myself too much saying that the animation is good, but I think I don't do it enough. The Sukuna vs. Mahoraga fight was incredible. Someone on Twitter mentioned that in one of the buildings that appear so much in the fights, there are measurements of the entire Mappa animation sector, that is, where they were practically working. I like that as a detail.

A detail that I really like in this fight is showing the people taking refuge and hiding. This gives much more impact to the fact that it shows how Sukuna is destroying the entire city and everything he's doing. It's directly showing that he's killing thousands of people, and the worst part is as if he's killing them as a byproduct of the fight, nothing more. This is better in the anime. Besides, in several sequences, you see people dying in the middle of the fight, giving it a nuanced touch. The OST is also excellent, tremendous animation, as I always mention throughout the fight sequence. It reminds me a lot of the second season of Mob Psycho, the episode that is incredibly animated (I think it's episode 5 or around there, but you know which one I mean), and I love that it only reminds me of that episode and I love it. Just applause, applause for the animators for the little time they had and what they achieved. And my father appears in the background, Nanami. I also like the beginning of the fight, how he summons Mahoraga and practically says: well, I summon him, he kills me, but he kills you too, and let's just wreck this creature.

Chapter 18: Well, in this chapter, they learned to use silence throughout (both at the beginning and in some parts with Nanami). Even if it wasn't animated or directed in the best way, I'll touch on that topic. Nanami's death is very well done with the silences, and that soundtrack hits hard in the heart, everything is very well done. Itadori vs Mahito, the fight itself doesn't seem bad at all, to be honest. It has some very good shots, BUT sometimes, the action isn't very clear; you don't know where the hits are going, and it feels a bit strange. Although I liked the fight itself, especially considering the animators had very short delivery deadlines, and not only that but this entire fight is original to Mappa, not in the manga, so I don't complain so much. Towards the end of the chapter, Nobara encounters Mahito and gives him a couple of cuts. Nobara's shots were very well done, and that whole part was very well animated, to be honest. The chapter wasn't that bad; the important thing was Nanami's death, and they portrayed it very well, focused on it.
Arguably, this is the best part of the Jujutsu Kaisen chapter, Nanami fighting while imagining himself on the beach, at peace with himself, to finally give us a warm smile and say goodbye to Itadori... In the manga, Nanami's death is cruel and unexpected. The impact is felt more from Yuji's side. In contrast, the anime gives us a deeper understanding of Nanami's desire, to have his own peace. It's quite nice to get different feelings from the same product.

Chapter 19: I loved this chapter. A quite bold chapter if I have to describe it in some way, as it removes a character from the trio of protagonists right in front of Itadori, who couldn't even process what happened with Nanami, and now this happens to the other. Very good writing in this chapter by Gege. The flashback itself, I feel, is a bit forced, like from the very second it appears, you know what's going to happen, and they try to make you shed a tear with the typical anime cliche of a character about to die and they bring in their childhood friends. Despite sounding like I'm complaining about this, I think the flashback is quite well done, not very bad nor very good, a bit forced as I mentioned, but not unnecessary. Perhaps it felt a bit long to me, but overall, very well executed.
Anyway, I talked about Nobara but didn't mention the beginning of the chapter where Nobara faces a copy of Mahito and Itadori faces the real Mahito. Here, I want to highlight the good animation and choreography in both fights, especially Nobara's. Everything I complained about in the previous chapter, where nothing was clear, was absent in this chapter, and it felt much better. Well done, Mappa, very well animated, and surprisingly, they put a lot of effort into the flashback as well. Good animation and tremendous backgrounds in the flashback. Also, in the fight, there were some amazing shots, like when you see all the nails on the floor as Nobara approaches. The entire sequence is excellent.

Itadori had good exchanges of blows with Mahito that I really liked, and the fight ends with Mahito touching Nobara. They show us the flashback mentioned earlier. The entire sequence of what happens, the climax of everything, the scene, everything feels dark, cold, with a glimpse of all the people Nobara met in the chairs. You see her as a child, and from one shot to another, you see her falling, you hear her body hit the ground, the silence is deadly, the camera pulls away, and so does Nobara. It creates a great contrast with the sweetness of the flashback, very well done. AND THERE'S SILENCE; I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY DIDN'T PUT IN THE OPENING, THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD BE DONE. The chapter had good sound as well. Brilliant direction. Everything was perfect, from the soundtrack to the entire team. Thanks to everyone involved. Simply cinematic.

'Itadori, tell everyone... it wasn't that bad.'"

