Guess I should preface this with I JUST finished this season at time of writing. So my opinions are fresh, and not really thought out fully. So keep that in mind.


Wow... I have.... Mixed opinions on this season, compared to the first. The first arc slapped absolute hell and without getting into spoilers, it sets up the season really well, and maintains it for a majority of it... That is, until the ending 3 episodes. They feel extremely rushed, if not incomplete. ESPECIALLY the final episode, it felt like half the episode was cut, and shoved into the next potential season.

First off I guess, ... is visuals, and I'm mostly positive towards this. Effects, especially in the set piece battles were great, I did feel like they took a lax approach on rapid movements, and it almost looks blurry/incomplete. But otherwise everything else holds up well.

Secondly, pacing after the first arc, is all over the place, and feels really hard to keep track of, and towards the end, I found myself just shutting my brain off, and enjoying what I could. It feels like parts of the plot were thrown at a wall like crap, and seeing what sticks. And it sucks too, because I feel like on a second watch, I would probably understand more, its just going too fast for me.

I would talk about the plot, but that would delve into spoilers, and I don't want to do that. So i'll end with this.
JJK Season 2 is a massively mixed bag, there are really good moments, and really questionable ones. With a lot of what I genuinely feel like are plot holes. I would still recommend a watch, but be prepared.

Two words. Fight Song.

Since discovering that song, plus looking into the artist. That's how I became interested in this, and honestly.. It's my first foray into manga, and in my genuine opinion. I'd say if you're new to manga, or like the vibe set up by Jujutsu Kaisen, and looking for a good time sink (Vet Manga readers might say otherwise, this is my thought.) check this one out. Currently 10 chapters into it, and its been a ride thus far. The characters are set up to your typical 'slice of life' cast, but with the twist it gives, it breaths a bit of ... fresh air into the genre, least in my experience. The world has me gripped, and I'm going to follow this one until it finishes! Genuinely hope this one gets an anime adaptation! It needs to be brought to life by someone.

Hope this continues at the pace it's going. Because if it does, I am hooked all the way.
