Noted
there are some mistakes I made in this video
-Maki is not in the video, and but I put it in the thumbnail
-Inumaki and Utahime s1 & s2 were accidentally swapped
-Gakuganji both are from season 1
I hope you still enjoy this video and thank you for watching
you mean are from season 1?
@@Haz_Oni yes💀
What did you edit it with bro? I wanted to make comparison videos too
KineMaster
Oh yeah! Another mistake you made is you spelled Yuta’s name wrong. It’s Yuta and not Yuuta but I don’t wanna be that grammar nerd tho
Now compare conditions of mappa workers in both seasons 💀
It was almost just as bad in S1 because they barely had time between the end of god of highschool and jjk
@@TheSiZaGamingyeah but I think much more people quit during season 2
@@Darkion-ed2me Freelancers can't quit
It was probably just as bad
S1: dying
S2: deceased
S1 art style was peak, but the animation in s2 is on another level
your opinion is unpredictable😄
It's the opposite for me. Preferred the animation of s1 but like the s2 art style better
@@Ryosucc25Same
Look the same to me but more quality and light effect in season 2
More like generic lmao, that’s not good
At least megumi doesnt look like a sea urchin no more
Lol😂
Sea urchin 😭😭😭
😂
He looked better in s1 imo, in the goodwill and blind obedience arcs. Before that, no
but it was so funny
Season 2 feels more serious, while season 1 is more of a "typical" anime art style
s1 looks like it was made by another studio, but with MAPPA quality
Yea
Imo u got it reversed
日本人からすると1期の制服はテカテカすぎた😂
nah you got it reversed, s1 had a unique art style and a darker vibe. s2 is more flat and looks like your typical anime...
The main problem i had with the S1 were the colour choices than the designs itself, i hated those reflection on the clothes, thankfully S2 corrected that
That there, felt too warm
Oh yeah and the excess use of reflections on just every surface
Overall season 2 felt crisper and cold, fitting the tone
@@averagegenzguy2751 if you remember the scene of nobara pouring coffee on gojo's shirt, some of that scenes were made by tadashi hiramatsu, character designer of S1, his design also shines with S2 colours(goofy expression ones and the first yuji shot are by hiramatsu btw)
I think the highlights on the clothes were meant to show the type of material that they wore. I always imagined their outfits as being leather-like in its feel, so I liked it. Even in Season 2, I thought that.
Season 1 had better lighting and looked like it was animated on a computer. Season 2 has little to no lighting and has darker tones, with a look that makes it seem like it was drawn on paper. Lemme know which one you guys like better.
Of course both is good, but I prefer s2 style
That’s because season 1 had more compositing, literally computer made digital effects while season 2 relied more on raw drawings without as much compositing
It's literally the opposite
season 2 has far better composition and lighting tbh. season 1 just has more details
season 1 had more details, but it really had so many unnecessary details that sometimes looked bad to the point of ruining the animation itself
Season 1 has more polished and detailed renders on the characters which looks great, but season 2 did a great job simplifying them so that they could be more animated and better composited into the backgrounds which was very important since s2 was so action focused.
Is it just me, or they made Sukuna look more like a chad in S2 💀
s1: Funkuna
s2: Chadkuna
Same with nanami
@@Space-Reins3: fraudkuna
His markings got smaller except for the one on his nose that one got bigger
gojo too
Megumi getting a haircut is the best thing that happens in S2.
Boy desperately needed it.
He looks goofy af in S1.
✨ Sea urchins ✨
Nah he looked fire in the blind obedience arc
Fr 😭 I didn’t even notice in season 2 but I remember everytime he was on screen in season 1 I just kept giggling at his hair
They basically made everyone hop on a mewing streak for season 2
Mewing 💀
Is it only me or does Sukuna look more menacing and god-like in S2 than S1?
I feel it too. How they draw Sukuna's head shape in s2 much better then s1
@@SSShun_70 Yeah bro, especially that head part is so true.
Lol , i thought S1 sukuna looks more good than S2 especially of ep 16
@@kikyo3146 Tbh, S1's Sukuna(personally) looked more like a clown to me. S2 was where I finally realized who the real king was.
