Yujis voice actor is objectively one of the most underrated ones I’ve ever seen, even at the very start he was putting his whole soul into it. The main reason I can never watch the dub isn’t even cause it’s bad, it’s just cause the sub va for yuji puts so many lil extra details or tones that just fit him perfectly 🙏 Itadori Yuji been the goat since day 1 🦦
As good as yujis VA is, Sukunas is even better
@@jakee2094of course sukuna voice is awesome is the same as grimmjow
Mahito va💀
Dub is great tho, one of the best I've heard.
Nanami VA going hard too
The "inner demon" trope is done really well in this show and not like most other shonen in that regard. Like a lot of others have said JJK starts off similarly to other battle shonen, but quickly differentiates itself imo which is why it's gotten as popular as it has.
Its funny cause I think a lot of the problems it has now is because it starts out as a typical shonen anime then tries to differentiate itself
@@assegai7055 the sudden you-know-what's are crazy, but I say they help the character development. Yuji's worth it imo
Since you love Bleach, JJK is definitely the right anime for you. I can tell you were paying close attention to the plot already which is great. The author doesn't like to repeat info but everything is connected, so if you watch passively you'll easily get lost.
I'm surprised you didn't recognize Grimmjow's voice though when Sukuna took over Yuji's body! 😂
Thank you! Honestly I was so overwhelmed and then stunned by the visuals that it completely passed by my ears 😂 but I absolutely hear it now! They couldn’t have picked a BETTER VA actor for Sukuna! Incredible 🤩🩷
so thats why grimjob sounded familiar but i could not put where i heard his voice... haha ty for the info
@@nestor11811Ha Grimjob
Season 1 is alright, but season 2 is an absolute masterpiece, one of the best pieces of media I have EVER consumed. The payoff is gigantic, I hope you'll enjoy ❤
Season 1 is also FIRE
Talking about S1 being Alr but it literally holds some of the best fights and moments, I can’t even say to much without spoiling
Season 1 is nothing but fire. Season 2 is generational
Bro said consumed💀
@@SkullzOfficial-YTBro pointed out someone saying "consumed media" 💀 ☠
Oh don't worry. Keep comparing it to bleach. Massive JJK fans are almost all massive Bleach fans. It really is just this generation's bleach, the "darker, edgier" counterpart to things like Demon Slayer, while still taking itself seriously and not just being a parody of the genre. It also completely wears its influences on its sleeve and isn't afraid to reference and nod to what came before, ands yeah, that's often Bleach.
“I wanna fall in love with new characters” this finna age wonderfully, whilst watching jjk
😂😅 oh man lol
No spoilers obviously, but season 1 is some solid shonen, a lot of world building and fun characters. Once you get further into the series and a lot of setup is out the way, the story starts picking up and starts to shine
I have to disagree, this show is a diamond from start to end...err present
@@nastynapes xD
Litterally every time i hear his grandfather say, when you die you should have people around. Dont be like me.. i want to cry my eyes out
What a "curse" to leave behind.
This is the first video of yours I’m seeing, probably because I love this show! Season 2, which as you mentioned is currently ongoing, is a BANGER.
Hey!! Thanks for being here and welcome! 😍😍 I’m very excited for this show 🔥👀
Excellent choice to watch, without a doubt this anime will mark a before and after in terms of animation, I have not been so hyped by an anime since Naruto, especially the second season.
Hi shishou i love your videos
@@Ellie-Swan Hi🙂
Season 1 was absolutely fire but season 2 is a literal cinematic masterpiece
I just discovered your channel today. Coincidentally, Bleach is also my favorite of the old Big Three and JJK is my favorite of the new Dark Trio. Actually JJK is my favorite of the modern shounens. Glad to see you trying this show out.
Hey thank you! I’m happy to have you here and appreciate the comment! 💜
What is considered the new dark trio?
I’m currently watching Naruto for the first time and it’s so much better than I expected. Bleach will always be my favorite and close to my heart lol but yeah I’m really loving JJK so far 🔥 I feel like.. I’m about to go on a crazy ride
@@FlexiejayAnime The Dark Trio is JJK, Chainsaw Man, and Hell's Paradise. They are called that as a purposeful callback to the OG Big Three. I have seen all of Naruto, I watched some of One Piece, but like you I thought it looked weird and I stopped. Bleach is still the best :)
@@markgregorygacosta531 No it's always Hell's Paradise as the 3rd and not Demon Slayer
@@spectreharlequinnah what you talking about is new gen gen trio but animes you were talking about is new dark gen basicly darker than normal shounen but my favorite will be seinen trio which will be Vegabond,berserk,vinlandsaga basicly seinen means adult shounen that priorities story and more mature things majorly
watching this youtube video, gave me so much nostalgia when i first started😭 You're going to go in for a treat, hope you enjoy the show! just beware of all the spoilers!
