| I know I'm maybe asking for too much here but man, when will be the time I will finally see Nobara winning something. Seriously, screw Mai for ruining such well deserved victory. Blonde witch ranting about gender roles and the misfortune her beloved female friend has to go through and Nobara being like "Fuck that. I will be strong and pretty because I want and fuck those who want women to act in a certain way." Honestly, this episode made me love Nobara and Maki's characters much more than before... if that's even possible. Can't say the same about Mai tho. Her complex couldn't be bigger and also girl, if you want to blame someone, blame the head of your old-fashioned family. Not your sister who decided to reach greater heights despite her own weaknesses as sorcerer. |
| Love strong female characters in shounen I'm pretty sure I'm in love with Nobara now I already know I'm gonna rewatch this episode like 10 times |
| Easily the best episode so far. Love the show. <3 |
 |
| I love it when those girls are talented and strong~ Nobara and Maki are so OP in this episode. I thought those two little girls in the Opening song is someone else, looks likes it's the Zenin twin sisters xD Glad that JJK aren't 'sexy female with big boobs fan service' anime. |
 |
| So action packed wow, I like how Maki is like strong underdog ^.^ |

| Amazing episode. Hats off to MAPPA for this. Amazing animation. VAs did an amazing job as well. Overall, a top tier episode for sure. |
 |
| damn really nice episode, lots of action went on. The animation this episode was so fluid, really MAPPA good fucking job absolutely nailing these past few action scenes. Nobara fighting Momo was great, happy they showed off more of Nobara's curse, really like it and her personality of just giving 0 fucks about wanting to change because of what others say, just staying herself and being happy with it. Saw more of her straw doll ability which was really nice and what she used to take out Momo's broom, then she genuinely fucking bonked Momo with a squishy toy which was amazing, and MAPPA's animation somehow made being bonked with a squishy toy look 100x more badass and serious. Mai's interruption ngl slightly ticked me off since Nobara but a lot of effort into taking out Momo who was above her league. Maki is hard core as fuck can't deny that, straight up snapped her weapon in half to further bully the shit out of poor Miwa xD But all in all, mad respect to Maki, she was born without a curse or unable to see any, yet was given superhuman strength, and thats enough for her to clap people, i too believe in Maki supremacy now. But no wonder they're not promoting her to fourth year, higherups are to fucking scared of her xd Honestly, i do prefer Maki over Mai, but i do find Mai's past and relationship with her sister really touching interesting, but also when Maki caught that fucking bullet mid air, ngl that was kinda hot as fuck. Looking forward to next episode, can't wait to see Fushiguro get passed the spotlight now. |
 "yabe." |
| I was watching this while eating dinner and this episode was so crazy visually that I had a hard time eating cause I wanted to focus on the episode! Went and re-watched the action scenes too, they were so good! Lots of dynamic shots in there, made it a very fun episode to watch. Also the squeaky hammer lol. Definitely my favorite episode of the series so far. |
| The Kyoto-Tokyo Sister School arc really has MAPPA going full-on ham with the animation, and it's full of sakuga from start to finish. Maki vs. Miwa, Nobara vs. Nishimiya (with that toy hammer to reduce the attack's effect), and especially the twin sisters battle of Mai vs. Maki, the ladies of Jujutsu Kaisen really have been spectacles of PERFECTION, and in a Shounen that always subjects females to fanservice, this is A TOTAL REFRESHER. The Zenin Clan family is just the everlasting scorn in both Maki and Mai's backstory, and unlike the Kyoto School which takes Jujutsu sorcerers as a job, the Tokyo school is in a different varianct and shape altogether. The resolution between the twin sisters, can be taken as a give-or-take perspective, being forced by the Zenin Family to deliver and Mai wanting the simple life rather than Maki's upheaval of wanting to succeed the family. A childish fight, but there's rhyme and reason to that. Another amazing episode, of which it has been the very beginning. |