Chapter 20: Pfffff, these last two chapters were 10/10 in everything. Well, let's discuss the chapter. It starts with a flashback of the trio, or better said, ex-trio, recalling one of their happy moments. The scene abruptly shifts from a cheerful moment to the supposed corpse of Nobara. Clarification: I say 'supposed' because even in this chapter, they say, 'Maybe she's dead, she might be saved, but don't get your hopes up.' And that phrase GENERALLY means she's coming back. This isn't a spoiler since I'm not up to date with the manga, but sooner or later, I have faith that she'll reappear, healed, traumatized, with a lovely eye patch—I have faith.
The entire chapter is well-directed (the Shaft director of the chapter, pfff, I love it, and it's quite noticeable). From the flashback to Nobara's corpse and all of Yuji's expressions, everything feels incredibly smooth. The animation played its role exceptionally well, and the noticeable strokes in the facial expressions are delightful—it lived up to expectations. Mahito's strikes feel like he's hitting something devoid of willpower and that can't resist any longer, accompanied by some illustrations of what he's saying (like the mountain of skulls, for example). The lighting in this chapter is also fantastic, illuminating the hallway when Mahito is hitting in complete darkness. Although the later lighting in the chapter is also good, we're still at the beginning.
BUT, when Mahito seems about to kill Yuji, MY ABSOLUTE F***ING DAD, MY BEST FRIEND, appears with that soundtrack playing—INCREDIBLE. He finds Yuji completely devastated and quickly helps him recover to resume the fight. I love Todo's ability, and the animation does it justice; you don't feel lost at any moment as he changes positions, all accompanied by a tremendous OST. Everything flows incredibly smoothly, and the fight shifts positions for Yuji to enter and give a massive punch to that guy.
Following this, we move to a flashback where Miwa and the robot have a conversation where Todo's involvement is explained a bit. The robot bids farewell to all of them. We quickly return to the fight we were watching earlier, and I already mentioned that the animation here looks fluid. Well, I think I've said it a few times, but let me say it once more—what animation! The lighting shifts from yellow when they're in Shibuya to blue when they break everything and are underground, giving Mahito more prominence. It makes him look more imposing, as if he's playing. The final scene has a soft greenish tone, almost dark, where the light is barely visible, creating a feeling as if they were practically in the sewers. It ends with the last scene featuring immersive fire, as if the background wants to tell us that they're in the very depths of hell.

Apart from playing with colors and palettes in each scenario, the lighting also varies within each scenario. For example, when Todo enters the curse train that Mahito creates, the inside looks as if it's inside a living being, while Mahito is lit with a greener and soulless light (as if the way Mahito is illuminated represents his soul, if I can explain it, but I love this). Doing all of this feels dynamic and perfect. They even recreate the original manga panel with the three of them in the final pose. It ends with Mahito unleashing an attack that destroys part of Shibuya, releasing a horde of curses. Simply beautiful, the entire technical aspect, the story, the adaptation—everything was brilliant. It's complete madness what they did, all of this in such a short time, and I love it, especially that it works so well. My hats off to the animators.

Chapter 21: Satisfaction in this chapter for the beating that Mahito received. The climax of the fight is in this chapter with its iconic panels as Mahito constantly evolves. He does the same as Gojo, the domain expansion in 0.2 seconds, almost killing Todo but leaving him totally incapacitated with only one arm and quite injured. I didn't expect that special sequence with Takada Chan. Many emotions in this tremendous chapter, which is a masterpiece. The technical aspect was excellent in this chapter—animation, almost dark lighting accompanying the background where there is nothing, I like that a lot, and the soundtrack, that's how I like it, not putting the opening...
Well, I got lost commenting on things. The point is that Mahito evolves constantly in the fight until he evolves into a definitive Mahito vs. Itadori with incredible choreography and tremendous animation against an all-black background, simply amazing. Both are quite worn out in the battle, both Itadori and Mahito. Just when it seems like Itadori is more affected, a character who seemed dead emerges from the shadows—THE CHARACTER TODO:

"An arm is just an ornament. The act of clapping is an acclamation of the soul."

And thanks to this tremendous moment (and a tremendous reference to HxH), Itadori can deliver the final blow to Mahito. Without any soundtrack or anything, the protagonist proceeds:

"Right, Mahito. I am you. I wanted to reject you, convince myself that you were wrong. But that doesn't matter anymore. I'm going to kill you. Even if you come back as another curse, I'll kill you. Change your name. Change your form. I'll kill you again. I don't need to find meaning or reason. Maybe a hundred years after my death, the meaning behind my actions will become clear. In the grand scheme of things... I'm probably just a cog. But I'll keep killing curses... as long as I can. That's my role in all of this."

Saying this speech almost expressionless, completely cold as if he were practically involved in causing Mahito to die in any way he wishes (and rightfully so). All of this is accompanied by the silence in Shibuya alongside the presence that Itadori imposes in this scene—cinematic moment of Jujutsu and a brilliant adaptation of this incredible moment. It was truly what I wanted to see. The wolf hunts the rabbit, a beautiful and entirely symbolic panel to the core.

Mahito's screams, completely terrified for his life, literally begging for his life, Itadori's determined walk fixed on his goal, the snow and silence of Shibuya, the rabbits and wolves representing the hunter and the prey, the resentment, the desperation, and the determination—all contribute to the absolute peak of Jujutsu Kaisen.

