Itadori's resolve is so strong. Can't wait for the next episode.

This anime intro is so lit.

I now realize the reason I love this so much despite most of the flaws is that it's incredibly nostalgic to me of shows like Noragami or Blue exorcist, shows I loved in middle school and high school growing up. And those shows also had really likeable protagonists that were fun, laid back, kind of goofy in a way like this shows MC is.

Idk what it is but the "happy go lucky, heart of gold, goofy" shounen MC type is my favorite.

I like everything about this show so far, the music, the animation, the characters and their dynamics...I can tell i will really enjoy myself with this show.

A Masterpiece!
A choice!
"So choose your hell."
-----------------------
Great, Sensei! Doll-maker SENSEI sure did say some cool stuff.
"Are you going to blame your grandfather when you're killed by a curse, too."
"Education is making people realize things."
-----------------------
- That Action Animation already gives SHOUNEN feel ; not just action.
- It reminded me of "PARASYTE" Anime.
- GOUJOU seems cool. YUUJI is growing cool too.
- Like the Voice Actors behind the main characters.

Thank You :)

Aaand... I don't care. I thought that once was enough but he's going to find all other fingers and eat them all. Eww. Gross.

It's not that I'm seriously upset about it, I just don't find the concept very interesting, nor the characters. Maybe it could be a great show by shounen standards, but not so much overall.

The episode seems rushed. The animation is good nothing special. Liked the ED song with simple sakuga. The scenes is jumping too much, the serious scenes and comedy are generic. The MC motivation likely nothing outstanding. But the endgame is interesting collect fingers seems dumb but well see. Overall a bad episode, the fighting animation is the highlight with this anime. The story is generic.

I watched two episodes. And so far I see only legendary borrowings, action, dynamics and nothing super new. I don't really understand why it is higher in ratings, but apparently it's a matter of nostalgia for the old days. These times are seen, heard, felt. In principle, you can watch, not shit.
But the jokes have to be fixed - the jokes about Lawrence and the moment with grandpa are terrible. Almost burst a whole series(!) for these moments. I kind of came here to look at magic, not cremation in detail. I've had enough of this shit in my life, thank you.
May be some anime?

Liked this one as well. Still a 7/10 for now. OP was beautiful and so was ED. There's some Editing and Direction problems that makes it a 7/10 for me. Things are happening a little too fast that makes it feel like they are cutting some material from the Manga. Decent character development from the MC. We already have the Goku/Vegeta dynamic going on which makes sense but could've been done a bit more subtly. Overall I think it's a good 7/10 right now. I wish they would take it a little bit slowly and build the world a bit more subtly instead of direct narrations about how the world works. Considering it has 24 episodes at it's disposal this should turn out to be a great 8/10 show by the end.

Glad to see (or hear) Kyo's VA working with Shigure's VA... fills my emptiness left from Fruits Basket's season finale. Also, is it weird that Gojou's glossy lips is all I could see xD Anyway, looks interesting so far, I'm a fan of the collecting types °^°

PS. Love how all it takes is a second to realize when a song is by Eve.

GOJOU HAS COME! And more than a Jujutsu sorcerer, he's top of the class and facing against Yuuji with Sukuna's curse inbuilt. But rather than executing him, making him be Sukuna's vessel of collection of all its fingers is the base alternative.

To better Yuuji's growth as a Jujutsu sorcerer, the usual newbie enrollment into a special school for such sorcerers, and the hypocrisy of the "King of Curses" Ryomen Sukuna in Yuuji's body of manifestation.

This expedition is gonna be long, so stay for the ride to find more people!

As if Eve's OP isn't such a banger already, ALI's ED is another one as well, really flexing to the max.

Great potential!

The show has been very impressive so far, the comedy is quite good, the ED is super cool and groovy, and the animation seems on point. MAPPA are probably gonna kill it this season (also with AoT), this show is probably going to be top 3 for fall 2020.

This episode covered 2 chapters and even expanded scenes with some new content. This is exactly how the manga was so there are no issues with the directing, just manga issues. The writing gets better once the first real arc happens.

I went into this all because of the same VA cast of Golden Wind (Buccellati, Fugo & Abbacchio), lol.
Nakamura Yuuichi did a splendid job voicing Gojou Satoru. Never heard this kind of voice from him. It feels quite fresh, sexy & carefree. Also the Gojou vs Sukuna fight was very intriguing.

Gojo vs Sukuna was an epic fight, the animation was so good! I have high hopes for the Final Season of Shingeki now.
I feel like this series will have a bittersweet ending based on what Gojo told Yuji, damn that was a good line.
The ED is great. Turns out the members of the band Alien Liberty International(ALI) who performed it are all mixed race! The current/former members are all mixed race as well! No wonder it didn’t sound like a Japanese person was singing at first.

This series reminds me too much of Noragami, which I found to be painfully average...... the animation is ok, nothing spectacular so far and the plot is way too simple, all he needs to do is eat 18 more fingers and then they kill him, seems dry and lacking. I hope the stakes will be high when it comes to monsters with a lot of tensio, because that too Noragami lack, all the monsters wasn't a threat at all in that series.

3/5 bang average just like the first episode.

Much better than the first episode. I was able to enjoy the characters, the animation and even the pacing on some occasions. I also appreciate that they keep the number of characters to a minimum.

My only problem is that Yuuji doesn't react like a normal person when they say he's going to die anyway. That part felt odd. The comedy with him is generally very bad and forced especially when he said 'I'm into girls like Jeniffer Lawrence'.

Beyond that, it was pretty good.

Ahh the op and ed are really good!

Another good episode!

I just read today about the japanese suicide rate and I was just sad to see how much of a work ethic is expected of people, a cultural force even in this show. After all, even heroes should be allowed to rest at the end of the day.

Anyway more of a personal interpretation rather than anything helpful

Satoru made his first proper appearance in this episode. And a great one at that. He is even more OP than Yuuji. But unlike certain other OP characters, he actually has a great personality. Now I can definitely see why he's the most popular character this season.

Poor Yuuji, though. No matter what he chooses, he is going to die anyway. But I'm glad he chose the second option. To be honest, if I were in his position, I would have chosen to be executed immediately.

Finally, the ED has come, and what can I say besides it being totally amazing? Marvelous stylistic visuals combined with an unbelievably catchy song, say no more. Easily one of my favourite openings of all time.
