JUJUTSU KAISEN fans around the world have an important date coming up. The hit anime’s third season, titled The Culling Game: Part 1, will begin on January 8, 2026, and a newly released teaser visual offers an early glimpse of what is coming next.
The new illustration, drawn by MAPPA, highlights a fierce clash between Yuji Itadori and Yuta Okkotsu that appears in the first two episodes. These episodes were screened early in December at a theatrical event called JUJUTSU KAISEN: Execution, which paired the Shibuya Incident feature film with an advance look at The Culling Game.
In The Culling Game, Yuta Okkotsu, the special grade jujutsu sorcerer and protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen 0, enters the fray as an executioner, turning his blade toward Itadori. "The Cursed Two," bound by a shared mentor, ignite one of the most iconic and ferocious battles from the original manga.
Fans are encouraged to look ahead to the full rollout of JUJUTSU KAISEN Season Three beginning in January 2026.
