We're finally back; this show's fallen way behind right now. I don't think she should worry so much about other people's standards, losing weight is a good thing in itself and very difficult so she should take pride in that. That's one hell of a growth spurt too lol. It's definitely got to be important later on, because it took up most of the episode, I'm sure we won't have to wait long to find out.

Idk, there were a lot of flags and a fleshed out backstory; it's quite clear that she's going to be the focus of what happens next, and it's probably going to be tragic from the feeling I got.

L'épisode est trop drôle entre Itadori, Nobara et Megumi. Mechamaru est trop stylé.

My only issue is that though it was a nice moment to see, the Ozawa situation didn't progress the plot at all. Would've been better as a flashback moment in my opinion.

the author is trying very hard to add more humanity to the characters by adding bits like this but doesn't have the range/ patience/ conviction to commit to it, the longer you read/ watch jjk the more apparent it is. it's as if they count on audience participation to fill in the blanks without them having to put in the necessary work

I feel like it's a little bit too superficial to make Yuji said he like that girl in classroom just to show that he doesn't judge people based on their appearance. But it's in manga (I assumed?) so MAPPA can't change this no matter how much they want.

why would they change It? and why Is It superficial? even in the S1 Itadori was Someone going beyond the appearence, i Guess you didnt pay attention 🤷

I doubt they gonna animated this chapter if Shibuya gonna be rushed because of it. I don't think that we have to worry that much.

From the opening we can see that they gonna animated the whole shibuya arc in this season, so let us enjoy some happy scene before the disaster.

The arc is like 90% action. There's plenty of episodes to adapt everything. There's nothing to worry about.

Nice to finally be back, during the break I finally watched the 0 movie too and it slapped so I’m definitely hyped to finally see beyond where Season 1 ended. This first episode was mostly fun and lighthearted, we got to see the original trio being goofs along with that amazing trailer for “Human Earthworm 4” lol, and we met a new girl, Yuko, who has had a crush on Yuji since middle school, her bits were nice but I’m not about to get attached to her if I know this show at all by this point lol, no I’m not a manga reader but I will not be fooled so easily, of course if she doesn’t immediately bite the dust I’ll be pleasantly surprised.

And I wasn’t expecting Mechamaru to be a traitor but it allowed him to get a normal and functioning body which was cool to see, he’s a suave fella lol, and it looks like he’s going to attempt to defeat Mahito and Geto on his own, that giant robot is awesome looking but I doubt he’ll be able to do it, I’m looking forward to the fight tho for sure, I’m rooting for him if not just for the fact he’s likes Miwa lol.

And lastly, the visuals were awesome but I’m ngl that OP is far from my favorite, I think all the previous OP songs have been a lot better, the ED blew it out of the water tho, that is a fantastic ED song with some nice visuals too, I’m glad at least one of the new songs hit with me, the OP might get there eventually but it has to grow on me.

Wow, this was a great episode to restart the season. The new opening was good, not really into it yet though, but the visual was so cool, especially the hand sign doing domain expansion.

Things are not looking good with Mechamaru, I feel so bad for him, I want him alive and to live life with joy but at the same time I don't think Getou is going to lose, and I don't think I want him to lose either 🥹

also, does Mechamaru have a crush on Miwa? 😳 this is probably the first time we've seen a love story in JJK huh? Itadori and Yuko, Mechamaru and Miwa

Jujutsu Kaisen returns with its highly anticipated Shibuya arc. Although you wouldn't be able to tell from this episode. What we have here is basically the calm before the storm, just spending time with our main trio before throwing everything including the kitchen sink at them over the course of this arc. Nobara having some fun at Yuji expense with this girl whom slimmed down a lot recently having a crush on him. Nobara can hardly believe someone would like Yuji, its unfathomable for her to comprehend. She even had to get Megumi over there first before she could make any sense of it. Megumi affirming that Yuji is single and available, allowing this girl to make her move if she so wishes. Yuji is a nice empathic friendly guy so it makes sense a girl whom was ignored by everyone would fall for him after he showed her kindness. Mechamaru got an interesting upgrade from Mahito of all people. Revealing himself to be the rat at Jujutsu but if its to get a normal body I can understand. Mechamaru isnt just going to let Mahito run away even after receiving his gift.

Finally back to the main trio! Now we're officially picking up from where season 1 left off with a very anticipated arc.
They really went all out with the Human Earthworm lol
It's a good set up and with Kokichi battling Mahito this will be the start of a chain of events with the Shibuya arc
I also really loved the new OP as well

Well the new OP ad ED will be on my morning playlist before I head into work. This episode and its animation was top tier. I'm happy they took their time and hopefully gave the staff some time off leading up to this episode. We got a nice mix of the lighthearted then some serious stuff as Mechamaru has....I guess turn heel and basically sold everything out to get healed by very evil dudes who will kill a snail if it looked at them wrong. Let's hope his Super Sentai skills can win him the day.
I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon.

I haven''t read the manga but everybody says "Shibuya Incident Arc" is as great as "Chimera Ants Arc" in Hunter x Hunter.
If it is true, then we are in one of the best Shonen arcs ever.

Talking about the episode, first half is like "yo, the trio is hanging out and enjoying life.
The second half is taking the serious business like a prelude of the incident. Sadly, I see a death flag in Mechamaru. 

The Opening is GOD Tier.

So I am not a fan of the song by King Gnu and it definitely isn't a grower for me cause I just don't vibe it. But I will say the ED I adore. Hitsuji Bungaku are hella underrated and I am glad they got more work in anime. For anyone who doesn't know, the female group did the OP theme for Heike Monogatari, which is one of if not my favorite anisong of 2022.

Great start to basically the second part of the season. I liked the OP and ending, I bet as the episodes go by they will hit pretty hard.

Very enjoyable first half of the episode, the last nice part we gonna get, so I´ve heard. I´m not getting attached to anyone, or else I´m paying with my feelings later. I bet that girl Yuko picked a very bad time to come to Tokyo.

As for the 2nd part, I didn´t know what they were talking about with a mole leaking info and Mechamaru/Kokichi being the main suspect. I forgot about the attack during the school event in S1 and how they suspected someone gave info for the infiltration.
Cant wait to see the fight with Mahito, I´m sure it will go horribly bad.

Having to wait a week for the episodes is gonna be hell, but I´m here for the ride.

the opening fucking slaps, definitely adding on spotify, the visuals for it look amazing as well.
good first episode back since hidden inventory, first half was solid with itadori and the gang, funny stuff with nobara and fushiguri, and also yuko.
second half was just alright, don't like mahito at all but damn, mechamaru healed up looks pretty good.
ping pong scene looked great as well, mei looked hot playing like that.

no daddy gojo this episode after having a whole arc for his past but excited for the rest of this season.
