Mahito's VA is so good that he made me feel bad for him even after all he did. The way he screams like a wounded animal is just perfect. Also, seeing Yuji as the predator he's become is as satisfying and badass as it is scary and depressing.
@@joeycognition8824 I think it is because he has lost whatever innocence he had as a child. He is now a murderer that has accepted his role as such. Remember how Yuji explained how he felt about "exorcising" and "killing" to Junpei? Btw, I used murderer because it pairs with the idea of "killing" the Curses instead of "exorcising" them? Sorry, I feel like this could be said better honestly😅
"This feels like the arc where the villains win." That's EXACTLY what the Shibuya Incident is! Its the turning point of JJK from a mostly lighthearted action anime to 'please make it stop. stop taking these characters from me'.
Regarding the final blow in the fight, and some adaptation info: the JJK manga always had a narrator, but the anime only started using it now in the Shibuya arc. Apparently, it was Gege's wish that the anime didn't rely so much on it as the manga does, and that was possible until now (narration was adapted in S1, but usually through a character speaking or thinking). From Shibuya onwards, it's almost impossible to imagine an adaptation without it, really. Still, the anime only used it when strictly necessary. The whole thing Mahito did before being hit is explained in the manga: basically, his form briefly switching back to the original was bait. He made it look like his form was cracking (like what happened a few seconds before), but the change was only visual (using Transfiguration). Yuji falls for it and aims his punch there. Mahito is almost able to counter and kill him, if it weren't for the second hit of Divergent Fist.
I personally feel like Sukuna COULD respect Mahito if he had time to mature and evolve as a curse, but at his current state didn't. Mahito isn't the same kind of egotistical as Gojo and Sukuna, or even to a lesser extent someone utterly enraptured by their own cause and willing to die for it like Jogo. He's a child playing around and having fun, he has the POTENTIAL to become someone worthy of respect, but not as he is right now. He had that ''when you know a dude lying but you still listening'' face when Mahito spoke to him lol
@@anusaukko6792 yeahh respect is the wrong word I guess, more like he is intrigued or interested and like 'yeah let's see what he's capable of'. But he can see the potential in Mahito
@@anusaukko6792I guess it's more of a sort of admiration for Mahito if anything. Like, I got the vibe he was going "You used a DE despite what happened last time AND you're disrespecting me? ...aight, let's see how this plays out~" Especially with that smile. He immediately senses Mahito but obviously couldn't do nothing so I just imagine had Mahito had a few more years at least, Sukuna would be willing to respect him the way he respected Jogo. Which is to say, not in the most conventional way but still XD
Gege is actually surprised at how much people loved Inumaki, to him he was just a basic side character, especially when they did a popularity poll. Yuji after Shibuya is like a broken glass, people helped but him back together but the marks still remain.
@OffisianI personally love non verbal characters in media and fiction, so I just wanted to double check with you when you say “it makes him characterless”… do you really mean, “I feel like I can’t connect with him as well” (because he has a great characterization/dialogue moments if you begin to understand his lingo) Tbf though, I had to do a lot of rereading to find all the usages of his rice ball speech- but when you know what his phrases mean and rewatch his scenes, you’ll get more context as to how he thinks and feels! but he definitely does have character! Lol
Its crazy seeing Yuji finally give up on his ideals and admit he’s a monster just like Mahito who’s sole purpose is to kill as many curses as possible before he dies. Chilling stuff
Fun fact is during this whole episode Yuji had his whole hair style like Sukuna (pushed back) which ties into your point about him giving up on a part of his humanity and embracing being more like a monster.
@@Nemesislord001 this is why the anime shouldn't have forgot to include the cover of chapter 117 (start of mahoraga vs sukuna). it shows what sukuna looked like when he was alive and led to so many theories that the anime onlys are missing out on.
@@Nemesislord001even Wasuke Itadori (yujis grandfather) look like sukuna, because Gege hasn’t revealed Yuji’s tree family from heian era. Do you remember when Yuji's grandfather wanted to tell him about his father? But Yuji ignored him (eps 1) Personally, I think there is a connection between sukuna & itadori family. And the fact Yuji is Kenjaku’s son.
They're not monsters. The whole point of this fight is yuji realising that he's not fighting some type of abnormality that shouldn't exist. He's fighting a being with different ideals. There's no right or wrong. These concepts were created by humans.
Todo's top tier moments are always with his brother or future wife, Takada-chan and going his locket opening to him using Mahito's hand to switch, because Mahito was also caught off guard by the pictures... S-tier sequence (laughing & in awe)🔥
Thanks a lot for your great reaction....speechless, that's only word for this video. 'I AM YOU' and an insane punch, that is the SHONEN manga.😤💓 i appreciate your videos !
No one from reaction channels gets it that the Fake Geto was just waiting for the end of their battle. You will ask for what - For abvious reason that im not gonna spoil because you will see it in next episodes
Mahito suffered the same fate that he subjected all his victims to. Being used as a cursed spirit having his soul used at someone else's whim. Yuji couldn't have dispensed that kind of punishment to him
18:34 for the first time.. Mahito experiences the other side of the coin of the emotions he is born from. Fear. We all fear that which we do not know or understand, out of that fear other negative emotions rise, resentment, anger, jealousy, hatred, sadness, etc. for all his self-discovery Mahito never actually understood his origin. and it isn't just ''Fear'' but absolution in that fear. there is no escape, no salvation, no negotiation, its like Hunter and Prey. A Predator doesn't reason, it doesn't ponder about it, it doesn't get distracted by emotions or feel bad about killing its prey. for all he talked about understanding and being the same, he never actually understood what he lacked. he never understood that what he lacked was fear for his own life, fear is an emotion that preys on our need to preserve ourselves, to keep ourselves safe. it also shackles us, without knowing what we fear and why we fear it, we can never grow as a person. the opposite of Fear (which creates stagnation) is Change. Ironic then isn't it? that the ability he possesses is called ''Idle Transformation''