Chapter 22: God, the soundtrack in this chapter was incredibly solid, and the animation was top-notch, although during the Choso vs. Geto fight, there were attacks or hits that I didn't understand. Apart from that, which might have been just a few frames, the animation was very much up to the mark. There were some great shots, like the one of Miwa trying to strike Geto with a sword, and it breaks (useless till the end, like in the meme). Geto summons the Uzumaki spiral, a monstrous creature, and Miwa is in the background—this shot I really liked. They animated Itadori well, all bloody on the floor after Geto's hundred feet attack, although I didn't like the attack much as it seems to lack impact. The iconic panel of Itadori that I mentioned earlier is well-executed, and after that, Mahito leaves for the collection. Goodbye, my man, you were a great villain, but what makes you great is that you ended it here.
After all that, to no one's surprise, reinforcements come running... the Kyoto school... well, more than reinforcements, they are THERE. BUT, something interesting happens, and clearly, they are not who they seem to be. Choso discovers the revelation of who was actually in Geto's body: Noritoshi Kamo. He's an evil sorcerer from hundreds of years ago, apparently from the Kamo clan, labeled as the black sheep and broken, essentially. Choso falls under the influence of besto friendo, and now he's Itadori's big brother.

The fight between Geto and Uraume vs. Choso is so well animated. The fluidity is noticeable, especially with Choso's penetrating blood abilities, and then the blood appears on the floor, leaving Geto airborne. Geto summons some kind of flying manta ray, and then they engage in close combat, accompanied by that soundtrack that I love. The animation stands out, especially with the all-black background, making it look like they are in absolute nothingness when, in fact, they are in the middle of Shibuya or what was Shibuya.

NOTE: I continue to call him Geto even though I know it's not him, for better understanding. I won't change the entire text to his REAL name, and besides, I think it's clear when I refer to him that it's not him. Just a small clarification.

I like Uraume's ice ritual technique—the ability itself and how it immobilizes everyone, allowing Itadori to save his big brother with a kick and set him free. But when it seems like they're going to be crushed by the ice ritual, with a tremendous animated panel and beautifully executed lines, Yuki Tsukumo appears, and the chapter ends.

When I was reading this in the manga, I thought, "Here it comes. Now all the curses will be all over the world, and this is going to turn more into a dark fantasy apocalypse." I'm not up to date with the manga, but I would say it didn't turn out that way, but I'm not sure.
This episode was incredible; the pacing of the action and information in the script was on point. The OST, as mentioned above, was very good. The animation was a bit subdued at the beginning, but the fight between Geto and Choso was well executed. And Mahito's fate was very well written from start to finish, worthy of a villain.

LAST CHAPTER AND FINAL CONCLUSIONS: We've reached the end, I can't believe it. Well, there will be an overall conclusion at the end, but for now, let me share my thoughts on the last chapter and wrap things up. I think it was a very good conclusion to the arc. Geto cheated. He lied to us and Mahito's group when he said he wanted to help the curses, or rather, he never really stated what he truly wanted. Instead of a world where curses dominate, what he desires is a world in constant conflict and evolution, and now that Gojo is sealed, humans have lost their best card. By the way, Yuki looks fantastic.

And in the end, the one everyone was speculating about finally appears. Yuta shows up, where he was thought to appear earlier, but well, he arrives when everything is already over, confronting the higher-ups, claiming he wants to kill Itadori, or so he says. Itadori and Choso have a brotherly meeting.

A very solid and excellent season, hence the rating. Quite brave in the writing, Gege. Could it have been better? Perhaps, if Mappa's director hadn't reduced the staff by half and done what he did, it could have been better, but it lived up to being one of my favorite arcs and became a season I hold dear. Regarding the technical aspects, I've talked a thousand times in each analyzed chapter; needless to say, everything was impeccable, and the adaptation was very good. The pacing felt just right, and I enjoyed it immensely, which is the important thing, to enjoy and appreciate the art of this entire season. Impeccable overall. Hats off.

10/10

Review in Spanish
* Esta Review CONTIENE SPOILERS *

Bueno, la segunda temporada de Jujutsu Kaisen se divide en dos arcos: Hidden Inventory y el arco de Shibuya.
Estos dos arcos me los lei en el manga hace años y son de mis favoritos de todo JJK y en general es de mis arcos favoritos, cuando anunciaron esta temporada era lo que mas estaba esperando de todo lo que hay de anime. Voy a comentar, analizar, opinar y varias cosas mas que no se si puedo poner que me parecio toda esta temporada o esta obra maestra de temporada mejor dicho.

