Jujutsu Kaisen season 3: Everything we know so far

Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 is expected to pick up right after the events of season 2

Season 2 of the anime series Jujutsu Kaisen ended its 23-episode run on December 28, 2023. So is the beloved show coming back for a third season? Read on to discover the program’s fate and what fans can expect from the show in the future.

Will there be a season 3 of the Jujutsu Kaisen anime series?

Yes, there will be a season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen. The season renewal was officially announced by MAPPA, the animation studio that produces the series, at the credits sequence of the season 2 finale.

Will season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen pick up right after the events of season 2?

Season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen will plunge us headfirst into the Culling Game Arc, a high-stakes tournament where sorcerers battle for their survival and the fate of the jujutsu world hangs in the balance. Below are some of the things fans can expect from the upcoming season:

The Aftermath of Shibuya: Season 2 concluded with the devastating Shibuya Incident, leaving casualties and major power shifts in its wake. Season 3 will pick up the pieces, exploring the fallout and setting the stage for the Culling Game itself.

Culling Game: This brutal competition pits sorcerers against each other in designated colonies across Japan. Victory grants points, leading to rank upgrades and even resurrection capabilities. But defeat comes at a steep price: death or removal from the game entirely.

Focus on Yuta Okkotsu: Jujutsu Kaisen 0 introduced us to Yuta, a powerful sorcerer with his own cursed baggage. In season 3, he takes center stage, becoming a key player in the Culling Game and a formidable ally to Yuji and Megumi.

High-Stakes Battles: Fans should brace themselves for intense, strategic combat as the sorcerers unleash their cursed techniques and cursed tools in a desperate bid for survival. Viewers should expect alliances to form and shatter, betrayals to unfold, and power levels pushed to their limits.

Beyond the Game: While the Culling Game takes center stage, the underlying mysteries of Kenjaku’s plot and the fate of Gojo continue to simmer. Season 3 might offer crucial clues and developments in these larger narratives.
