Feedback of Episode 5 of Anime Jujutsu Kaisen, by a Super Addicted Jujutsu Kaisen Otaku!

Hi guys! It’s Hana from Manga Republic!

Let me share my feedback of the latest episode of Anime Jujutsu Kaisen this week too!!

Following the week before last, the ending of Episode 4 made us feel that trouble was brewing but in Episode 5, which aired this week, we see such a turn of events!

Here’s the previous article, sharing my feedback of Episode 4!

All right then…… What was the best part about Episode 5??

In the first part A!

Sukuna, who takes Itadori’s body hostage, and Fushiguro, have a one-on-one battle! Not only the action scene itself but the scene, where Fushiguro’s dignity as a Jujutsushi was seen, was super cool, huh~~?

In Episode 4, when Fushigoro said ‘I don’t intend to save (the rest of the inmates, left in the site),’ Itadori asked him back, ‘Then why did you bother saving me?’ In this episode, the answer to that question is revealed.

He has his ‘personal feeling,’ where he wants to create the world, where ‘more good people can have an equal life,’ by playing the perfect role as the sorcerer who assists judging the criminals under the law. Jujutsushi is not the hero who always has to save people no matter if they’re good or bad. That’s why Fushiguro can be himself. I got goosebmups from him saying ‘I will save people unequally’ too……!

This line was used in the anime’s trailer when the voice actors of the characters were first announced too, which makes me realize that this line really represents Fushiguro Megumi…… I like the line ‘I’m not the hero but the sorcerer.’ too……

And in this part, the true color of the woman, who is seen only for a moment at the end of the opening, got revealed too!

The detailed relationship between her and Fushiguro will be revealed at the end of Season 2, so for now, I will not talk about it but…… You know, Saori-chan appears in the opening too, just like Tsumiki, so I’m assuming that all the characters who appear in the opening (at around 1’07”) might have influenced Itadori, Fushiguro, Kugisaki and Gojo as a sorcerer respectively……?

Fushiguro was influenced by Tsumiki, and Kugisaki was influenced by Saori-chan. And who has influenced Itadori? As you can see in the third picture above, it should be the character appearing with Itadori. Yes, the one in a robe in the fourth picture has influenced him……!?

Yeah, but the one in a robe, finally appeared!!!!!!

For me, who enjoy Jujutsu Kaisen, subscribing Weekly Shonen Jump, it’s too impressive at the fact that he first appeared on Halloween…… I mean, I had been waiting for that moment for such a long time!!!!! I love him so much just like Gojo!!!!!! Finally, he moved!!!!! He moved and talked!!!!!! I’m so happy!!! I was so happy that I even cried, watching him……

All the enemy chara are lined up!! As for the special-grade curse spirit who appeared in the reform school, we found out that they were the one who set it up…… Like the one in a robe, all the chara look grotesque……! Seeing the chara in colors and actually moving in anime, I feel like they have even more curses in them……!

And! There is a new chara in Jujutsushi side too! The doctor, Ieiri Shoko with such an attractive ennui facial expression, and the 2nd-year-students-trio, Maki, Panda and Toge!!!

Now something new is coming up, which is the event called the ‘Kyoto Sister School Meetup’. Fushiguro and Kugisaki have lost their buddy, Itadori, shortly after they first met him. Probably, the story will focus on these two now, as the main protagonist and the heroine……?

That’s what we thought but……!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sakuna……? I thought he would die if Itadori died, no……? What……? And he even said ‘brat’…… That’s what we all would think, right~???? Yeah~ the story ended at the best scene! I’m telling you! I always feel one episode is just a five-minute long…… Deep content and beautiful image…… It’s just so awesome……!

Why are Itadori and Sukuna still alive? If you want to know the truth, why don’t you read the original comics before you find it out in anime???

In Manga Republic, we offer the whole set of the original comics, from vol.0 to 13, with a great deal, commemorating Anime ‘Jujutsu Kaisen’’s broadcasting! It’s the individual comics, newly drawn, along with the characters’ profiles!!! Don’t miss it out too!!!

Episode 1 to 5 of anime is equivalent to the middle of vol. 2 of the comics. And In Episode 5 of vol.0, where you see the 2nd-year-student trio, is so interesting and I would recommend it too……! You will be able to enjoy fully even if you have watched only until Episode 5 of anime! And you might wonder about so many things too!!! Go check it out!!!!

All right! I’ll see you all at the next article! Bye~~~~~~!