Hidden inventory: He de decir que hubo un cambio de director de la primera temporada a la segunda. El cambio de dirección de Gosso (es su forma abreviada de decirlo, se llama: Goshozono, Shouta) se nota bastante a mí en lo personal me encanta la dirección que tuvo no solo este mini arco si no toda la temporada en general parece otra serie literalmente y me da un poco vibes de Chainsaw Man (por lo menos en este mini arco en concreto), quizás soy yo el que piensa esto pero bueno idk, dicho director es de mis favoritos, aprovecho a decir, ya tenía experiencia trabajando en JJK, ya que fue el Storyboard del cap 17, y dirigió algunos capítulos de la primera temporada, que estuvieron animados re bien y estuvo implicado el (tambien trabajo en el cap 8 de CSM, en el 4 de Mob Psycho, el famoso cap 21 de Ousama Ranking, estuvo prácticamente en los mejor capítulos por lo menos hablando técnicamente de cada serie), pero bueno ya esta mucho Gosso volvamos al arco. Tanto el Opening como el ending de este mini arco me encantan aparte el ending va muy acorde al arco, como lento pero triste por un el pasado de Gojo del único amigo que tuvo y se fue por sus ideales me encanta me dan esas vibes el ending. La animacion es una locura la verdad, me encanta como encaja tan bien el escenario de 2006. Simplista, tonto y encantador en momentos funny y mas allá de eso está muy a la altura dicha animacion, la pelea que tiene en el capítulo dos con un random de la máscara vs Gojo esa coreografía me encanta. El ost que me encanta muy solida la banda sonora.

El capítulo tres aparte de lo que comento arriba de la dirección que no tuvo sentido en este capitulo en todo el buen sentido lo que hizo al final de este mismo con meter el ending, los seiyuu HERMANO los seiyuu hicieron un trabajaazo con la piba llorando tendiéndole la mano para cortar con el tiro y cortar con la música y todo, fue increíble la música, los planos del acuario, planitos de ellos recorriendo todo un parque con flores que fondos DIOOOS como me encanto todo este capítulo mira esos fondos, todo lo de Gosso no está teniendo sentido la verdad nunca dude. La banda sonora está siendo una cosa totalmente superada por la de la primera temporada por lo menos en estos primeros capítulos y hasta donde se, parte del staff solo 1 de los 3 compositores que hay en este temporada estuvo en la temporada pasada increíble la verdad el trabajo de estos tres muchachos, al principio del cap gojo resolviendo todo una trama que parece que iba a desarrollarse más pero al final NO PUM toma y ya rescatamos a la maid bueno pasa lo que comente arriba lo de los fondos guardaespaldas llegan a la guarida de Tensen para entregar a Riko y aparece mi PADRE Touji QUE PELEA DIOS MIO QUE INTENISIDAD QUE ANIMACION GOSSO CINE que ojos que tiene Gojo me encanta y toda la sangre y cuando está casi muerto. Definición de cine.

El capitulo 4 estuvo increible tambien pero no igual que el tercero el tercero es una cosa como pongo arriba en el texto. Y ya llegados a este punto de la temporada te das cuenta que tiene otro estilo totalmente diferente otra vibes esa seasson que me encanta. Me gusto este cap en cuestion de peleas Gojo vs Touji dicha pelea para mostrarte el morado con una hermosa banda sonora mientras pasa todo esto y en el cap en general y a Gojo se ve bastante perdido en la mirada que bien dirigido en cuestion de todo. Me encanta como esta en el cielo como parece que esta por tan por encima de Touji… y ya que estamos hablando de Touji. Creo firmemente que Toji también cargaba con un peso psicológico muy fuerte. Él había sido maltratado y repudiado toda su vida por su familia y constantemente se le trató como si no valiera nada, el haber conocido a Gojo lo hizo sentir miserable consigo mismo porque Satoru era un prodigio, había nacido con suerte, dones y una técnica muy poderosa, todos amaban a Gojo, Gojo no necesitaba probar de que era capaz a diferencia de él que constantemente luchó por tener aprobación, propia y ajena, Gojo era lo que el hubiera deseado de si mismo porque constantemente era referenciado como el hechicero más fuerte, para el, la carga mental de eliminar a Gojo era eliminar lo que lo acomplejó toda su vida, demostrarse a sí mismo y a los demás que era capaz de más. El error de Toji fortaleció a Gojo, y la tristeza que debía cargar fue algo que permaneció solo para el propio Toji.
Que personajazo que es Touji de mis personajes favoritos de JJK y eso que aparece poco pero lo que aparece destaca. Fue repudiado por el clan Zenin por no tener energía maldita, de igual manera el mismo clan sabia que era una máquina de peleas (y de matar) lo echan igualemente por tenerle miedo y cosas del prestigio del clan y mas huevad*s Y AL FINAL termino siendo el ser humano mas fuerte sin energía maldita y con dos huevos. Me encanta que mas adelante de irse del clan deja su apellido del clan y toma el de su esposa Fushiguro y se va laburar de asesino y tiene el apodo de “el asesino de hechiceros” que apodo que impone. Aparte de todo lo que mencione era una persona brillante en todo los sentidos no solo en destreza, fuerza sino también en inteligencia. Todo el plan que ideo para matar a Gojo, lo del tiempo limite de la recompensa para extenuarlo, el idear todo un plan y estrategia para vencerlo y para agarrarlo con la guardia baja una vez terminado el tiempo para luego idear todo el plan para matar a Rika me parece brillante. Y lo que mas me gusta es que lo hace ver a Gojo el personaje mas roto de todo el anime posiblemente como si fuese un niño ya que si Touji no le hubiera dicho todo el plan el ni siqueira se hubiera dado cuenta hablo de cuando saco la recompensa y todo eso pfff que personajazo. Una excelenete escritura tanto de personaje como de lo que hizo para vencer a Gojo, el como mato a Rika de una sin charla sin nada apareciendo de las sobras para cumplir su trabajo ASI SE HACE, hasta no haberlo matado a Geto para que no libere la maldicion ese que le daba un poco de miedo porque no sabía que hacía. Impecable personaje.
Bueno ya que nos desviamos demasiado les comento mis personajes favoritos de toda la temporada y en general: Touji, Gojo, Nanami, Itadori, Maki (aunque ella esta un poco por lo que pasa después de todo esto pero tiene que estar Maki) y pondira a Sukuna también me gusta como impone pero siento que me falta algo para el pero serian ellos básicamente. Me encantaría seguir con cada uno de los siguiente personajes pero siento que me fui demasiado por las ramas y sigamos por donde estábamos aparte que ya les va a llegar su momento a cada uno.

