There are so many issues post Shibuya incident. I’m just waiting for it to finish to really breakdown what went wrong. Idk how ppl still excuse so much of what’s gone off the rails. Once again, I know this will all look amazing when animated, but the heart behind the story died a long time ago. Gege had two choices after Shibuya. 2 paths he could’ve gone down with the manga, and he chose the worst possible option. The fact that his plan was to make the culling games a tourney arc, shows we his early success was more luck than skill.his flaws as a writer have become more pronounced as the story has gone on.
tsumiki has been dead since inception, there was a way to play up the horror and evilness of her fate being sealed since kenjaku marked her. Instead we get told she wakes up and a short exchange in a flashback where yorozu is impersonating her. then immediately when she shows up in the story it's an immediate reveal to be a reincarted sorcerer who's backstory/personality is the definition of anime trope meh
he left it ambiguous as to whether nobara died and never tied it up. how do you confirm her death in a random interview?
interpersonal relationships are executed horribly for the most part and it seems like it very rarely occurs to him to actually show relationships instead of telling how close people were post death
how do you make the last big fight of the series this much of a drag with the excessive sukuna dikk riding? this is the third last ditch effort setup that sukuna will survive so we have at least one more to go![]()
This story could have been legitimately interesting AF with the breakdown of the world post Shibuya but JJK has some of the worst worldbuilding I've ever seen.There are so many issues post Shibuya incident.

JJK was RIPE for some serious world building and even a past arc for the Heian era. Gege just isn't interested in thatThis story could have been legitimately interesting AF with the breakdown of the world post Shibuya but JJK has some of the worst worldbuilding I've ever seen.
Almost all of it has been off screen taking place during Kenjaku's smug rambling.
I don't think JJK's success is luck though. At the end of the day the draw here is a cool power system and very entertaining fight choreography. It just seems like Gege had very little in the way of a story mapped out when making this. shyt just happens
I always considered that for JJK the themes he presents throughout are its strongest point. As well as each of the character's motivations and what drives them forward.This story could have been legitimately interesting AF with the breakdown of the world post Shibuya but JJK has some of the worst worldbuilding I've ever seen.

A lot of whats good is stolen straight from HXH and Bleach. He took nen and restriction and covenant straight from HxH. tried to do a generic tourney and fukked it up.This story could have been legitimately interesting AF with the breakdown of the world post Shibuya but JJK has some of the worst worldbuilding I've ever seen.

Jujutsu Kaisen: What Is Black Flash?
"Katayama, my editor at the time told me he wanted a special move [for Yuji Itadori] but I really didn't feel like anything fit," Akutami began (as translated by @soukatsu_ on X). "oI think Divergent Fist and then Black Flash were born as moves that not many others do. The image I had in my mind was the Flash from the game Onimusha. It's a counterattack move you often see in Real Time Attacks. I also liked the fact that it's not a unique skill and that it can be used to increase voltage after just one use."
In terms of the way it's used in the series and the fact that it's all based on luck, that's something Akutami notes helps to build tension due to the fact that both heroes and foes can use it by chance, "It's got a probability element to it, but can be used multiple times successively, which can lead to a turning of the tide in a fight, and by adding in how enemies can also use Black Flash, it generates higher tension."
