JJK is clearly a passion project for the staff at MAPPA and it shows.
All caught up, this trend of the bad guys withdrawing is getting tired :V
Can they kill Mahito already please.

When you're happy and you know it~
Sukuna v. Gojo would be DBZ levels of "they're moving so fast they're literally invisible wtf is going on"
Gojo is the Saitama of this world, but unlike One Punch Man everybody knows it too and has to put up with Gojo being the exact opposite of humble about it.
The music when Gojou showed up was fucking dope as fuck. They really need to release this shows music or something because the OST is really good.
lmao for real
If Gojo hadn't shown up this whole discussion would've been about how Todo carried that fight like a pro and instead Gojo just steps on his moment.
I love that the only reason Boogie Woogie works as a tactic at all against a special-level curse like Hanami is because Todo's a genius. Anybody else would be completely unable to keep track of where everyone is at all times (and Itadori isn't even trying, just completely trusting in Todo as he was told to). The number of variables to consider at every clap would just be too much.
What a cool fight.
I was enjoying this episode, Todo's power is cool as hell and the way it was presented in the fight was awesome.
However... it feels like the good guys are just too powerful? Like they are all super powerful to the point of just standing their explaining their abilities and usually handle every threat without issue. Yuji just uses a straight up busted move on his first try 4 times in a row like its nothing.
Godou literally just deleting the curse and the coat rack guy at the end and then the next episode being a baseball game it's just like... eh, this isn't very compelling.
Like what's the actual plot? There's no stakes and I'm not even sure what the villains are trying to do

Did you miss the end of the episode? This was all a distraction so Mahito could steal a Sukuna finger.
The end of the episode has Mahito do the thing they actually planned to accomplish that day. More to see later.
I mean it was explained fairly early on that the villains are outmatched and they need to do 2 thing's to win: get Sukuna on side and killing Gojo. That's the plot that's what they're building towards.
Despite the beat down Hanami got by the kids, only Yuji and Todo got to the point where Hanami got desperate enough for a domain expansion and who knows how that would have gone if Gojo wasn't there to solve the problem. Here's the thing, being in multiple places at the same time isn't one of Gojo's super powers and the evil faction did make use of that.
Not even Killing Gojo they have to banish him. They aren't nearly powerful enough to kill him.
Another comparison you could make with Gojo is that he is kinda like All Might from MHA, but unlike All Might, he isn't saddled with stipulations like not being quite as strong as in his prime or having to deal with a time limit to his power. So basically if MHA had prime All Might available.
Much like All Might, he acts like a safety net for the good guys and a disadvantage to the villains that forces them to scheme from the shadows. Much like All Might however, if the bad guys are able to accomplish the goal of taking him out of the picture via whatever method, the balance of power will shift.

Hmm? Last time i checked with MHA
the villains got some victories and society has not been that kind to heroes screwing up. All might is out of the picture, so is it because Deku has got all the powers inside of him to deal with any problems?
I mean I want it now, but it's good to know it's getting released. Show has some bangers.
I relate.
I want that vocal track that plays in the middle of the last episode.
I want it NOW.
This reminds me of how Mirio's quirk is fucking hard to get to work and be effective, it works because Mirio put the work into it to get it be be as dangerous as it is.
This show is really entertaining haha. I think that's episode is around the point where I stopped reading. I'm looking forward to not knowing what's happening next.
On another note, do the Domain Expansions (Ryōiki Tenkai) also give off some big Bankai energy to you guys? In a good way.

Todo is basically Yuji's Mirio if you think about it.
They are basically themed ultimate attacks, in a way. All the coolest bankais had some environmental element, too.
Maki's Domain Expansion is gonna be Unlimited Blade Works
OP
OP
More like MHA's problem is having a huge cast of characters that overlap and it becomes overwhelming. I love MHA still but damn is that cast too big
I guess he's Mirio if Horikoshi wanted to draw a non evil Yujiro Hanma. Todo's great though, wasn't expecting to like him so much. Though Megumi, Maki and Nanami are probably my favorites...granted the cast as a whole is pretty solid so it almost doesn't matter whom is onscreen.
I am the bone of my sword...
Keeps getting better! We just finished ep 20, so 4 more to close out the season.
It's not a netflix or amazon prime show so yes, that's what simulcast shows do.
I agree with the lack of stakes and MHA (first season) comparisons.
I do think eventually Gojo will be taken out of commission eventually, but he decreases all the stakes. Even Todou is OP.
I think Gojou turning heel could be a compelling twist, but he hasn't shown TOO much potential of being evil. Not even sure what his motivations would be to turn evil and compel the characters to fight against him.
I do miss Sakuna though. Wonder what he's up to.