Ultimo capitulo del mini arco: comienzo el capitulo y ya paso un año desde la pelea del cap 4 y Gojo ya es el mas fuerte de todos y Geto ya se está cuestionando todo teniendo tanto tiempo solo y habiendo tantas maldiciones a raíz de todo lo que paso parece que hay una plaga y se cuestiona que para que sirve hacer todo esto si al final se mueren todos. Después aparece una waifu y le dice dos maneras en las que no hallas espiritus malignos la humanidad: una que la humanidad controlo la energia maldita y otra que sean como Touji entiendo

bueno termina el capitulo con una direccion espectacular para lo que es el manga que era puro texto y estan hablando todo el tiempo y Gosso juega con la direccion a todos los sentidos con los aplausos transición de la lluvia los planos funny y animacion fluida con una buena direccion y muy buen ost y contraste. Geto se cambia de bando chocando con la ideología de Gojo y en medio de la calle nos deja una frase icónica:

”Eres el más fuerte por ser Satoru Gojo o eres Satoru Gojo por ser el más fuerte ”

me gustó mucho el capítulo y este mini arco del pasado de gojo es espectacular el cap 3 sigue siendo mi favorito de todo el arco porque no tiene sentido y el 4 es especular también pero no a al nivel del 3.

El incidente de Shibuya: Que eterno se me hizo el parón de un mes pero volvió con EL arco. Bueno el capitulo seis arranca con que quieren recomendar al trio protagónico para ser hechiceros de primer grado básicamente son los que enfrentan a los bichos fuertes. Pero para ser hechiceros de primer grado no basta solo con la recomendación, si no también en cómo se desarrollan en dicha misión y lo que hacen para que te puedan ascender . Después el resto del cap se resume en la piba esta de la infancia que le gustaba Itadori pero no le dice nada. Por cierto pense que dicho personaje se habia puesto por algo o que iba a tener mas relevancia no se si en este arco pero mas adelante pero no ajsdja gege lo puso ahí para rellenar calculo para ver un poco el pasado de itadori quizás? No se, bastante irrelevante todo eso pero en fin. La otra mitad del cap parece que hay un topo ,que en realidad no es topo pero eso se sabe después , y es mechamaru, tiene info de shibuya y se la quiere llevar a Gojo. Cuestión que no puede ya que Geto y Mahito no lo necesitan mas y pelean. La animacion y direccion ,gosso cinema, sigue solida en este punto. Y hay opening nuevo que del primer momento que lo escuche me encanto y el ending va perfecto tambien acorde al arco, tambien tengo que decir que el ending me gusto mas al final pero no me disgustaba.

Los dos próximos capitulo estuvieron maso menos. Bueno, el 7 fue más introductorio estuvo la pelea de Mechamaru vs Mahito que estuvo muy bien animada y creo que rellenaron un poco con la animacion, ya que no me acordaba que era tan larga la pelea en si en el manga, de igual manera no me quejo ya que dicha pelea estuvo muy bien animada con referencias a otros animes y planos destacables. El resto del cap es una cortina que ponen en Shibuya para que la gente se quede atrapada, dividen en varios grupos para que entren en dicha cortina. Y Gojo entra solo a Shibuya en este capítulo. Sali de ahí máquina. Y como marco arriba este cap fue muy introductorio y el que le sigue estuvo demasiado flojo diría que es el peor de todo Shibuya ya que básicamente se resume en la pelea con el saltamontes ese que a Gege le pareció una buena idea explicarme todo el proceso de apareamiento y demás cosas que me estaba durmiendo pero lo salvo gojo sacándose las vendas de los ojos y mirándolos con cara de los voy a hacer mierda, también me gusto como lo retienen a Gojo y como pasa toda la sangre con el poder de Choso, pero nada mas dos capítulos muy bien adaptados porque pasa tal cual en el manga pero sin mas acá no fue culpa de Mappa estos capítulos, sino de Gege.

