A Sassy Breakdown of Jujutsu Kaisen | LET ME EXPLAIN: Jujutsu Kaisen

[@Evilman_520]

Fun fact: the tattoos and voice change for when Sukuna takes over aren't actually seen by anybody in the series. It's purely just for the viewers/readers. This is evidenced by when Megumi notes that he can't tell whether it's Yuji or Sukuna talking to him when Yuji first switches back.

[@PrinceJayMoriarty]

Really? That’s cool, I thought it was like when Yuji grabbed Sukuna’s chin he was still present even though the tattoos was still there.

[@dr.revenant4139]

MANGA SPOILERS AHEAD yes people can see them jogo notes the tattoos are still there in chapter 111

[@christiangoette2315]

I'm just gonna say, all of the problems you seem to have with the series get solved in the Shibuya incident arc, which is also probably the best arc I've read so far

[@copiumkiller]

I hate that domains can be activated so easily. Also when fights boils down, who can attack (like punch) harder. In AVERAGE JoJo, HxH, Black Clover has much more engaging fights. Just watch how powers use the volcano head and Avdul (JoJo part 3). Avdul digged cavern to sneak attack much faster opponent. And part 3 has the most boring Stand usage in JoJo.

[@oyamampendu9467]

Thank you Manga reader for input till we anime onlys get animated these will still be the gripes we have

[@FFmaxxx]

@@copiumkiller i wouldnt say domains are easy. Megumi only can do a partial.. Most of the kids cant do it. Its only the adults and higher level curses who can

[@copiumkiller]

@@FFmaxxx As hobbyist game dev, satisfactory ultimates need "locks" (specific conditions). If domains had it, then I would see like in JoJo they effectively uses weak Stands (like part 4 lock).

[@FFmaxxx]

@@copiumkiller clearly their are levels to mastery of domain expansions. But its never been about who has the strongest but how effectively you can use it. While its a great tool its not even a ultimate game over thing.

[@AceKimiChan]

Just a small note; Megumi didn't bring Yuji back with the "power of friendship", he saw Yuji regaining control which is why he stopped attacking. Knowing that Yuji was about to die, he shared his way of life so that they'd not end their friendship on bad terms. It's a lot clearer in the manga, and a lot of anime watchers make that mistake.

[@sylph4252]

On the topic of subverting tropes, JJK is more in the business of making tropes make sense. Best example being that explaining your power in turn boosts it

[@sleepy_sensei3913]

14:27 "So anyway, a volcano, a cuttlefish, a gingerroot and a weeb walk into a bar" has to be one of my favourite jokes ever🤣🤣

[@wesley3447]

That "gingerroot" was my waifu. She had a name. She didn't even want to fight people but people destroy nature. She's fighting to protect what she loves. It's beautiful.

[@lgr28]

"Megumi" literally means "Blessing" which is incredibly important when you consider the fact that the Jujutsu sorcerers possess cursed energy, fight curses and become curses when they die wrong. Megumi's dad (who is an interesting figure in the manga to say the least) named him blessing essentially as a fuck you to the jujutsu society which is based on curses and cursed energy

[@BattleBooSally666]

Danny... Sir.... Please give us more of exactly this. You've undeniably become one of my favorite creators to watch. Thank you.

[@georgethehernandez]

God your commentary is bliss. And yes I want a pt 2.

[@sleepysera]

I was a bit worried going into this since I remember how frustrated you were during some of the reactions, but this was hilarious 😂 Can't wait for part 2, which should add at least another sea creature to the mix x)

[@l.raphaelnery7299]

personally I think the character's average motives add a sense of realism....it give them a sense that their just like most people on the surface and just go through their own hellish shit on their own time which sets them apart from the rest of society without overly doing it making them feel more real and add that philosophical air to it...but that's just me....but still great video...yes a part two would be awesome

[@CatDemon345]

"Yuji's not about to agree to something like that without a fight" head slice, commercial break. 🤦🏽‍♀️😂

