| liked the episode but that sequence from 1:50 to 2:40 looked atrocious |
| This story does not deserve this animation. So many people here giving inflated scores because it's flashy, but the story is seriously lacking, the pacing is everywhere, and it simply does not have the charm it did seasons ago, when even that was best classified as "not great, but not bad". Overhyped nonsense. Inane garbage like this gets a million seasons while great anime are cut short with no explanation. I do like the weird costume guy, and that's literally all I like this season. Someday my grandchildren will ask me, "grandpa, why is art dead?", and I will respond because the industry killed it. |

| Uhm... This episode successfully captures Megumi’s nickname—Mr. Potential Man. Objectively speaking, the Megumi vs. Reggie fight was pretty disappointing. Let’s talk about K1RO’s cut. Objectively speaking, what exactly did we see in that scene? It was way too rough; even in terms of composition, I really hated it—it was way too dark. Plus, Tengen-sama REALLY loves to yapp on every fight scene, which makes it hard to stay focused. At least Julian Bentley saved part of this fight. Even though it was very short, I’d say this scene healed some of the wounds inflicted by this episode. Reggie’s death scene was handled very well. The OST was the strongest part of this episode. Remi’s scene is one of my favorites in this episode. And the OST is always the best part of this episode. I felt so sad seeing Megumi so upset in this episode. After Reggie, he had to deal with Remi, and of course, his older sister managed to talk him out of it. YUTAAAAAAA, JANE JULIET, and UROO LOOK AMAZINGGG. Although I’m disappointed with the runtime being only 27+ minutes, and they’re going to adapt the full 7 chapters of this arc? Hopefully it won’t feel rushed like the Zenin clan episode.  |

| Very good fight, Although I still dont like the part where the narrator info dumps us in the middle of the fight, Had to watch that part twice to see the action. The next episode though, It will make or break this season for me. Yuta's my favourite character and I hope they dont mess up his fight, He's gonna be all over reels next week, Maximum aura next week! |
 |
| Damn rip Reggie. I like how creative Reggie's technique could be. the possibilities are endless! it's just so fun to watch! anddd can't wait for Yuta Kaisen next week let's gooo!! |
  |
| I don't mean to nitpick on what is overall a really good episode that a lot of passion was put into, but where the literal fuck is Megumi's burn scar? They put so much emphasis on it last episode. It didn't need to be that bad and wasn't that bad in the manga. But they went and gave it to him anyway. And now it's gone? I think where they're going here is that Megumi unlocking 120% of his potential buffed his healing but that changes the way domains work then -- it was never established that domains auto refresh previous damage. Episode is otherwise perfect imo. |
 |
| this episode somehow felt longer than the 40min sbr episode. has to do with megumi. |
 |
| Reggie fight went on a bit longer than I thought it would but it just goes to show how strong Reggie was, Fushiguro had to do damn near everything to beat this guy, even after trying to crush him with an elephant and then suffocate him in the shadow, bro just comes back out on top of a car lol, then he proceeds to drop a house on Fushiguro, man I’m gonna miss Reggie so much because his fight is easily one of the most fun in the entire series. And once the two of them could no longer use cursed techniques, it came down to an old fashioned brawl, well until Fushiguro used that dog anyway, I kinda wish it just played out with the raw hand to hand action but Fushiguro winning with his planning does make sense. And so that’s a big RIP to Reggie, he appeared for the first time in this season and made one of the best impressions. And he was a past sorcerer too? I thought he was a modern one because of the receipts, well now his strength makes a bit more sense. And before leaving us, Reggie forked over his points to make things interesting. For a guy like Reggie who made things interesting himself, I can appreciate that lol. Buuuut then Fushiguro collapsed after sparing Remi, and then the Angel they were looking for appeared, that’s cool but it looks like next week the focus is shifting to Yuta for the Part 1 finale, about time he got some action again since I thought he was supposed to be more prominent this season, better late than never. Also, Takaba’s technique can even go against Gojo’s? That is insane lol, can’t believe a joke character like him is capable of that, but apparently he doesn’t understand his technique himself, so I guess that’s how it balances out, it reminds me of Okuyasu from Jojo who’s a similar case in having a super strong ability, but his dumbassery nerfs him lol. |
| I really like how they handled Reggie's death, the piano playing in the background while his blood spills into the pool was just really well done, and Reggie foreshadowing Megumi's future with his last words was a nice touch (if you know you know). Also, are they actually going to manage to cover the entirety of Sendai colony in just one episode next week? Cause it would really kill the hype of that colony if they just ended it on a cliffhanger and made everyone wait like a year+ just to see the continuation of it. |
| Kind of a weird episode. On one hand I did kinda enjoy the battle, and yet I didn't. Cool visuals and action, but it's always somewhat frustrating watching this show (something that I don't typically feel in other battle-type anime) when these stupid powers and their rules get complicated and that narrator doesn't shut up. Hard to follow the action while trying to make sense of what is happening strategy-wise because I'm constantly looking down at the subtitles. Did kind of like the part where Megumi started getting suspicious of Tengen... However, I haven't read the manga so not sure if that is teasing anything. Disappointed with the Takaba fight. I like gag characters but the end of this episode made it seem like he was just really stupid, or crazy? Like I guess the same could be said for his appearance last episode, but that could have been him just fucking with people. At the end of this episode he just seems like a unhinged instead of jokester. That makes him a lot less interesting. |

