What Is Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 About?
The newly released preview for Episodes 1 and 2 gives a clear idea of the grim direction Season 3 is taking. Following the devastating events of the Shibuya Incident, Tokyo has become a cursed wasteland, overrun by dangerous spirits.
Yuji Itadori and Choso move through the ruined city, quietly exorcising curses while staying hidden from the Jujutsu authorities. Their mission takes a sudden turn when Naoya Zenin appears, attacking them with his own ruthless agenda.
Naoya plans to assassinate Megumi Fushiguro in order to claim leadership of the Zenin clan. During this encounter, Yuji learns a horrifying truth — his suspension from execution has been lifted. Once again, he is officially marked for death by the Jujutsu higher-ups.
Yuta Okkotsu Enters the Picture
The situation escalates further with the arrival of Yuta Okkotsu, a special-grade sorcerer. Assigned as Yuji’s executioner, Yuta attacks without hesitation. Faced with Yuta’s overwhelming cursed energy, Yuji is pushed to his absolute limits.
This confrontation sets the tone for Season 3 — relentless, brutal, and emotionally heavy.
What to Expect Going Forward
Season 3 introduces new rules, powerful characters, intense combat sequences, and some of the most shocking moments in the entire Jujutsu Kaisen storyline. With high stakes and no room for mercy, the series dives deeper into the cost of survival in the Jujutsu world.
