Speaker 1:

what's good, nerds? It's jet black extreme, and the zone podcast is back at again with another review. This time we are revisiting jujutsu kaisen. We're gonna be talking about the movie and season two, and, dare I say, jujutsu kaisen is now a certified hood anime, and I will explain why in just a moment. So, without further ado, let's get at it.

Speaker 1:

So what what? I said, that jiu-jitsu kaisen is a hood certified hood anime because, first of all, the way it's been embraced by the black community, like almost immediately to where the fights and whatnot, I kind kind of get it because, you know, at this point I realized that the black community love good fight scenes, like the way Yuji was fucking wailing on Mahito in the Shibuya incident. I was like fuck, I kind of see why they got a little bit of appeal, you know, with the left, right and all that. And then congratulations to Rapsopetti, to where he made hood jjk and he just got to a hundred thousand subscribers and one million on the incident video that he did. Now keep in mind kokigasu we talked about freddo to where he was, uh, doing videos for 13 years and just popped off. Rap, so petty, has a similar story to where he had a YouTube channel for years but he's just not popping off.

Speaker 2:

So yeah, I mean, hey, people check me out, Like I just started my YouTube. Well, I have a YouTube channel for a while, but I just started like uploading videos. Right now it's the updates for different things, but we got some more projects coming along. Check me out, bro. Keep y'all up to date about different things. We're gonna have some fun stuff popping out, you know.

Speaker 1:

Just saying and also let's keep in mind that, uh, between Tattoo and I, also Sauron and some other members in the inner circle we are building up our online store. We're gonna have t-shirts, we're going to have 3d printed items, we're going to have all different kind of merchant apparel. We are building up that website and we are building up our social media and everything. So please follow us on social media facebook, instagram, twitter we're everywhere. At this point, we are going to work on a YouTube channel, like a zone YouTube channel. That's going to be like 2025, but that depends on the planning and what we got going on. So, yes, let's just go ahead and start talking about you got something to cook us just real quick, remember.

Speaker 2:

You can always just go to Google, type in zealous and entertainment we are at first 16. Just real quick, remember. You can always just go to google, type in zealous and nerd entertainment we are at first 16 things that pop up. So you can't. It's very easy to find us. Just literally type in zealous and nerd entertainment and we are right there. You access to our facebook, instagram, every platform that we have podcasts on.

Speaker 1:

You can always check it out you know, I gotta take advantage of the seo. You know. Now, for real, let's zone in on this. We're gonna start off with the movie jiu-jitsu kaizen zero. This is a prequel, but here's the funny thing. This is more like uh, okay, so hidden inventory is the prequel to jiu jitsu kaisen zero, but this is the part where, uh, you have yuta.

Speaker 1:

He suffered from being bullied. One day, his bullies got greatly injured by a cursed spirit, um, that was clinging to him. That was rika, by the way. Uh, turns out that, uh, with, turns out that, with Yuta and Rika, you know childhood friends and Rika Practically asked him to be Her husband and all that shit, and it was cute and what not. But then Rika got into a car accident. It was very sad, but somehow she became this Special grade Curse that cling to Yuta. You know, like, they like still have this relationship shit going on.

Speaker 1:

And while this is going on, we have Gojo, who is like a new teacher, so to speak, at Jujutsu High and he recruits Yuta to join the School in November 2016.

Speaker 1:

You know, that's what I like about this series like An actual time, like you know, like 2016, yeah, you know, that's a believable time frame, that's a believable time, you know, through all this, and Essentially, yuta meets With Maki, with Maki, inumaki, panda, uh, they have all this shit going on. And this is also where you explore Gojo's relationship with Ghetto, who was also like previous student and old friend of Gojo, who defected from school and killed like a hundred innocent people on a mission. So Ghetto, ghetto. That's why I say that he's like the obito of this series, to where it's like he been through some shit, like, uh, I think the ring character, shoko, dies also, um, because you, you notice how you don't see her anymore. Uh, after that point and I keep saying that it's kind of like a Naruto clone, but at the same time, I want to say it's like a Naruto clone mixed with. It was something, something else. I was thinking, not exactly.

Speaker 1:

My hair academia, but something else. But the crazy part Is how Akutami Said that yeah, pretty much this series Was inspired by Akame Got Killed and I was like, oh, I see, we're going down that route.

Speaker 2:

The anime, not the manga. Very specifically to mention that, because there's a humongous difference.

Speaker 1:

We did talk about it, but yes, indeed, and um, while I'm ranting going on, uh, mira Jane, how are you feeling about Jujutsu Kaisen?

Speaker 3:

as a whole yeah.

Speaker 1:

I mean, I know you weren't here for a season one review so, while we're at it, you know what was your impression of season one, season one, honestly.

Speaker 3:

So, while we're at it, you know what was your impression of season one season one, honestly I thought was amazing, like I honestly thought the first few episodes did a really good job of capturing my attention and setting a precedent for a different type of protag like, yes, itadori is powerful, strong and all those things, but he's not just, he's not soft at all and that's kind of different right now. He's just your basic friend and that's what I love about it's a dory. That's what I loved about season one. It made it feel like your best friend. You fall in love with all of the characters from season one and one thing we learned about a comic I kill is never fall in love with any of the characters. Did I make that mistake? Absolutely, I fell in love with several characters.

Speaker 1:

I completely feel as you on that nah, here's the funny thing I thought with I could make I kill shelly, was that one time I was like, oh well, shit. Well, you know the one time I'm like, okay, that's kind of shocking, but whatever. And then as soon as I did it I was like oh so this is basically anime Game of Thrones now Like even the main character ain't safe bro. Yeah, oh, listen, we're moving on now, because that just hurt my feelings, right? Yeah, listen, we're moving on now because that just hurt my feelings right there.

Speaker 1:

That's what I mean. God damn it.

Speaker 2:

Just reawakened some wounds. I have a question for myself which person whose death hurt the most? Bulat or communist?

Speaker 3:

Communist.

Speaker 1:

Communist man, listen, I will follow communist to hell and back I was so hurt when he died.

Speaker 3:

I ain't gonna lie, man. I cried Like I booed. I didn't go to class that day.

Speaker 1:

I was not ready for that, definitely.

Speaker 3:

Like I had. I had been doing so good, I hadn't missed any classes.

Speaker 1:

And then I'm sitting here and I watch that and I'm like yep, I'm not, not my friends came knocking on my door and how Seymour felt for like a couple of episodes where he would just start chilling them ship. I'm nah, I don't feel like doing anything, I'm like I'm touching it.

Speaker 3:

You know, that's kind of the difference with JJK, though None of these characters have time to grieve.

Speaker 1:

I mean it's an all-out war between the sorcerers and the curses. I'm like, hey man, this is wartime, you don't got time to cry.

Speaker 2:

They don't Hold on just when season two. Now there's not just the um the sorcerers versus the curses, it's sorcerers versus the curses and evil sorcerers oh yeah, we're doing season two, so now we can talk about evil sorcerers now too yeah, yeah, I didn't.

Speaker 3:

You know, I didn't even see it as like evil sorcerers. I saw it as just like a step up above curses. I didn't see hey, that's a good way to put it I didn't see them as just evil sorcerers.

Speaker 1:

I don't know, yeah, I was thinking like that one blonde dude I keep forgetting his name but uh, I feel like, nah, I don't think he's like a Curse, I feel like he's like an evil Sorcerer, that's kind of like defected and what not, but um, ghetto, well, ghetto, if you can even call him that really. I mean, if you read the manga, uh, he's Something else entirely. Let's just Put it like that. Now, um, season two, like because you know, I talked about a little bit about the film and I'm like that's pretty much all there is to it, just pretty much a prequel to all the shifts where yuta's gonna come back. Um, in fact, he showed up at the tail end of the shibuya incident arc and now he's gonna be the uh, the hitter for yuji in the kohan games bro, that plays out very like.

