Jujutsu Kaisen The season came to an end earlier this week after a long and rather dismal season. You won’t be surprised to learn that another season is in the works, again courtesy of MAP.
Following the Season 2 finale, MAPPA released a teaser video announcing a showdown between series lead Yuji Itadori and Yuta Okkotsu, who long-time fans will remember as the lead of last year’s rather sweet film. Jujutsu Kaisen 0
The third season will basically pick up where the previous season left off. Yuta – returning to Japan after so long abroad – is tasked with killing Yuji after Sukuna’s rampage during the Shibuya Incident. But it’s not long before the duo and other surviving characters from last season are drawn into the Culling Game, a battle royale in which all players earn points by killing other players with jujutsu sorcery. It’s the series’ entry into a tournament arc, and like all variations of this shonen classic, it means introducing a host of new characters with their own strange powers. The Culling Game is the longest manga to date at 63 chapters, and the third season will likely encompass this and tie in the previous storylines for Itadori’s destruction and preparation for the Culling Game.
At the time of writing, there is a release window for Jujutsu Kaisens The third season has not yet been revealed. The first two seasons and Kaisen 0 are available in full on Crunchryoll.
