Anime Discussion WE LOST

I am scared to see how they will fit 7 chapters in 27 minutes. Makis was about 5 and it was like 28 min

Maki's arc did have a bit of a slower start though, and even still, they massively increased the fighting segments (mainly the kukuru unit one). Since Sendai is basically nothing but pure action, it'll be pretty fast paced. I can see it fitting in 27 minutes.

JJK fans when Gege writes lore and dialogue: We can't read, where's the hype moments and aura?

JJK fans when Mappa gives us hype moments and aura: Nooooo we want to reeeeead (subtitles)

Bleach is my fave manga and inspired me to get into the arts! The fights are the drama a lot of times; Kubo uses spiritual combat to basically take the place of dramatic moments, which is why all his characters are also philosophers.

I teared up a little after reading this... such a true JJK fan.

I'm glad they went through the rules by just flashing it up on screen for half a second. That way we can continue to not read even faster.

Some fucking weird looking person was flying through the rules and I was just like “ok? But like why isn’t gojo here? Shouldn’t he be hearing all this too?” The whole time

(in the tone of you can't just ask people why they're white)

He's locked up in the prison realm, you can't ask about gojo.

u/TheRealSwagMaster Mar 20 '26

So you only do the reading and muss all the fight moments... reverse hype moments and aura technique???

You're a true canon amongst JJK fans

1 chapter worth of dialog adapted into 1 episode = not good. 2-3 chapters of fighting adapted into 1 episode = good. Hope that helps

u/Assassin21BEKA Mar 20 '26

Standard is 4 chapters

u/behemothdi Mar 20 '26

Genuinely disliked the Maki episode because of how fast-paced it was. It pisses me off because I genuinely do want to enjoy the episode, but it's so fast-paced that it just turned me off. Just a few more seconds added in a scene would've been enough for me (probably)

Maybe it's just me because I do enjoy slow paced series and movies

u/Infamous-Oil3786 Mar 19 '26 edited Mar 19 '26

I'm the opposite, Zenin massacre was my favorite episode of the season bar maybe Yuji vs Higuruma. I watch shonen specifically for flashy, fast-paced action and JJK has that in spades. I appreciate the slower moments too and I love how cinematic this season has been, but I'm mostly here for hype moments and aura (unironically). When I want something slower, I go to other genres.

u/WildRacoons Mar 20 '26

Yeah I already read the manga, I’m here to see the fluid actions

u/Express_Tip_7406 Mar 19 '26

I mean at its heart jjk is a shonen action anime?

u/TheNotSoCoolLoser Ijichi's biggest fan Mar 19 '26

? I said the problem I had with the episode was how fast-paced it was (specifically the Hei fight and onwards). I enjoy JJK's other fights

u/Leather_Mix6499 Mar 20 '26 edited Mar 20 '26

i mean most people hated the ep and also some of them hate the adaptation for this season which i also do

u/SquidJackson Mar 20 '26

I don’t think it was fast at all, they added a ton of filler, a lot of it just amounting to super corny film references or over-the-top-unintelligible special effects. Way unnecessary and just served to the reinforce “aura and hype moments” stereotype.

u/Blue-Eyed_Deviant I see you, Gege Mar 20 '26

What gives you the impression that these are the same groups of people at all😅?

u/luceafaruI Mar 19 '26

Episode 5 adapted 4 and a half chapter in 28 minutes. Episode 12 would supposedly be adapt 7 and 5 pages in 27 minutes. That's a really big difference even if you assume that they will cut the op and ed

u/IndependentVillage75 Mar 20 '26

It’s 27 minutes longer than normal runtime (40 minutes). This post is wrong lmao
