Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3: Everything You Need to Know About Release Date & Plot
The third season of Jujutsu Kaisen has officially been confirmed, promising to adapt the highly anticipated Culling Game arc from the manga. Although we expect the season to be released in Spring 2025, production changes could lead to slight delays. Here’s what we know so far about Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, including potential release dates, plot details, and other key updates. A Global Phenomenon: Jujutsu kaisen’s Rise Since its debut in 2018, Jujutsu Kaisen, created by Gege Akutami, has grown into a massive success, selling over 90 million copies worldwide. The anime, which blends supernatural action with heart-pounding battles, has earned a special place among shonen fans, ranking in the top 30 best-selling manga of all time. The story revolves around Yuji Itadori, a good-hearted high school student who joins his school’s Occult Club for fun. But soon, he discovers that the members are real sorcerers, leading him into a dangerous world involving cursed objects and spirits. One of the central elements is Sukuna’s cursed talisman, which attracts cursed beings eager to possess its power. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3: Production & What’s Confirmed Jujutsu Kaisen currently has two anime seasons and a feature film. Season 1 was directed by Sunghoo Park, while Shota Goshozono took over in Season 2. Both seasons and the movie were animated by Studio MAPPA. With Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 confirmed, Studio MAPPA will return to produce, with Goshozono continuing as director. The anime’s first season, which consists of 24 episodes, aired in October 2020. It was followed by the movie in December 2021 and the second season, which premiered in July 2023. Naturally, fans are now eager to know when Season 3, Episode 1 will arrive. When Will Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Release? Although no official release date has been set for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, fans eagerly await announcements from Studio MAPPA. Speculation suggests a Spring 2025 release, though it could be pushed to Summer 2025. Without a trailer and with only one key visual revealed, a late 2025 release seems more likely, giving MAPPA more time to refine the production. Given the anime’s enormous popularity, excitement for the new season is building steadily. Fans will need to stay tuned for further updates from the studio and official channels. What to Expect from Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3’s Plot The anime has so far adapted the first 16 volumes of the manga, concluding with Chapter 137. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 will likely pick up where the story left off, starting from Chapter 138 or Volume 16. If you’re too excited to wait, you can dive into Volume 16 of the Jujutsu Kaisen manga, which is available in English. As of 2024, there are 28 volumes of Jujutsu Kaisen manga available in Japan, with the story still ongoing. However, the series is expected to conclude in just five more chapters. The third season of the anime will likely adapt volumes 16 to 24, spanning around 23-24 episodes, much like the previous seasons. If you haven’t read the manga yet, I highly recommend checking it out. Given the manga’s expected conclusion, it will take just one more season to adapt the remaining content from the Jujutsu Kaisen franchise.

Final Thoughts on Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 The animation industry in Japan faces increasing challenges, including a shortage of staff and a growing demand for higher-quality content. While these factors may cause delays we hope that the production of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 will not severely impact Studio. MAPPA which is producing the series is also navigating these industry-wide obstacles.