Speaker 2:

I'm not gonna spoil it because I read the manga, but it plays out very differently than you expected to I mean okay I mean, I didn't.

Speaker 1:

I didn't see that part this year, like it kind of felt like, okay, I kind of, uh, glossed over the colon games and I got straight into the parts where Sue can. Um, you know what? I'm going to leave it at that Gotcha, gotcha.

Speaker 2:

Now, look, I'm going to just give a quick wink so we can go ahead and start talking about the movie and stuff like that. My understanding as far as for me on how Jujutsu Kaisen has progressed from my first, from our first review in season one to now seeing, have seen the movie and seeing all the season two um, it did way better than my expectations, than I thought it would. To be honest with you, it's one of those ones that I'm just like yo okay, um, I'm not gonna go into manga spoilers, so my review right now is going to be very different Because of just the anime itself. And I say that because If I was reviewing with the manga too, my review score would be lower, if I'm gonna be honest. But right now we're still sticking at a pretty high score For me. I'm even saying right now, season 2 and the movie Sitting at a very good 8.5 out of 10 For me on that.

Speaker 3:

The story is very good 8.5 out of 10 for me on that.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, is is very good to follow. Um, you know you're talking about, like, yeah, obviously the black community. You know it's gonna be real some hood nigga on the fact that we absolutely jump no jutsu, bro. That is, that is straight up what the juiciest guys need. They don't fight nobody solo. You know, anytime somebody fights solo, they start getting the ass kick. Then one other person. All it takes is one other person to show up and then, boom, jump no jutsu. We about, we jumping things like that's what we're doing left right, ain't got no time to like recoil or do nothing. You better like know what you're doing, because if you don't, you're getting hit from one person to another person. They're playing ping pong. You ain't that. That, that, that, that, you ain't that you're not okay.

Speaker 3:

So best fight scene from um we'll start. I want to start from, like the beginning of the season hidden inventory. Start there, best fight scene hidden inventory was I think for me it was definitely oh man, uh, honestly seeing ghetto, uh body, that that uh old man, yeah, oh man like no, like I didn't like how that dude had his life flashing Before his eyes on petting his dog and shit.

Speaker 1:

You see ghetto, like wailing on that dude Like he was losing teeth and shit.

Speaker 3:

And the dude, the old man, was like my life Flashed before my eyes.

Speaker 1:

He crashed into that and I was like, hey, this is nothing new. This is 1982 before my eyes. He crashed into that window like hey, this is nothing new since 1982.

Speaker 3:

Like he didn't even realize what was happening to him. And just when he finally realizes like oh snap, he my ass handed to me. Like that moment, seeing Ghetto do that, I I was like I'm not gonna lie, cause you know, there's like this whole conversation on if Ghetto is a fuck boy, just like fucking Gojo. That solidified it for me. I was like, yep, absolutely.

Speaker 1:

He just beat the crap out of an old man, no conscience, no, listen, listen you know what I'm gonna put it to you like this oh man, no conscience, no listen, listen, you know what I'm going to put it to you like this and between Hidden Inventory, Shibuya Incident and a little bit of Season 1, a little bit of Season 1, I realized you know what I kind of like about Gojo a little bit better than Takashi.

Speaker 1:

This dude is kind of like about gojo a little bit better than kikashi. It's kind of unhinged, like the look on his face when he fights people. Man, I'm like this was kind of crazy.

Speaker 2:

Look well, I like him better than kikashi is. I'm so sorry. I like I'm better than kikashi in this aspect. I love.

Speaker 1:

I'm like weird, that's a weird energy that I like.

Speaker 2:

Exactly, and I like the fact that he stands up to the man. He don't care. Gojo, be mad, disrespectful all the time to his superiors, because he knows that they up with some nonsense, and he's like fuck y'all. And then he literally says what y'all gonna do about it? Y'all gonna fight me?

Speaker 1:

No, no no, look here, look here, look here. You're not stronger than me and you don't got more paper than me. Look, I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to rip off Rob's real quick. It was like Gojo is literally the type of dude that can say broke. Niggas should never speak, wow.

Speaker 2:

Look until obviously no manga spoiler, since it broke the internet. People already know anyway, but I'm still not going to say too much up until the gojo incident that happened in the manga recently at that point literally nobody. Nobody can say nothing to gojo whatsoever. He could say what he could say what he wanted to say. He could go where he wanted to go.

Speaker 3:

He could be with whoever he wanted to be with.

Speaker 2:

I like how.

Speaker 1:

During the Shibuya incident, he was like I'm suppressing me.

Speaker 2:

I would never get over the fact that this dude was shot in the head, clean in the head, and still survived that instance Not only, survived in the head, clean in the head and still survive that that instance not only survive, not only survive, awaken a brand new ability can we talk about how he awakened that ability in that actual moment.

Speaker 3:

Like he realized it, in the moment he's getting shot in the head, he was like, oh, I get it, I was supposed to do this. Like.

Speaker 2:

It's the same to me as reverse flash and I'm sorry, jb, I know you have something you wanted to say. I just want to really mention this real quick. It reminds me of the flashpoint, yeah holo purple, oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

He unlocked that one too. He unlocked two abilities In that one instance. That that's just hilarious. But but literally it reminds me, like reverse flash in the flash point, when he got shot by Batman, by Thomas Wayne. Batman Got shot in the head and, as the bullets is passing through his head is vibrating his speeds at the moment to Menace to extend his life. Still be it, still be a dangerous dude. He's literally dying. He has a full gunshot wound through his head and still is able to run up against Flash and other people and be like, oh, I feel still, mark, y'all this is still possible. I'm sitting here like and this is that Gojo energy, right now I'm like he's like I shot you in the head. I know it was thrilling.

Speaker 3:

It was amazing.

Speaker 2:

That was so good for me. There's a whole page I follow as a black girl anime group and literally there was one dude posted. He said this is really what y'all all over right now and all the girls was like don't be hating, because you ain't him.

Speaker 1:

No, that's the funny thing. It's like, see, here's the thing. I'm not even mad at gojo, but that's the kind of energy that he gives off it like he's so. He is super handsome, he is the strongest character in this whole show and he got money. I'm like, hey, man, I'm not mad at you, man, I kind of want to be like this dude, like I can't, I can't, I can't hate him. But listen, listen, like I like how, with his techniques where he got like uh, curse technique, uh, curse technique, lap blue and then curse reversal red, but in the a bridge it's like hundred band blue and blue baton red time red that's so lit.

Speaker 3:

I'm not gonna lie to you. The look on his face when he saw toji is the look on my face when I saw him like it was just how crazy he was looking. In that moment I immediately knew that I was pregnant.

Speaker 1:

I knew you know what this pretty much confirms my Running suspicion that I'm convinced MJ Likes bad boys.

Speaker 2:

Obviously.

Speaker 3:

Y'all will be surprised.

Speaker 1:

Y'all will be surprised. Okay, listen, I heard it from another friend of mine. Y'all pretty much I'm not gonna say any names, but y'all might have a idea who I'm talking about. But let's just say I heard that before to where? I'm like no, no, I only like bad boys and fictional words.

Speaker 2:

I'm like yeah, no, no, you like bad boys in real life too. Don't be like, yeah, like no, don't don't.

Speaker 1:

Life too, don't be like yeah, like no, don't don't.

Speaker 3:

That's suspicious I'm like only in fictional words. Nah, nah, I feel just right now I ain't gonna lie. I feel like I'm gonna be honest with you.

Speaker 2:

I'm be honest with you. Dude came back from being shot in the head, says it was thrilling, has the craziest look on his face as he's about to straight up murk this person and says that he absolutely is going to enjoy this whatsoever, and then gets bored and still has a crazy face and you said I knew I was pregnant. I don't. I don't know how you want us to react at this moment.

