First of all i didn't like tht much jjk before but after seeing this season oh my god this is Amazing loved the character emotional depth and Chaos wht they created.
Maki just single handedly changed the whole series
( Maki >>>>>> (sukuna and gojo are trash 🚮🚮🚮🚯🚯 ) i didn't like those op trash before they were too annoying and dragging the series.
Just now series got better and the direction , storytelling , writing, and finally got the emotional deapth ( which lacked in seasn 1 n 2 ) with great soundtrack.
Fights are balanced well with the plot and characters well not like too flashy and fast phased like first 2 seasons

This is just Amazing and the ending song is just emotional and elevating the emotions to peak.

So I guess Nobara and Nanami's death had no emotional impact on S2. Or Itadori left in the aftermath of Shibuya, after regaining control over his body. Showing us Geto's struggle of his ideology. Junpei also being turned into a curse meant nothing at all in S1.

i meant As a direct emotional depth not indirect it was outshined by Flashy fights it was really good but i couldn't get connect to it before and you know another thing i hate is it's too gory in large scale cuz there's no value for a life in jjk world ( everytime you see these op's kill a human like nothing i really hate it . in s3e4 also they glorified those death's in zinin clan) but tht emotional impact works. it's alright.
but other season's are just meh 🤷‍♀️

Other than Nobara death everything else you said is valid.
Nobara is a very mid character i don't understand why people like her.

Saying that while ignoring how much of the story's stakes, structure, and escalation exist because of Gojo and Sukuna is diabolical. Remove them from the narrative, and let's see how far anything actually progresses without them.

outshined by flashy fights?
bruh what are you yapping about?
Nanami death with that beautiful background score and cutting from him dreaming about being in a beach to the reality where is fighting a curses leading to his death by mahito and his final words to yuji, that wasn't emotional?
Yuji waking up to find out that sukuna destruction in Shibuya where the main opening plays in the bg and we show all the destruction that wasn't emotional?
Bruh I get it you are a demon slayer fan but every emotional scene is not about someone having a shitty childhood where their parents are dead.

I mean calm down the seasons hardly started, visually season 1 and the movie was my favourite. I think season 3 will be my favourite by the end cause a lot of key moments and characters I love will be animated.

Though I did really like the first arc of season 2 that was amazing

L take, too gory so it makes it lack emotional depth? Berserk, Chainsaw Man (with reze arc), Attack on Titan, Re:Zero, Vinland Saga, Psycho-Pass, Puella Shoujo Madoka Magica, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Parasyte: The Maxim, Kingdom, Fate Series, Naurto, Bleach.

I guess Pain doesn't have great character depth since all he did was kill so many shinobi for being OP.

Adam Smasher must have so little character since he just wrecks David and Rebecca in Cyberpunk.

Yhwach being OP as he is in Thousand Year Blood War must speak badly to his character for having the Quincy wreck all of Gotei 13 squads and kills Yamamoto.

Thorfinn must really suck for being an adolescent (in S1) that can out duel adults in a fight to death, in medieval europe.

Eren must suck for being too OP of having the founding titan's power to enact his ideal across the world.

What are we even talking about?!

All jokes aside though, it's good that you got what you like about the show. I mean people take the series differently but in this case I'm not quite understanding on why would you make a conclusion that this is the best season but it barely got any episodes aired to conclude your overall judge about the season.

Second, why did you just noticed about an emotional depth in Jujutsu Kaisen on Maki's episode, there are emotional depth before like Itadori as a burden to all of his friends and teachers moving on from the Shibuya Incident, Nanami having a dream in Malaysia and losing a close friend like Haibara and not putting a curse to his name and Itadori's name as his mentor too on his last words of him going to die, Mahito tells Itadori that they are the same, arguing that Mahito kills humans instinctively just as Itadori saves them, reducing their conflict to a raw struggle for survival rather than a battle of good versus evil.

Not to mention Geto and Gojo’s complex, tragic relationship—before the Riko Amanai incident they shared a clear sense of purpose and equality, protecting others because it felt right, but after it, Gojo’s awakening distanced him emotionally while Geto was left alone to question the meaning of sacrifice, ultimately splitting two people shaped by the same trauma into opposite worldviews." You get the point basically there are more emotional depth than just Maki. So no lack of emotional depth throughout the show before.