Capitulo 9 y 10: Los dos capítulos muy bien a diferencia de los otros dos que comento, estos dos estuvieron mucho mejor en cuestión de todo: animacion, dirección, ost. La banda sonora del piano mientras Gojo se baja a todas las maldiciones en medio de toda la multitud esa, impecable, como usa la expansión de dominio durante 0,2 segundos que es el tiempo que aguanta la gente normal y bajandose a todas las maldiciones (que nos dio un buen meme por cierto), cuando sellan a gojo supieron replicar muy bien lo del manga y hasta mejorarlo con el silencio y todo el plan en si, y buena banda sonora especialmente, el pianito cuando gojo queda sellado ahi totalmente inmóvil y se revela que en realidad no es Geto el que ve con unos planos bastante destacables, impecable, una muy sabia decisión por parte de Gege el sellarlo, ya que yo, y mucha gente que conozco también, se preguntaba el que iban a hacer con Gojo? Porque okey es la persona mas fuerte de todos pero como iba a hacer gege para que esto no sea cualquier cosa y la verdad que me callo la boca e hizo una muy buena escritura por su parte ante todo esto muy bien y solo esta arrancando el arco lo mejor.
Bueno, luego de todo esto hay una BARBARIDAD de texto que lo salva la dirección de Gosso por suerte pero bueno texto IMPORTANTE lo bueno y no texto al pedo como el saltamontes ese y mucha preparación de todo lo que va a pasar, tengo que decir que cuando itadori mata las maldiciones se veían un tanto raras pero no me quejo son unos randoms (aunque la animacion de todo el brazo estuvo muy fluida la verdad, no me estoy quejando de la animacion aca) y aparecio EL personaje Nanami, otro de mis personajes favoritos de JJK.

Ya que hable de Touji me toca hablar un poco de Nanami. Es todo lo que esta bien en un personaje para mi, tiene carisma, es super importante para la tramada, nada de lo que ocurre durante el desarrollo de su historia se siente forzado, el diseño estas tremendo, su personalidad en fin es EL PERSONAJE. Su introducción de la primera temporada me encanta, como odia trabajar con horas extras y se lo impone en su ritual a modo de restricción de que el tiene menos fuerza en horas laborales pero cuando trabaja horas extras desata todo su poder esto es brillante ya que si tarda mucho el combate es porque realmente le cuesta y mientras mas largo se haga mejor para el, un plus para matar rápidamente a cualquier maldición que se le ponga difícil. También otra cosa que me gusta del personaje es que se fue de la hechicería para irse al mundo de los negocios pero se dio cuenta que no llenaba eso, no le alcanzaba le faltaba algo, se dio cuenta que en verdad le gustaba ser hechicero bueno en realidad le parecía una cagada desde una mirada objetiva pero a el le hacía feliz el poder ayudar a personas y eso me gusta que le parezca malo el trabajo pero que lo siga haciendo igual porque te sentis realizado. Mas adelante voy a seguir hablando de Nanami me parece un personajazo y hasta de como termina me encanta.

Los tres capitulo que vienen son una cosa. El mas flojo es el 11 ya que la dirección acá me fallo siento que estuvo medio raro, en algunos momentos destacaba algún que otro plano lindo dibujado pero en otras no se entendía nada hacia donde estaba dirigido los puñetazos o el impacto de los mismo no se sentía nada. Demasiado floja la pelea en si pero por tema de dirección mas que por animacion el manga aca esta mucho mejor esta pelea pero igual me da un poco igual. Reviven a Touji, miren que a mi en lo personal ODIO que revivan a los personajes pero acá Gege le da cierto sentido ya que solo pueden revivir a alguien que no tenga energía maldita por el poder de la abuela esa así que está bien escrito y aparte aparece bastante poco así que no me estaría quejando. Y también aparecen Maki y Nobara peleando contra el loco de la espada que no me acuerdo su nombre pero que desde este capítulo quiero que se muera. Y por suerte aparece Nanami a hacerlo pure básicamente, y durante todos los golpes que le está dando que bien dibujado que esta Nanami. Y a su vez, en el otro extremo están peleando Itadori vs Choso. Como me gusta el diseño de Choso me encanta y he de decir que es un personaje que promete mucho en un futuro no se lo que pasa después pero promete. La pelea en si es un deleite audio/visual de principio a fin y algunos lo tienen de sus capítulos favoritos, no se si es mi capítulo favorito ya que hay tantos buenos en este arco que es complicado quedarse con solo uno pero es un 10/10 este capitulo en todo el apartado técnico (ost, animacion, dirección) también la paleta de colores en esa pelea me gusto cuando entran en los baños como se ilumina de rojo a itadori y de un azul a Choso y la iluminación también todo impecable todo eso. Algo que se me olvido comentar y que este capitulo me hizo acordar es que el escenario juega un papal muy fundamental no solo en esta pelea (como se van cayendo los carteles, o cuando explican algo y te lo muestran con un aviso de fondo en shibuya, la iluminación en si como se van apagando todo) sino tambien en varias mas en la anterior de nanami jugaron con el escenario con la electricidad en la pelea de gojo cuando se bajo hanami y lo remato como que hubo un segundo de corte de luz me gustan esos pequeños detalles.