So lets check some of most poular shounens.It's very refreshing seeing how this series portrays its female characters. Most Shounen battle anime use their female characters just to look cute and for fanservice like My Hero Academia, Fairy Tail, and Seven Deadly Sins, but here in JJK they're actually interesting, well-written, badass, and not overly sexualized. I especially loved Nobara's rant towards Momo saying that she doesn't give a shit about gender roles which is definitely something that I can get behind. The only downside to this is that a lot of chuds will probably get triggered and call this "SJW propaganda" like they always do. Not only that, but good god the animation was absolutely stunning! Probably the best animation that MAPPA has made so far Naruto:ppl dont like sakura but what about tsunade,konan and most Powerful charter n series kaguya? Blackclover:most Powerful captain is female mereleona plus good cast of very strong females like witch queen, Dorothy... Bleach:many Powerful female characters like the strongest captain was that female healer lady i forgot her name. Attack on titans:mikasa,ymir,historia etc.. very strong and well written characters. Onepiece:bigmom? Boa?... Want me to continue? I think most shounen portay women very good!. |
 |
| Miwa vs Maki was so well animated! Its a shame, Miwa is not really able to use her Domain that well. She could not strike Yuji nor Maki. Nobara vs Nishimiya! Ah yes, the squeaky! But Mai shot her. Sniping with a revolver! And she says, "Just in range" Wow, talk about flexing. Alright, Mai vs Maki, pretty emotional relationship they have. I hope people will like Mai more after this episode. I really hope they get along again. MAJOR and AWESOME fight coming next episode! Can't wait. |
| --AbiSa-- |
| Man, what's another episode of amazing fights? First the Nobara/Momo fight, then the Maki/Mai fight. Very impressed with the fluidity of the fights, but Nobara and Maki just didn't give two shits about others. Fushigoro in combat? Okaaaaaaay can't wait.  |
| Girls fights executed in a very well done work. Maginificent. Jjk and Mappa truly prove themself as a pioneer of a modern battle shounen, can't denied that beautiful battle animation. Perfect. Props to whoever the fuck making this one. Not to mention the backstory between those twin sisters. Its emotional, and full of relatable consequence among their talking. The additional great conversation also arrived from Nobara which was pretty much related to the twin sisters emancipation that escapes the influence of their birth clan, Zenin. Can't say anymore. For a comparation. This is far better than kny most beautiful episode, which also a bit controversy, in my honest opinion. Thats it for me, and i hope, the arrival of Mahito will bring more darkness and thrilling feels into their 'fun' fights. Lets see.... |

| Gee Momo if being cute is so important for women why you rocking that ugly ass hair cut huh Great episode, we just keep getting amazing fight scenes week after week. Hats off to the animators. This episode definitely raised my opinion on Mai, I didn't like her at all before this ep but now I feel for her. Maki still best girl tho. Rip Nobara's victory though, but I guess having the Tokyo students win every fight would be kinda lame. |

| Maki Supremacy! Fantastic episode, I can definitely say that JJK has one of the best female cast in shounen. First we had that beautifully animated fight between Maki and Miwa. Then we had Nobara vs Momo, with some Nobara shine as well, sadly she got revolver sniped. And then Maki vs Mai. I honestly really feel bad for Mai now, I understand where she's coming from, she felt betrayed and all that. I hope she gets to do what she wants and be freed eventually from her shackles. Looking forward to the next episode, we getting some Fushigoro action. Those cicadas sounds are eerily familiar, giving me some Higurashi trauma. |
 |
| I love girls in this show. |
gabbzeeeee said: Love strong female characters in shounen I'm pretty sure I'm in love with Nobara now I already know I'm gonna rewatch this episode like 10 times Nobara is awesome. But Maki is fucking god. |
| So much sakuga! Dam..Maki is something else! The first fight was amazing! Didn't expect Mai to be that kind of character ; ; Also Nobara is out D; |
| Itadori's team still in the lead despite Kugisaki being down! oh Maki is stronk! 5/5. |
 |
| So much sakuga in just one episode! Imagine what kind of Chainsaw Man will be in the future. I hope it will be like this even if it is a different staff than JJK. Besides those animations, those girls were pretty badass here. |
 |
| Miwa sure has it tough fighting against Maki. In close combat the one with the longest reach will always have the advantage. Quick draw techniques huh interesting skill. Maki sure settled that fight easily. If anything the Zenin clan is incredibly old fashioned in its beliefs. Mai and Maki sure had a tough upbringing. The insight into how they were when they were little also proved to be pretty enlightening. Which also served to expand greatly upon Maki and Mai's fight as well. The fight between the two while certainly having excellent tension also proved an excellent way of expanding upon Mai's character via the look into the many insecurities that she had. Overall an excellent ep that combined excellent action via the fights between Nobara and Momo and Maki and Mai and some excellent character expansion on the latter two. If anything the world of elite sorcerers sure is a complicated one. |