Speaker 3:

Don't be hating that that's my baby today.

Speaker 2:

What did I tell you? Exactly what they said.

Speaker 3:

Honestly, though I'm not going to lie to you I would prefer ghetto. I would have preferred ghetto.

Speaker 2:

Wait, hold on. Have you read the manga? I need to ask you a question Did you read the manga? Okay, I just need to verify before you say that you prefer ghetto and you ain't read the manga. If you read the manga. You still prefer ghetto Look if you read the manga and you say you prefer ghetto, I'm going to be honest with you. No, you're not into bad boys, you're into psychopaths. I think you might need to go talk to Callie. Go ahead and get some nerdy therapy. Come on now.

Speaker 3:

It's something about his eyes.

Speaker 1:

What did that? One dude said Um, you know, he's into some Gross shit and that's the best way I can put it, like that's technically A spoiler, but not really a spoiler, it's more like that's the best way I can put it.

Speaker 2:

No, let me not judge your kink. Let me not judge your kink. Like that's technically a spoiler, but not really a spoiler. It's more like that's the best way I can put it no, let me not judge your kink.

Speaker 3:

Let me not judge your kink, I'm not judging your kink, but it is what it is. Did you know yet, though? So I don't know. Let me read. I mean, y'all could spoil it for me, it won't bother me, I'm going to read it anyway.

Speaker 2:

We can't spoil it for everybody listening.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that's Hold on, I got it, I got it. Let's just say, Ida Dory has three parents.

Speaker 3:

Oh hell no.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I forgot, I was going to read that tonight.

Speaker 3:

I need to find out.

Speaker 2:

I still don't understand the whole painting situation and how that equates to living people.

Speaker 1:

I would never understand that, but anyway alright, so we have everything out in the open about hidden inventory.

Speaker 2:

I mean, yeah, like honestly, the old man getting his behind beat was my favorite fight too.

Speaker 2:

I'm gonna be honest, I don't have much to say about the movie itself, other than the fact that, like I just enjoyed the movie, it was a good watch. We got a chance to get a fleshed out character. We got a chance to see, see you to grow, you know, get a chance to really develop his power, get an understanding of what his ability is. What I like is the fact that in the movie it was very clear that he awakened his domain expansion. But we have absolutely no idea what that was and was only just revealed in the manga two months ago. But it has been hinted at since that movie that he discovered his domain expansion at that point.

Speaker 3:

I think the last thing I want to mention about hidden inventory is we find out Megumi's dad. We can't forget Toji.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to wait until Shibuya incident getting to Toji? Because, Jesus Christ.

Speaker 3:

I mean, I want to bring it up, though only because Toji was the first dude. Let's be honest, toji was the first dude to present a challenge to Gojo.

Speaker 2:

That's an understatement.

Speaker 1:

Oh no, no, you know what. You know what that fight felt like to me and Pogasu. You might appreciate this, because you know how we feel about our boy over in Seven Deadly Sins, Our boy Escanor, the way he fought Meliodas during his demon form. How does it feel to be looked down upon by a human? Oh my.

Speaker 3:

God, that's my husband. Now Bojo's my baby daddy Eskador, husband we married Eskador the man.

Speaker 2:

I don't think Eskador would be appreciative of the fact that he shit with you what he don't know, won't kill him or me. Oh, Marcia.

Speaker 1:

Girl.

Speaker 2:

I think Eskador is more for Summerlin anyway, so I don't think it's been more of a cool sense in my heart than this right now. Oh, yes, but no for real, though I get that, but yeah, I do appreciate it as far as that understanding. My frustration is the manga still never fully explains what a heavenly pact is and how it works. It's just different, like it's different for every person. Like all of a sudden, every sorcerer knows what a heavenly pact is, but they have to explain to us that, oh, this person's using a Heavenly Pact. Oh, my goodness, this person is stronger. I've never seen a Heavenly Pact this powerful before and I'm just sitting here like what the fuck is a Heavenly Pact?

Speaker 3:

Like what the heck is going on. I felt that way the whole time, Every time they kept coming up. I was like what is a Heavenly Pact?

Speaker 1:

I'm convinced that Akutami is making up his power system as he's going along that's why I said my ratings would have to go low.

Speaker 2:

I'm just going to be honest when it comes down to the manga. Right now, I'm going to just be honest with you. Every time we get introduced to a character, we get this back story of how powerful this character is, right before they die. I'm sorry for spoiling that, I'm just saying it. It's like next, it's like next chapter. Oh, my goodness, this person's so powerful. We get flashbacks of even Gojo talking about oh yeah, this person's so strong. Da, da, da, da, da. And then dies. And I'm just sitting here like in the same chapter and I'm like bro hold on.

Speaker 1:

Now that we're on talking about dying and all that, can we talk about? How Anonymy, how okay, the girls will fucking love. Anonymy, where he rolled up those sleeves and took that belt off.

Speaker 2:

We have to talk about that. And then that scene in the manga and the anime Is that? That scene in the anime and the manga Is vastly, vastly fucking different. For one understand nanami in season one and season two has a completely different bit. Boy went jojo, season one, through three status for no reason we talked about that.

Speaker 1:

We talked about in the season one review to where it's like he wasn't that cut in season one. What the fuck?

Speaker 2:

bro, it was like what the fuck is happening right now? And legitimately like, not only did he get like stronger in the manga, he picked up the dude ponytail, no, he picked him up just by like a section of his head and like was holding his head. So understand, holding the ponytail was a very, very on purpose for sexual reference. It was on purpose. It was on purpose. It was on purpose because there are some people and I'm saying some people because it's not just women, some men too, who like having their hair pulled during situations.

Speaker 3:

I like doing the pull one I did not catch. That I ain't gonna lie to y'all. I mean, it was all over the internet.

Speaker 2:

I did not catch that. I ain't gonna lie to y'all Don't worry about it. It was all over the internet on my algorithm it was on mine too.

Speaker 3:

Wait. So what's your algorithm? So that's what y'all algorithms look like, huh.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, when you follow anime and you follow black culture, that's usually what happens. I want you to understand.

Speaker 1:

Like I've mentioned before, I have three different Twitters have I? Have three different Twitters okay.

Speaker 2:

I have three different Twitters, okay, and I want you to understand that one of the Twitters that I have is following my roots, african culture and Native American culture. Okay, why am I still seeing Nanami pull up this dude by his ponytail on that Twitter? I'm just trying to figure this out, hey, listen 50 Shades of Grey.

Speaker 1:

It could be like that.

Speaker 3:

I'm not saying it didn't come up on my timeline. I'm not saying that, I just didn't catch the reference. I was just like what is it?

Speaker 1:

No see, here's the thing. We thought nothing of that scene, but then the internet took it in a different direction.

Speaker 2:

Do you know how many Patrick Star memes have popped up on my feed on not just twitter, on facebook as well of patrick, when he was falling asleep on the couch, these photoshop removed his draws and put a vagina right there and was like oh, oh, it should have been me. Like I swear to you it was the most disturbing thing I've ever seen in my life and I'm on.

Speaker 2:

Facebook looking at this and I'm sitting here like why is this happening? The one time look, man, man, get it together like what's going on? Why are you allowing this?

Speaker 1:

nah, see, here's the thing. It's like the way Twitter and Instagram was going. It was only a matter of time before it was going to flood right into Facebook because, you see, you know I'm not going to get too deep, but the point being is that it's too late for all of us to meet a platform. You essentially going to see some shit from now on.

Speaker 2:

Pretty much, literally, that whole scene in itself One. He's overly stronger than he's supposed to be and then on top of that never really got the answer.

