You know the scary thing is that this is probably the most realistic way the fight would be seen, no fancy music, no commentary, everything gets destroyed like it was hit with a nuke.
Well the first time when it was released in the series, not everyone liked it and their was huge controversy on social media about the fight, about how the animator’s didn’t make a good job with animating this whole fight scene, but then later someone uploaded a Blue-Ray version of it on Twitter (X). I have watched the whole fight, but I don’t know where to watch the whole fight again.
You are right, sukuna's domain works like a nuke. It spreads the dust to create a chain reaction with the use of furnace and it also has a perfect circle impact similar to any nuke.
That one creepy curse from Chapter 209 may look fodder to Jujutsu Sorcerers but insanely scary in front of civilians. This implies that Jujutsu Sorcerers are a whole other level compared to the fear and fragility of normal humans lol.
The sound design is made based on what the director requests, if this scene is not done this way in the anime it is because instead we have the excellent OST telling us more about Sukuna than his attack.
HOLY SHIT This scene was entirely transformed just from the SFX redesign. The eerie silence then accompanied by the natural, un-bass boosted apocalyptic sounds of Malevolent Shrine literally sent shivers. Nothing but the otherworldly screams from victims of the devourer of gods.
What I really have to point out in your sound design is, that every layer is clearly audible and "not just bass boosted". You feel the threat that radiates from Sukuna and the little pause at 00:58 with the reverb really made everything after even more impactful. Great job!
@@waffler-yz3gw idkd who did the subtitles for crunchyroll but they were really tripping. if they wanted to make it a distinct domain it could´ve been Malevolent Temple, but nope, Sukuna´s cooking apparently
That was a massive spoiler that they slipped because by the anime time nobody knew Sukuna's ability but on the Manga was revealed that his ability is literally cooking, he cuts then put the meal in the oven if you don't read the manga you could guess easily
@@mr.absolute8556 There's a lengthy explanation online why "kitchen" better describes the meaning of the japanese word, than shrine or temple. In the heian period there was a special building at the emperor's palace where they'd prepare the emperor's meals. It wasnt an ordinary kitchen, since the food prepared was for a "divine being" (the emperor). TLDR "malevolent temple/shrine" is where evil gets worshipped, malevolent "kitchen" is where the evil "cooks" i.e. originates from. Which is why Sukuna's abilities (paraphrasing) are "slice, dice, and roast".
0:49 reminds me of King Crimson's sound effect. the deep bass and grungy horns, the material distortion, the universe tearing itself from the seams, and then the quiet before the chaos. very eerie and horrifying.
It is a difficult dilemma, on the one hand music can enhance the feeling of a scene x10 if used well but on the other hand you have to have the sound effects support everything that happens without music which as you said is more immersive but the effects sound are not so good, the scene will lose impact and I think this is the main reason why this does not happen very often, not only in anime but also in movies, series or video games, they will always play it safe by playing music instead of gambling. for the sound effects.
It really depends because it could be a slippery slope.....but if it's done well, it can elevate a scene, a good example would be the battle between paul atreides and feyd rauda in dune 2
I think the magic of the no music in fights comes from the fact that we are accustomed to fight scenes having intense music to elevate what we are seeing. It is sort of new or a surprise to our ears to only hear the raw sound effects carry the moment. I think having more no music in fights would ruin the magic of it, I think it deserves to belong in scenes where it makes sense to use it or really important fight scenes. Case in point: Hisoka vs. Gon in heaven’s arena.
The way the sounds of consecutive slashes circles around you when wearing headphones makes the domain actually sounds like its cutting everything around it into a million pieces until nothing but dust remains. Absolutely peak.
This and the naruto vs. sasuke final battle are prime examples of how not every action scene needs OST. The action choreography and sfx have much more room to breathe now and go from something hype to downright bone chilling. Hats off to you job well done.
nobody talked abt how scary the cuts sounded like in background, sounded like ghosts were getting killed and killed and more cuts can be heard in between... So scary.
This was VERY well done. The sound design in this perfectly matched the visuals and even aided them. Once you lose focus of the sound and watch the visuals, you've mastered the feeling of the animation. Fantastic work!
The booming, almost battle/cargo ship-like horn when the domain is cast is something that i actually enjoy so much. It is imposing, loud and absolute. It demands your attention, and it gives off this sense of something colossal due to it's association with ships that are usually massive in nature. Like a herald, bringing the attention to who you should look towards in his shrine, Sukuna himself. Before he minces you into a trillion different incoherent, bloody pieces, that is.
Imagine being a pure innocent soul staring at a 9"8 big white man with no eyes fighting a guy who has the whole oceans worth of ink tattooed on his body
1:15 i like how you can see sukuna actually scared for a moment because of mahoraga literally walking through his domain expansion like it’s just the wind
He's not scared, he is surprised that Mahoraga had already adapted to his Domain Expansion, that's when Sukuna decided to switch to Fire Arrow to complete vaporize Mahoraga with an single attack. The only time Sukuna felt uneasy in his entire life (not scared, but nervous) was against Gojo. The narrator even says "The first time the King of Curses felt uneasy in more than an thousand years."
I think this style of sound design is perfect for the show. My greatest love for this project being the lack of music in the background. Instead of feeling like a cinematic performance, it feels more real and tangible like watching powerful animals fighting to the death on a documentary. The dedication to having this fight feel like a privilege to witness instead of a spectacle to be entertained by gives a tear-jerking level of respect for the audience. Thank you for making this video, my dude. Please keep it up. Edit: ImportMaple, if you’re reading this, consider doing a sound redesign of Aki vs. Katana Man from Chainsaw Man. I’m sure you’d have a lot of fun with that project. No matter what you post, I’m keeping the bell notification on for you.👍
I love your sound design and have kept up with listening to this since your bleach video! Your capturing of the essence in environments is really amazing and the fx work on the characters when they announce their actions were a highlight! I do want to make one comment if I can for future reference: to have more growth and change of tambre in sounds as environmental effects get amplified. This has been the hardest for be as well in my own work as there are limitations to how much a sound can be distorted or changed during the edit, but when it finally does meld, that small change in tone creates beautiful turns in tension and weight. Really love your stuff. Cant wait to keep listening to more of your growing works!
Transformed an Epic Anime Shonen Clash to a cinematic horror, this isn't a fight it's TOTAL CARNAGE which is how it should be. This is a domain thats a portable thermonuclear weapon and the sfx does it justice so well. Edit: I just LOVE how its not bass boosted loud noise, each slash can be distungished and is only loud because so many of them pile onto eachother.
0:51 he he heeeeeeee he he he heeeeeee Ryoiki tenkai fukuma mizushi. It's unlike other domains. It doesn't create a separate space with a barrier or close the barrier, but makes the innate Domain visible. It's like not using a canvas, but rather painting directly in the sky. A truly Divine Technique."
Guys, hear this with headphones, like the ones you put over your whole ear, wow it sounds AMAZING The silence right before Mahoraga gets obliterated during the domain, that's awesome Sorry, also after Fuga as well. Ugh, FREAKING AWESOME!!!!

