    JJK fans here are weirdly adverse to criticism of their show. There's nothing wrong with constructively criticizing the animation, as it informs people on the flaws of the show and allows the studio to receive feedback to improve their product.
    It's also well-known at this point that animators were overworked and on a tight deadline due to MAPPA. The animators themselves said it wasn't as polished as it could be. Saying, "I don't care, everything is perfect!" is a disservice to this anime and the animators themselves.
    And the owner of this channel is literally an animator, so even the criticism that this person doesn't know what they're talking about doesn't hold water.

      Yea, that's the whole point of a review, but the general populace still struggles to comprehend that term.
      Also, I wouldn't call myself an animator tbh, I try to animate every once in a while. I'm simply fascinated by this subject, which is why I pay attention to it, and try to learn. I'm far more of a fan than an animator, although animating is fun...

      "JJK fans here are weirdly adverse to criticism of their show."
      They're also extremely over critical. Even JJK at it's worst looks better than 90% of all other anime. JJK standards are so high to some fans that this leads to a lot of unfair hate and criticism that other anime would never receive for similar quality.

    • @Jekiterio
      @Jekiterio 7 місяців тому +1

      ​@@Hoopr32 Are you stupid? there are tons of animes having better animation than JJK when its at its worse or even good, atleast a decent show has consistent animation and good fight choreography, not taking too big of a risk where stuff lose proportion and perspective (off character models) which JJK likes to do a lot of times and in many cases fails at it. Its also a lot of subjectivity when it comes to animation, its not all about pushing out frames when there is storyboarding, proper keyframing, visual style, editing, cgi, etc. Honestly if people want to see godlike animation go watch "Memories (1995) - Magnetic Rose and Stink Bomb" it will blow away all modern animation we got today.

      @WildRift6 8 місяців тому

      The 2/3 of the 15th episode looked amazing for me, but when it came to Sukuna’s revival part, I was all disappointed, starting from how they animated Jogo feeling Sukuna’s presence and ending it up with completely ruining the manga panel of sukuna cleaning himself, imo this episode gets a solid 8,5/10, if they didn’t ruined Sukuna’s entrance it would’ve been 10/10 episode just like the 13th episode which is the embodiment of perfection to me, that’s all what I wanted to say guys, hope you share my opinion about this one.

Many fans were already complaining about the animation of the hidden inventory arc. Personally, I agree with probably pretentious. The hidden inventory arc is the best animated arc of the whole JJK series so far. While mainstream audiences think the Good will event arc was the best.

    To me this is so weird because somehow the bar is insanely high for JJK but not other shows ? Like JJK has consistently been pumping out quality animation and episodes as a whole, episode after episode, with consistently amazing art and animation. Sure some scenes arent highlight worthy but they.... shouldnt be ? Thats the very basis of a production, you gotta choose what to push forward and what to just do what needs to be done for it to work. I'd say I'm a very critical person when it comes to visuals when I watch anime and JJK easily blows out of the water 90%+ of all anime. Like the production staff has NOTHING to be ashamed about, this is amazing work. There are so many horrible looking anime out there, this is the cream of the crop.