Speaker 1:

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I shit, you not. But real quick. I'm starting to hate the fact that I'm trying to scroll through my feed trying to look for some wholesome content. Next thing you know, I'm seeing this one chick with her tits out and whatnot. I'm like, bro, how is this getting in my algorithm? Get this out of my. It's just gonna happen.

Speaker 2:

It depends on what you do. One of the things about it is that I've learned there was one post that Instagram has been kind of cautious about since obviously, I'm becoming a new dad again, so with that I follow my wife and I start following like a lot of little baby things because we're trying to enter like contests to win like free baby stuff and stuff like that. So one of the most popular things to start having on instagram right now is the fact that, like whenever you follow like new mom groups, new dad groups and stuff like that, most people heavily encourage breastfeeding. So what happened is is now there's some, uh, instagram models have found a way to cheat where they're able to expose their breasts by and have a baby doll and make it seem like they're pretending to teach how to breastfeed and they're literally tagging it as breastfeeding, and so now that's been popping up on my Instagram and I'm sitting here like what? What is this?

Speaker 2:

You follow one cosplayer, you see a whole slew of them and suddenly it's like yeah, it goes from being like good cosplay to like oh my goodness, they put a lot of detail to you just bought a sexy suit off of amazon, like I'm not really come on, that's just how it works.

Speaker 2:

But no, so not only broke the internet twice, the only character in anime that I can recall, at least at this moment, who broke the internet twice within one season, and I have to give respect into that. So obviously, first time breaking the anime was grabbed, breaking the internet was the whole grabbing old boy and then, uh, knocking him out two hits and honestly, like I'm very frustrated. He didn't kill him, but I mean that's entirely up to him, that's entirely up to Nanami and the writer. So I'm like, okay, gege said he didn't want to, that's whatever.

Speaker 1:

Well, you know, you've received further Intuitively incident. You see how it plays. Either way, you know we'll get there. Though.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, he was a worthless character To be there, like there was no point in him staying alive, whatever, but still so. That's the first time he broke the internet. Then his death within the same season winds up breaking the internet again. And I don't know if you actually I think we have talked about this um, where you were present as well skip literally. Remember how he always kept saying I forgot what it was called. It was a place that he really wanted to go, but he always talked about he wanted to go on vacation. He really wanted to go to this place. I'm frustrated because I can't remember what it is now, but literally people all over the world they have phone records to prove it like everywhere, japan, everywhere called this place to make some type of. They made monuments for Nanami in this location that he wanted to go. That's how insane. The internet broke on his death.

Speaker 1:

Another death the internet broke on his death, Another death that I want to talk about. I'm kind of sad that I mean it wasn't that impactful, but Beckham Morrow was kind of growing on me. I mean, think about it.

Speaker 2:

That death was oh it hurt, go ahead, think about it, man. That death was oh it hurt, go ahead, yeah see, listen, listen.

Speaker 1:

The fact that, okay, he was like the Conqueror slash Sosri type character where you know he had puppets and whatnot but they were like machines and then he even had a stand-in at one point in the movie. But I'm kind of derailed, the whole point being is that I fucking love the idea that in his final fight that he got in the fucking Gundam and blasted Mayuto what.

Speaker 3:

I know, oh my god. What I loved about that scene in particular, too, is a lot of the colors reminded me of Kill la Kill and the sparkles around it.

Speaker 2:

I was like oh totally kill, la kill kill la kill girl lagoon. Like it definitely made you feel like it was that type of right. Yeah, oh yeah excellent homage onto that map, onto that, because that really was like really really good.

Speaker 3:

Um, honestly, yes, the robots is fantastic the thing that made me the saddest about his death, though, was um, oh god, what's her name?

Speaker 2:

and she's like yeah, she's confessing how she feels and like one day I'm just gonna see you, and he's not even there the saddest part to me is the fact that he died within a domain, within a, um, a domain shield, so they never recovered his body and never really knew that he died, until, all of a sudden, it just like he went missing and the last thing that they remember of him was that he was a traitor yep, yep and literally he was more manipulative.

Speaker 2:

He was manipulating the enemy to try to work on the good side, but they never got the information that he tried. So he literally it wasn't necessarily he died for nothing, but it kind of felt that way- I felt like he died for nothing.

Speaker 3:

I'm gonna be real with you. It it just felt I can't.

Speaker 2:

I say that he can't, that I won't say he died for nothing, only because he was still smart enough to leave one small Mechamaru earpiece with Yuji to where he was still able to pass on some type of information. He wasn't able to pass on everything that he found out because he set this up before his death. So he obviously didn't know a lot. There's a lot of information he did not know when he pre-set up this, this, uh, this earpiece, but he still was able to at least give some type of information and still kind of let people know he really wasn't a traitor. He was actually trying to, you know, do something to help out. But it was just the fact that they never got the information he wanted and unfortunately they never recovered his body and they lost the entire mech as well. So I'm sitting here like how you losing the giant mech, bro. It's like damn Magic Powers.

Speaker 2:

I wanted the mech I've been like bro. Just imagine that moment like noah's ark, because remember, I think it was like uh, I don't think it's like 10, almost 15 years ago, I think that they had, um, recently found noah's. They found what they believe to be noah's ark on the very top of a mountain that's been hidden inside the mountain for like centuries and stuff. I wanted to be kind of like that situation where all of a sudden it's just a random giant mech and be like it was real. Mechamaru, we remember you.

Speaker 1:

Can we talk about another death that got people bugging?

Speaker 2:

Man, we talking about deaths, good lord? No, I'm just kidding, I know.

Speaker 1:

There's been a lot. That's why it's JJK. We should have did a kill deaths, good lord. No, I'm just kidding. I know there's been a lot. That's why it's JJK.

Speaker 3:

We should have did a kill counter.

Speaker 2:

Oh no, there's already an article about it.

Speaker 1:

For real, though, for real no borrow why, why her, why I?

Speaker 2:

don't know. I wasn't as hurt per se, but I was hurt, so I kind of understand. But I mean not as much.

Speaker 1:

I mean, all I'm saying is that I was kind of hoping that she would last a little longer.

Speaker 2:

Like maybe.

Speaker 1:

See, that's the thing, it's not confirmed. But the whole fight with Mahito, to where she he Put her his hand on her face and like half her face kind of of exploded and it's kind of implied that she died. But Some people are saying that, oh well, maybe she was just in intensive care, maybe she Like need to get passed and whatnot. See, that's the Thing. It's like some people like Want to believe that maybe she survived, like it's not confirmed whatnot. Then A lot of folks are saying like nah, she's gone.

Speaker 2:

I know. I know the truth Because the manga did Explain, but I'm not gonna that. Then a lot of folks are saying like nah, she's gone. I know the truth because the manga did explain, but I'm not gonna tell you cause it spoils oh okay, I'm just gonna go sit on my sofa and cry again.

Speaker 3:

It's fine.

Speaker 2:

I'm gonna put in this aspect here, though. Okay, this is one thing to keep in mind of when I say it does kind of explain the way Gege has done it as well. Uh, for some characters, there are some characters that die, and then there's some characters who survive, but because they wound up taking such an intense amount of damage, they retire.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Like yeah, like Toto, and like like with Demon Slayer, with umayer, with Usui I'm trying to say the name correctly but even for him, like you know, we had that whole arc and he wound up losing his arms. He retired. He's like I'm just gonna retire with my wives and then kind of just move on with my life, type of thing. I'm not gonna lie to you.

Speaker 3:

You're not wrong. What if it would be?

Speaker 1:

older brother figures losing their fucking arm and then decide to yep, I'm done, I'm retiring because what else you're gonna do, bro, like at this point?

Speaker 2:

you had a point you can't even that's what.

Speaker 1:

That's what it was. Uh, you just kind of remind me of demon slayer to a degree yeah that's what it was but yeah, that's just what it like.