 _______I like rocks__  |
be4 said: This ep was all about female power ^^ Mai did suffer a lot that Maki left the clan but still, Maki had and still has so much potential, GO MAKI!!! MAKI has superior physical prowess that the clan refused to recognize? Is that true? I thought it was hard work, practice and resolve that made her such fierce, fearsome warrior. Go MAKI! |
Kitsunyaa said: This episode was one of the most beauties of this show omfg and the adaptation is so well done aaaahhh! im so hyped for the next episode, mahito!!! and Nobara reminded me of Amy Rose with PikoPiko Hammer xD Next episode is gonna be so lit! Almost every episode is breaking the roof! We are gonna get some more of our guy Fushigoro. FINALLY! |
| It so sucks that they can't make a longer episode. Maki is just insanely incredible. Her ingenuity in handling Miwa's "New Shadow Style" Ittoryu Iai shows she's a genius. Maki was able to asses the situation at once while Nobara frantically attacks Momo. It is directed well as we can see the difference in experience clearly. BTW Miwa's attack is not shown to be very effective (giving an explanation about a technique doesn't make it more effective) as Itadori was also able to avoid it pretty easily or rather reflexively. Mai. Just quit the clan like Maki did and follow her. What is the basis of your grudge against Maki? It's basically non-existent. You've an ultimate technique that can change the entire course of the anime dude! Just hone that to perfection! Damn. Maki just hold her and let her cry on your shoulder. Next episode preview: Holy Shizzz! Is all that going to be in the next single episode! FINALLY we're getting in on our guy Fushigoro. After what Sukuna said about his ability I can't wait to see how he leveled up! He is the one I'm expecting the most apart from Gojo Satoru. |
AivanK said: What an episode! Nobara definitely took the spotlight for this episode, what a badass! One of the most hilarious moments from Jujutsu, this episode was such a blast.  for extra damage But Maki, oh boy! So much power, damn. Maki and Nobara's fights were their best so far! Can't wait for the next episode! Oh Hahahaha. Yeah so true. Nobara has her own way of doing things XD. This is a very under talked scene haha. The fight scenes and backstory and Maki's brilliance overshowed this! |
| I never had my doubts,MAPPA is an absolute beast.My only disappointment is .....ah,you guys know. |

Also, I personally wouldn't give Boa Hancock as a good example, Nico Robin would be a much better one |

| This episodes had the same problems like the previous episodes. The dialogue was shit once again. Why do almost every girl has to have a potty mouth? Yikes. Exposition for stupid stuff like the range of Miwa's slash or the amount of cursed energy required to form a bullet for example. Show, dont tell. That flying girl and Nobara's fight didn't have. That flying girl seems like she was fighting on behalf of Mai and not for herself. Immediately lost interest. She also spouted some bs dialogue and Nobara reciprocated in the same bs way. Their characters aren't strong/developed enough to carry the weight of their words. The shoving of Maki and Mai backstory really felt out of place. It wasn't built up at all. It should've gotten a separate arc or something. The animation unlike previous episode was very good. The actions had impact on the opponent and the surrounding environments. The animation was fluid and consistent. Moreover, the quality was maintained throughout all the fights. 3/5 |
 |
| Worst episode and worst fight so far. |

vipergod said: lmao having a female character with big tits isn't fan service. Having her, for example, run as her tits juggles is fanservice. Know the difference. And we're talking about females here, so don't bring men in. And what if they have useless men too? That doesn't make it ok to have useless females.
