Even as Shigemo apologizes, Nanami shows no mercy and continues his assault. This led to many comments such as “Nanamin, veins bulging and completely furious, was so cool” and “The animation and portrayal of furious Nanamin was beyond expectations.” Additionally, Kenjirō Tsuda’s performance as Nanami was highly praised, with reviews such as “It’s amazing how threatening he sounds with just a change in tone” and “The way he says ‘How dare you’ in that menacing, gravelly voice was excellent.”

The anime “Jujutsu Kaisen” is based on the manga of the same name by Gege Akutami, which has surpassed a cumulative 100 million copies in circulation (including digital editions). The story begins when Yūji Itadori (voiced by Junya Enoki), who comes to share his body with the King of Curses, Ryōmen Sukuna (voiced by Junichi Suwabe), transfers to the Tokyo Jujutsu High, a specialized institution for fighting curses. The anime’s second season, which aired from July to December 2023, covered the popular “Hidden Inventory/Premature Death” and “Shibuya Incident” arcs from the original manga. Production has also been decided for the sequel, the “Culling Game” arc.