Speaker 2:

Here's the thing, though like, at this point I want you to understand if you've lost your arms, what else can you really do? Like, once you've lost a limb? At that point you just you holding people down back. Now, at that point, you just hold people back. I'm like and at this point I'm worthless. I'm just gonna be honest with you like, is there a way to reattach that?

Speaker 2:

I'm not hisoka, who got, like you know, connections with the spiders and stuff like that. When my arms get chopped off and they get sewn back together in a microscopic level and get healed because of nin abilities, this isn't that. This is one of those cases of my arm got chopped off. There is nothing I can do. This isn't Baki, where I forgot dude's name, but the karate dude got his arm chopped off and he was able to get it, like through the magical powers of Baki world, because that science does not make any type of real sense, but he was able to get his nerves sewed together to where he was able to use his hand as if it was always there, type of thing.

Speaker 2:

This isn't that type of anime trope. This anime trope is once your arms are gone, that's it. There's no getting it back. Can he do boogie woogie with his feet? Can he like, click his mouth and go and then all of a sudden do the teleportation thing? Can he do that?

Speaker 3:

No, it works with his feet.

Speaker 1:

Same thing with Yuna Makis, where he lost an arm in this incident. And see, that's another thing. I like how the way Raps was saying that and who JJK to where his voice over for Yuta was saying that, and who JJK To where his voice over For Yuta was saying it's like you're calling this shit an incident, not a massacre, not a fucking Tragedy. You're calling this shit an incident. We boss players, hoes, all sorts of people and you're calling this shit an incident. My nigga in Numaki gotta give up his hoop dreams Because he's missing a fucking arm, but you wanna call this shit an incident. They did call shit an incident. My nigga in new market gotta give up his hoop dreams because he's missing a fucking arm, but you want to call this shit an incident they did, they did well.

Speaker 2:

So one thing to keep in mind this is shibuya instance. If you notice this shibuya instance in a lot of anime because it is based off of a real thing where I think it was not the atomic bomb is obviously well after, but it was like there was an incident in shibuya. I think it was not the atomic bombs obviously well after, but it was like there was an incident in shibuya. I think it was like a gas leak or something that caused a huge explosion, caused multiple people to die. So because it's still kind of a crucial thing like 9-11, like one of the funniest things about it is, we will never put 9-11 in a cartoon. That's just something americans will never do. It's too we will never make a mockery of it. Obviously they have done it.

Speaker 1:

I'm just saying I was going to say Rick and Morty kind of did it.

Speaker 3:

It's not like a reoccurring that happens all the time.

Speaker 2:

But in anime they'll put the Shibuya incidents inside of anime. They'll put that tragedy into it and it'll never be funny.

Speaker 1:

It'll always be something Majorly serious that makes you feel like they were putting time stamps on this shit To where it's like a certain year, like a Unbelievable Years, where I'm like yeah, I can believe that happened at that time.

Speaker 2:

It makes you feel like this really could be another timeline, because in the exact same time, exact same date, but different reason for it, but the same thing happened that's so true.

Speaker 3:

And then?

Speaker 2:

it's like alternate history, like Jojo's yeah so I like about anime the more you know continue that part. That was a lot of people that died in the Shibuya incident, so let's go ahead and keep going. That's what I like about anime, the more you know that part. There was a lot of people that died in the Shibuya incident, so let's go ahead and keep going. When Gojo decided to show the fact that he was Like absolutely badass. And he was like oh, I can do simple domain and I can release my domain For like two seconds.

Speaker 3:

Wasn't it like two tenths Of a second? It wasn't even like Two tenths of a second. Oh, I'm gonna do it like two tenths of a second. It wasn't even like two tenths of a second. Oh, I'm going to do this for two tenths of a second. I'm going to go through and kill everybody. I was watching.

Speaker 1:

He was rushing through him. Barney was like slashing him all. That look in his eye.

Speaker 2:

It was exactly like Devilman Crybaby. It was exactly like Devilman Crybaby.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

He ran through with his arms down, clawing while he was running it was exactly like Devilman Crybaby.

Speaker 3:

It sure was.

Speaker 2:

I want to also talk about the fact that he literally eliminated a major curse, the curse of Earth. Earth threat and hate to humankind, given life in the form of a curse well, a force Mostly, but the force giving Life. He eliminated this person by just what I can't even say looking at her.

Speaker 1:

It was like a spiritual pressure. It's like, uh, he lost the band for band.

Speaker 2:

You can say he said I'm just gonna let you get Closer and closer to me till you die. And this is like, bro, what the fuck raps it.

Speaker 1:

Um, that is a 300 dollar borrowed dr slapped on a goofy button up, something your broke-ass nostrils isn't accustomed to. But you want to go band for band with nothing but cheek wood essence I'm not gonna lie to you though I need to go rewatch.

Speaker 3:

I should have rewatched it before this, cause it did have me rolling, but Volcano Head. Volcano Head got on my nerves.

Speaker 1:

Um.

Speaker 2:

Look.

Speaker 1:

Keep in mind for understanding His main thing.

Speaker 2:

Keep in mind for understanding his main thing, keep in mind for his thing into this. He knew that everything was gone. So when Sukuna awoken and then wound up saying come on, we're going to go ahead and do this, it was it. He already knew he was going to die. He was just one of those ones where I might as well die in the most badass way possible. Maybe I might win. Obviously there was no chance of that, but badass way possible, maybe I might win. Obviously there was no no chance of that, but to him. Maybe I might win. But even if I didn't, I died. To the king of curses, I went out epically per se, an incident that two people fight sequence like we've seen in most other anime tropes, including one One Piece where literally two dudes were so immensely powerful who should never clash because it will cause all types of issues to destroy an entire town. I mean, he's a living volcano.

Speaker 3:

The shame.

Speaker 2:

Never. But also I want you to understand the baddest part about it. It too, is that this dude has never won a fight. He's been clapped every single time he's been in a fight every single god darn time.

Speaker 3:

That's why he get on my nose. Every time he came back on the screen, I was like please, please, just go ahead and lose again, because I know this was gonna happen honestly.

Speaker 1:

That's why I said that on his death was actually kind of funny, because I'm like this is a fairly appropriate way to where. It's like okay, uh, sukuna, this is like you know, I'm just gonna shoot you right in the eye with the fucking arrow.

Speaker 2:

No, no, not even that. He said I'm gonna play by your game. Fire for fire, and literally was like my fire was hotter than yours, oh man the anime for that shit though volcano, exactly, but to a literal volcano, and said my fire is hotter than yours. The only person you can imagine saying that is eskenor yes, my son runs brighter than yours. You put out my son who decided that Lil' nigga. I'm getting a little loud, I'm sorry, I'm like Volcano.

Speaker 1:

Shit. Where I come from, a volcano is like a hot spring.

Speaker 2:

No, no, where I'm from, volcano is like a little match.

Speaker 3:

It's just a little spritz in the shower. You know what I'm saying Spritz, spritz.

Speaker 2:

One little pop of hot grease out the pan.

Speaker 3:

That's exactly. That's exactly what Super said. I the fact that he had the I don't even want to say the audacity, because he's Sukuna, but it's just like I'm going to just choose fire Because I can.

Speaker 2:

And I want you to also understand Fire is not Sukuna's Main Curse that he's able to tap into. That's not his main thing, that's not his weakest, but it's one of his weakest. So that makes it even more like upsetting you, just like I'm not even gonna go full power on you, I'm gonna go like 22 girl from you, haka show, I'm gonna show you 20% of my power. The most disrespectful thing is when old boy literally grabs the two towers and sets them ablaze, slams them onto Sakuna and Sakuna pops out in the Jesus Christ cross. Bro, I have arisen to clap your cheeks.

Speaker 3:

Popped up looking like Jesus. He did that. Man popped up looking like jesus, he did this. Man popped up looking like jesus. I was like whoa, I couldn't honestly the two buildings, though when he would have popped up I would have been like I'm dead.

