Ah yes. Jujutsu kaisen. Where everything hurts.

Rudy Velazquez

Most relatable thing ever lol

JTBloodstone

This is one of those moments I feel like... Ya just gotta get up, and walk around for a bit

Cyan_SkyAnfall

Mahito lives

Cosmic wolf

nanami and nobara were my two favourite characters so to have both of them die one after the other was so devastating FKFK

awildjord

We got a double mha and now a double jjk, i didn't know crismum was in October; but Im happy lol

the ending with nobaras white mind place is a call back to end of season 1 when she said that she only has so many seats in her life and Yuji was one of the people that pulled up their own chair

Nigel Douglas

I think JJK tries to break the normal shonen boundaries a lot, and sometimes that comes with characters not feeling complete and dying before they reach their full potential. It's a common theme in the westerns genre of movie that seems to be being brought to anime, every character has their story, but every character is just as mortal as the rest, and watching something die is not often satisfying or complete. The flashback isn't so much meaningful to us, as much as it was for her, where she realises she had been holding herself back from enjoying things and the people around her. and restricting them to 'seats'. In her last moments she does sort of realise she had missed a big part of life, but unfortunately we never get to see that be realised.

Back in my day Cartoons!

I think there are theories that Saori’s family was harassed either because of the mom she mentioned being into spiritualism and maybe a little “hippie dippy” or, based on the framed photo on her desk, she was raised by a lesbian couple

Eileen Hinman

You know, idt I ever put together that the tag teaming is like the end of season 1 I’m crying all over again 😭

Eileen Hinman

The acoustic track that plays when Nobara was around the chairs is actually called "life wasn't so bad" definitely a tear jerker track if you guys wanna look it up

Yay Pain

11:07 Sukuna vs Mahoraga, Sukuna unleash hell in Shibuya leaving everything decimated. 11.14 Nanami's death. 11.19 Nobara's death. In less than 20 minutes, my boy saw the aftermath of Shibuya, the loss of his mentor and one of his best friends. Yuji needs therapy after this.

Cation

Great analysis!

AJ Hutchinson

I really like her cause they subvert the typically girl in group of 3 trope. She is constantly to the end a useful, smart, and honestly really fun character to watch fight and interact with others. She is also girlboss

AJ Hutchinson

I think their thoughts are more that they hate him as he is, that doesn't necessarily mean they don't think he's a well written character though.

AJ Hutchinson

Ok I can get that and it’s totally fine I enjoy that take but then why show us a nothing burger of a flashback for a character that you didn’t give enough time for us to care about like it would make us care about them ya know nanami wasn’t around for long but we found out so much about him and come to really feel his death then there is nobora who is one of the main 3 and there is kinda nothing

Mason Scott

I think thats kind of the point though. She was just starting out, her life up to jujutsu high was relatively simple. Her origin story hadnt happened yet and then shes killed. Jujutsu sorcerers live cursed lives and can die at any moment. Was she underdeveloped and we needed more time? Yes absolutely, but this story makes a point to say that it doesnt matter if a character has had their arc, they can die at any moment because this is a story of suffering not of redemtion.

Rob Carlstrom

Every time kenny tries to hope for the best i just hear montana in my head saying "manifest it king"

Rob Carlstrom

And I thought only i noticed that Gojo face: with blood clip is almost same Difference i caught Gojo face was made brighter to catch the blood stain face as intense after he got sealed You guys should watch both episode 06 and episode 20th opening They enhanced the clips a lot in the later episode OP intro compare to first OP

OMi26

I do think Nobara’s backstory isn’t as interesting as her character so I struggled with the second half of this. Still a very great and devastating episode, but I feel that despite how cool her character is she really wasn’t given an ‘arc’ at all. She never changes much or goes through any development. Normally a backstory has a very clear message or meaning which provides specific context and emotional weight on a character’s motivations. But hers left me feeling like it went over my head. If anything that’s kudos to how great of a character she is without those things. Or perhaps I didn’t understand the message.

