Perhaps Jujutsu Kaisen is one of the most important anime right now. There are hundreds of discussions about it. Viewers often argue about the quality of the adaptation, plot twists, and MAPPA scandals only fuel the interest. However, despite all the criticism, the amount of fans is not decreasing, on the contrary — the number of viewers is growing rapidly. But what is so attractive about this story and why has Jujutsu Kaisen become so popular?
Fights are amazing
Jujutsu Kaisen, like all shounen, is full of battles. But unlike other series, where the fights often follow a predictable script, the action scenes in Jujutsu Kaisen are surprisingly new to the genre. First of all, the quality of the animation and the scale of the events are amazing. The surrounding space also participates in the battle. Everything breaks and explodes. It is not a simple fight, where you need to beat your opponent. Here you have to be cunning and use all available opportunities.
Beloved characters
The characters are no less attractive. It's not just about their appearance. Their personalities are also well developed. Of course, there are some unrevealed heroes, but they're also very interesting to watch. Yuji is not a typical shounen protagonist, although his story is about overcoming. Perhaps his connection to Sukuna plays a big role. Yuji is not just a boy who goes through difficulties and eventually wins. He carries a lot of suffering and constantly ponders the purpose of his existence.
Not just villains
The villains in Jujutsu Kaisen aren't just bad guys. Each of them has a story and a goal. They don't do evil things just because they want to. A good example is Jogo, who even managed to elicit sympathy from the audience. Even though the cursed spirits aren't people, many of them have very human desires.
Twisted plot
Plot is one of the strongest points. It is full of unusual twists and interesting decisions. It is very difficult to guess what will happen next. It is even more difficult to understand which characters will survive and who will die. Without giving too much away, there are some unexpected deaths of characters. It seemed that the hero had a lot of potential, but everything happened very fast. The creators are not even afraid to take popular characters like Gojo out of the action to give other heroes a chance to express themselves. Every action in Jujutsu Kaisen has a consequence, and viewers often find themselves witnessing rash decisions that add drama to the story.
Deep world
Last but not least is the world of Jujutsu Kaisen. It's probably very hard to surprise with a well-developed universe these days. It's almost impossible to compete with popular giants like Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) or Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba). But Jujutsu Kaisen can. There is a well-written past, so the present world is not in space. There is an elaborate magic system. Each hero has his own unique abilities. As well as a dark side that includes cursed spirits, ghosts and other creatures. All mechanics are explained and there are no major problems.
It's hard to say if Jujutsu Kaisen will be as popular in a few years, but it has a good chance of becoming a classic.
Any chance of being a classic?
