Mixed Reaction from Fandom
When fans saw the season 2 episode schedule for Jujutsu Kaisen, they were most dissatisfied. The fact that the anime was scheduled to have two recap episodes and a break in between was interpreted by viewers as “three weeks of nothing,” since they equated break weeks with the time between episodes.
Since fans were convinced that the recap episodes and hiatus had been planned solely to allow the team to conclude the production of the Shibuya Incident arc episodes, they began protesting about MAPPA’s production schedule. Many viewers reasoned that the anime studio’s problems arose because it attempted to handle too many tasks at once.
Some viewers were relieved that season 2 of Jujutsu Kaisen wasn’t being rushed to air by MAPPA. The Shibuya Incident arc has been eagerly anticipated by many readers for a very long time. As a result, they sought the best means by which to experience the arc. When they learned that the animation studio was delaying the commencement of the arc, they were understanding.