Thank you!! 😍
listening to Megumi saying "i'll punch you" to Gojo when we know he phisically can't do that was hilarious.😂
but he can still disrespecting him😊
Yeah 😂😂😂
seeing how Megumi hands when Yuji ate the finger is crazy looking back.
Seeing Megumi do *the thing* for Yuji is kinda wild
😂
Big raga the opp stopper 🦅🦅🦅🦅
That kid is crazy he was gonna drop that on so many weak curses
@@brentondewar1347 it's because he was weaker than them all. Todo's the most shocking one to me lmao
@@brentondewar1347 he wasn't tho, it was Sukuna, the detention center special grade, Todo, and the special grade under the bridge. What weak curse did he try to use it against?
It's sooooo GREAT. You are in for a real treat when you dive more into the story of the show. No spoilers from me and you made a really great choice. Enjoy. :)
I love JJK. It's amazing. I own the first season on Blu-ray. And I have four JJK anime statues.
6:00 that is so true bleach definitely inspired the most of new gens including jjk, csm, mha, demon slayer, black clover and many more
so funny enough why jjk has a lot in similar with bleach is cause they're both based off of heian period and edo period buddhism. jjk is rooted heavily in buddhist practices while bleach takes inspiration from Buddhism
For example, if you don't like worm , the negative energy of your reaction gonna create a curse that take form of a Worm. In Japan (in this Anime), a lot of negative energy exist and that create many kind of Curse. Even Earth Curse/ Human Curse / volcano Curse etc...
welcome to the most wholesome anime ever🙂
Yeah "wholesome" cough* cough* geto,nanami,nobara,junpei,megumi, and Gojo
@@modestoguevara7655cough cough choso and higuruma
I love your reaction and your comments about bleach! I've been a mayor beach fan since it first aired and yes! Everything you said is exactly what I thought! Jjk is obviously not bleach and the story goes mental moving forward but during the first couple of episodes I literally saw lots of bleach inspired scenes and stories! Awesome reaction 👍
🔥🔥🔥The First Episode 1 I'm excited for you Grimmjow's voice is here
I CANT BELIEVE IT! I’m obsessed the Grimmjow crossover with the VA actor… it’s perfect. I didn’t notice in this video cause I was legit in shock and processing lol but I can totally hear it now! 😍 Obsessed
Feel like a lot of anime fans do this but a lot of this stuff is just mythology and Japanese culture rather it being based off of Bleach. Like Naruto for example, people see the hand signs and the nine tails and think any show that does that is copying Naruto. But really the Gumiho and all that ninja stuff isn't new. I mean you got Ninja Scroll and Basilisk is pretty much Naruto but more serious and I'm pretty sure both predate it. The whole Gumiho thing isn't even related to just Japan and isn't the only fox demon thing. Feel like it's the same with the spirit thing. Really to me the only things that are similar are the concept of spirit hunting and the fact there are spirits. Also some character tropes now that I think about it. Some of the looks for characters are kind of common stereotypes. like in America cops in movies tend to have that cop moustache and wear aviators and that wide brim hat. Same thing really.
Not saying these shows don't have unique stuff just they have inspirations different than what ppl tend to think.
Awesome review flexxy❤️
Btw love your pitch black sweater
Megumi being like, "With this treasure I summon"
When you called the finger seal a blunt wrap, I had to like. 😂😂11:33
😏😎
The author Gege Akutami, author of jujutsu kaisen, was inspired by several works: naruto, Evangelion, Bleach. Yu Yu hakusho and HunterxHunter are his main base. Bleach is inspired by Yu Yu hakusho. The author Yushihiro Togashi is a genius, he created concepts that many other authors use. Gege also draws a lot of inspiration from Japanese mythology.
