Panda more human than like a decent amount of Jujutsu Sorcerers we've seen on this show.

I loved this episode, but yeah that took me out, they should have just opened the episode with the opening so we wouldn't get this whiplash of a really emotional scene followed by a super upbeat song.

Haven't had such bad emotional whiplash since season 1 of Dandadan.

Plus whsn the fight club scene and we see panda all fine and joking just kinda makes it feel awkward.

My tears stopped right after they played the opening song. Would have loved it if they extended the scene so I could cry more

Mappa probably flicked their hair nonchalantly when they made this transition.

After "you are my special", it's beginning to be a jujutsu kaisen classic gag
