Jujutsu Kaisen: Thunderclap - Part 2 (2023)
Best Action Episode in Anime History
This is not a usual episode, but one that will go down in a history book for generations to look back on and studied.
I'm speechless, considering the surrounding circumstances of the production, it can not stop the cheer will of the full force THE ENTIRE TOP ANIMATORS IN THE INDUSTRY COMBINED.
A quick history of animators: there are 3 teams of freelance animators in Japan that are closely linked together, which they are the main sources every insane animation we've seen in recent years.
The first team of "Seshimo Team": are those freelancers that currently closely work at Studio MAPPA, including the light of TNK who participate in this EP.
The second (not)team are the lights of Vincent Chansard, the man that carried modern One Piece animation, and Weilin Zhang, who's many named "the best animator of all time", they also participate in this EP
The last team is "Team Go", lead by Hakuyu Go, considered as the best animators team, Go himself, Miso, and Arai, the three leader of the team, ALSO PARTICIPATE IN THIS EP.
I don't want to review the visual much, BUT GET IT, "you will not experience anything like this ever again in the foreseeable future, as this 3 teams NEVER EVER come together ever, until today.
This is the best animated, best action episode in anime history, period.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Thunderclap (2023)
JUJUTSU KAISEN TEAM'S MAGNUM OPUS
This episode was storyboarded and directed by Miso, one of the member of the animators team know as Team Go, lead by Hakuyu Go, considered to be the best team of animators in the modern time, and it certainly shows.
This is by a mile the best looking episode of Jujutsu Kaisen. The best thing about this episode is the art-style change combine with the action storyboard that is second to none.
They manage to elevated Megumi vs Togi fight by adding almost 10 minutes of original fight content, ending in a beautiful scene that elevated the source material so much.
As for Sukuna vs Jogo, this is Jujutsu Kaisen's magnus opus. We know the animation will be insane, we all expect that. But, the direction, oh man, this is probably second only to the best directed action episode of anime, Mon Psycho S2EP11, also by Miso.
We truly grateful to have this godlike team on this project, thanks to series director, Gosso's connection.
Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker (2021)
Best story in video games
Best story in video games period. Tied everything up perfectly with the most relatable story theme of the struggle of finding the meaning of life. With the most surprising villian tied up.
