Jujutsu Kaisen is seen by millions of fans as the best-ever new-gen anime and manga series due to its complicated yet amazing storyline, which has managed to intrigue the viewers. Season two recently ended, and it was animated by popular animation studio Mappa.
Mappa has an impressive work portfolio and has been involved in many renowned series such as Vinland Saga, Attack on Titan, Chainsaw Man, and the list goes on. However, their working conditions are terrible, which has led to popular animator Chansard Vincent declaring that he will never work for Mappa again.
Chansard Vincent has declared that he will never work with Mappa after Jujutsu Kaisen
Jujutsu Kaisen has been one of the most successful anime of the year and has achieved tremendous success in its second season.
Season two of the franchise aired in 2023, and it animated the Hidden Inventory arc as well as the Shibuya arc.
Although at a certain time, it looked like the series wouldn’t be able to conclude due to problems, it managed to finish successfully.
Mappa has been known for its extremely poor working conditions, and this has led one of the most sought-after names in the industry, Chansard Vincent, to declare that he would not work with Mappa again.
Recently, the animator held a stream via Twitch, where he answered several questions, and user Mingo translated the interview and shared it on Twitter.
Why no longer want to work for Mappa (to Vincent)?
Vincent: I don't want to support a company that ideologically doesn't care about working conditions, Go asked me and I like working with him, he also doesn't want to work anymore for Mappa.

Vincent is a very talented animator and has been involved in various projects, and Mappa might be set to lose one of the best animators due to their poor management and terrible work conditions.
