I love it when an anime goes out of its way to surpass the manga in terms of quality, making it the definitive way to experience the story. Mangas are such a special form of art (being a combination of multiple paintings) that achieving this is difficult, yet Jujutsu nailed it perfectly. I adore the manga already and this anime totally lived up to and surpassed the hype, just amazing

Definitely going to become a hit, like demon slayer or something. 3rd episode was kinda meh but oh my god. first and second were phenomenal. literally so good that this anime compelled me to create my first IMDB review.
Exciting As HELL

It's just so exciting. You just need to watch episode 1 to get pumped up over this. I highly recommend you to watch this. Everything is nearly perfect; the plot, characters, action scenes, EVERYTHING. It's not an anime that will make you regret it.
Damn it's good

Breathtaking anime!

What an amazing anime Jujutsu Kaisen is.
Studio Mappa with another magnificent job.
The animation is awesome, especially the fights look breathtaking.
So many great, loveable and fun characters with a very interesting story.
Can't wait for the film and hopefully season 2!

A SHONEN FULFILLING EVERY DEPARTMENT. ALMOST.

I don't know how to describe the perfection of this anime. Great Characters, One of the greatest OP and Ending theme. Three reasons to watch this anime.
1. Amazing Plot wid great animation
2. Great music wid great action sequences
3. Gojou Satoru
That's it.
Just lacking few emotional Strings. Overall, worth watching every single episodes.
An absolute blast

I'm not one to watch much anime nor one to "review" but this one in particular prompted me to do so. It had me hooked from the first episode then sold me completely by the 2nd. The animation, the fight scenes, the humor, both opening and closing songs, everything about it is just so so good. Highly recommend!
Anime legendary.

Shounen done right

There's a lot of predictable elements and cliché in the overall story design, but the form is awesome.
Characters, including the MC, are well written and occasional drop of motivation and backstory gives them decent depth. Power system has a lot of imagination in it and the tension that any character could die is good for the story telling.
MAPPA (the studio) have made great job putting the story into motion.

OVERRATED
heymantbhadu16 April 2021
Tbf i think it should be around 6-7 in ratings the characters are okayish and gojo is too overhyped, the plot and story are really generic nothing new all it has is good animation. I don't see why it deserves 8.7 rating when shows like Mr Robot and Monster are like 8.5 or 8.6 i watched it solely for the becoz of the ratings being 8.7 i expected it to be really good but it was dissapointing to find its just another shounen with nothing new personally I'll give it a 5-6 :)
Its not that good
werewolfpack5 May 2022
Honestly I cant rate this anime a 1 because the art and the fight scenes can be quite cool. But the plot/character development was VERY lackluster. I heard so many good things about this anime but every time I turned it on I was just disappointed.
GOING TO SAVE 2020!!!

Excellent.
danielapinedo-2403626 January 2021
Wow. I love the character development, the animation, the plot, it is definitely a promising anime.
It is incredible, I recommend it. From the first, second and third episodes I completely fell in love with this anime and each episode got more interesting. so far I am not disappointed.
A Good Shonen Take-off
rookescanor27 October 2020
Returning back to the Shonen genre, I wasn't disappointed. Jujutsu Kaisen shows potential and good promise from its initial episodes.
Hunting spirits/demons/evil things have been part of anime since times old, but that doesn't mean Jujutsu Kaisen is any way boring. Good execution of the story has kept me going through the episodes with eagerness to look forward to what's coming up. Along with instances of amazing action-animation sequences and decent characters, it is notable to appreciate the first opening and ending themes, having a nice taste of funk.
A pleasing and interesting start. I'm not surprised this anime is an adaptation of Weekly Shonen Jump. The magazine has often led to manga-adaptations that are worth giving a watch.
A good watch for Shonen-enthusiasts. Hasn't been disappointed as of yet. Looking forward to Jujutsu Kaisen during its run.

This is the best anime ive ever watched it my favorite. The animation is flawless and the plot is quite interesting. The plot has suspense but on the other hand it also has a lot of friendship which can make it boring but there are a few adult themes/jokes to make it better. And honestly it just keeps getting better the first few episodes were so good but i feel like the new one are going to be better i binged all the episodes in 1 day and now i wait for January 16th for the episode 14th. I would recommend this anime to almost anyone who's interested in anime as it includes a little bit of everything.
Another amazing story,

I DON'T GET IT
bakiokeee13 June 2021
This Anime is probably the most overrated I know. Maybe it got some good animations and fights but this doesn't make the anime great. The characters are not interesting and the Anime itself is kinda boring. I don't get the hype...
The epitome of mediocrity
Bbeni1110 June 2022
Have you ever seen an anime where everything about it seems just fine but you very quickly realize that what you're watching has absolutely no soul whatsoever?
Where all characters are cliché archetypes you've seen a thousand times before in better media, and the creators still failed to improve them in any way?
If that is your thing look no further: There is main character whose only quality is 'good' and is strong for no reason. There are spirits/demons who are 'bad'. They fight. There is mentor who is 'cool'. There is magic system which makes no sense and got no actual rules of what's possible. There is a bad guy who laughs as he kills people. There is a girl sidekick who gets angry all the time... and so on
This is the kind of thing that could only satisfy someone who started consuming media probably 6 month prior to encountering this. But hey, there are more than 130 million babies born each year, so i guess studios can just keep making this stuff as there will always be people finding it original/interesting.

Ok so far i have watched 2 episodes and they did what they were supposed to do
1. capture the watcher's attention - great animation and shows the protagonist's purpose
2.set a pace - the pace is so perfect it is almost satisfying
3. i don't wanna compare anything herw but to be honest it is so going to be better than god of high school because it lives up to the hype and it is those underrated animes that don't come in people's attention much but end up blowing away the audience
Jujutsu Kaisen review
iamanoob011 June 2021
A fun and entertaining show. The animation is gorgeous. The fighting is top notch. And the cast of characters has so many standouts. Overall it's a really great show and I recommend it to you if you like a good action anime.
Now coming back from the second season - everything is ramped up and it was perfect. Holy, the fights and the fights and the other fights, this top tier anime right here.

If it continues like this, in my top 3 list.
lanycera28 November 2020
On episode 9. So far, I have nothing to criticise: The protagonist is great, and all other characters extremely likeable and interesting. The story so far has been amazing and is well-written. The animation is top-notch, typical mappa!
I'd go as far and say it's slightly ahead of kimetsu no yaiba / Demon Slayer and Attack on Titan. I just hope it keeps up with the quality and doesn't decline like other animes did with ongoing seasons.
Give it a go, you won't be disappointed!
