The four episodes that are set to be screened are episodes 41 to 44. That's because those episodes became a huge topic of conversation due to their overwhelming quality and spectacular development.

Moreover, the anime revealed that Episode 41, i.e., Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 episode 17 will feature some additional cuts that weren't in the episode when the anime was airing. The episode is also set to go through some video corrections as well.

Given that Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 episode 17 was the episode that featured the fight between Ryomen Sukuna and Mahoraga, it can be confirmed that the Blu-ray version is set to fix the issues that were there during its broadcast and distribution.

While the episode was widely enjoyed by fans, some had issues with the animation style. Given that they were anime-only fans, they had trouble comprehending what was taking place in the anime.

That's because too much was happening on the screen, which made it impossible for fans to understand how Mahoraga's adaptability or Sukuna's domain worked.

Many fans were disappointed by the animation style change in the Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 episode 17.

While most other episodes tried to maintain the anime's usual style, this was not the case for episode 41. The single fight was animated by several talented animators, all of whom seemingly incorporated their own style into it, which made which made the entire sequence wonky for fans.

While the entire anime episode cannot be fixed, fans can expect MAPPA to make enough video corrections to satisfy fans. Nevertheless, the only way to know that would be to purchase the Blu-ray or DVDs or watch the episode in theaters when it releases on Friday, March 29, 2024.
