A popular JJK account shared, “About the anime: The battle between the Jujutsu High members and Sukuna was heavily influenced by the Jujutsu Kaisen anime.
“When the anime adaptation (visualization) happens, they rework the direction based on the manga, and even as the original author, I sometimes find myself thinking, ‘Whoa, this is awesome!’, ‘You can use this technique in this way too…’ – it’s like I was moved by something that’s been reverse imported.”
Fans find this piece of information intriguing, with onewriting, “Gege being a fanboy of his own work to the point of hyping up, how good it will look when animated is truly cute to see.”
“That’s cool that both mediums influenced one another,” wroteanother.
“Oh, this explains the invisible chainsaws that Sukuna used to hold Yuta’s sword. Gege got it from MAPPA making Sukuna skate with slashes lmao,” athird onechimed in.