Speaker 2:

I just would have played dead, that's it there's also a small little easter egg in there as well too. So I'm putting this aspect because it's very similar to how in Beauty and the Beast I'm going way back where Gaston when he finally died, when he was about to die at the end, when he fell off the tower, when they zoomed in onto his eye, you could see the skulls inside his eye as a signification of death. So they had something very similar like that. Um, that happened with sakuna right before he, uh, was about to mollywop this dude right after the whole jesus christ incident.

Speaker 2:

there's a single frame and, like I appreciate cj the champ on youtube because he pointed this one out, because he said it gave him nightmares, because he wound up pausing at the wrong time we where, literally, like sakuna is dashing in order to attack him, and there's one singular frame where it's not sakuna yuji's face, it's a complete demonic face. And it's one frame so it happens in a quick flash and it's done on purpose to send a demonic signal to your brain, a dark, uncomfortable feeling to your brain, that moment where you feel like, oh shit, he's about to hit me. Obviously you're watching the fight, but it feels like you're about to take the brunt of the attack, like Saitama in his giant death or in recent time, Luffy fighting Rob Luffy.

Speaker 2:

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, with that moment where everything went quiet. Yeah, just popped up out of nowhere, but no, for real.

Speaker 1:

I'm like nah, you're fighting a demon right now. That part.

Speaker 2:

So, literally, there was this one scene where Sukuna's face is completely disfigured into an absolute demonic, monster-like form. And it's one singular frame but it does a quick flash and it sends an uncomfortable signal to your brain. It's one of those ones that I have to give literally studio mappa a great applause into that, because there are movies that do this where they'll have like singular frames with something where it seems like something kind of flashes and you're just like what is that? But when you pause at that right moment or you catch that frame, you're like, oh, it's one singular frame, but it's purposely meant to flash, to send an uncomfortable signal into your brain to let you know that something dark, demented, evil, something that makes you uncomfortable, is supposed to happen. And they did that on purpose during this fight to make you feel that, oh, my goodness, sakuna is about to do too much on purpose. Excellent job into that.

Speaker 3:

I agree that was absolutely horrifying. But speaking of little nuggets, did y'all catch the Joaquin Phoenix Joker in the subway? Did y'all catch him getting clapped? I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 2:

When I saw that I was like what joker doing in shibuya like well, no, it's well known that gaga actually does like um, does like dc, does like dc movies and stuff too that singular moment right before he died was hilarious between that and the whole jennifer lawrence references and whatnot.

Speaker 1:

I'm pretty sure that gege is just pretty much filling up whatever he likes in this shit.

Speaker 2:

Like you're just gonna see a lot of references like real life references true, alright now we got to talk about the one thing we don't want to talk about, because I know I'm running out of time, but I know I need to talk about this one too the motherfucker Makito. I hate that dude man and I want you to understand.

Speaker 1:

It became shocking to me when we had this right, but it came very interesting to me when we had this Fucking knockoff Igaraki, motherfucker Right.

Speaker 2:

But it came very interesting to me when we found out that apparently he was not I'm not going to say not supposed to die as far as writing. But we found out at the very end that all of a sudden, when old girl shows up and we ain't seen her since the flashback between Gojo, but when she shows up and she's like, hey, isn't there a cursed spirit that's able to, like, transfigure humans into different ways, and I'm like, yeah, he killed him and absorbed his power. He did damn. That boy was not supposed to die understanding reading that was sitting here in the fact. I'm like, so y'all knew this cursed spirit that literally could go around transfiguring humans and just doing eternal tortures and stuff and you purposely left him alive yeah understand.

Speaker 2:

Are you serious? You purposely left him alive. You knew he was there why okay?

Speaker 2:

it's one of those ones of like governmental situations like, uh was like government will always talk about the fact that we're doing a war on terror and stuff like that, but some terrorists will always stay alive, like even when they say when finally obama went to office and finally osama bin laden was caught and killed, and it was that moment of people who were like there was, that happened too quick. That happened so quick that either they knew where he was at the whole time and purposely left him alive, or they in order to try to milk out the war on terror, in order to constantly milk out taxes and things like that, or it was a case of they really were not trying to find him because they wanted to milk it out. And that's pretty much what, like the biggest things that circulated with how fast, as soon as Obama gets in office, they find him, kill him Like within what? Two months? I think it was Two to three months.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Of him being in office, if I was president.

Speaker 2:

And it was one of those moments that you're like, holy shit, yeah, this is what's happening, like you were milking out on this point. And it makes sense because there are certain curses that they purposely leave alive in order to create situational stuff to happen. Keep in mind what Mahito does he can, he transfigures humans that he could turn them into monsters. So there are multiple times in the first season where you start, where literally there were other monsters that they fought and they were automatically knew. Oh, mahito is doing this because we knew, because we got introduced to him, and we're like, oh, they're gonna find him and finally take him down. But they were understanding no wait, they've been finding these monsters other places. They knew they purposely kept him alive because it kept the need for Jujutsu.

Speaker 1:

Sorcerers to keep working. Not only that, but let's be real. Mahito only lost because plot demanded it, Because, think about it he yeah, he was losing against Yuji and shit, but in reality it was more like hey, you know what Gero was like? Hey, you know what I need your power, so I'm just gonna turn you into a Maruban Ichi.

Speaker 2:

Pretty much a.

Speaker 1:

Majin Buu type situation. So really he was never really killed, it was more like yeah, you know what? Yeah, let me just absorb you.

Speaker 2:

And you know. But there's also one thing Mahito was really clapping Yuji At first when Nanami died, obviously it hit Yuji At first. When Nanami died, obviously it hit Yuji and he was instantly like I'm going to have to kill you, but he was losing focus. It took a moment for him to refocus himself. So it was three times that Yuji had to be saved in his fight against Mahito. So it was three times, and each one involved either someone dying or becoming majorly injured. However, there was only one person, his, well, we can now say brother, and I'm not talking about Toto, but his actual brother. I can say that because they did say it in the anime, but also it is fully confirmed in the manga too.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

He's the only one that recovered.

Speaker 1:

No, hold on, hold on. If we're talking about Chozo, let me back it up a little bit. I want to talk about how, back in season one, he was fighting an old buddy with a face on his back and all that shit. And then, essentially, he was a death painting too. So Yuji killed one of his own brothers while realizing that was his brother.

Speaker 2:

What's crazy is kind of the trope that yuji kept saying like he didn't have a brother and it's so, it's one of those ones where it's one of those ones imagining that your dad was gone and you know, you had this whole idea that your dad had died into a car accident. This is not. I'm not speaking from personal experience, it's not what happened to me, I'm just saying but, whatever reason, you just assume that your dad is dead and then all of a sudden you find another, like a person that's claiming to be your brother and stuff like that and you find out that apparently your dad was alive, abandoned you and went to a whole nother family and gave, made more kids, and this person is coming to find you, I Whoa hold on hold on I don't have a brother.

Speaker 2:

What are you talking about?

Speaker 1:

Hold on, hold on, hold on. This is getting confusing, because it's like he really called him his dad, though.

Speaker 2:

So I'm going to put it in this aspect here. I'm going to put it in this aspect here because obviously the manga does not do the best job in explaining it. They do kind of explain it in the anime, but it's not a good job in explaining it.

Speaker 1:

It took people really kind of diving in and putting stuff together, because first off, I understand what you were doing, but technically like, come on why?

Speaker 2:

Hold on hold on, hold on, no, no. This is the easiest way I can explain this. Okay, you remember Batman. Beyond the final episode. Hold on hold on, no, no, this is the easiest way I can explain this. Okay, you remember, uh, batman. Beyond the final episode where we finally understand that terry is bruce wayne's biological son, but it wasn't by bruce wayne himself, kind of like on some whole mystique.