Man, Mahitos Voice Actor did such a good Job and the Character was really well written to hate him and wish him beaten finally. So glad he got ended now, not the way i envisioned it to be but alas, hes gone now xD Great Reaction Video as always ^^
Wow only 2 episodes of the season left :,), it's been such a journey watching alongside with you I can't believe its coming to an end. Fake Geto finally coming into things himself is pretty terrifying since he's been just staying hidden in the background until this arc. Here's hoping the wait for season 3 won't be terribly long!
3:36 a reminder that the entire shibuya incident happens within only a few hours. Even if someone's coming to help, it still takes some time for them to get here. Plus, no one has ever expected Gojo to be sealed.
Toudou Aoi's worldview. In other words, domain expansion. Well, normally, domain expansion involves projecting one's worldview into a barrier and forcing it down while fighting, but Toudou Aoi has dispensed with barrier techniques. On top of that, instead of barrier techniques, he uses his own body itself as the boundary of the barrier, granting himself the maximum effect of domain expansion. As it only works on attacks that press his own body against them, it only has an advantage against simple attacks, but it also works on Mahito as a strike that interferes with his soul. Moreover, Mahito comes into contact with Toudou Aoi's innate domain through domain expansion, and the deep connection of love between Itadori and Takada-chan is forcibly transmitted to his brain, leaving him confused and unable to understand it. It's as if he is getting the same effect as Gojo Satoru's Infinite Void.
Except you're reaching and it isn't a domain expansion, this whole daydream doesn't even exist in the manga. Mahito got distracted with the pendant and then Todo just used this oportunity (that's also what actually happens in the anime too)
Anykne can do a Black Flash, but Yuji's a genius at it, even doing itnon ourpose this time. Todou baited Mahito into thinking someone would switch places, all to give Itadori a chance to hit him. Todou's IQ is off the rooftops (most goes into imagining hyper-realistic Takada-chan saving him, and just the necessary bit into actually planning the fight)
Also the talented animator who animated the Todo scene where he dances with the idol was only 16 years old, and he apologized for making that scene because people accused him of having Todo "cross dress". People are so crazy sometimes and he should never apologize for this masterpiece he's contributed to
A couple videos ago you asked if there was another villain in anime that matches the audience hatred as much as Mahito, I think Light (Kira) from Death Note is probably one. Not sure if you've seen it but If you have a chance, I highly recommend watching it. It's a mystery/thriller so it'll be nice change of pace to what you're currently watching. It's really good!
Not sure if that’s a good example imo because light is also one of the most loved anime characters, he’s in that same category like eren where a lot of people don’t like what he did but also a lot of people really love the character. Feel like for every person you meet who don’t like him, you’ll meet someone who do
Yuji's VA at the end is amazing because I'm fairly certain he deliberately changed his voice slightly to make it sound like his mouth had an extra hole in it. His tone is slightly garbled... I dunno it totally sounding like how i imagine someone with a open wound in the side of thier mouth would. Also, alot of people get trippy on the ending and how Yuji should have just killed him but. a) Yuji is basically nearly as fucked a Mahito at this point. b) His being slightly cautious because its Mahito and it is wise to be cautious, the guy in a whole bag of tricks. But mostly c) Do you really think Geto hadn't been watching in the shadows for a while at this point? Yuji can't have a Domain Expansion moment because he doesn't have a cursed technique.
Something that almost no one noticed, in the scene of Yuji admitting that he is the same as Mahito. In the shadow with red eyes, there is a void where the heart is located. Assuming that yuji He feels nothing but death longing in his thoughts
Absolutely LOVE the reference to Hunter x Hunter through Todo 😭 Will not elaborate just in caee, as it is spoiler territory, but as a fan, LOVE IT and made me cry Similar with Yuji and his clenched fist looking like Jajanken
I think one of my favorite pieces of writing in JJK is that Todo Aoi is possibly the only person on the planet who could execute that maneuver against Mahito and not instantly die from Soul Transfiguration. His sheer delusion was enough of a distraction. It's so good.
1:43 "I think I just need to plow through these last three episodes and just see what actually happens ... so many things unanswered" Yeah, about that, great plan but... You know... Gege things :D
So an interesting point regarding the Sukuna and Mahito interaction is that Mahito was at an equal level to Sukuna here whereas in the past going into Sukuna’s innate domain always had him towering above. This likely ties into what Sukuna said to Jogo that him not attempting to open a domain expansion because he lost previously to Gojo was a ‘losers spirit’ whereas Mahito despite knowing the outcome previously from opening his domain expansion against Yuji did it again by taking a gamble with the way he opens it which separates him from Jogo’s ‘loser’ mentality. By doing this I feel like Sukuna looking at him face to face was an acknowledgement of Mahito having a greedy mindset that Gojo wants Megumi to adopt. Another little fun fact if you look at the animation carefully when Mahito lands his 2nd black flash you can vaguely see the outline of the soul he mentioned.
Nothing you said was wrong at all and I agree completely except I feel like the mahito “at an equal level” thing with sukuna is more metaphorical then literal since mahito is objectively weaker than sukuna. Not sure if you meant that literal or metaphorical but just wanted to put my two cents haha
Imo the reason Yuji needed to monologue there was to instill that idea of fear into Mahito. Yuji knew that Mahito will come back in some form, all curses do. Yuji might not be there next time. At least that's how I see it
20:30 YES THANK YOU i'm tired of people defending this scene. Trying to justify gege's plot hole when in reality this is just bad writing YUJI PLAY TOO MUCH
It may be a Hot take, but aside the battle, I feel like the anime cut some of the things that made this part of the story top tier. When Todo slaps Mahito's hand, he thinks about shortly before about how boogie woogie has one last secret, which is a nice callback to the Hanami fight, and it creats hype. And when Getwo shows up at the end of the episode, he's first shown as a big bad Black Wolf, in contrast to Yuji's White one. And it helps solidify how low Mahito truly stands: after all his big talk and shenanigans, he's nothing but prey for the actual hunters in this jungle.

