      You know, I genuinely think this show is evil.
      Like the show it's self. They do a bunch of stuff to hurt the characters and make them suffer.
      Like replaying Nanami's meeting with Mahito, or showing us Yuji through Nobara's eye hole, or playing the ending seconds before Amanai gets killed...
      Or that extended shot of Gojo's body after his fight with Toji.

    Whenever jjk season 1 came out i watched it all the way through and liked it but i didn’t really love it immediately, but that scene specifically was the reason i got into the manga fully, i feel like every anime has this moment/troupe where the theme/ending plays after something big happens, but barely anyone talks about it, i think that they did such a really great job bc of the song choice, it kinda feels almost maniacal and empty, paired with yuji’s face of absolute despair and the fact that they actually have people pushing back on it makes it one of my favorite use of that troupe

    I actually really loved it. Especially the guitar rifts playing as the full scope of sukuna's horror was on screen. I was so into the episode that nothing could break my immersion. Plus my heart was bleeding for Yuji. I loved it. HOWEVER. Upon seeing people edit the song on other traumatic scenes. I can see why people dont like it. Like someone put it over a certain death in one piece(I wont specifiy since I know you're just getting into it) and it really threw off the scene was very funny

    I really like what they did with the song- Its very natural to do in anime and intense shows to play the intro or outro during the final(or even spmetimes first) scene of the episode to maximize impact.
    This does not imply that it couldn't have been better with some simple suspense tones and a light crescendo build-up to a crushingly silent black screen... still love what was done

    The you are my special is the theme for the shibuya incident.. and needless to say Sukuna destroying shibuya… is the shibuya incident. But just like the intro you get the sense that regardless of whatever horror & despair that is in store nobody can do anything but walk towards it and reconcile the event. And that’s what Yuji does in that moment.
    It’s good and anyone who disagrees. Should get black flashed. For they are my special.

    I think it would’ve been better to have it play when Yuji sees Nanami get killed by Mahito. While I don’t absolutely hate it like other people, I saw this scene blind for the first time and felt like it would’ve been so much harder had Yuji just stood there in shock of all the death the rampage cause, maybe some scenes of dead bodies or remains of people caught in the domain. Really drive home how devastating it was. The that dark somber moment, then have Yuji breakdown. Wondering why he’s even alive to begin with.

    i honestly dont get why people dislike the song playing
    i think personally silence or not it works perfectly.
    in this case it would be a great way to provoke a reality into the viewer, that everyone will suffer because of sukuna and kenjaku if they don't take them seriously.
    the opposite can be said for the silence aswell, it provokes reality aswell but in this case proves that in a blink of a eye everything can go south, it isn't a fun game.
    it basically implicates the same effect through a different method.

  • @Falldawn73
    @Falldawn73 7 дней назад

    Oh it was hype as hell to me. It's like Sukuna taunting Yuji, him being kenjaku's "special" and the world laughing at Yuji all in one. Like imagine the absolute worst day you've ever had and then you start to get laughed at for it. Imo really pushed the feeling of being powerless.

    @yurimaldonado4966 9 дней назад

    I liked it a lot since i'm a manga reader so i was already aware of the "Suffering builds character" joke Gege likes to pull with Yuji. I think people who had negative reactions to it where just not in the vibe of laughing at Yuji with Sukuna, so maybe if the anime showed a few frames of Sukuna laughing, maybe inside the domain with some crazy pleased face like "aah, music to my ears" as Yuji screamed and cried outside, more people would have got it

    It gives the dark vibe, about villains winning this round season.
    Yk, they put right after yuji got breakdown so it gives me like "the evil win"
    But after reading the song test it has more sense, even tho it's not how i said, it still gives very dark vibe.
    It's really good song, pretty experimental and unique.

Its also painful for Yuji because up to this point, he really thought he was doing the best he could do, but it simply wasnt enough. Fate (gege) had other plans. This moment just makes me think: Poor Yuji.

    This moment was literally the equivalent to mahito yelling back at yuji after killing nanami, it’s a “this ain’t no fairytale where good guys win” moment and the only ppl that hate it are the weebs who’re used to watching isekais all of the time, so when a show like jjk shows then realism in any capacity, they go brain rot and immediately hates it with no real logic

    SPECIALZ itself is a very hypnotic and evil sounding song. It encapsulates the chaos and carnage caused by Sukuna as well as the Shibuya arc's dark themes perfectly.
    The song playing during Yuji's lowest is quite literally telling us how fucked and dark of a story it has now become. The point of no return in JJK.