@omendark-bx1jb Yeah
Don't underestimate the value of the season 1, it is truly great and I re-watched Jujutsu for it. 😢
Rewatch s1 will be fun after you finished s2
Choso looks much better in season 2
He looks too pale
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 Maybe because he uses too much blood or because he is a cursed womb
@@thelegacyofgaming2928that’s how he is supposed to look tho lol
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 hmmm i wonder why
Season 1 Choso lowkey looks hideous
Love the designs in season 2. These mappa animators are just 🔥🔥🔥💯
Overworked + Underpaid
@@BedwarsRBLX 😔
are just notseeing their family for weeks 🔥🔥💯💯
I think they suite their seasons nicely. For Shibuya, the less shaded and desaturated design makes it feel more raw and real when blood is drawn. The original has stronger lighting, but I think both seasons make the most of both styles.
Gojo looks gorgeous in s1, while in s2 just handsome
Agree, but understandable because Shibuya arc has more fight scene
nah bro gojo's eyes looked like shit in season 1😭 and especially the movie like wtf since when was bro a princess
It became less shiny at more movie like
S2 art style is nice but it has a very "im an underpaid overworked animator and i have to make things a bit more simple so i can sleep for 3h"
💀
Ngl every recent movie has a simple art style for more fluid animation and i really like it, not a fan of detailed art style
Megumi's haircut...🗿✨🙂
✨Sea urchins head✨
They looked way more glossy in season 1
Which is fire
@@OkRoomer123-not to me, it's what repelled me from jjk in the first place, I stayed for the story but the oiled up clothing was just eugh to me 😅
am i crazy for thinking that it looks better when everything isnt absurdly shiny and greasy looking (e.g. todo and everyone's hair)
Overall visual and aesthetic of an anime depends on the director. Since jjk had director change, the new director decided to change the overall design and style which suits him better.
The character designer or CD of s1(tadashi hiramatsu) also did not participate in s2 , so one of the sub-character designer of s1 stepped forward as the new CD and using tadashi's s1 designs as base designs, she made changes in the characters according to directors feedbacks of course.
Mains differences are removed highlights and lesser details. There's also new color designer so both season have different colors in characters
Moreover, every drawing in this video is drawn by different animators under different episode directors so the comparison makes little sense. If you want correct comparison, see the character sheets of both seasons.
At the end its just which you prefer, there is no right or wrong.
Great information!
The director in s1 is Sunghoo Park
While s2 is Goshozono Shōta
well spoken
You are right, bro 😊
Personally, I like S2 design more (especially how they redesign Fushiguro's hair, and male characters silhouette to be more board)
The S2 design seems less complicated but also look more modern, the S1 design felt a bit like old school anime which is also unique
Yes, in season 1, the characters look more detailed and tend to have darker themes than season 2.
But both are still good with different styles.
That's because the director is different
Is it just me or they look real sharp without the shiny ness in hair and clothing.
Nobara, Megumi ,Yuji , kenjaku etc are looking same
But except gojo and sukuna. S1 gojo,inumaki and sukuna, was better in artsytle , and character sketch
Everyone is so pale or vibrant depending on the scenes its really interesting to see that contrast depending on the lighting and what’s happening in a scene
Seems align to this depression arc
They made sukuna look like a kid in season one, I’m glad they improved sukuna’s art style and made him look older
Also s1 Sukuna is always laughing and a bit silly, while in the Shibuya arc he looks more serious and menacing
Dang 7 likes is already a lot, the most i got was 31 likes. And yeah I think season one sukuna was laughing too much even though he was so weak compared to the sukuna with 15 fingers eaten. Season 2 sukuna looks more like a formidable opponent as his power went up and was still scary even if he didn’t laugh
Not like Sukuna has the body of a kid or anything
Sarcasm, am I right? 😂
Wait.. is itadori a kid? I mean he is a teenager after all..
S1 looked very vibrant. And it was more detailed with the art. That's probably some of the stuff I miss from S1. I mostly like the less glossy look to the uniforms in S2, and the overall designs for characters like Yuji, Megumi, and Choso look closer to their manga counterparts. The shading being simplified makes it animation friendly. The art *design* for the characters is the same, its really just the amount of shading that they use now
Season 1: Just common slice of life with action hero stuff 😋. Also the animation is still glossy and shiny.
Season 2: This gets way more serious 🗿, not even Juju Stroll is here. The Animation also has no shiny now, it’s almost like Chainsaw Man’s animation, no shiny or glossy, and got better animation.
