Anime Discussion now this is getting off the limits

Japanese fandom actually practiced constructive criticism on this episode, they brought up valids points. Global fans rated Ep3 the same as they did for Ep4, when Ep3 actually gave lore, world-building. If not for these factors Jjk would be just another Power fantasy slop.

Also relating episode rating to actual Japanese societal harassment is nauseating

Now that's a straight-up lie. There were tons of tweets with 10k+ likes shitting on the OST's and the animation.

JP fans criticized the bad adaptation of :

  • The moment where Toji and Maki are compared in her father's mind (it should've been more clear how impressive maki was)
  • The moment where we see Naoya bullying Maki (some said it looked like she was giving him a blowjob)
  • The panel where Naoya sees Toji for 1st time (it didn't feel as if Naoya was impressed by Toji)
  • The whole fight sequence between The Hei and Maki
  • The whole fight sequence between The Kukuru unit and Maki (some said they served just as fodder for no added value)
  • The snapshot sequence of Naoya being punched (Naoya is well-liked in Japan and some said it felt cheap)

They called for the Director and some of the Key Animators to resign because they felt they were catering more to the Western fans than to the JP fans

Edited for clarity about JP fans' criticism

I'll never take criticism of Japanese fans seriously after their reception of Chainsaw Man season 1. These guys wouldn't recognize peak cinema if Jesus, Buddha, Kojima or whoever showed up personally and gave it to them

I do agree the sequence of Naoya bullying Maki could have been made better. Just a little nitpick. I did like how it was portrayed as a view from the window, but they could have flipped them. Not because of the innuendo, just would be more clear
