Makes more sense when you notice how much Gege looks at Bleach for inspiration

[@jadenrobinson1561]

Further Explain

[@ianharrison5758]

⁠@@jadenrobinson1561JJK can be enjoyed as essentially just fire fights with a fast paced plot, or you can read into the subtext Gege gives us that underlines the themes, characterization and narrative of the story. One of the ideas spoken on in JJK is moral relativism. Is Mahito truly at fault for being what he is, especially considering how curses are made to begin with? Is Yuji a hero for recklessly eating a very dangerous cursed object that led to thousands of deaths bc of his will, intent and response or is he simply a person dealing with the consequences of his actions? Are sorcerers truly any better than curses when the higher ups send young teens to die from the comfort of an unspecified location, making decisions that cost lives they never see as more than tools to exploit? Another idea touched on is what does it mean to be the strongest, how does one achieve that status. How do you reach through the loneliness of absolute strength, and should you even choose to do so? Is it better to be selfish and care about nothing more than your own life and power? Or is it better to build up strong Ally’s to make changes 1 person never can, even the strongest person alive? Another idea touched on you can read into is Selfishness vs Selflessness. Not just between curses and sorcerers, but in sorcerer society itself. Being selfless led Nanami to a gruesome death, a kind man who sought to preserve the innocence of the children fighting beside him, and being selfish let Mei Mei escape shibuya and profit off of the coming chaos from the comfort of the very place nanami wanted to spend vacation at. I could go on but you get the idea, there’s a lot you can consider “that deep” if you wanna look into it

[@FirmlyGrasp_IT]

@@jadenrobinson1561 To add to what the other guy said. Death is a huge theme in JJK. JJK is about coming to terms with yourself and valuing yourself. Yuji's grandpa taught Yuji to respect others so that he can die surrounded by others on his deathbed. It is constantly said that no sorcerer dies without regrets in the series and that is because no sorcerer is able to take hold of their inner desires and accept themselves. The more you go through JJK the more you notice a fascinating trend. That trend is that the "selfish" people, which are often the villains, are constantly rewarded by the story. If you have a strong sense of self and understanding of what it is that makes you you, the world of JJK will reward you time and time again. You can do heinous shit like Sukuna, but if you have a strong sense of self, the narrative aligns with your ideals. On the flip side, the selfless are constantly punished over and over again. If you notice, the "good side" has almost never caught a real W and that maintains all the way through to where we are in the manga, barring one character. Perhaps the most interesting thing about JJK to me is that it is a postmodernist story, which means it has a ton and I mean a ton of meta themes all throughout the story. What Gege Akutami has managed to do with JJK is essentially blur the lines between fiction and reality. This may seem crazy and bullshit to some, but it absolutely holds validity within JJK. A postmodernist story is one that basically throws out the idea of fact or objective truth. The world of JJK seems simple, it's just japan and curses and sorcerers inhabit it right? Well the more you think about it and get to the root of what these characters represent, the more you realize that the world of JJK seems off, almost like it doesn't feel like a story, it almost feels real in a way, like you can't really imagine a human making something like this. Sukuna is the biggest example as to why JJK is a postmodernist story. Essentially, Gege has written Sukuna in a way that his character is completely immune to the readers perception or interpretation of him. When experiencing a story how you perceive a character is what that character becomes. Pretty much, the reader's mind defines the story and its world. Well, Sukuna is not under the control of the reader in this same way with how he's written. Your perception of Sukuna cannot define him in any way. Sure, you can have your thoughts about him, but it doesn't change who he is, similar to real person. Sukuna has an agency over himself and the world of JJK that I've never seen before and it goes beyond simply being strong. In a weird way Sukuna is above the story itself, the story bends the knee to Sukuna and serves him and does whatever Sukuna wants. The narrator herself doesn't even fully understand Sukuna. Sukuna is even above you, as the reader/watcher. Which is actually really weird, but also fascinating to think about. A really interesting idea that I've seen people discuss is that Sukuna isn't a fictional character made by Gege Akutami, moreso the Sukuna we see in JJK is the mythological legend "Ryomen Sukuna". This legend was grabbed and dropped within the pages of JJK and now that legend has free will to do whatever he wants with the characters and world Gege created. A video by Radman fully delves into this much better than I can in a youtube comment, but the video features HEAVY spoilers for the manga, so don't watch it if you not caught up. There's also the idea or theory that the narrator herself will play a role in the story because of the fact that the narrator within JJK is an unreliable narrator which is often seen with postmoderism.

Yeah, like even if I enjoyed the story, I wouldn’t know because I’ve been spoiled on like every big moment by manga readers, so at this point I sorta just watch it for the spectacle like Demon Slayer.

