Jasmine Tea Enjoyer

What should’ve been some of the best action animation of all of Jujutsu Kaisen was turned into garbage due to Japanese TV laws that force live broadcasts to fog and blur action sequences that have bright colors and fast moving frames in order to prevent potential seizures. Some of the stuff in this episode was supposed to be great animation, but it looks horrible not due to MAPPA but too stupid TV laws. The animators themselves have been very vocal about there complaints since the episode aired. It sadly looks terrible, when the original unedited versions probably looks fantastic. Ironically enough, the blurring and desaturated effects gave me more of a headache than anything else. Many others feel the same. Really unfortunate stuff.

That's a bit of an exaggeration. Yeah, the ghosting and dimming sucked but I definitely did not think it made it look horrible. I think a ton of people are overreacting and calling the animation awful due to the ghosting. It sucks that it happened but the animation is still top tier, even with the ghosting and dimming.

Jasmine Tea Enjoyer

@Brakthir The animation during the sequences that aren’t ghosted look top tier… but yeah no, censored animation is censored and therefore looks awful. It hurts my eyes seeing all the deleted frames and fogging.

Next episode is probably my all time favorite fight of this series still.

Night Sterling

I mean I'd rather have this than them stop making animation like this because people across the world are getting seizures.

Complaining that it exists is one thing, but I wonder if these anti-seizure restrictions actually work? It looks silly for sure. Might even be unnecessary; there's always better ways. I'm assuming these restrictions must've come about due to the Porygon stuff from back then.

Jasmine Tea Enjoyer

@Nighy Sterling There are a million other ways to prevent seizures than destroying the hardwork of animators. They could simply put a “Prone to Seizures” warning at the start of the episode on live TV. Very easy thing to do.

Jasmine Tea Enjoyer

@Zero They are not necessary at all. They could simply put a “Prone to Seizures” warning title card at the beginning of the episode, which is what they do in every other country except Japan. You are correct its only a thing because of the Porygon incident.

Night Sterling

Ok but then what about the people who would get seizures? Do they just not get to watch the episode? Genuinely asking because i dont know what people do when there is a warning and they are prone to it

Jasmine Tea Enjoyer

@Night Sterling Yes. Less than 1% of the population gets to just not watch the episode. Absolutely ruining the hard work of under paid and over worked genius animators is not worth catering to an extremely small minority of people. The BluRay dvd for this season won’t have the foggy/blurry effect, so they won’t be able to buy the BluRay, sucks for them.

Jasmine Tea Enjoyer

Lol really goes to show how ignorant most of the people on this patreon are. The animators of this episode themselves have complained a lot about this issue. But yeah ratio the shit out of me... on other much more intelligent patreon communities people actually agree with me because they know about this problem.

Night Sterling

Cool bro I'm genuinely asking here cause I wanna know but sure take it the wrong way I guess lol 😂

Jasmine Tea Enjoyer

@Night Sterling Nah you good its all these other fools liking the top reply as if I am completely in the wrong even though the MAPPA animators themselves agree with me

@Jasmine Tea Enjoyer so where do i fall here, since i thought this episode looked great, even though it IS true that mappa's animators are frustrated about it? i also think it's interesting that you say they "agree with you" when your stance is that this looks terrible and even specifically used the word "garbage" which is pretty intense! somehow i suspect that the people who animated this also have eyes, and are very aware of both the issues and the fact that the final product still looked awesome. you say a lot of things as if speaking confidently means you're correct, but it really doesn't. so, which stance do we think makes the most sense here? the one where we pretend there are no problems (not a fan of that one), the one where Jasmine Tea Enjoyer brutally insults the studio while attempting to white knight for them (not a fan of this one either!), or the one where we appreciate the hard work, appreciate that even censorship can't ruin work that's at this level, hope for less censorship in the future, and come out of it having had a good time? everyone else feel free to make your own decisions, but i definitely know which one i'm picking.

Jasmine Tea Enjoyer

@K. Unknown Nobody is denying the quality of the animation in this episode that wasn't censored by Japanese TV regulations... all of the parts of this release that weren't censored looked "awesome" as you said. I never stated otherwise. The parts of the episode that were censored, fogged, blurred out, etc. did NOT look "awesome", which anyone with working eyes can see. "you say a lot of things as if speaking confidently means you're correct, but it really doesn't." So should I speak without confidence in order to make a persuasive arguement? What a stupid thing to say. "where Jasmine Tea Enjoyer brutally insults the studio" Again, I never did this. I specifically said, "it looks horrible not due to MAPPA but too stupid TV laws". Are you so offended by my comment that you are now putting words in my mouth, making things up, in order to dunk on me for some internet points? As the MAPPA animators themselves have said publicly, yes, some specific scenes in this episode were in fact ruined. You can't concede that there was censorship and that you want less of it and than turn around and say the work can't be ruined by censorship. If the censorship, according to you, can't ruin the work, than why are you wishing for less censorship? Doesn't make any sense. Your point is moot.