[@kenetabansi5016]

I love the exploration of why all the theee main characters are there and doing this job. It’s subtle but it’s very interesting. Like yuuji is the typical hero and a protagonist he wants to save everyone, megumi only wants to save as many people as he can most of the time he is only willing to do as much as he can at that moment never more, except when he feels personally responsible for them like yuuji or they are his friends and family. And nobara only really cares about those she chooses to care about it’s very interesting they create an interesting dynamic because they span the whole hero spectrum

[@59slayer]

On episode 4 I was so hyped. I’ve never seen a main cast of characters get absolutely clapped so fast 😂 the moment the curse showed up between them I said it’s all over.

[@lobaku419]

The author actually was thinking about keeping Itadori dead but then later changed their mind, so you did nearly get what you wanted lol

[@samayamorris]

The brief Gojo and Jogo affair was HILARIOUS, I had to pause the video and let myself laugh for a sec geeeze.

[@lennarue2218]

Definitely need a Part 2! It would be really cool if you did a Reacts series or a Let Me Explain for Blue Exorcist!

[@DannyMotta]

I get that a ton!! I’d definitely be down

[@feldfos]

Please my dude. These anime explanations are genius! Keep making them, and keep being one of the only genuinely funny people I follow. Stay sassy

[@Cadence_Sterling64]

20:37 Domain Expansion reminds me, a little bit, of Terrain moves in Pokemon. Grassy Terrain increases the power of Grass Type moves and heals some pokemon at the end of the turn.

[@nat_could_be_here1629]

man he does it again. best commentary channel there is

[@gurglequeen433]

When this anime was first described to me, I was told a kid gained power by eating fingers. They did not specify or even mention Sykunna so I was under the impression this kid would just be eating nay fingers he could get his hands on.

This was awesome! Part 2 please!

[@victormagoco9752]

For those wondering what Gojo’s power is: put simply it’s spatial manipulation, but the exact mechanism of his attacks is a bit more complex and revolves around the concept of INFINITY, the “red laser” he uses for example, it’s not actually a laser, he’s creating an infinite amount of empty space in a particular direction to push his opponent away, his “barrier” is made by him messing with space around him so that those few inches around his body contain “infinite space” so things can get progressively closer to him without ever actually touching him, his other skills include attracting stuff in a particular direction(which he does by creating “infinite negative space”, similar to a vacuum sucking air because it’s empty), “teleportation”(which isn’t explained very well, but as I understand it involves messing with distance through spatial manipulation then launching yourself into a particular direction) and “Hollow Technique: Purple”(it’s his finishing move and basically creates a projectile with “infinite mass” that can bulldoze through anything it hits)

a part 2 of this would be very appreciated also its dumb but you were saying how yuji jumped into a third story window even though hes a normal high school student but i actually liked that yuji off rip no training was essentially superhuman it’s so stupid but in a way that i like it. they couldve microwaved a training session or some shit but they went with the dumber option that actually works so much better

[@tracey3706]

the best thing i love about watching your react vids is the way you express yourself...youre amazing :) your channel is my most fave reaction channel on youtube :D thank you for carrying on making these react vids :D i have seen jujutsu kaisen it was so hyped on tiktok that i had to watch it. i immediately loved sukuna.....whats not to love....the smirk, the attitude, the tattoos...gorgeous :D :D i didnt like yuji though i thought he was going to be annoying...but afew eppys in i realised he was a sweetheart :D nobara is such a badass :D :D shes awesome :D megumi just needs everyone to be extra loving & patient with him....he has trust issues :( the sweetheart. the face off against jogo & gojo was soooo good the action was awesome :D then when gojo took his blindfold off ....i fell in love :D :D those eyes :O :O :O though i do feel bad for gojo that he keeps everyone at arms length & doesnt let people get too close to him...though it was extra sweet he let down his guard & turned his limitless off just so yuji could hug him, was sooooooo sweet