The reason the series got better because of all that happened before this season. The build up, the contrast from the beginning, there are emotional stakes now because we got attached to the characters more throughout the show. For the direction it was phenomenal since S2 started, I liked Shota Goshozono as the series director and I'm a big fan of him same as he did for this season.

Gojo and Sukuna are essential characters for the show even though the author himself hated Gojo but he still add him to the story. Gojo being the strongest in the world is a bad thing too because his existence fundamentally shifted the balance of the JJK's world by making him an unmatched, near-instantaneous threat, forcing CURSED SPIRITS to evolve, grow stronger, and become more proactive in a "necessity breeds strength" scenario. Consequently, this escalated the overall power ceiling for all sorcerers.

Sukuna is the king of curses, he has a plot on Megumi since the beginning of S1 around eps 4 I think, and we still don't know why and I still think it's good to have it thinking in the back of your mind. Since S2 Eps 17 he mentioned it again and S3 eps 2 Itadori explained it to Choso and Yuta about Sukuna plotting Megumi.

It's not really dragging, I think they did a good job on giving everyone task perspective on each role in S2 since it's a big city Incident and how Kenjaku was plotting the whole thing and having chaos around the city. For S1 basically knowing all the characters and the season was solid imo, first having Yuji to Jujutsu High, introduced Megumi, Sukuna, Gojo, Nobara, and after Yuji died we get to know Gojo's true skills on eps 7, know about Nanami, Jinpei, Mahito, there is a Tokyo branch where Maki and the others are. Introduced Choso and the brothers, Megumi can actually make a domain expansion. I think it was solid of a season, no drag at all.

So yeah I think you're missing out a lot of things throughout the previous seasons. But no worries, hope that you enjoyed it fully further tho!

Not saying the writing is S-Tier, but saying it’s been lacking emotional depth is wild lol 😂 I actually enjoyed season 1 because they made sure to the character introductions some justice, wouldn’t call that dragging the series, but I definitely understand loving this season more Gojo and sukuna aren’t my favorite characters of the series (megumi/choso), but saying they’re trash sounds like you just wanna go against the grain 😂😭 I swear JJK brings out the spoiling manga readers and the Supreme rage-baiters lol 😂

Lol The hate is so forced. I do believe there’s a group of people in the anime viewing space that just hates the OP characters. They want to relate to the characters so much that they’d only want to watch the “weak” characters that eventually level up. Just my opinion 😂

S3 is definitely a step back. Everything feels rushed and too chaotic to the point where the fights scenes just seem messy and are way to quick. Sometimes you can't even tell whats going on. I think personally there is a directing issue.

Also, the issue with the writing with hie much info is told is an issue just like I thought it would be for this arc. The amount of information that is told instead of shown is just not cut out for anime.

JJK already peaked narratively in what was adapted into s2 & 0, so taking creative liberties and expanding upon what was left hanging in the manga is all mappa can really even improve on anymore considering how comprehensive their efforts have been. Emotional depth has been omitted from the source material this season rather, iirc that was the main complaint from Japanese fans regarding ep4. The bar was set above the clouds and if somehow mappa is to peak the show into those heights again I think it's time to open up discourse concerning the greatest studio.

They have Great back story and Other characters who works under them already made them soo powerful by fighting MC's it's already went interesting and you get connected to their Op powers
not like these 2 they just started very strong without story. it really lacks in story deapth and emotional build up. lots of people couldn't even connect to the atory and dropped it.

That's a taste thing, not a structural one. You may find it more enjoyable without them, but the tension only works because Gojo and Sukuna established what the "worst case" scenario actually looks like. Enjoyment is subjective, but narrative stakes don't disappear just because the strongest characters aren't on screen.

@SoloNecromancer
Still disagree with it. The people that dropped it are a very small minority in comparison to the whole viewer base just on MAL alone. It's not like we don't have lore about Gojo coming from his clan as to how he has his power for infinity. Plus the additional lore of the hidden infinity arc. There is not a lot of lore for Sukuna so I agree with you for Sukuna, there isn't that much backstory as to being OP.

Is it the best writing possible? No, but I'm not arguing that it is. I'm arguing that it's alright, it isn't trying to set a new standard and I'm not looking for that in the show. The same way with Demon Slayer how most Demons in the Twelve Kizuki has to have somber backstories. I know what to expect from Demon Slayer's writing. Plus big shounen like Naurto, Bleach built their villains across hundreds of episodes (until thousand year blood war for bleach) for characterization.
