A moment of silence for the underpayed mappa employee who missed their kids birthday animating Gojos hand

[swayy]

This scene had more budget than the entirety of seven deadly sins

[Cranefeathers]

In the manga, this bit was just a blank panel with a bunch of Gojo speech bubbles.
I'm absolutely loving Mappa's creativity with this season

Some people complain about the inconsistent artistic direction, but personally, i think it actually makes it better.

Just let artists freely do their thing.

[Rry]

Mappas week of animation
99%: animating gojos hand
1%: the rest of the episode

[nb.]

The fact that he is doing that by manipulating space around pencil is damn impressive
To clear something out, telekinetically manipulating things is easy but manipulating something with space around it, by distorting the space around it is tough as hell . Gojo would just use his spatial manipulation to attract and pull but rotating a thing that small with less mass is tough . Just imagine how tough it is to control something that is in a medium .

[nandaindahpertiwi]

The way he stretch his finger a bit when he changed Aka to Ao. And the small detail that actually he teleported his pencil at the end and brought it back, GOD I LOVE IT SO MUUCH. I bet MAPPA animators need rest in these 3 weeks ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ

[MyNamesMegatron]

that is some smooth hand animation right there

[drowsyvt]

The people over at MAPPA must have had a blast animating this.

Extremely overdue edit: Ok yeah holy shit I am so sorry this did age like a moldy fruit.

[knotknowing]

Bro is both talented slick smooth and freaking handsome😂

[ChimeraLotietheBunny]

this truly is a masterpiece how smooth the hand movements are

[alexzdevil]

Man, I can't imagine how much they spent just to animate this scene😮🥶🥶🥶🗿🗿🗿🗿

[SebastianPargaPaints]

The fact that I can’t tell if this is 3d or not is very impressive. Either the 3d is getting so good it’s hard to tell or the animation is getting so good it looks 3d

[CarlJohnson]

Overused joke but gojo spinning the pencil has more budget than seven deadly sins s3

[DanielDaAbadSukarno]

I have so much nostalgic feeling, I'm doing that shit back in the high school!

[Dingusdoofus]

The animators weren’t allowed to see their families until this scene was finished.

[Cmon-You-Donut]

I'm glad I can do pen spinning like gojo (except the teleport)

It's fun to be a pen spinner

[DragonJustus]

Who else is watching it over and over again, because its to satisfying

[aminashehu]

I just love this pen spin thingy, every time I see someone doing it I can't help but to watch😍

[iwanvongola]

Finally, he's been working on it for the whole year 🙂

[emma_nutella]

They didn’t have to go that hard for that scene but they did