Speaker 2:

Mystique can transform into anything type of nonsense, but, um, that's literally what happened for the death paintings. So what happened? Is that Geto well, not really Geto, I forgot the dude's real name but the brain, yeah, ganjaka's able to. He emits his own cursed energy, so he put his energy, he put his brain inside of Yuji's parent, or I forgot which one, I think it was his mom, yeah, his mom. And so by doing that, he was infused with the cursed energy of not just his parents, but also him as well, and that's what caused him to have like but hold on.

Speaker 1:

This is why I say, first of all, this is why I say he had three parents and, second of all, this is why I say he's into some gross shit, because I'm like, you chose the mother, so I'm like, so you chose to get to get. Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

Wait a minute. We tried to save you from it, but. I guess we're here now.

Speaker 2:

This is mama. Literally understand, understand, yes, understanding the fact of saying oh, get some showing up, oh, I'm your mama. The same way, Mystique. Now, all of a sudden, says oh, I'm your daddy.

Speaker 1:

I'm that nigga in the X.

Speaker 3:

Yes, my boy, I'm your pusher man. No, he really is the pusher man Because he pushes the yes, and that is why Yuji's no, he really is the pusher man cause he pushes the yes, and that is why Yuji's mom died on his birth, because his mom technically was already dead. That makes so much more sense, I mean that means the dad committed necrophilia yeah, but then no.

Speaker 2:

But also keep in mind this this is something very, very important. I want you to understand because I'm I'm gonna spoil this in the manga, but it's not. It's not as important because the way the story's been going, it doesn't seem like it's going to be as important anymore because they've completely changed how things went. But the way that it seemed like it was originally written. Getto purpose was this was the only time Geto became the mom of the death painting. To all of Yuji's brothers, to all of the other ones. He was the dad. He purposely became the mom in order to produce a perfect vessel for Sukuna. Literally, on some eyes and ass, shit, it was all on purpose yes, it was all on purpose.

Speaker 3:

I planned this whole thing they should have killed it's door a long time ago. I mean I do not want to find out my existence like that, like I would. I would just be like y'all should have killed me.

Speaker 2:

But understand, understand, like that's why I say, based on how the manga's going, that's been completely thrown out now, like that's still what was supposed to happen, but it's been now completely thrown out Because it's a whole different body that Sukuna's in, as everyone now knows because of the spoiler, with the whole gojo gojo die situation. But even with that it's everyone knows that it's megami that's now the host and is apparently is a better host than usually it's supposed to be no everyone knows this now no no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 3:

We gotta go back because, I'm gonna be honest with you, that was way more shocking and way more hurtful.

Speaker 1:

You know, what. Perfect segue. Let's talk about Megumi real quick. Let's talk about how he summoned Big Raga, the op stopper. And no, the funny part is, when he summoned the dude, he was like he had that face. He was like he's feeling so confident, he's feeling so good about himself, like, oh yeah, I'm about to fuck you. And then face, he's like he's feeling so confident, he's feeling so good about himself, like, oh yeah, I'm about to fuck you. And the next thing, you know, raga just bitch laughing out of the way.

Speaker 2:

I'm like, damn you're going to do Megumi like that. I thought I was going to talk about the fact that Megumi got his ass clapped by his own daddy and then his daddy decided to.

Speaker 2:

So I'm like oh, what am I going to do, son? I'm broke. I know who. Jjk has his own way into it, but it's funny honestly. To me it's funny the most into the show and the fact that he's like he's clapping Megumi's ass, like just knocking him around left and right about to kill him, and then at that one moment he realizes who he is and as soon as he realizes, oh, this is my son, fuck child support.

Speaker 3:

And then claps that's exactly what he said in the uh, official anime.

Speaker 1:

It was more like he was, um whooping his ass because, you know, it's more like a naruto type situation. You know, like reincarnation jutsu is like going around, um beating up folks. And then he got to Megumi and I was like okay, I'm going to test you out. So he was pretty much winning for the most part. And then he was about to just make news about doing like a sacrifice or whatnot, and he told you like hold up what's your name. And he's like Bushiguro. I was like you know what? I'm so glad you're not going by those Zen and clan motherfuckers, I'm really glad that you're not one of them. So I'm like you know what? I'm just gonna off myself. Man, I'm proud of you, my boy.

Speaker 2:

He was not proud. He was proud of Gojo for saying that. That's me.

Speaker 1:

That's me saying that. That's the gist of what happened like.

Speaker 2:

I'm glad.

Speaker 1:

Gojo.

Speaker 3:

Gojo became the pseudo father and was paying child support.

Speaker 2:

It's okay, sorry that's pretty much what it was.

Speaker 1:

Gojo adopted Mamie forget that let's rewind let's rewind back to the hidden inventory parts. Where didn't gojo kill toji?

Speaker 3:

but toji left the. That's exactly what I was gonna say hold on, wait, a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

Speaker 1:

If that's the case, then I like to see this part. Like yo, just looking at toji is like I will raise your son as my own.

Speaker 3:

That's but Toji basically gave him the responsibility.

Speaker 2:

He was like hey, bruh right before I die man uh my son Damn, I gotta get off, but hold on.

Speaker 1:

It's like a Batman and. Robin type shit.

Speaker 2:

But my thing about it is how did Gojo fail so horribly? That's the only thing for me, and I say it in this aspect here, and I say it in this aspect here. Megumin has been getting his cheeks clapped since the first episode and has not won a single time. Every single time he's about to die and he's like oh no, I need to do the sacrificial death summon. I'm sorry for whatever casualties is going to happen after this.

Speaker 1:

I guess, if he doesn't turn out to be a total Sasuke clone to where, like, okay, he can't be too overpowered Like he gotta lose, he gotta take a dive like bro a few times.

Speaker 2:

But they turned that up to like 10, 10,000, because he has not won a single. Every single time he gets into a fight, have you noticed that? He doesn't even get no clean? Even if he gets a clean hit in, it does nothing. Nope, literally every single. Whether it was a cursed spirit, a jujutsu sorcerer, toto molly whopped the hell out of his ass. We know this.

Speaker 1:

You have to say it like that.

Speaker 2:

You fucking bore me you have to say it like that my man, literally my man went up to him and said what's your taste in women? And he said oh my god, you have such terrible taste. The world is going to be better without you, he had little tears rolling down his eyes Before he walked in.

Speaker 1:

You are so lame.

Speaker 2:

Like that one Hashirama From Demon Slayer every single time Before he killed him. I'm so sorry that I have to mark your way. Bless your soul as it goes to the afterlife, because you was weak as hell alive all right yeah I'm not to be on way.

Speaker 2:

We get a chance to talk about a sign that do want to specifically mention. My biggest. I felt so bad. I did break down and cry with you with UG Um.

Speaker 2:

I felt that when he finally was given his body back after Sukuna caused the destruction and specifically went to a very specific spot so that way youji could see the mass murder and mayhem and that actually very much affects Yuji um in the manga, that becomes a main plot point for him, uh, for him, not just for his development, but for him as far as what's going to happen at the beginning of the Cullen game arc, because he he took that very, very heavily.

Speaker 2:

So we're going to get a chance to see that more in season three, because that it wasn't just him breaking down there, it was much worse than how it seemed. It fucked him up horribly and he still holds that guilt even currently in the manga right now, even though sakuna is not in his body right now. He still holds the guilt of that because he feels guilty in the fact that he allowed himself to get beaten down to the point that he can no longer hold sakuna back. So that was a very, very emotional moment and one that was like god damn sakuna, you are one evil ass, motherfucker. Because I mean, I think he made it pretty obvious in season one that he does not give a fuck. Like god damn sakuna, you are one evil ass motherfucker cause shit.

Speaker 1:

I mean, I think he made it pretty obvious in season one that he does not give a fuck about yuji.