Nah the music was insane itself it made the final scenes even cooler
JJK is absolutely terrifying fron the civilians pov

@@kinglettergiletpanaguiton6129 Yeah that's why gojo said back in season 1 that you needed to be crazy to be a sorcerer
Look on the bright side, you might not have time to be scared if you're dead
0:51 that dull horn sound is perfect for the domain my goodness. I wish the whole show was designed like this
Couldn't agree more the horn reminds you that your about to deal with something awful
@@oumardiakite5005shades of the trumpets from Owari no Seraph
Sounds like a gigantic piece of steel "creaking", I love it.
Go watch fire force and I think you’ll be happy lol
@@guidedvisionsmedia JoJo, Sidonia no Kishi, Yozakura Quartet and most Fate series as well.
You can feel the animation with these sounds! Anime studios should really put more emphasis on sound desing as it gives life to the animation!
And they should hire this individual fr

@@Jiggonomics nah keep MAPPA away from this guy
@@alan_7390facts that’s why when Naruto fights have no ost the sfx gets a bump in in quality
Watch jjba it has great Sfx
HOLY SHIT This scene was entirely transformed just from the SFX redesign. The eerie silence then accompanied by the natural, un-bass boosted apocalyptic sounds of Malevolent Shrine literally sent shivers. Nothing but the otherworldly screams from victims of the devourer of gods.
It was crazy before but the sounds from this video add such a powerful creepy layer to it.
@@nathansmedley2061yeah I'd love to hear a re-mix of the remix w/music added back but in a slower time signature. Fuckin' crazy
the term "devourer of gods" genuinly gives me PTSD flashbacks
This really makes you feel the horror of the moment.