Reply to Nycro
@Futter Imagine thinking his ability is the cause of bad rating.
| @Nycro It's definitely what I disliked about the episode even if the ratings are bots. Okay, so the guy summons stuff from receipts and other contracts. Cool cool, and it's a cute idea to then make an outfit out of the receipts. But how does he pick them out from the hundreds? Just does. Alright, senses it or something, so he buys a lot of weapons and has an armory on hand? Nah, he makes the objects fly around and do whatever he wants. Well that seems like a totally unrelated power that really didn't need the whole receipts thing. So did he clear out a hardware store or something else cheap and uses that for projectiles? Partially, but he's also got receipts for a few cars and a whole house. You know, as you do... It's just... why do we have all this narrator explanation time when the powers get to do whatever the hell anyway? |

i simply just don't like keiichiro watanabe's sequences i know about his works in other mappa shows and in jjk but it really is just too crude for me to appreciate. no rhyme or reason in his work just mindless abstraction. |
| Megumi's fight was incredible. I wonder how they'll fit Sendai into one episode, can't wait for next week. |
| Noo..not the pool! |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Loved seeing how they animated this fight since I wasn't really sure how it was going to look once it was animated. The intro of those new characters and Yuta gets me hyped for the next ep, apparently longer duration as well. |

Thatbreadguy275 said: Marinate1016 said: They’ll never make me hate Megumi. That fight was dope, Riley’s cut in particular was amazing. The weird misogynistic bit at the end lost me tho. All men are wolves, but the wolves handle all the complex things for me because I’m too stupid to think for myself, like what lol. Anyway, MY GOAT YUTA BACK NEXT WEEK FINALLY. He and Maki the only reason I even watch this bullshit so I’m excited for that. I think that it was maybe an example of the type of people who don’t want to fight against misogyny, even if they’re suffering from it, maybe? I’m not sure entirely, but it seemed like an example of some people, especially women, who don’t want to fight against misogyny, since they aren’t facing any struggles from it that they’re aware of, or they’re too scared to fight back, if that makes sense. That’s exactly what it is, but that is misogyny because you’re participating in it. It’s internalised misogyny |

| Guess nobody is really sad about that blonde dude dying, we barely got to know him. Buddha dude got treated even worse and killed off after 5 seconds of screentime. |
| I didn't like the fight soundtrack; I thought it was too bland, and the amoeba-like animation wasn't very satisfying either. Otherwise, it was alright. |
| don't like the comedy character |
| Nice episode. I liked it. Really well animated. I loved that fist fight, it was crazy. |
| Yuta vs Sendai HYPE |