Speaker 2:

It's not like karama so originally he didn't give a fuck about yuji. Now he gives a fuck in the fact that he purposely wants to torture yuji. Now it's becoming to the point where it's becoming personal and on purpose, and Sukuna has made that very clear. He makes that very clear in the manga. He's purposely torturing Yuji. That's one of his biggest things right now. But that's all the time that I got, so I'll let y'all finish up. Definitely had some good laughs, had some good fun. Glad I was able to speak to you guys until next podcast whether it be a nerdy talk, whatever it is I'm gonna be on I will talk to y'all next time alright, man, you take it easy all right now.

Speaker 1:

What else going on with, uh, the incident art that I want to talk about? Um, because so far we got to pretty much? Um, what else going on with the Shibuya incident art that I want to talk about, because so far we got to pretty much most of the good bits?

Speaker 3:

I do want to piggyback off of Kokugatsu really quickly, just because that moment really was heartbreaking and I think it solidified Sukuna as one of the worst Villains in anime history of all time. Cause just the thought pattern Behind. I'm gonna make my vessel. The person In me, the person that I'm being Held in, suffer Extreme trauma. Not regular. Oh, I killed and I know this isn't normal, but oh I killed one of your family members. No, no, no, no.

Speaker 1:

I need you to see the devastation and destruction that I caused with your body yes, like, essentially, it's like you are a passenger in your own body and this mass murderer is just going around killing people and you just got no choice but to take the blame for it. That's why Yuji's in the trouble that he's in now because, like we know, it's Sukuna that was in charge of your body. But since you're the host of that hurt spirit, it's like you're still responsible for it. So you know, yeah, and also keep in mind, like you're still responsible for it. So you know, yeah, like, and also keep in mind you're the one who chose to eat the um fucking finger in the first episode. So, uh, it's kind of on you. Uh, we're not gonna feel sorry for you, and that's kind of how it is with um, the schools where they they're waiting to have ug kills. So I'm like this dude is fucked you know what?

Speaker 3:

bringing that up right the finger moment, why did see? This is exactly why I hate Volcano Head. Why. Why did he think feeding Itadori that many amount of fingers would just like? I understand the purpose behind it, but why?

Speaker 1:

no, uh, the funny thing is he was really banking on sukuna to be like hey, so you're a curse fear. You should, um, support our cause. Right, I'm gonna look here, all y'all we compared to me. I don't even need y'all, so I don't know why you're trying to uh do me a favor. I'm like anything, you're just wasting. Well, you're helping me out, but, uh, you're not getting anything out of this. If anything, I'm probably just gonna kill you when I get the chance. So, like, just like, um, how you fucking uh woke up and you know you were just saying that jogogo was beating him all those fingers and then he was like slashed a little bit off the top of Volcano Head, jogo's head, and then he saw this one girl trying to take a video of him, then slash her head off and all that shit, like yeah, those girls were just as stupid too.

Speaker 3:

Mimi Cole and Nana Cole deserved everything they got.

Speaker 3:

Yep Every got yep every god, because, why? Why would you go when all the bad things everyone knows about sakuna, right like, we know the danger, we've heard all of the terrible rumors and they're like, oh, he's totally gonna help us get back ghetto's body, absolutely what? What thought pattern? No, no, especially mimiko trying to sit up here and use her little camera phone thingy to do what? The way, oh, I will say the animation of her dying was crazy. That many slices and she just looked like little mini ice cubes.

Speaker 1:

That junk was crazy many slices and she just looked like little mini ice cubes. That junk was crazy. Okay, was there anything else to add? I mean, other than you know the final fight with Mahito and, I guess, ghetto. And it's funny how Miwa thought she was doing something with that fucking sword like on, cut on Ghetto. And then, well, pseudo ghetto. And then next thing, you know, uh, pseudo ghetto.

Speaker 1:

Like, did this whole fucking shit? That looked like something straight out of a nightmare or like some shit, and then it was gonna kill Miwa until, uh, old buddy, uh kuzukabe I think it was his name, I forgot his name, but, uh, he showed up, saved her and whatnot. Um, and then there's this now big ass hole well, not really a hole, but more like it's just this one dark spot in shibuya and, yeah, pretty much ever since then, um, ghetto well, pseudo Ghetto is said to be around. So he still got hit out on him, uh, gojo, since he pretty much kicked off the whole Shibuya incident in the first place, uh, well, it's not really his fault, but more like he was a? Um, main target in this whole thing, to where it's like, um, the main reason why all this happened was because he was being targeted. So, um gojo's, now considered not a sorcerer and he got hit out on him.

Speaker 1:

uh, yaga got a hit out on him for hiring both ghetto and gojo. Um, yuji is getting heat for shit that Sukuna did and Yuta is going to kill Yuji, and that's pretty much Shibuya Incident. Yeah, that sounds a lot Wow, god damn, it's crazy Like a lot.

Speaker 1:

Wow, goddamn, it's crazy. A lot of shit happened in this one RSC and that's a great way to where season one was cool and all Especially, you know character kind of make us feel something for the character before shit gets crazy, and shit got crazy in this season it definitely got real crazy and a lot of your favorite characters you just thought weren't gonna be.

Speaker 3:

You know, you thought they were gonna be here forever.

Speaker 1:

They weren't Nanami man yeah, yeah, not one of those shows, I'm sorry kids.

Speaker 3:

I'm sorry kids. That's so true, though can we say sorry to the adults too?

Speaker 1:

yeah, we can say sorry to the ghost.

Speaker 3:

I'm sorry, but um what do you think? What's your estimated kill count? Cause I know what my estimate was.

Speaker 1:

I wanna say about 8 like.

Speaker 1:

I mean like in general, like in all of the Shibuya incident oh, no, like, yeah, that's what I'm saying like at least 8 noticeable. Like, oh, let me check. Um, yeah, okay, all right, because I know I researched this before. Yeah, it was like eight. Uh, there was mahito nobara nanami. Uh, the old man, zenon um jogo daggone, that's the thing. Um, I'll keep forgetting, forgetting that dude's name, the blonde dude, dagon, that was his name. Hanami, the guy with Wood curse, and there was Kokichi Muta, like At least 8 people.

Speaker 3:

So I.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that was um Mikamaru Mutu. Was Mikamaru my bad?

Speaker 3:

okay, and so I guess, including those. I guess that would put it like, because I'm estimating, including like regular humans too, um, and what's the Sukuna destroyed? Just estimating, including like regular humans too, um, and what's the sakuna destroyed? Just estimating um octopus.

Speaker 3:

Dude my bad so there's like nine or ten so like nine or ten main ones, and then I'd say like probably like 2500 regular, like this kill count was insane. I ain't gonna lie to you, I was definitely blown away by the amount of destruction in this season. I don't think I don't think I've seen I'm gonna say this I don't think I've seen a newer anime, don't think I've seen a newer one other than JJK, who's had this high of destruction and a kill count.

Speaker 1:

Aaron Yeager.

Speaker 3:

That was a reasonable kill count.

Speaker 1:

We are not. You know what I'm in. Alright, ladies and gentlemen, you heard us rant and ramble long enough. We are closing out on the Jujutsu Kaisen review Pretty much what Kogigatsu was saying. I want to say A solid 4 out of 5. I mean I'm not Discounting it, it's just, you know it was great, but you know, kind of like with the old man, it's like it's nothing. You know it was great, but you know, kind of like with the old man, it's like it's nothing new. I'm like, hey man, like he's like some, some of the trolls have been recycled from other anime manga series, but it's not bad. It's just, you know, just not that surprising now that, uh, we've seen shit like this before. So, with that being said, um, we already said, we already did our shameless plug in the beginning. So that's pretty much it. We're just gonna say goodnight y'all Unless Mira Jane. You got something else to add on?