Season 1 was also dark lol, especially the Junpei arc
Better animation? S1 has perfect animation where action scene are perfect too. It looks consistent and solid, while s2 has mob psycho type animation that doesn’t even fit into the dark atmosphere of jjk. Even official arts by Gege looks more like s1, unlike s2 that is flat and too colorful for depressing anime where mc suffers more than gon. Like even hunter x hunter in serious moments was dark and looking solid as in jjk s1. The best animation that I have seen is was in one punch man, where scenes didn’t look to sharp as it was in s2
@@junkieguy yap
imo
S1 Style > S2 Style
S2 Animation > S1 Animation
Choso vs Itadori animation is just as smooth as S1 animation
Sukuna vs mahorag? @@Space-Rein
S2 style better
I prefer some character designs in season 2 more than season 1. Mahito for example has some weird proportions in S1 when you paused the screen compared to S2 where he looks consistent throughout
Bro what
hello i am your 200th subscriber pin me before getting too famous
Could i pinned you now?
@@Space-Rein thank you for pinning
I belive they actually got very close to the manga art style that was during the ahibuya incident, they learnwd well from gege's drawing habbits and techniques
Exactly, it's look like Gege' animated manga with colors
But the background was amazing
im one of the only people that genuinely like the s2 art style over s1. In my opinion, season 1 is too saturated and detailed
too detailed? How is that a problem? and the saturation isn't bad. It give characters a reddish skin tone around the nose and jaw which has some realism to it
@@shiftyz0152 it makes the animation janky, it's why most of the scenes in s1 were stiff with no actual movement, it looks great when paused but during movement it just feels busy and janky
Yup
Oh no, this book is so informative, well, it sucks, I'm going to read Marvel comics. Damn, this painting is too beautiful - I'm going to look at the wall. Oh shit, this game is so interesting and challenging, I'm going to Fortnite, I'm going to dance stupid dances. Do you understand what I'm getting at?
@@hellstate9212no
Wow, am I really the only one who thinks every design from Season 1 is just so much better???
I prefer the s2 style, but you're not alone actually
I like Season 2's lighter, but more fluid art style; while 1 and 0's was heavier and more detailed.
Both have their strengths!
s1 megumi's hairstyle was so bad bro looked like a off brand goku
His hair was too big😄
Choso had the biggest glow up omg
Some characters' design became worse in season 2 but some characters' design went to next level in season 2
Season 1 has better style and Season 2 has better animation
Not really
Honestly, I think many characters look better in season 2 than their season 1 artstyle
Yes, in s2 they lost disign details but the animation is better
season 1 glossy art style was really ugly
@@itzzyammy5964 yeah just look at Akari Nitta, she looks gorgeous in S2 more!
Tbh, I don’t think it’s soo evident with just single screen caps side by side, rather when you watch the episodes you can see the difference in lighting, animation, and story boarding- plus with season 2, there was a greater variety of style across the episodes due to the greater artistic freedom from the directors. Oddly, while the character sheets seemed simpler in season 2, the actual season seemed to look far more detailed 🤔
Yeah, I think almost all of people who watch this has been finished the Anime too
I liked the s1 artstyle better
Why Sukuna in season 2 looks like Jojo OVA character?🤔🤔🤔
because JJK s1 and s2 have different directors
Geto just looks so much better in season 2 style
I gotta disagree
@@thelegacyofgaming2928nah stop capping
season 1 is definitely more detailed but it makes sense why the style changed
I really don’t like the over used shiny texture on their clothes. Feels like they’re wet or oily.
S2 is what i mostly prefer.
It's literally just like aot's case of change where its mostly seen in the shading department
Naobita seriously underrated. Gege killed him off since he is to strong for Maki to be Itachi in future I guess💀
he had become Logan in Hiroshima
Incel detected
everyone looks oiled up in S1 glad they fixed that in S2
Nitta got the best glowup ngl, smash
1. Yoshinobu Gakiganji was not shown in Season 2. Both clips are from season 1.
2. Toge Inumaki's clips are reversed. The top clip is in Season 1 and the botton clip is in Season 2.
3. Someone forgot Shoko Ieri.
Utahime was also reversed
Shoko in s2 is not shown clearly (except in Hiildden Inventory)
@@Space-Rein Uh when she is talking with Principal Yaga? And I think we all forgot Yuki Tsukumo.
