Why the first episode of the 3rd season exceeded all expectations
Of all the series coming in 2026, Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 was definitely the most anticipated among fans. JJK Season 2 which aired 3 years ago was amazing so expectations were naturally high. Fans have been desperately waiting for this new TV season as it explores one of the most exciting parts of the manga, the Culling Game arc. Needless to say, JJK season 3 was amazing and the direction of the talented Shota Goshozono made it even better. JJK Season 3 is proof that it is the best produced and directed anime season in recent times and it exceeded all the expectations of the fans with its quality.

Of course, most fans of the story are well aware that the 3rd season of JJK itself does not end and there is one more pitch left. However, some dire news regarding the second course has just been revealed.
New information suggests that JJK Season 3 Part 2 will not be released in 2026. At this point, the earliest release date for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Part 2 appears to be January 2027. This is shocking to fans as most would have expected it to return in late 2026. This news is quite strong and based on broadcast information. The latest broadcast schedule has been revealed and they are going to fill the time slot for JJK Season 1 Part 3 with more series until January 2027. This could also mean that JJK Season 2 Part 3 will simply air at a different time. However, this is highly unlikely, as it is not common for series to simply change their air time out of the blue.

Fans are worried about the latter course as Shota Goshozono is rumored to be off the production team, but they could still bring in an equally talented director to work on the most hyped installments of the series. After all, Part 2 of this TV season is where things really heat up in the Culling Game.
Evaluation of the current state of Jujutsu Kaisen
Jujutsu Kaisen is one of the most popular shonen anime series of modern times. While the manga is amazing, the anime struck gold with an incredibly awesome wand that only served to elevate it even more. At this point, it looks like the anime for the series will continue for several years, especially since the Culling Game arc is expected to end in 2027.
On the other hand, JJK's manga has been a sensation and has already crossed 150 million sales, with the number increasing every year. Sadly, the manga content completely dried up and the Modulo sequel reached its conclusion last week. At this point, it would seem that the only project that JJK can look forward to is his TV anime.
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 is available to watch on Crunchyroll.
