Jujutsu Kaisen 3x08 Reaction

Rin Amai had that moment where he told himself to warn Itadori not because it was a trap but because his whole life he's been spectating people getting hurt around him, not stopping Yuji from going was for him the same as enabling the bullies to torment others, he blames himself for not saying what is right, he also wishes to apologize and thank Yuji whom he admires a lot

I hope you include Code Geass, RWBY, The Legend Of Vox Machina, World Trigger, My Hero Academia, Danmachi and ReZero in the anime poll because they’re sooo good

I think they need a nice wholesome show after something like JJK. Something like Made in Abyss for some light hearted fun

the episodes from now on will have a lot of exposition during action scenes. Please don't worry about missing anything in episode 9 or 11.

Presentation wise I think this is the best episode of JJk <3

this and next episode are my favourites in the season, i truly cannot wait for the next reaction!!

this could be you if you considered the best romance, drama, found family, character driven, supernatural show out there for the next long anime: https://imgur.com/WmMwI2O (credits to Defensive Onion on discord)

so sad that fruits basket is probably not gonna make it to the poll ): please consider it and watch it without a poll :)

Steins gate mentioned in the intro, the copium in me is swelling. Steins gate is so short and sweet

fucking masterpiece, this episode. my favorite non action ep of this season for sure!!! and higuruma is such an interesting character and everything that led up to him participating in the culling games!!! the storyboards and key animation and DIRECTING were all done by one person, if i remember correctly. correction: storyboards and directing was done by same guy, but ALL the key animation was done by one person which is very impressive haha

you can call hi "higgy" if higuruma is too much and "kenny" instead of kenjaku

I think you are still way too optimistic about Japan’s criminal justice system, and even this episode is still pretty restrained in its criticism of it. For example, Lola talked about the idea that “prosecutors only take someone to court after they’ve gathered enough evidence and are convinced that person is guilty, which is why Japan has a 99% conviction rate.” But that’s not the case. The system is perfectly capable of producing wrongful convictions with zero physical evidence and zero eyewitness testimony. Just Google "the Gotemba case" and you’ll see what I mean.

Btw I’m pretty sure it’s not the jjk higher ups that kenjaku is talking to. We see the higher ups in that orange light the end of season 2 when yuta speaks to them. Also the higher ups have sentenced geto/kenjaku to death.

Btw, as soon as I know, there is no information about a continuation except for the cover. So girls, I wouldn't have high hopes for January. I'd assume it'll be a while until we get a new season. Probably half a year after January would be the most optimistic case. 🥺

Please pick Takopi next, 6 episodes it’ll take 3 weeks 🙏

LET'S GO

Just so you know---thats Chinese they're speaking at the end, that's why there are subtitles. So can't be the Japanese jujutsu higher ups

!!!

JJK season 4 is 2027 sometime, invincible is for sure 1st quarter of 2027 I am excited for your react to both... such great character driven stories.

This episode actually highlights some real issues within Japan’s legal system. The claim that around 99% of prosecuted cases result in guilty verdicts is true. There is a strong level of public trust in the legal system, which can create pressure for authorities to solve cases and identify someone responsible. As a result, once a suspect has been detained and prosecuted, there can be a strong presumption that they are guilty. This pressure to maintain public confidence and avoid leaving crimes unresolved can make it especially difficult for defendants to prove their innocence, even when there is significant evidence supporting their case.

Grand Blue dreaming next?

Call him Slippin Jimmy please I think everyone would love that

Higuruma is one of Geges best characters no spoilers, you guys are in for a treat

I know episode 4 is a lot of people’s favorite but this and the next episode are imo the height of this season

yay lola team kaguya sama for the next poll❤️

Japans 99% conviction rate is tricky phrasing. It makes it sound like Japan is hard on crime but in reality many crimes go unpunished. The conviction rate is only about cases that go to court. Only open and shut cases or high profile cases go to court. While the more difficult to prosecute cases like rapes are ignored.

Be careful about the short anime slot. We have: - Jujutsu Kaisen Season 4 (Jan 2027 - Mar 2027 or Apr 2027 - Jun 2027) - Apothecary Diaries Season 3 Part 2 (Apr 2027 - Jun 2027) - Frieren Season 3 (Oct 2027 - Dez 2027) - Haikyuu OVA + Movie (2027) - Bocchi Season 2 (2027) - Chainsaw Man Season 2 Part 1 (2027) Maybe next year you have to use the Long anime slot for short anime.

