Ah, about today's episode⦠I liked? I saw so many people talking about the substandard quality, especially since we just saw one of the best episodes (wow, the Choso vs. Yuji fight was fantastic!) and that's okay, I guess. Everyone can have their opinions. Particularly, I liked how this episode was handled, from Mei Mei's fight to Dagon's dominance. Could be better? I think so. To be honest, I don't know much about animation and I'm very oblivious (I only noticed that there were scenes with ghosting when they pointed it out in the grasshopper episode, until then I hadn't even noticed it T-T), so I'm not speaking as an artist or master on the subject. . I also joined the JJK fandom not long ago and the anime community even less time ago, so I'm not that attached to the manga adaptation (seriously, I saw people arguing over camera angles and I was so confused, until I remembered the scenes from my book that were never adapted in the film). But it's not the episode itself that I came to talk about. It's just⦠I saw so many people criticizing the animation, making cruel jokes about the scenes, and saying terrible things to the animators. This makes me a little sad. This gets worse when I see the animators themselves, people who worked their hardest to do the best they could with an inhumane deadline, apologizing. Seriously, there was one of them who said "sorry for ruining such an incredible work". This made me so sad, especially because this episode was made at the last minute. One of the animators had to work on this scene below in two days. TWO DAYS!!!! While working on another project!!!! Seriously, what the fuck???? And the worst thing is that the episode wasn't bad! The scenes in Dagon's domain were my favorites. I liked how Naobito's ability was adapted and the action scenes were fun to watch. Maki was doing very well and Nanamin even more so. Megumi was also amazing. In the end, the only opinion that matters is mine. If I liked it, I'm going to shout about it whether or not everyone is against me. What I'm trying to say is that, in the end, most people are going with the flow when commenting on the episode. It's a herd effect. One person starts saying something and then another person agrees, and then another and another until a large number have the same thought. It's like theories. That's okay, after all, human beings are social animals. Anyway, just to say that it's okay to like something that the majority didn't like (and vice versa). It's okay to follow the "herd" or have your personal opinion. And most importantly, be kind to the people working on the anime, even if it isn't meeting your expectations. There's no reason to hate someone who's just doing their job, let alone harass them and make them feel like crap. These people have dreams, desires and families to support. If you want to blame anyone, blame Mappa for giving a ridiculous deadline (seriously, it still shocks me that the previous episode was ready two days before it aired!). Anyway, I'm only posting this because I know that my posts have gotten a little further than I expected (I love you all for that, it's very exciting to see my notification box full) and I also know that most people have no idea what that's happening behind the scenes. So yes, be kind and discuss amicably with people on the internet.
#Just daydreaming#don't mind me#I don't even know what I'm doing to be honest#I hope the animators are okay#this whole situation reminds me of Zom 100#I just hope it doesn't take a zombie apocalypse in Japan for these people to rest#jujutsu kaisen#jjk#jjk spoilers#nanami kento#megumi fushiguro#maki zenin#naobito zenin#ui ui#dagon#mei mei#Reading that many of the animators are feeling like rubbish and sad because they couldn't do their best is so sad#it makes me think about how excited these people probably were to work on JJK#and then were abused with these inhumane deadlines#and the work that was supposed to be fun and a cool experience#it ended up turning into hours without sleep and swearing on the internet#I would have gone crazy