20:23 flexie clenched her fist in anger and starts charging her black flash to hit geto.
daum RIGHT! lol
She was fr bout to unleash a Hollow Purple the size of the moon in pure hatred
Holy moly I am so glad you picked up why Fake Geto showed up when Mahito's at his most developed stage at the same time at his weakest.
Mahito's VA is so good that he made me feel bad for him even after all he did. The way he screams like a wounded animal is just perfect. Also, seeing Yuji as the predator he's become is as satisfying and badass as it is scary and depressing.
Couldnt have explained it better
Not me. I didn't feel bad for him. Mahito is a monster.
Don’t see how it’s depressing
Nah I didn't feel bad for him for a second. Dogs get put down.
@@joeycognition8824 I think it is because he has lost whatever innocence he had as a child. He is now a murderer that has accepted his role as such.

Sukuna actually respects someone like Mahito that is ballsy and just do what he wants. It's like Sukuna's advice to Jogo to just burn everything
I personally feel like Sukuna COULD respect Mahito if he had time to mature and evolve as a curse, but at his current state didn't.

for the first time..
Mahito experiences the other side of the coin of the emotions he is born from.
Fear.

Jujutsu Kaisen is a work that makes it difficult to explain emotions in words.✨
The people involved in this anime are more like budding artists.
Good Lord! What a fight, ladies and gentlemen. "BROTHERS" Duo is the GOAT..

Really appreciative of your reactions. You have a great level of being in the moment, and also pausing to analyze and think about stuff.
nice to bear witness to your frustration with this episode. Thanks for sharing.
Hahaha the pendant is definitely one of the top special grade cursed items in the show!lol
Nobara's last words to Mahito "Yeah, for running away like a little bitch. "
The tables turned, while the hunter became the prey, the prey became the hunter, its hatred dissolved, into its dead prey.

