Jujutsu Kaisen - I NEED more
Starting off with the right foot...
This anime is absolutely amazing and got me hooked from the first episode. I woke up thinking about this anime and went to bed thinking about it as well. And while there were a few minutes that didn't catch my attention to its fullest, the creators did an excellent job for the most part. There was always something happening and mystery revolved around it.
To start, I'd like to say I'm very recent to watching anime, and I was a little unsure whether to watch this one or not. I found the anime through a tweet posted by Valkyrae, a streamer, which made me want to watch it.
I don't want to spoil anything, so without going into much detail, I'd like to say it has some gory scenes, and it mentions the death of oneself and the execution of humans. Though this anime doesn't go into depth with it in this first season, it could still be triggering to someone, so be wary if you wish to watch it.
I highly recommend Jujutsu Kaisen.
However, as referred to in the previous paragraphs, themes such as gore, suicide, and death are very mild represented, but you should still be wary.
# Story 10/10
The story follows Itadori Yugi, a young boy who has a solid attachment to someone dear to him, which is his inspiration/fundament to do right by and save people.
But what happens when you can't even save yourself?
We can see a realistic portrayal of his struggles between doing the good or wrong through his dialogues and thoughts, facing many hard decisions.
One major decision could unleash an evil supernatural being, which can help or kill him.
# Art 10/10
My decision to rate this art a 10 goes through how dark the environment is when we see some real evil and the change of lightning when the characters are happy, or things are going well for them.
The 10 also drives from the outro of half of this season, which, combined with the song, gives me summer, chill, dancing vibes.
# Sound 8/10
There aren't very memorable songs apart from the intro and outro. The outro's song will be in your head even after days you've finished the anime.
# Chracters 8/10
The characters are very well written and fit inside the story quite nicely. Each of them has their own reason to act the way they do, which makes the story more interesting. Though, I hope we get to see more background story in future seasons.
# Enjoyment 10/10
There were very short minutes in this anime that were slow-paced, but those moments are not enough to not give this a 10.
# Overall 10/10
As soon as I finished the 1st season, I felt like rewatching it again because it was that good. I can understand why this is one of the top-rated anime this year, and you will understand too ;)