Capítulo 14: El segundo peor capitulo en lo personal, de lejos y con diferencia. La pelea de la playa y todo eso en el manga me encanta se notan mucho los problemas que está teniendo Mappa con todo del staff que se fue la mitad y lo del contrato que le hicieron firmar a sus animadores para que no digan como estaban trabajando eso me parece horrible por parte de Mappa e innecesario porque lo estabas haciendo bien!! a ver se deja ver el capítulo pero fue bastante mediocre todo la animacion y con mucho contraste demasiada luz, muy flojo los bichos animados, la dirección también bastante rara. Lo destable acá es la banda sonora siempre solida estuvo muy bien y el principio del capítulo no estuvo nada mal hasta el opening. del opening para adelante es horrible, en el manga el pulpo con el que pelean impone un montón y en el anime parece un chiste. nota de aclaración: el director del cap puso tweets diciendo la pésimas condiciones de trabajo así que la culpa de esto es 100% a Mappa por hacer todo esto y no darle los tiempos a los animadores y directores no les culpo a ellos soy perfectamente consciente de que son capaces de hacer absoluto arte pero los que están arriba no quieren, quieren el fast food y que salgan los capítulos y dinero que triste.

Capítulo 15 : Ahora sí, mucho mejor este bastante bien. Bueno, aparece Touji, que está bien que es mi personaje favorito pero es un guionazo que aparezca en medio de lo que abre megumin ajsdja pero bueno. Que dicha entrada de guionazo encima me gusta más en el manga pero buen en fin. peleíta de Touji contra el pulpo buena coreografía en la pelea y se lo baja fácil y después lo manda a volar a Megumin. Después aparece Jogo y SUPUESTAMENTE mata a todos y va a darles los dedos a itadori para que despierte Sukuna. Pfff como le arranca el brazo a Jogo con esa mirada que le lanza y después matando a las otras dos y retando a Jogo estuvo muy bien el cap muy bien y en animacion/ dirección cumplió bastante mas en la pelea de Touji muy pocos altibajos como en el anterior muy bien sigan así espero.

Capítulo 16: Este capitulo se centra en dos peleas: la de Touji vs Fushiguro y Jogo vs Sukuna. Ambas me encantaron en cuestión de todo la pelea coreografía, animacion , direccion la fluidez en la animacion esta re bien lograda en este capítulo, hay escenas que en el anime están muchísimo mejor que en el manga como por ejemplo cuando Megumi invoca a todos los conejos y Touji se los baja de una, toda la pelea en si Touji estaba recontra re por encima de megumi en la pelea y lo mas importante de esta pelea en si, es que se muere, ahora sí, el mejor personaje de JJK Touji y de la mejor forma preguntado el apellido de Megumi, la manera en la que a Touji le regresa la luz a las ojos y sonríe al ver que su hijo no es un Zenin, el clan que tanto lo basureo, fue tremendo esa escena es sublime.

"No Zenin, ¿eh? Me alegro."
La sola existencia de Megumi, la mayor bendición de su vida, le permitió morir en paz. Dios este capítulo es de mis favoritos.

La pelea contra Jogo, o bueno… no se si decirlo pelea ya que Sukuna estaba jugando con el todo el tiempo. El escenario siempre presente (como comente arriba) , y en esta pelea más todavía, jugando un papel muy importante en esta pelea. Ya que se ve y te lo muestra de manera mejor el anime que en el manga como se destruye absolutamente todo al paso de la pelea poniendo detalles que me encantaron, como por ejemplo que pongan el medidor de temperatura justo después del ataque en el edificio ese y después de esto agarra los dos edificios y se los tira a Sukuna para que el los parta al a mitad por decirlo así. El escenario estuvo muy presente en este cap y quería recalcar esto y me encanta aparte que sigue esa fluidez que comento arriba en animacion el como corta los edificios como tira a Jogo de un lado para otro como si estuviera jugando Sukuna literalmente. Y todavía hay más encima porque Jogo le tira un puto METEORITO haciendo estallar media ciudad y antes de hacerla estallar la ciudad aparece Sukuna en frente de esos randoms y dice que literalmente que no se muevan hasta que el lo dice, la tensión que se siente ahí es tremenda, hermoso literalmente sukuna jugando con todo el mundo y los otros re cagados mal y si. Toda la coreografía de la pelea fue general y ver la muerte de Jogo con la famosa flecha animada adaptada como los dioses es simplemente genial. C A P I T U L A Z O.