The extension of Yuji in that part before Geto appeared was anime an addition

Yuji and Mahito like Levi and Zeke this episode.
3:36 a reminder that the entire shibuya incident happens within only a few hours. Even if someone's coming to help, it still takes some time for them to get here.
Plus, no one has ever expected Gojo to be sealed.
The creator didn’t make this with the MC in mind. He made it with the intent of having an OP villain.
In the opening song, they take away that character every time they die (examples are Nanami and Nobara) but they also do villains like Jogo
i think flexie is an angel on the earth nothing more to add

That’s all happening in his head, none of what is shown is real or part of his domain. None of it even happened in the manga

Except you're reaching and it isn't a domain expansion, this whole daydream doesn't even exist in the manga. Mahito got distracted with the pendant and then Todo just used this oportunity (that's also what actually happens in the anime too)
Every time Todo's in a fight he instantly becomes his opponent's top 1 priority. Truly the jujutsu to our kaisen
I love your reactions! I really enjoy them
Anykne can do a Black Flash, but Yuji's a genius at it, even doing itnon ourpose this time.
Todou baited Mahito into thinking someone would switch places, all to give Itadori a chance to hit him. Todou's IQ is off the rooftops (most goes into imagining hyper-realistic Takada-chan saving him, and just the necessary bit into actually planning the fight)

What do you mean by that. Just a lil confused since there are multiple characters stronger than todo and mahito
Not really? Even Nanami withstood direct contact, which should've damaged him a lot more by protecting his soul subconciously

This likely ties into what Sukuna said to Jogo that him not attempting to open a domain expansion because he lost previously to Gojo was a ‘losers spirit’ whereas Mahito despite knowing the outcome previously from opening his domain expansion against Yuji did it again by taking a gamble with the way he opens it which separates him from Jogo’s ‘loser’ mentality.
By doing this I feel like Sukuna looking at him face to face was an acknowledgement of Mahito having a greedy mindset that Gojo wants Megumi to adopt.
Another little fun fact if you look at the animation carefully when Mahito lands his 2nd black flash you can vaguely see the outline of the soul he mentioned.
Nothing you said was wrong at all and I agree completely except I feel like the mahito “at an equal level” thing with sukuna is more metaphorical then literal since mahito is objectively weaker than sukuna. Not sure if you meant that literal or metaphorical but just wanted to put my two cents haha
Smart, literally smart.
Todo is literally me lmao 🗿
Now we just have to wait for the next part 😭😭
Imo the reason Yuji needed to monologue there was to instill that idea of fear into Mahito. Yuji knew that Mahito will come back in some form, all curses do. Yuji might not be there next time. At least that's how I see it
geto gonna help him really really well😂😂😂
I think when Todo clapped, Mahito threw a blow behind himself expecting him and Yuji to switch sides.
Flexie became yuji when he hit mahito she wanted to do it herself so bad 😂
20:30 YES THANK YOU i'm tired of people defending this scene. Trying to justify gege's plot hole when in reality this is just bad writing
YUJI PLAY TOO MUCH
Nanami called Mahito a child. And when Mahito was defeated, he acted like one
Cant wait for the next episode :)
Tbf Yuji put literally all his cursed energy into that final black flash, so there wasn't much left in the tank to actually finish off mahito.
if geto wasn't there he would most definitely finish off mahito
It may be a Hot take, but aside the battle, I feel like the anime cut some of the things that made this part of the story top tier.
When Todo slaps Mahito's hand, he thinks about shortly before about how boogie woogie has one last secret, which is a nice callback to the Hanami fight, and it creats hype.
And when Getwo shows up at the end of the episode, he's first shown as a big bad Black Wolf, in contrast to Yuji's White one. And it helps solidify how low Mahito truly stands: after all his big talk and shenanigans, he's nothing but prey for the actual hunters in this jungle.
22:52 Like a kid, He is a kid
if we notice his actions he is like kids getting exited & crazy on little things
Woww have been waiting for this 😍😁
lmao..no matter how much jjk happened to you but your intuned
Yuji cannot use domain expansion as he doesn’t have an innate technique, he can only use CE
Next episode will be 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Mahito saying he might as well be wishing him happy birthday implies he was a cursed womb all this time and still was this dangerous
He was never a curse womb. He meant it as since he’s “awakened” with his new power up, that he should wish him a happy birthday
He wasn't a cursed womb, the different form also was just a hardened shell