Not always but sometimes for real
1:07 Pov: The math teacher after the school evacuated because of sukuna's domain
Nah, I'd teach.
I love this. It sounds like sukuna’s domain is unholy.
Its literally called a malevolent shrive bruv, wdy expect?
Ur at 236 likes lol
Imagine watching this on IMAX
i watched this while on toilet
Bro we warned you, you have to hide from Mappa and their working conditions
1:48 has to be my favorite moment, it’s so extremely punchy
1:46 that FUGA hit harf
The way the sounds of consecutive slashes circles around you when wearing headphones makes the domain actually sounds like its cutting everything around it into a million pieces until nothing but dust remains. Absolutely peak.
The goat of sound design is back with another masterpiece!
Bro cooked at least as hard as Fuga did.
And that Fuga explosion felt like a truck hit you, as it should.
0:52 that low bellow of a bull captures the feeling of the impending doom perfectly I got goosebumps
It sounds quite eerie, like a horrific ritual is being put on display and it fits the fight so perfectly. 👌
This and the naruto vs. sasuke final battle are prime examples of how not every action scene needs OST. The action choreography and sfx have much more room to breathe now and go from something hype to downright bone chilling. Hats off to you job well done.
And obito vs kakashi or when pain vs 9tails Naruto is prime of example on when to use ost
@@R3blue heavy agree I hope more series use them as an example
nobody talked abt how scary the cuts sounded like in background, sounded like ghosts were getting killed and killed and more cuts can be heard in between... So scary.
Gosh I wish more anime studios would upgrade their sound effects. Makes everything so much more cinematic, holy smokes.
This is beautiful. You’ve changed the entire atmosphere 😭
this is the typa sound design you find in cinemas and movies (only)
This is dune level sfx right here, I've kinda been sleeping on you ngl, this is crazy
When sound truly makes you FEEL.
While I honestly love JJK's actual sound design for Sukuna's slices, I do ADORE the fact that you have them actually making slicing sounds here.
This was VERY well done. The sound design in this perfectly matched the visuals and even aided them. Once you lose focus of the sound and watch the visuals, you've mastered the feeling of the animation. Fantastic work!
the roar that the weird mouth thing(???) in malevolent shrine makes sounds straight outta subnautica and i love it
this is unironically the very first sound re-design video I have seen/heard that improved on the original
this seems like an opening cinematic to start off an episode now, and my god that is cool as hell
Bro made Fukushima look like a firecracker
as much as i love the theme that played in the actual fight, this gives it so much more depth
That foghorn with his domain expansion was such a great addition
That was incredible, the sounds feel so real 🔥
I just love the skull bull sounds the slices, screams in the backgrounds, this is absolute peak content

Stand proud, you cooked a masterpiece of sound design
juicy sound design as always. love it
The fuga at the end is incredible.
With such a good sound design it really felt like watching the scene for the first time again.
Imagine being a pure innocent soul staring at a 9"8 big white man with no eyes fighting a guy who has the whole oceans worth of ink tattooed on his body
This is on another level !! Your version just made the most impact of what it feels like when sukuna opens his domain.
I genuinely appreciate your work. Thank you so much
This is the best sound redesign video I’ve seen so far
this is your best work so far
This with that theme song behind it would have me convulsing on the couch in pleasure
The final arc will be so difficult to animate. I hope they take their time.
It's mappa known to have not really good deadline and overworked and underpaid
FANTASTIC JOB!

This is video is 1:21 ABSOLUTE CINEMA
This is so well done, wow!
this is a lot better than base-boosted sound re-designs across youtube
YOOOO this straight up feels like a theatrical release. I really love the silence of it, no music, just straight up destruction.
Отличный редизайн звука, это больше похоже на фильм и реальный мир
Incredibly impressive work. I don't say this lightly, but well bloody done!
Bro this is insane
this is so much better. not that the OG version is bad but this takes it on a different level. good job bruv
oh my god simple concentration of some fruit ninja slices can make scene so better
Fights like this always hit different. It's like the Naruto vs Sasuke final fight where it was just the sound of the battle, so so good.

Very cool🔥 Great job man, keep it up!
I liked how this redesign made the domain act like a nuke
Because canonically, it was a nuke💀
Let dont even talk about Open it literally when the nuke finally touch the ground
my biggest sound design inspo fr
Pure power demonstration. You can actually feel it, the calm but raw control.
this is amazing keep it up man
amazing work! Felt like I was watching Bleach for a moment
I don’t think I ever realized how good the animation is. Also these sounds give me a feeling while I watch this
when i hear ur sound redesign I subbed
dayum bro these sounds are staight out of a high quality movie
Im your 10,000 subscriber and this is beyond fascinating. Exceptional work.
You are loved
Thanks, a redesign which isnt just unnecessary bass
How can they even top this for the next Seasons? Not even Gojo vs Sukuna was this insane.
dont let mappa catch lil bro ☠🙏
The dread you feel when it doesnt have the commentary makes it look like a found footage of a nuke bombing.
Tbh sound designs in the show does a great job depsite a$$ schedule
Awesome sound design. So good that the video needs to be perfect too, no subtitles to distract from the audiovisual experience.
Unbelievable, keep up the good work ❤️
Is this so GOOD! 🎉
Just badass. Good work!
A studio has to Employ you Asap Damn 🔥
Guys, hear this with headphones, like the ones you put over your whole ear, wow it sounds AMAZING
The silence right before Mahoraga gets obliterated during the domain, that's awesome
Sorry, also after Fuga as well. Ugh, FREAKING AWESOME!!!!
wow, absolutely incredible!
YOU JUST MADE JJK 10x BETTER OMG
I love the detail on how he figured it out last second how to beat him
This is an absolute masterpiece!
This was artistic as hell
