(Image credit: Gege Akutami/Shueisha, JUJUTSU KAISEN Project) Jump Festa 2025 has been and gone and we’re still none the wiser as to when the Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 release date is. All we know so far is that the new Jujutsu Kaisen season will adapt the manga’s Culling Game arc. Given how the Shibuya Incident went down, we’d expect plenty more action and mayhem from the shonen anime. Whether you’re a newcomer or well-versed in the source material, we’re here to guide you through the essentials and other confirmed news surrounding Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 (aka one of thebest anime seriesever made), includingconfirmation of a compilation film. On top of that, we’ve got our very own release date speculation, a look at the very first teaser trailer, a new key visual, and a glance ahead to which manga chapters it could adapt. There’s also the latest on thenew animecoming in the next 12 months, includingDemon Slayer Infinity Castle movie trilogyandOne-Punch Man season 3. Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 release date speculation (Image credit: Gege Akutami/Shueisha, JUJUTSU KAISEN Project) Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 was announced after the culmination ofJujutsu Kaisen season 2, AKA the Shibuya Incident arc – which aired from July 2023 to December 2023. Given the scope of the next Culling Game story arc, expect a similarly sized season and, unfortunately, a similar wait to the gap between seasons one and two (around two years). The first teaser appears to be early sketch work and a release window hasn’t been announced, which usually doesn’t bode well for any hopes of it releasing anytime soon. Expectfall2025to be the earliest release window for Jujutsu Kaisen season 3, especially now that the Hidden Inventory/Premature Death compilation movie is coming to cinemas in May. Given that animation studio MAPPA is currently working on theChainsaw Man movie, 2026 may even be more realistic. That means that there is plenty of time for a re-watch of the entire series. Check out our in-depth breakdown on how to watchJujutsu Kaisen in order, if you fancy a refresher. Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 story: what’s happened and what chapters will be adapted next? (Image credit: Gege Akutami/Shueisha, JUJUTSU KAISEN Project) Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 will follow on from the Shibuya Incident, which saw ‘Geto’ and Mahito attempt to seal away Gojo for good.

As a veil envelops Shibuya, the likes of Yuji and Megumi helping turn the tide against the villains. Choso, the third Death Painting sibling, tried to seek revenge against Yuji, but stopped short of killing his foe after seeing visions of his brother – and Yuji. The end of the Shibuya Arc saw ‘Geto’/Kenjaku awaken several non-sorcerers (those who had ingested cursed objects or had latent abilities of their own, including a certain Tsumiki Fushiguro). That’s all part of a plan to have sorcerers and non-sorcerers kill each other. Later, Gojo is exiled from Jujutsu society, with Yuji being sentenced to death – and swordsman Yuta (who you may remember from the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 movie) named as his executioner. (Image credit: Gege Akutami/Shueisha, JUJUTSU KAISEN Project) What’s next? Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 is all set to adapt the Culling Game arc of the manga (chapters 159-221), but before that, there are a few briefer story arcs to cover. Itadori’s Extermination (chapters 137-143) kicked off at the tail-end of Jujutsu Kaisen season 2, and its story is self-evident: it’ll hinge on the death – or attempted execution, anyway – of Yuji. Then, season 3 will likely move on to the Perfect Preparation arc (chapters 144-158), which will see our band of sorcerers prepare for the Culling Game – a tournament arc-of-sorts that acts as a mega Jujutsu battle royale. Fun times ahead! Seeing as how season 2 covered around 70 chapters and season 3 will aim for 80+, we expect some things to be cut for time so we get a 23 or 24-episode season. Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 trailer Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 (Culling Game Arc) - Official Announcement Teaser Trailer - YouTubeWatch On Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 (Culling Game Arc) - Official Announcement Teaser Trailer - YouTube Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 (Culling Game Arc) - Official Announcement Teaser Trailer - YouTube The first Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 trailer is very brief, clocking in at only 20 seconds long and serving only to announce that the Culling Game arc will be adapted. It may not be a lot, but at least the short clip shows some of Jujutsu’s key players in sketch form – including ‘Geto’ and Yuji. Watch it for yourself above. A new key visual was also released as part of Jump Festa 2025. It doesn’t tease much, but does show Yuji and his bloodied hand. (Image credit: Gege Akutami/Shueisha, JUJUTSU KAISEN Project) Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 cast: who is returning? (Image credit: Gege Akutami/Shueisha, JUJUTSU KAISEN Project) There is no confirmation yet, though we expect Yuji (Junya Enoki) and Megumi (Yuma Uchida) to return alongside Gojo (Yuichi Nakamura). Takahiro Sakurai will likely reprise his role as Geto/Kenjaku, while we also expect to hear more from Yuta (Megumi Ogata) and Megumi’s step-brother Tsumiki (Saori Hayami) Nobara and Nanami, given their deaths (or presumed deaths, in one case), will likely only appear in flashbacks – if at all.
