The criticism surrounding Jujutsu Kaisen seemed to die down after the 21st episode.
Episode 22 featured some very controversial scenes.
It turned out to be rather crumpled and transitional.
After the 21st episode was released, the criticism surrounding Jujutsu Kaisen seemed to die down a bit. Many were waiting for the end of the impressive fight between Yuji and Todo against Mahito, and they were not disappointed. The episode was good and the closing scene was a pleasant surprise.
But recently the new episode came out, and everything seems to be back to where it was before. Episode 22 was not only a transition episode, but it also showed some very controversial scenes.
Isn't that too dirty?
Jujutsu Kaisen was never too cheerful and pure. It was always full of violence and brutality. Take, for example, the massacre of ordinary people in Shibuya. It can hardly be called normal. The entire protagonist's journey is filled with suffering. Yuji experiences death after death, and we can feel how bad it is for him emotionally. In general, Jujutsu Kaisen had enough dark scenes.
However, Episode 22 surprised us, not with the brutality, but with the questionable scenes. Firstly, the scene where Mei Mei lies in the same bed with her younger brother was criticized. These characters are already not very popular among Jujutsu Kaisen viewers, but after this episode it got even worse.
To make matters worse, Mei Mei escaped from the battlefield to Malaysia and did not help her comrades. Her fate is compared to Nanami's (probably because of his dream to live in that region). Although he fought to the end and died in Shibuya.
The final scene where Yuki saved Yuji was no less effective. It would have been fine if the creators hadn't put so much emphasis on her butt, which was clearly out of place.
Another plot weaknesses
While there are those who enjoyed the ending of Mahito's character, most are disappointed with the abrupt end to his story. He was one of the strongest cursed spirits with not only outstanding abilities, but also great potential. Fans feel he could have had a lot to show if he hadn't been removed from the story.
On the other hand, not everyone is happy with Kenjaku's appearance. He is still an undiscovered character, even though he was already introduced in the first season. He can hardly compete with Mahito in terms of fan love.
The episode turned out to be rather crumpled and transitional. It didn't have any big or epic events. The impression was blurred by the fact that there were many characters in the fight against Kenjaku. This, by the way, is related to another complaint — the Kyoto School sorcerers were useless. All of them except Todo had no chance to prove themselves, and nothing changed in the last episode. So why was it necessary to implement them now?