I find it really interesting how Gege sometimes brings critique of real society through Nanami's, Nobara's and Higuruma's past; the jjk society as a whole and how it lets character's die in Shibuya, but also normal missions, and takes away youth of the kids like pretty much every character from jujutsu high but particularly Satorou and Suguru, but with those three he seems to want to be really clear about what it is he critiques. Furthermore, one has to love the trio of Nanami, Suguru and Higuruma whom get overworked in systems that don't care for them, but they remain for a sense of justice. It feels like Gege wants to say he believes doing good in an inherently bad system doesn't work, the systems need to be reformed. I'm no expert on Japanese law but I've heard that part of why the conviction rate is as high as it is, is due to detainment being very harsh, I've seen and heard of some detainment bordering on human rights violations. I'm sure everyone felt the lack of women with bobs in this season but Thankfully Gege gave us Higuruma's assistant. On a different note, is there a world where Skip and Loafer or Hibike Euphonium get chosen? or just any kyoani show? or kind of any classic? <3

Saul Goodman would defeat Sukuna.

lol that reaction to Domain Expansion was priceless

12:20 you have seen that image one of my fav memes

Lola's sister is the criminal element 😼

Those aren't the jujutsu higher ups speaking to Kenjaku

I don't like Steins;Gate (I think it could be better when you cut the story down to 12 episodes), but I would vote for it in a poll just so it's finally over :D

I knew they would love this part.

Give Takopi 3 weeks after JJK before you start the next Long anime :(

I didn't even finish Stein's Gate but I'll vote for it at this point

Just saying that if Steins;Gate (without Zero) wins the next poll, it'll be finished by mid-December, and if Kaguya-sama: Love is War wins, it'll be finished by early February. Apothecary Diaries is a bit more complicated because it will have a new season airing this October, and if it wins, we'd be going straight through until July 2027. Even so, all three options are excellent. Personally, I'd love Kaguya-sama because it's my favorite oat, and Steins;Gate because it's been in the polls for four years now

I saw that you were considering *Kaguya-sama: Love Is War* for the next poll, and I love that show—it's so funny.

„I would say 6? 7?“ - Lola 2026

Stein gates

As a public defender, this is by far the most accurate depiction of public defense life I've ever seen. Gege 100% has a close friend that is/was a PD, because this is freakily nuanced and accurate in terms of all of the issues touched upon in this episode.

Episode 3x09 has an after credits scene

Yes, a hot guy in a suit who becomes even hotter when you get to know his morals and realize he hates the awful systems society supports🚬 Reminds me of someone…😔

OMG PLEASE!! Had no idea Steins Gate was on their radar!!

Higuruma is so compelling from the moment we see his backstory. My favourite character introduced in this season. I love when Gege clearly feels a certain way about an aspect of Japanese society or culture, and critiques it via his character work and his writing. We’ve seen it a number of times now: Junpei and bullying, Nobaras home town, Nanami and his corporate job, Higuruma and the legal system, the ‘higher-ups’, the Zen’in Clan and misogyny. And on and on it goes.

This episode was key animated by just one animator Kouki Fujimoto

HE'S HERE

Fun Fact: The 19 y.o driving over a person that the women mention in their conversation about Higuruma's past is the same guy that Yuji and Megumi find in the detention centre back in episode 4 of season 1. You know, the one whose mother asks them to save, but he's already dead, and Megumi and Yuji have their first big argument about saving someone's life. Love this so much

Our goat Higuruma ripping a domain 12 days after learning what cursed energy is

Guys, you can make LM watch anything you want, just give me Apothecary Diaries reactions :D

It would be funny if you guys rewatched an episode from season 1 before everything went traumatic

These 2 episodes are my favorite in the series

Higuruma was my favorite of the season for sure, perfect character for yuji to meet at this point

WE NEED TO ALL UNITE FOR APOTHECARY DIARIES🗣 the girls deserve some romance

rest in peace in prison Jimmy McGill, your replacement has been born.

third time hearing the girls say six seven...

Another one of the top episodes of the season. A really well written character

Gege Akutami taketh but he also giveth

Higuruma introduction🐐

Yaaay, next ep is gonna be great, stick to the end girls

MY GOAT

LETS GO