The main JJK inspiration IS Bleach
Bleach is inspired by Saint Seiya and Dragon Ball
Togashi was inspired by Jojo
@@Crizalid2011 Hunter X Hunter and Bleach are both his main 2 inspirations, idk why everyone wants it to just be Bleach, Gege has said on multiple occasions those are his 2 biggest inspirations.
He obviously drew from some other things that he likes, just saying I don't think there needs to be "only one" main inspiration when he talks about having 2
@@solacee4327 I said the "main" inspiration, not the "only" inspiration. The Bleach part in JJK is bigger than the HxH part or the Naruto part.
@@Crizalid2011 I'm saying Gege has equally talked about being inspired by HxH and Bleach. Naruto is a non-factor, he's never talked about it inspiring him. The one time he was asked about it he redirected again to the fact that HxH and Bleach were his bigger influences
You should definitely watch the jjk 0 movie between season 1 and 2 because you'll be lost on a lot of things if you don't!
As you are a Bleach fan, a curiosity... The voice actor for Sukuna (the curse that Itadori ate), is the same as Grimmjow.
That is SO COOL! I love that, and didn’t notice my first watch because I was processing everything else 😂 how amazing.
Yeah, JJK definitely reminds me of Bleach and how Yuji wants to protect like Ichigoat
I love bleach, but JJK in season 2 is already WAY better written and animated than bleach. granted we wouldnt have it if it werent for the big 3 and togashi ect. but you are in for the feels of a lifetime
I think the curses and barriers actually is more similar to the Night beyond tricornered Window by Tomoko Yamashita, an author whose works Gege also liked. The horror elements and emotional beats of that manga is really good
Generally speaking the JJK community is pretty good at accepting that Bleach is an obvious influence.
It’s pretty stupid to deny it but Gege makes many decisions that make JJK it’s own.
That’s awesome to hear that the JJK community is aware of it and accepting of it 🩷 I can’t wait to dive deeper into the story Gege has created 😍
The voice actor for Sukuna is Grimmjow's voice actor
Finally !! The show is AMAZING . All you have to do is pay attention to details hence they are very important for the future plot twists !
Enjoy ! Welcome to the FANDOM .
You can always ask fans to explain certain aspects of techniques or abilities , we are always happy to provide information to our new fandom members .
P.S. I am a huge Bleach fan too and believe me they have a lot in common , the thing here is that mc ain’t the strongest (at least for now) and that the plot is a little more cruel …
Demon Slayer , Jujutsu Kaisen , Chainsaw Man are the biggest modern shonen anime.
They are must watch shows.
Along with upcoming shonen in 2024 like Solo Levelling, Kaiju No 8 , Dandadan etc . are also gonna be very popular.
So do check them out.
Thank you!
this show is hype right now and it's one of my favorite, hope you enjoy
This is the start of a great journey
It’s a great show and we’ll written. Definitely not your typical shonen anime. It’s definitely it’s own thing the farther you get into it. Honestly, it gets better and better over time.
Shonen no is a genre, battle shounen is tho
sorry my english
@@jorgemurilo6456 Sé que el shonen no es un género. Dije shonen porque es dirigido a un público más joven, a diferencia del seinen que es dirigido a un público adulto.
Also, you’re English is completely fine😁
So exciting to see people newly get into this series! Though I do caution you to be careful of spoilers bc the community is pretty bad about spoiling things🥲. Hope you enjoy the show! :D
This show is the result if Naruto and Bleach had a night of passion, the more you watch the more youll see the similarities with both shows. Its still a really good show. Nice reaction! 😁
And if it had a cool uncle like HxH
Feel like that's just seeing shonen at that point. I mean a lot of that stuff people recognize in Bleach and Naruto is just Japanese mythology and shonen tropes.
This show is incredible, the first season just the beginning to what the actual story is, it’s very much it’s own thing but that doesn’t fully get realized until the moment season 2 starts since that’s where the story goes into the reality of the story 🦦
I also started JJK because I heard that author loved Bleach and was friends with Kubo. So glad I decided to check it out.
Fellow bleach fan here. And tell you what,everyone that i have seen who is a fan of bleach love JJK.
Best new gen shonen currently in many people's pov and i agree as well.
If someone hasn't mentioned it yet Sukuna is the same voice actor as Grimmjow
You're gonna enjoy a lot of the similarities to bleach. But! Don't get too hung up on them, if you apply the rules of the Bleach-verse to this world you're gonna end up confused at times.