While the fights and action scenes aren’t as crazy or hype, the characters and the story the author wants to tell resonate a lot more with me and feel more special overall. JJK’s story and cast are solid, but the abilities and fights are like 85% of the appeal.

[@ShadowKryzis]

i thought i was the only person in the world to feel like this. I agree as well, the fights and character deaths are cool and all but I don't feel now way about them.

Ik it's too late for this but I do wanna clear up some things about Daima. Its only 2.5 original arcs in the manga after 5 years and it's not really that good. The amount of content that is out in the manga is about enough for 24 episodes or 6months of weekly content (JJK S2 for perspective) before they have to do another break for who knows how long. Daima exists to have something in between Super Hero and the next film. It's a web series and not a TV series meaning they have a little more freedom, behind the scenes the production staff is some of the best at Toei and the reasoning for them being kids is so they cant go crazy with the powers and have to actually fight with their hands. This show is going to be an animation flex full of fight scenes and new places we've never seen before. Toriyama was already a multi millionaire before he ever drew the first chapter of Dragon Ball, so he's definitely not doing it for the bag and moreso because he wants to tell a new story. so far everything he has worked closely on has been really good. Ik it's still gonna be people that aren't tryna hear all this and still gonna hate but it's gonna be live and dare I say better than the first season of super. Also Toriyama not writing the Super manga. He gives notes and Toyotaro takes them and makes his story based off it. That's why there was so many differences from the anime.

14:40 Nah, I know what big bro Tony is talking about. The semi toon force art style of the Pain fight was crazy looking. And it made literally no sense narratively as well as according to the rules of the universe. Gear Five Luffy channeling Toon Force as a power and a fighting style makes sense narratively AND according to the rules of the universe. It wasn’t a mistake, it was a choice and a decision that the creative crew made, implemented and executed. But even as I say that I feel like you can interpret the art style as a symbolic representation of the tonal shift in power scaling from that point forward in the series. Because it goes from magic wielding ninjas to magical giant chakra mech wearing super people with the power to throw meteors at each other that also sometimes use ninja tactics. It’s like watching a cartoon while living in a cartoon. Absolute insanity.

That pain episode has inspired so many young animators who's work we are watching in jjk today and many other anime shows, the hairy dude and anyone who thinks the animation in that Pain episode is bad are objectively wrong. The Sakuna vs Mohorage episode has very similar animation to the pain episode, where characters go out of model to show the chaotic insanity of the battle which happens a lot in the Sakuna v Mohorage episode as well. The Pain episode is the blueprint of this type of high scale destructive battles and how it should be done. It is simply artistic/stylistic animation that not all people can comprehend

[@Impkingj]

The reason Tengen’s fight had to come first is cus it shows how some hashira are on a different level. Like these two made light work of higher ranked kizuki cus they’re just like that

[@katon.9893]

14:51 People who talk about this scene never acknowledge the fact that pain is literally a rotting corpse being held up by sticks. He's a puppet, and so the animator - who is a legend in the scene by the way - animated him like a puppet. It's perfect.

[@WillGames215]

The person y’all talking about her death was instant the anime slowed it down for viewers and she had to be killed because not only was she a direct counter for mahito she was also a counter for geto since the ability attacks the soul similar to Yuji if you let them grow and get stronger they become a bigger problem for special grades

[@flockaveli15]

Actually they still debate in the manga if she’s actually dead. Something actual happens in manga to her and the characters never say she’s dead the same way they say nanami or zenin leader

@@Aloneinthesn0w I mean I’m not arguing her importance but I’m just saying I thought there was a panel where a character mentions working on her. And maybe something changed but last time I checked everytime she’s bright up they never mention her actually being dead like they do everyone else. But hey I could be wrong and maybe they actually admitted it but I’m just saying even with them going chapters without her they never truly confirmed it but again I could be wrong

[@aaronfrantz25]

@flockaveli15 Dawg, Chapter 144 is when Gege confirms that's shit, whenter we like it or not. Anime is gonna add more depth to Yuji but that's how I always took her death confirmation

Personally I liked it from the jump cuz I’m an artist to my core so I could appreciate SO many aspects of JoJo’s. Mark is for sure a boxing first anime guy if you pay attention N look at his fav animes. That’s honestly why he couldn’t get into JoJos cuz it focuses on its artistry first, story/world/character building including power sets second N actual fighting after that. If you pay attention to the reviews by fans N nonfans you’ll notice it’s either boring/something they just couldn’t get into or it’s top tier lol. Maybe it’s an acquired taste but I truly think JoJos is one of the best manga series ever.
