Yeah, I really don't like Toudou :x
He's extremely annoying.

Panda vs Mechamaru was nice, even tho I would've liked to know what kind of animal his sisters core draws from (but I guess we'll get to see that later on). Mechamaru being a puppet was actually not what I expected, I totally thought he was a robot haha.

I'm really looking forward to next week tho.
I'm especially interested to see how JJK handles it's female cast, cause Shounen have a tendency to screw the girls over and make them weak or don't give them screentime at all.

Edit: I also couldn't disagree more with the people who are annoyed that the supporting cast gets some spotlight. Ever since Yuuji "died" all the other students were basically ignored. We didn't see Megumi or Nobara at all (except for the short conflict with Toudou & Mai) and the second years had barely any screentime either. I'm personally glad JJK is finally putting Yuuji into the background for a change.

The fight scene between Panda and Mechamaru was so well done. I love how Panda has 3 modes, bashful mode, panda mode and gorilla mode. I kinda feel sad toward Mechamaru. All he wants is to enjoy his life by playing with his teammates but he cant because of his condition.

The thing that caught my eye was the tier list panda talked about. He said toudou was 1st grade.. so where does itadori fit? I'm guessing he's around that level?

Toudou mentoring surprising and adds to his character.
Both Mechamaru & Panda (not Panda lol) backstories were interesting, one on the emo-pain extreme, the other on cute panda. Beautiful fights, reminds of Genos in OPM1 with the quick techniques & acrobatics.

Reading this thread made me think if I'm watching the same anime as you guys are.
I can't stand those students from another school, the muscled guy is annoying, Jesus Christ.
Just wanted to see the old and good people vs curses.

Yea I dislike Toudou as well since his first appearance, very annoying character with that waifu thing. The characters from Gojou school are all awsome though.

Why does it feel like the people who expects something are the most impatient ones? Like many here are expecting something spectacular and comments something negative during these episodes, like chill, I get you are impatient, but let the others have their spotlight too.

Yep the Panda vs Mechamaru is fight, although a bit downgraded, it is still fine. Nice knowing that Panda has 3 cores, which is really OP if you ask me. And nice props for him protecting Nobara from Mecha's blast.

And it is sad that Mechamaru is actually a crippled man possessing a robot as his very existence, looks like Panda defeated him proud. Although we didn't get to come back from Maki v Miwa, we did see a glimpse at the very end. And Todo teaching Yuuji before their real fight is awesome!
lot of fight scenes are gling to be shown in the next eps, maybe they'll focus more on imporatant charactee fights, this fight was nit really that important

Interesting fact about Panda, he has three cores, that’s new. It really helped beat Mechamaru. Well he did underestimate Panda, so that’s what he’ll get. It was a fun episode. Toudou is really teaching Itadori some new things and its going to be cool watching the two of them finish this battle. Next episode will be awesome (hopefully).

We learned about Panda being a cursed corpse and his Gorilla mode is badass, but I honestly prefer the baby version of him xD wouldn't mind a special of principal taking care of him.

Poor Mechamaru, tho. That kinda hit different and it was easy to symphatize with his situation. If he could join his squad in flesh, that would be amazing. Hope we get to see that soon.


Panda wa panda ja nai XD.


Yeah the original version is his actual nature ig right. This was a good side story.
Mechamaru should join the Panda and others. Combo fights of Panda and mechamaru will be lit.

A fierce battle between Toudou and Itadori becomes educational for Itadori. Guess Toudou really wants to have fun with his friend. Looks like we won't see that battle for a while judging by the preview for next episode. Sucks but even so, every other battle is sure to be intense and thrilling.

Mechamaru vs Panda. Panda has his brother and sister within in him therefore he has three cores. Very interesting. Their battle looked like a game of tag with big flashy moves added. Hand to hand combat in this show is much more entertaining to be honest.

Well I'm excited for next weeks episode!!


Itadori is quick in forgetting his former bestie Junpei Yoshino XD. Yeah but I'm looking forward for Maki vs Miwa. That's gonna be lit too.

It is a really interesting side story isn't it. Panda wa Panda ja nai!

It's a shounen bro. Plus read the manga. This goes on to a whole other level. Plus MAPPA is certainly doing a fantastic job as you must have seen.

I'm honestly not enjoying it that much either, but I have come this far so no reason to drop it.

The Junpei arc was the only high moment of this show so far. They were the only episodes I felt interested in the story. Otherwise, the plot is a complete mess and has no direction whatsoever. 16 episodes in and I still don't get what the main plot is apart from these fingers stuff.

Beside, it doesn't really help that the whole chaos power system is simply not fun or interesting, explained pretty poorly and looks complicated as hell.

I doubt my rating for this will be anywhere higher than 5 or 6 by the end of it, but as I said since we're already this far, might as well finish it.

Panda is so precious. Wish there's a way to save Mechamaru. Huhu. I hope he will get his own proper body where he can be with his friends. I'm not okay.

I wonder what Panda's sister looks like. Hahahaha!

Liked this episode. I miss Gajou.

Really like how Toudou was giving advice to Itadori. That's what a senior should be doing. Again those nonexistent flashbacks...(´โ–ฝ`)

Panda's fighting was amazing. Panda is not Panda, it's Gorilla. The way Panda speaks is too cute and the kid Panda is too much XD

Can't wait to see Miwa Vs Maki.

The class distribution/Power scaling is based on Cursed Energy. Therefore it doesn't determine which sorcerer is stronger. The Semi 2nd Class Panda ๐Ÿผ defeating Semi 1st Class Mechamaru is the sheer example of that. Mechamaru was defeated because Panda had 3 cores and they were well hidden plus he utilised that as surprise attack. So it's clear that having "Cursed Energy" and controlling that to convert into "Cursed Technique" aren't equivalent. That's the reason I am saying that Jujutsu Kaisen is amazingly balancing both "narrative" (likes of OP, HxH, FMAB) and "action" (likes of Naruto, MHA, DS) with great presentation of this power scaling. We've seen curse related anime like D. Gray Man and Blue Exorcist before. But power system here is utilised much better. Recently, it might seem overrated but with the spoilers from latest finished arc and reputation of MAPPA. I can easily say it's the next big thing (regarding shounen)
So let's not hate a show just because it's a mainstream and be receptive towards it from a neutral standpoint.
After a lot of days, I am getting HxH vibe from a shounen regarding the presentation of power scaling.