Thank you for this comment! I appreciate it. Yes lol I was really surprised watching this first episode. I’m going to really have to separate it and make sure I focus on it as its own thing. Thanks for engaging in my content 😄🩵 I’m really excited to finally start JJK!
Crazy what sukuna meant when he said he could've been killed before... I just realized what megumi was about to do. Gege was cooking since the very beginning.
You know hwo this UA-camr reminds me alot with her face? She looks exactly like Hange Zoë from Attack on titan, if she had darker hair and glasses it would be 100% fit cosplay.
Oh you're gonna love this one!
You are gonna love it when you find about yuji's parents in season 3 when the anime drops
"This better be good!"
Oh yes, chaotic good!!!!!!!!
One of the best-selling manga in the world right now. You're in for a good ride!
Season 2 is peak, and its highs eclipse season 1’s highs several times over, but it has some underlying production issues that will boil your blood if you research it. There was some missed potential in season 2 as a result, but with only two episodes left in the season as of typing this, it’s safe to say that season 2 was still incredible as a whole.
oh its gonna be good for sure
i feel like everything makes more sense when you rewatch
Bleach is one of my favorites.. But it's nothing like bleach once you get into it.. I like JJK because of its originality.. It's humorous yet dark a grim at the same time.. You'll love it..
Yep, I wonder if the people that keep saying "it's so much like Bleach" have really watched any other anime.
bro said keep that blunt closed 😭😭😭
Welcome to JJK world!
Spot on with the bleach similarities, its the reason I love this show since bleach was my old fav anime. This anime just gets better, you will see!
me, casually re-watching it all from the beginning again: 🐱
Bro the compairson of JJK to Bleach is an HONOR!!! Bleach has solidified it's place among the Big 3. It's a titan of anime. I think it's awesome that JJK took inspiration from Bleach. It's cool to see those concepts explored in a different light.
I discovered your channel literally 20 min ago, and after watching this vid i think this series is gonna be an amazing one. Coincidentally Bleach is also my favorite anime oat with jjk being a close first too. I love both of them so much and i think you will too. Have a great journey as you get to know these characters because they story is a masterpiece. 🙏❤
Hey! Thank you so much, that’s awesome, yesss I’m really enjoying it so far, and welcome! 🔥😄
@@FlexiejayAnime No Problem! I hope you have an amazing time watching this show!
gonna say it, no hate to bleach but jjk is what I wish bleach had been. Bleach was entertaining asf and I loved watching it, but the lack of story cohesion and planning always nagged at me, jjk took what bleach lacked and fixed it
You know, I can understand this point. Maybe if Bleach was made now it would also be different. It was a definitely a different time when the big 3 were being created.
peak show also love the background alot W ichigo
This is a case where I prefer the anime, when it comes to the start of the story. To me it feels very rushed in the manga. The anime makes it flow a lot better
Bleach and JJK was inspired by Yu yu Hakusho.
6:14 yes I agree with you.
ok im loving this. subbed :D
Also a question, have you decided what to watch after this one? if you havent yet, I have couple recommendations. Ok, lets see, we got, Scissors Seven, Demon Slayer, Hells Paradise, Mob Psycho 100, Overlord. these are the first that comes to my mind at the moment. I do recommend Demon Slayer because its not that long and not too confusing like some other anime. Scissors Seven is really humorous, so I recommend that if you like funny things. I gotta say it again, I loved the reaction! looking forward to next ones 😁😄
Ah thank you so much! Welcome on my anime journey! Haha 😄💞 and thank you so much for all the recommendations this is awesome 👏🏼
Subscribing especially for your jjk journey ❤️
I hope you enjoy the series :)
I didn't see the video yet but u have the goat in posters behind u so iam automatically subscribing ❤
Omg! ICHIGOAT? YES ❤️🔥 thank you and welcome! 😉🔥
@@FlexiejayAnime best main character currently for me ❤️ can't wait for u to see more jjk tho
I'm just an anime watcher, and you, my friend, do not know what you are walking into. My god.
Oh man, I forgot that Megumi almost pulled out that guy in the first episode, that would've been a waste.
All I’ll say is this show has the best second season of all time of any show.
So, I’m going to try my best to give a brief explanation (PLEASE hardcore JJK fans, give me a break if I butchered some of the info) to how cursed works and what it is. Trust me, it’s a complex power system that is very hard to explain to someone. Since I only watch the anime, my knowledge on it isn’t as deep as those who read the manga. I won’t add any spoilers.
