General & Others Jujutsu Kaisen - General Discussion

[Bepo]

Really interesting watch, but spoilers for anime onlys

jjk has more of a de-evolution in terms of art, it peaks around Yuji vs Mahito and becomes shit during the Zenin clan massacre.

De-evolution as Bepo said
Gojo, in the I'll win panel, looks like an aardvark

Did you watch the video?

Ya, it seems the mangaka lost his patience a bit and is rushing it a lot 😂

Gege wants to finish this and draw his Idol manga 🤣

It’s a pity, he had potential to make something worthwhile, but I guess we can’t grasp the pressures of giving a chapter each week.

Yep.

This was never a groundbreaking manga tbh, Gege is like a Dollar Store Togashi - pays attention to a complex powersystem & with narrative beats centred around societal critique. Togashi does this in a fictional universe, but Gege chose modern day Japan as his setting with a horror twist.

The similarities are also not surprising, JJK has dozens of references to HxH tbh. You could even say this entire manga itself is a homage to Togashi's way of storytelling from a fan (Gege Akutami).

I think he just wanted to do one vague "Battle Shounen" since he was a kid who read HxH and Bleach, I think he never expected the manga to be such a success, which he confirmed when he said he was preparing for the axe to happen anytime by the Death Womb Paintings arc.

I am not even sure if he would pick JJK as his favourite if he was asked to pick between JJk0 and Kamishiro Sousa/ Nikai Bongai Barabarujura

It was never a Passion Project, just him living out his teenage fantasies of "Writing a Reconstruction of Bleach" that he eventually got tired of.

In hindsight his main mistake will be the Timeskip and how it hurt reader investment in the characters

This is the reason I think everything will be resolved quickly after this Kenjaku focused chapters.

But he has pretty good teeth... Even heian era of sukuna. Unless he had them done. Maybe that's why he needed Kenny

How am i salty? I love JJK as a manga, but i acknowledge that Togashi is just superior lol.

Yorknew, Chimera Ant & Succession War Arcs are some of the best arcs ever written in manga.

Oh that short timeskip? Why do you dislike it? It’s whatever for me. I’m glad Sukuna and Gojo had time to prepare, and they took it gladly.

My fave is Geto - not Brainman, Geto

Followed by Sukuna and Yuji.
