This article contains spoilers from the Jujutsu Kaisen series.

Attack on Titan was a massive hit in the anime world, and many fans consider it a defining series for their generation. Its dark, complex story and intense action were groundbreaking, and few shows have reached that same level since. Now that the series has officially ended, it’s left a void that hasn’t quite been filled, although some anime have come close.

It’s hard to imagine another story quite like *Attack on Titan*, but many fans who enjoyed it are now loving *Jujutsu Kaisen*. Like *Attack on Titan*, *Jujutsu Kaisen* isn’t afraid to be dark and violent, even though it’s a Shonen series, and it really delves into mature and difficult topics. While *Attack on Titan* has finished, *Jujutsu Kaisen* is confirmed to return with a new season in 2026.

Jujutsu Kaisen Is the Best Successor for Attack on Titan

JJK Returns With Season 3 in 2026

  • The two series are filled with complex plotlines
  • Attack on Titan and JJK feature many deaths

Jujutsu Kaisen has become a hugely popular Shonen anime. Although it started modestly, the anime adaptation caused a massive surge in its popularity, breaking numerous records. The manga’s sales quickly surpassed those of other top series, including *One Piece*, proving that Jujutsu Kaisen is among the best stories ever told, alongside hits like *Attack on Titan* and *One Piece*.

While nothing quite matches Attack on Titan, Jujutsu Kaisen shares many similar themes, particularly its willingness to show dark and disturbing content. Both series’ authors, Hajime Isayama and Gege Akutami, aren’t afraid to kill off important characters or create incredibly twisted storylines. For fans of Attack on Titan looking for something new, Jujutsu Kaisen is a great choice. The highly anticipated Season 3, featuring the Culling Game, will arrive in January 2026. If the first two seasons were shocking, Season 3 promises to be even more intense and unsettling, delivering a viewing experience that will leave audiences stunned. It’s coming soon, in just a few months.

Now that Gojo is gone, the main characters will be forced to confront terrifying ancient threats and powerful enemies determined to bring about the world’s destruction. All of this will unfold in Season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen, which is coming soon.