I will explain for people who didnt understand why did they do this change:
1. The character designs were improved in some cases like miwa, choso or megumi just to udjust it more to the manga looks and to make it look prettier
2. Why did they make the hair and skin less details? Jjk is a shonnen, so for logic, it should have battle scenes, the change in har coloring or skin was to make a better and easier animation: if the designs are constantly too detailed, the animation would have had to be less good, at the same time, if the designes are normal and not much detailed the fighting scenes would be much more prettier and cleaner, ans when the moment comes, then they could make a really detailed design for a scene
I love how Sukuna looks is S2. In season 1 his expressions looked too much like Yuji sometimes. like it was Yuji but with tattoos. Idk how to explain it, but he looks more menacing now and his facial expressions make him look like a different person in S2. I think they gave him a bigger jawline and different eyebrows in S2
I just realized that Mahito has the “dead mom” hairstyle.
No i wont unsee this now 😂😂
Now I know why Sukuna looked weird in s2 🙃
Sukuna's face in season 2 often changes
While in s1 the characters shape are more consistent
But I prefer s2 artstyle
I’m hoping season 3 gets that grittiness the Culling Games had, I personally didn’t like that season 1 looks like every other modern Shonen. Gege’s artstyle is so neat with that calligraphy pen sketch look, I’d love to see them attempt to do that.
Thank you so much for making this! Love the music too. ❤️❤️Though, I think you swapped inumaki’s s1 and s2 design by accident. 👍
Art style(Appearance) = S1
Animation = easy S2
Of course the artstyle gonna look different when you take two different examples 😭 they use different animation just to fit the mood and to save time
Damn...never realized how different they were until seeing this. After watching, I actually prefer the S1 character designs.
S2 is familiar to manga style !
I don't know how anyone could prefer s2 artstyle nor animation. It's just worse in every way, less shadows, inconsistent shapes, looks like it was just drawn relatively quickly on paper. Not even talking about the animation because we've seen how that went during the Sukuna/Mahoraga fight 💀💀💀💀
Lmao.. Gojo still looks super good❤😅also I still love S1 animation cus it seemed darker, but S2 is Also amazing
why was the music so "astronomicaly life changing"
Thanks to Scott Buckley😉
Season 1 was better lol these guys be riding hard on season 2
it is very noticeable how Megumi cut his hair in one season, he looked like a man, otherwise the poor guy mowed under a hedgehog
S2 is basically 4K anime😂
actually the opposite.
S1:parasyte the maximum
S2:chainsaw man
Season 1 - Detailed, Structured Animation
Season 2 - Fluid, Flexible Animation
Well season 1 look better
But has to be honest season 2 has a lot fight animation
They make it loom down a bit for a reason
Even if there are few fight scenes in S2, the style will still be different because the director has changed
i prefer s2 it makes sense and realistic idk why some of the people prefer glossy than simple and fluid movement
Yeah, s2 has a smoother movements
Season 1 seems to have noticeably much more shadow in their arts.
I prefer s1 in both artstyle and animation s2 artstyle is weird they shouldn't make it like this
And they changed many angles from manga
I know that they were suppressed then should take more time simply mappa workers are skilled the issue is the CEO
Why does everyone complain about the angles though? They’re not bad
@@Ohg665 I'm not saying they're bad but it would be better if they were just like manga
@@akazagaminga91 I understand that, but still
season 1 is highly detailed while season 2 is cartoonish when characters are in motion
Bro studio mappa gotta give these animators a break in my opinion some of the characters really went down hill
the details in the second season have decreased compared to the previous one, but that still doesn't make it bad and it's still cool
imo they seem more realistic which is cool, but the old designs grew on me😢
@IlI_Hater_IlI How do the less-detailed designs look more realistic?
@@thegreatgamingkid8252compare s1 sukuna to s2 sukuna, I’ll wait
@@thegreatgamingkid8252not all of them are less detailed, lmao give mappa a break😭
My glorious goat gojo looks handsome in both🥰
The characters became more similar to the manga's style
the photos that are shown can't be compared to each other bc of different lightings, rooms and positions
true, but actually the arts style has changed because the director in S1 (Sunghoo Park) has resigned and been replaced by (Shōta Goshozono) in S2. Comparing them side by side is difficult because the Shibuya arc all takes place at night, and S1 is mostly during the day
That taxi driver Nitta girl looks so diffrent
can we talk about the yuta choso and sukuna glow ups
No disrespect but i tthink you may have accidentaly swapped inumakis season one and two designs. But otherwise great video.