Capitulo 17: No no no no no, porque Mappa PORQUEEEEE EL OPENING, LO ESTABAS HACIENDO MUY BIEN. ME DA IGUAL LA LETRA, NO PEGAAAAAAAA. No, es que no lo puedo creer arruinaron uno de los mejores momentos de Shibuya con el opening????? Es que literalmente no pega nada, la gente comentando es que letra no se que no se cuánto, a dale pone un tema de phonk metamorphosis y decime “no pasa que la letra pega por que esto y lo otro” NO, loco es totalmente ritmito el tema y no pega por eso, ya que es uno de los momentos más traumático del MC y vos pones un tema de Shakira waka waka y no pega por eso entienden?. Hubiera estado muchísimo mejor un piano de fondo tranquilo, un violín, EL ENDING DE FONDO, un ost tranqui que tiene tremendos ost JJK no nos olvidemos pueden hacerlo tranquilamente O EL PUTO SILENECIO HUBIESE PEGADO muchísimo mejor dios, no no lo puedo asimilar todavía. Bueno, sacando esto que fue al final del capitulo PERO NO FUE MENOR. El capitulo en si me gusto ajsdjas si parece que estoy jodiendo pero sacando lo que comento arriba todo el capitulo me gusto ya que el momento incdent ocurre al final del cap. Estuve leyendo que prácticamente no tuvieron nada de tiempo para hacerlo así que yo desde aca les doy un aplauso para los animadores. Perfecto en cuestion de todo el apartado tecnico ya siento que me repito demasiado diciendo que la animacion esta bien pero creo que no lo hago lo suficiente la pelea de Sukuna vs Mahoraga estuvo increible, una persona puso por twitter que en uno de los edificios que tanto aparecen en las pelea hay uno que estan las medidas de todo el sector de animadores de Mappa, es decir donde estaban trabajando prácticamente, me gusta como dato ajsdjas.

Un detalle que me gusta mucho en esta pelea es que se muestre a la gente refugiada y escondida por todo esto le da mucho más impacto el hecho de que se muestre como esta destruyendo toda la ciudad y todo lo que está haciendo Sukuna, te está mostrando directamente que está matando miles de personas, y lo peor es como si las estuviera matando de paso como si fueran efectos colaterales de la pelea y nada mas. Esto en el anime esta mejor, aparte de cómo te muestran la gente en varias secuencias se ve gente muriendo en medio de toda la pelea y le da un detalle. El ost también muy bien animacion tremenda como comento siempre en toda la secuencia de la pelea me recuerda mucho a la segunda temporada de mob psycho el capitulo que esta tremendamente animado(creo que es el 5 o por ahí pero saben a cual me refiero) y me encanta que solo me haga acordar de ese capítulo y me encanta. Aplauso simplemente aplauso para los animadores por el poco tiempo que tuvieron y lo que hicieron. y aparece mi padre de fondo, Nanami. Me gusta tambien el inicio de la pelea como invoca a mahorada y dice prácticamente: bueno. lo invoco, me mata, pero tambien te mata y que haga mierda todo este bicho ya ta.

Capítulo 18: bueno en este capitulo aprendieron a poner silencio en todo (tanto en el inicio hay silencio y en algunas partes de la Nanami). Aunque no estuviera de la mejor manera animado o con la direccion, ya voy a tocar ese tema. La muerte de Nanami está muy bien con los silencios y esa banda sonora tocaba muy fuerte en el corazón, todo muy bien. itadori vs Mahito la pelea en si no me parece muy mala la verdad tiene algunos planos muy buenos, PERO a veces, la acción no se entiende muy bien los golpes como que no sabes a donde van y se siente medio raro aunque me gusto la pelea en si y más si los plazos de entrega de los animadores es muy corto bastante que pudieron hacer algo, y no solo eso si no que toda esta pelea es original de mappa no está en el manga así que no me quejo tanto. Por el final del capitulo en si, Nobara se encuentra con Mahito y le hace un par de cortes Nobara los planos de nobara estuvo muy bien y muy bien animada toda esa parte la verdad. No estuvo tan mal el cap lo importante fue la muerte de Nanami de este cap y lo reflejaron muy bien muy bien como lo enfocaron.
Probablemente esta es la mejor parte del capítulo de Jujutsu Kaisen, Un Nanami mientras pelea imaginándose en la playa, estando en paz consigo mismo para al final darnos una cálida sonrisa y despidiéndose de Itadori...
En el manga la muerte de Nanami es cruel e inesperada. El impacto se siente más desde el lado de Yuji. En cambio, el anime nos da un entendimiento más profundo del deseo de Nanami, tener su propia paz. Es bastante lindo conseguir diferentes sensaciones con el mismo producto.

Capítulo 19: Este capítulo me encanto. Un capítulo bastante valiente si tengo que describirlo de alguna manera ya que se saca de en medio un personaje del trio protagonista enfrente de itadori que ni siquiera pudo procesar lo de Nanami y ahora la “mata” a la otra. Muy buena escritura de este capítulo por parte de Gege. El flashback en si siento que esta puesto un poco forzado como que desde el segundo 1 que aparece ya sabes lo que va a pasar y tratan de sacarte la lagrimita para que veas con el típico cliche del anime de que un personaje está a punto de morir y te ponen a sus amiguis de la infancia a pesar de que parece que me estoy re quejando de esto creo que esta bastante bien el flashback ni muy malo y muy bueno un poco forzado por lo que comento pero tampoco innecesario quizas se me hizo un poco largo pero muy bien.

Llegue al limite de texto en MAL ni siquiera sabia que habia pero bueno son como 30 paginas de word asjdas, en la version en ingles sigue la review, traduzcan. Perdon si fuera por mi la subiria entera.
