Jujutsu Kaisen fans are aware that the team behind the anime is under a lot of pressure these days due to tight schedules. Furthermore, the crisis became more evident when Hokuto Sadamoto apologized for the quality of episode 14. However, Akutami says in his message that he loved the work of the animators and hopes that they will be properly reimbursed.
“Thank you, episode fourteen of season two!! When the animation (in this case, the sketching, timing, and drawings themselves) is ridiculously good, I actually laugh. I hope the people who worked so hard for this whole experience and this anime are getting paid more and more… that’s all I have to say!!”
Synopsis:
Ever since Yuji Itadori, a high school student, became involved with the secret society of sorcerers called Jujutsu Kaisen, he has been training to face curses, evil beings that haunt the world of the living. Therefore, to protect his friends and innocent people, Yuji decides to join the jujutsu sorcerers as a student in training under the guardianship of Satoru Gojo, the strongest sorcerer of all.
The first season of the anime premiered in October 2020 and had 24 episodes animated by studio MAPPA. Later, the studio also took care of the animation for the film Jujutsu Kaisen 0, which takes place a few years before the main series and tells the story of young Yuta Okkotsu.