Max

That may be the most unenthusiastic, depressed "alright, let's review" I've ever heard from Montana lol

camel

Saori hear there was a terroist attack in shibuya and did not care lil

Erin Ryan

Welcome to Shibuya!!!!! :)

cyrus gudino

Wait I didn't know you two watched Game of Thrones, did you by any chance watch its prequel House of the Dragon or would consider doing reactions to it?

Markub El Jaden

“You will know pain”

Justin Spencer

I get why they removed it here, it would've killed the momentum. They probably assumed the viewers would understand that Mahito blitzed Nobara. What was seconds for us (and Yuji) was probably a split second for Nobara. Anime time can be weird.

Juan Solo

I wish they kept the narrator through the whole series like the manga. I do think that it was obvious in this schene though. I haven't seen anyone confused ion why/how that happened.

Dave

My favorite episode of jjk is up next. a legend is about to join the fight

Allan romero

And I love you for it

Kevin Morrison

I get it, I make a lot of statements on how great Mahito is and I really do love him as a character, I find the time he is on screen is some of the best JJK imo, but yeah he’s horrible and that makes sense he’s basically the embodiment of anti human

Big Fuze

It is!

Letts React

The difference is how much I hate him. If a character hates themselves for their actions, it inspires less hatred from the audience. Mahito has 0 sympathy, therefore we occupy ALL of the hate

Letts React

Sure thing

Letts React

To be clear, Nobara's goal was still to head to B5 because that's where Gojo/The Prison Realm was. The veil keeps information from being passed between the inside and outside. The sorcerers in suits coordinate between the inside and outside. Nobara left the veil before Sukuna came out and walked back in after him to a destroyed Shibuya. Her goal was to go rescue Gojo.

Mekar

Thats what kenny said

Nath

To Kenny two episodes ago: "How can it get any worse" Welcome to worse, how are you doing.

Keyon Tinnon

why guys hate mahito :( ?he is very nice villian

지원 우

May I ask why? Not being rude I just wanna see why other liked her so much all I’ve been hearing is that “she is cool” and that’s it

Mason Scott

Then I think it’s a waste of time because I didn’t get that at all I felt was “why is this taking so long” her character hasn’t grabbed me at all so this random nothing backstory just felt like padding

Mason Scott

Keep in mind: everything that’s happened since Sukuna destroyed Shibuya has happened in the span of about 15 minutes. Yuji cannot catch a break.

James S

DOUBLE DOUBLE DOUBLE

Zachary Perry

I don’t think it’s supposed to be so thought provoking. She wanted to live better and regretted nothing.

KD

Nobody hates JJK fans more than Gege!

Trevor

Welcome to the pain train y'all Fuuuuck this shit was rough, y'all have my sympathy (and also my enjoyment at some foreshadowing y'all inadvertently mentioned)

Jinchuriki87

Not-so-fun fact: the ED changes slightly this episode. One of the pictures taken of Nobara, which showed her walking away from the camera, now shows her looking back and giving a thumbs up. 🥲

Juan Solo

MAHITO IS JUST A SILLY LITTLE GUY AND I LOVE HIM, but on a real note, if Mahito was doing the same stuff why does his personality really matter? It’s still bad stuff it would be hypocritical to be all sad and lamenting on the fact that he JUST has to kill people, not taking steps stop it

Big Fuze

It gets worse every episode 😃😃😃

Brian

I hate that the anime excludes Narration - 1) Nobora never noticed the switch hence her guard was down 2) She was heavily distracted by Itadori

ShaquanVirse

DOUBLE PLEASE!!!!!!

Black_Goku_Black03

doubleeeee please and thank you

Cath. Lefebvre

She's horribly underdeveloped. We didn't get nearly enough time with her.

ディロン・ジョイナー

I still think her backstory is a waste of time like maybe I’m missing something but it doesn’t tell us nothing just a bunch of nothing I try not to be negative but like nobora as a character is really lacking

Mason Scott

"Nobaras one of my favorites" :/

Nath

"This world shall know Pain!" Shinra Tensi!

Josh Mowery

Really hoped this would be a double

Kevin Morrison

KENNNNNYYYYYYYYYY

blue_haruki