That's right, the position is wrong, it's my fault
and utahime
Thanks for your feedback guys🥰
Season 2 feels more fluid, smooth, and light edges with the lining being let loose. While Season 1 had more harder edges, with heavy shadow quality, along with rough details.
Season 2 resembles the manga art style much more accurately and I think it makes the show stand out more from the "typical" anime look
Gege + MAPPA artyle: JJK S2
This transition felt seamless ngl even tho if you compare them they’re pretty different in the finer details
The difference will be felt when you re-watch S1 after the Shibuya arc
season 1 just looks 99% better visually than season 2.
glossy characters ≠ better
@@nps5607 i mean, season 2 just looks like they stopped caring for the visuals ngl, it looked more like a raw sketch with okay animation, season 2 visuals literally look depressing comparing it to season 1. hopefully they do better in season 3.
@@denstination you can argue that season 2 has a different animation style, but not that it is worse, and there are many reasons for this change. the visuals look depressing because they *are* depressing; purposefully designed in almost monochromatic palettes in cold colors to portray the whole vibe of the season.
you *cannot* be telling me that an animation is better than another because one of them doesn't make their characters look like they dumped a gallon of olive oil on their skin or put a breaking bad mexico filter on every scene that is sunny.
not only "sketchy" style animation is not a flaw, but it wasn't even the animators' fault they were given such strict deadlines to finish projects of this size. Now, if you're telling me shibuya arc animations are **okay** you are just straight up wrong and there is no "opinion" that can ever support this
@@nps5607 nobody is reading that.
@@denstination i'm saying that your opinion is wrong
S1 Sukuna: "Yes sir i'll bring her back home at 8"
S2 Sukuna: "Your daughter calls me daddy too"
Daddy Sukuna
Honestly, I don’t like gojo in season 1. He doesn’t look like the manga but in season 2 they changed him and it looks so much better. (Don’t hate, my opinion)
It's alright, many others also say that S2 is more similar to the artstyle in manga
Everybody looks more depressed in the 2nd season
Shibuya arc☠️
I wonder why
シーズン2のほうが柔らかくて好きだな
Season 1 feels like a slow normal time management
Season 2 looks like they rushed it
I know the season 1 artstyle looks much more shiny and realistic, but I really like the season 2 flat and clear artstyle. To me season 2's artstyle also looks more clean and simple, but I can definitely understand people liking the season 1 artstyle's shiny and detailed look.
Choso, nitta, megumi, and ino are the only ones to have the biggest changes tbh
not gonna lie s2 looks slightly better it looks clean overall and heck more details to put into characters instead of unnecessary details on clothing
Season 1 is better
0:47 bruh gege is anime character now 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀☠️☠️☠️
For some reason choso just change into light skinned like really light skinned
S1 feels like it’s going for a slightly more rigid, more consistent style where everything is always “on model.” S2 feels slightly less refined but it allows for more flexibility in movement and expression. S1 feels like it’s trying to look great in stills. S2 is trying to look great in motion. And whichever you prefer is down to preference.
But I like S2 way more.
Agreed! so maybe the main conclusion is
S1: consistecy
S2: better animation
@@Space-Rein no, not better. I think both are trying to accomplish different things. I prefer S2, but there are plenty of people who prefer their anime to be more consistent and readable. I won’t lie, there are scenes in S2 that I felt were impossible to follow because of the rougher animation, and I know some people hate that
La temporada 2 me gusta porque no exagera en brillos no en colores es algo mas agradable a la vista y la animacion es mas ligera
The character design and drawing style changed in both the anime and the manga since the Shibuya incident arc compared to what the first chapters were, where it looked like a generic shonen, noting how Gege's style changed to one in the that he/ she feel more comfortable in what the current arcs are
Cool, the style fits the arc
I like S2 more, the rendering is more grounded and als o some face features of the characters, but i like kokichi in s1 more
Season 1 was in par wath demon slayer art stayle it quite shame mad house does not give to much attention but the story was great and emotional the truth I was going give deep tears in many moments
