    Now that was.. something!

    I seriously am out of words, this show just keeps getting better and I seriously can't remember any work with this much going on in episode after episode that u can't really wait to see the next one!

    Last week was crazy, but this episode for sure is better! The amount of things happening in the same time is beyond my mind, Todo is one hell of a character and I wished he was in shibuya sooner!

    Maheto with his new abilities, his jokery-mental laugh is something we wait for every episode.

    The end raises some questions though, and u can't really guess whats gonna happen knowing that these last episodes are the end of the arc!

    Transformative Brilliance

    'Transformation' is a tour de force, seamlessly blending character development with gripping narrative twists. The writing reaches new heights as it explores profound themes, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats. Performances are stellar, with each actor delivering nuanced emotions. The cinematography elevates key moments, creating a visually stunning experience. The directorial choices enhance the episode's impact, and the score is a masterful companion. 'Transformation' not only satisfies with its resolution but sets the stage for compelling future arcs. A perfect 10/10 - a triumph in storytelling and execution."

    They were really at their 120%

    Title quoted from the last episode.

    Everything was perfect, the analogy of Mahito and Itadori, the hunting scene, and of course, Todo Aoi's tactical, inspirational and comedic brilliance.

    JJK fans are truly fortunate to have MAPPA animating their piece, big shout out to the animators, musicians and directors behind this series. It would be best if they stop making it a rush though, for the health of the animators. I'm sure the fans including myself are willing to wait.

    I seldom write reviews other than on some really fine shows like Attack on Titan, Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones etc. I believe JJK deserves a spot in it too.

    My new favorite episode.

    I had to create my account just to leave this review thats how much I loved this. The animation in this episode for in my opinion is among its best moments. They have done more than justice to the source material. The insane moments this episode has to offer are brilliantly paced and directed. Theres a particular sequence toward the beginning with truly amazing 3D camera work. I find it hard to fault it for some of the lax background details. Some of the environment is very smooth but considering the working conditions these people are under it's nothing short of mind blowing that could accomplish this much. Yuji and Todo once again prove that THEY are the exception. Mahito's VA is a standout to me. His performance in every episode is genuinely unhinged and this episode is just that. Of course the performances are amazing all around. It's a superb episode with awesome music, stellar animation and very clever writing. Give MAPPA a round of applause. I wish I could give it an 11/10.

    Wow, just wow...

    I get tired of saying 'the greatest anime of 2023' .

    Oh my God, I don't know what to say.. in terms of vocal performance, in terms of production, in terms of music, in terms of combat, in terms of writing, soundtracks, and atmosphere, in terms of dramatic depth and terrifying psychological attachment to each episode.. everything was "MASTERPIECE" from All aspects... the dramatic character mixed with psychological suffering and a light touch of comedy... just wow.. with every episode in this anime, I say this is the best episode, and an even better episode comes after it.. I am currently in shock from what I have seen... and I am sure I am not alone in my madness. Crazy about the episode..🔥👑

    put the 'hupful' lf you agree with me..

    • Quotes

      Yuji Itadori: I'll accept it, Mahito. I am you. I wanted to reject you. I wanted to pretend I didn't understand what you said. But that's different now. I'll just kill you. And if you're ever reborn again as a new curse, I'll kill you then, too. You can change your name and change your appearance, but I'll still kill you again and again. I don't need meaning or a reason for it anymore. Maybe there will be some meaning to be found from my actions several centuries after I'm dead. But I'm sure I'm just... one big cog in the wheel. And I'll keep on killing curses until I rust away. Because that is my role in this war.
