RIP Junpei

Itadori & his musings on death with that Stand in the Darkness song playing.....great end to 1st cour. Will also miss the absolute bangers of an OP & ED but I’m so excited for the Cö Shu Nie ED!

I totally thought Nanami was going to die. I laughed a little when Itadori managed to invade the domain expansion. And damn of course Mahito managed to get away.

I also liked Nanami’s backstory & his interaction with the bakery girl was really cute. I think that Itadori has had decent character development and I like how unassuming & kind he is, I hope they delve more into his character next cour. He’s slowly becoming one of my favourites, I really like him!!!!

Cute Juju Sanpo. These friends really miss one another. Can’t wait to see them back together again!!!!!

Ok ending to an ok arc. The domain expansion looked really cool but it's too bad we didn't really get to see it in action.

Nanamin don't play with my heart like that ;_; I really thought he'd die there. Especially with how they threw in the good old death flag of backstory.

So Junpei is gone for good huh, really sad how it took his death (or I guess disappearance in their eyes) for his bullies to get their punishment :(

What a way to finish this cour, This Sakuga was pure eye candy, but the intensity and creativity with the domain expansions is so well executed.You could just tell that MAPPA put so much love and effort into animating this. And a big part of that comes down to how good, fluid and creative the Gege's original work is. Itadori as a protagonist is such a cool blend of inexperience but fearlessness and my unbothered king Nanami got his backstory explained too. Like a lot of people, the only person Sukuna's simping for is Megumi Lmaoo!!, The wait is going to be worth it but I'm gonna miss the OP and ED. Itadori looks like he's crying too , So glad that this show is doing so well and really excited for it to continue exploding with the second cour

MAPPA delivered crying Yuuji who woke up from his illusions and now I'm sobbing too. Dammit, MAPPA...

MAPPA also showed us snippets of Kyoto folks' voice actors' job on Twitter, I'm so-so excited to see them! They're pretty good and lovable characters.

Yeah, he is dead. You can see 4 body bags in the afterbattle scene with Nanamin and Yuuji, containing 3 transformed kids and Junpei himself.

Great episode. The animation of this episode was brillaintly done.
The opening had Yuji crying at the end.
Nanami is such a cool character.
Sukuna takes shit from no one. Mahito survived again.

This show keeps on getting better and better, holy shit. The fight was just awesome, it was well animated and really exciting. Yuuji ended up killing actual humans, and I believe that's going to be a big part of his development as a character - doesn't often happen in shonen, main characters usually ensue being reluctant regardless of circumstances and, in case they do kill someone, it ends up being just the super villain or something. This show has massive balls, anyone can die and scenes will be as gruesome as they might be if the circumstances demand it - this is what I love about this anime, you don't often see shows that are willing to take risks in this demographic.

Despite his flaws Junpei didn't deserve such a death. Its about time that we get to see a teamup of Itadori and Nanami though. The fact that he can change shape at will really makes the demon uncanny. Not to mention the transfigured humans as well. But man the closeup of Nanami and Itadori's beatdown of him was just so satisfying. The insight into Nanami's career as a office worker though was insightful. Too bad that the demon managed to escape though after that beating. But the cost in lives for this crisis sure was steep. Though at least the ones that had a part in bullying Junpei are now able to see just how horrible their actions were. Overall an interesting ep that while showing well how the fight between Nanami and Itadori and the demon ended it also did well in showing how much Itadori's abilities had advanced.

RIP Junpei. It's sad to see Yuuji shedding tears in the OP. This is a great way to end this 1st cour. I'm gonna miss the OP and the Lost in Paradise ED, which I'm still vibing up until now. I hope next cour OP and ED will be great.

Absolutely phenomenal episode from start to finish. The insane animation and choreography and the OST's used, it was a visual joy to watch. 11/10

Also for anyone wondering about the OST when Yuji is walking down the corridor, it appears to be called "Stand In The Darkness" and it's unreleased currently.

damn, the animation was definitely the stand-out part of this episode, for me at least. coupled with the sound design, I could literally feel every punch and transformation. nanami's backstory was fitting, but it made me feel like he was about to die. glad that didn't happen. personally, the juju scroll felt kind of sad, but I'm excited to see where the series goes from here!

Great episode. Sucks that Junpei is dead, I don't see him coming back anytime soon if he even could. I'm sure i'd know if he came back in the manga so if so it won't be for a long-ass time. Cos at some point they gotta find a way to revert idle transfiguration or some

Damn, I thought that Nanami is a goner. With this flashback from his past and the "no regrets" words coming from his mouth, I was screaming for him not to die.
Fortunately Itadori stepping in big with Sukuna to save the day. What a relief!

I think it might just be me but I feel like there were certain parts of the animation (especially in the beginning) where it felt kind of stiff? Personally I enjoyed the last episode a lot more in terms of animation and content, this episode still was pretty neat! It's a cool segue into the t o u r n a m e n t arc we are getting next ;)

Very disappointed with Nanamin character dev... initially he looks like a cool, collected guy with dry humor but then this ep revealed that he's yet another weakling with existential crisis.

Srsly who cares about the meaning of your work as long as you're making the dough and... as he said "retire early to a country with lower living cost", just spend the dough and enjoy life instead of being, as his boss aptly put it, a "prudish" sourpuss

To think I was even entertaining the idea of putting him on my fav list... what a let down lol

If you're having crippling depression, hopefully our videos will send you to another world and have you reborn as an isekai protagonist

Wow i think we can relate to Nanamin backstory, typical Salaryman...
He is just a good man, helping the girl on bakery store..

Didn't think last week juju stroll was matter and have a connection to this episode...

Sukuna single handed injured Mahito, easily...

Damn Mahito, he got plot armor and running away... Itadori almost got him though...


Meanwhile this week Juju Stroll: Fushiguro making meatballs, he learns it from Itadori...

Expectations are not betrayed and the narration shows a lot of Nanami's past, so as to be able to identify more with his choices and his way of thinking and relating to life, moreover the merit of this episode is that it shows a further step forward of the character of Itadori, in his character evolution. Excellent action in the first minutes of the narration, the combat choreography was not bad. The sermon at the end of the episode is a pearl of wisdom. I'm sad because this story arc is over, but at the same time I'm overjoyed because in the next episode we will see Nobara, Fushiguro and Zen again. Yay !!!

Nice episode. I am very sorry about Junpei. From the way he seems he just suffered more and more until dying in a horrible way without learning who killed her mother. Also my man Yuuji turned into swiss cheese but still fougt like a madman congrats. I'm angry that shape shifter is still alive Yuuji should have punched him to death but he was probably in his last bits of energy so it was a good thing for Yuuji too. Finally the school events going to start, I think we will definitly see Sukuna at some point because after this episode I can say he is clearly waiting for a moment with Yuuji's friend.

Oh dear, Nanami & Itadori's plan to break down and then exorcise Mahito backfired and now he's even more dangerous with that Domain Expansion. They were just lucky that Sukuna was in the mood to fuck Mahito up haha

Cour 1 was better than I could ever have imagined and now I'm hyped for Cour 2! It's Tokyo Branch vs Kyoto Branch and it's gonna be epic! Also, the reunion between Fushiguro, Nobara & Yuuji is gonna be interesting since they still think he's dead...

I'm suffering over Nanamin's safety omg... when his backstory started I was like "ah shit! he's a goner!". Fortunately I was wrong.
Nice to see more about him, he's currently my favorite character from the series.

And now we have to wait until January 15th for next ep :(