To explain the power system, what I’ve gotten from the show is that cursed energy comes from the stigma of negative emotions of humans (obviously lol). Cursed energy is a form of negative energy and can be used to enhance the physical abilities of humans and Cursed Spirits, such as durability, strength, and speed. They also give birth to cursed spirits, which have a soul so it can be assumed that the soul and cursed energy are connected.
I don’t know if people would consider this a spoiler so *SPOILER* Reversed Cursed Energy and Technique. This form of cursed energy is the result of multiplying the negative cursed energy against itself to produce positive energy and the base power reverse cursed techniques will always be 2x as potent due to this multiplication. Imagine that you use a cursed technique or just cursed energy with its base power being expressed by -2 (since it’s negative energy). If you use your reverse cursed technique or just reverse cursed energy, the energy base power will be expressed as 4 (due to it being positive energy. -2 x -2 = 4). Unlike cursed energy, which can still amp the body, it can be used to heal
Cursed Spirits are the result of tons of cursed energy concentrated into certain points. The attributes, techniques, and nature of the cursed spirit all depend on what negative emotions generated the cursed energy. For example, the cursed energy produced from negative emotions associated with the fear of insects will give rise to a cursed spirit that essentially embodies the fear of insects and how strong those emotions are will determine its grade level. So places like a battle field of a war or prison can give birth to some pretty nasty Cursed Spirits. To simply, they’re the embodiment of specific negative human emotions (important to keep in mind).
The flow of cursed energy from Jujutsu sorcerers and Curse Users is different and doesn’t leak and because of this, it allows them to be able to manifest/use cursed techniques and the specific one carved into their soul.
Being a form of negative energy, most techniques using cursed energy are associated with negative things. For example, a cursed technique that allows you to manipulate gravity by nullifying it or lessening it’s pull. This would be seen as something associated with the concept of negative since it’s negating gravity.
You can also embed a curse into objects as well.
Absolutely correct! Thanks for taking the time to explain it so anyone with doubts can get a cleaner idea.
The journey begins!!
Just a warning the community likes to spoil alot so you should not read many comments. Hope you enjoy the show tho
Haha oh no, well thank you. I’ll be careful, and appreciate the warning 🔥 I’m so excited to start JJK! Thanks 😄
This. I hope she has someone screening comments for her, or else any death and/or major event which may or may not happen WILL be ruined by someone in the comments section. I don't know what it is about JJK fans, but they just can't resist blurting out spoilers!
The biggest difference between JJK and Bleach, is that JJK is good :)
Jjk itself is inspired from bleach. Bleach is better but no need for comparisons.
Jjk is the best in new gen.
@@animeworld61616 But it's isn't. Bleach is just one of stories the author was a fan of, so there are some references, but JJK is not based on it.
The author actually has an interest in mythology and the occult, so that's where the story comes from.
Just wait for her to reach the *SHIBUYA ARC*
this trial is far from over....depression arc
Season 2 is going to be so wholesome ❤❤☺️
Sukuna 's voice actor is Grimjaww
Season 1 is just season 2’s prologue, stick with it bc YES it is good.
Season 1 is great. Season 2 is absolutely unbelievable.

I hope you won’t get spoiled 😣 please don’t google anything! Have fun! 🎉
18:32 or like a docen other characterss on a docen other animes, seriously, the evil entity inhabiting the protagonist body has been done a million times, though thid anime is probably the one that does it the best
I’m a hxh fan and I find so many similarities between hxh and jjk (curse power)
Did you recognise Sukuna’s voice? 😎
Season 1: 7/10 what youll expect from a average shouen
Season 2: 15/10 only noticeable flaws is the animation, but us literally the best anime arc i seen in years. I thought bleach tybw and G5 luffy vs kaido was gonna carry. But jjk season 2 blew em kut if the water. Its literally literally like watching a long running anime movie. Prepare to suffer and make it double
Heck yeah! The UA-cam journey begins
Its very good
Since you like bleach, sukuna's voice actor is the same that does grimmjow in bleach and there others that you will recognize soon
Jjk author was inspired by bleach
This was NOT the show to get favorite characters in
LET'S GO!! 🔥
"i wanna see it as its own thing"
Can't stop comparing it to bleach 😂..
