This post contains spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen.

The central conflict in Jujutsu Kaisen is the Culling Game. Fans have eagerly awaited MAPPA’s adaptation of the manga, and the latest episodes prove the studio has successfully brought it to life. Season 3 promises not only stunning animation but also a compelling story, with Kenjaku playing a key role.

During the third season, Tengen shared crucial information about Kenjaku, including the goal behind the Culling Game. Kenjaku has been a danger to people for hundreds of years, and now that he’s sealed away Gojo Satoru, he’s closer than ever to achieving his aims.

Kenjaku’s True Plan For The Culling Game Has Been Revealed

  • Kenjaku wants to forcibly evolve humans
  • He is one step closer to accomplishing his goal

The newest episode of the series revealed that Kenjaku has been secretly working for centuries to change people all over Japan. It also confirmed a connection between Tengen, the Six Eyes ability, and the Star Plasma Vessel. This explains why Kenjaku has been defeated twice before by people with the Six Eyes.

When his plans were thwarted, Kenjaku resolved to kill the next potential user of the technique and the Star Plasma Vessel. He believed that once they were gone, he could finally begin his scheme. However, things didn’t go as planned – on the day Tengen was supposed to be absorbed, both Six Eyes and the Star Plasma Vessel unexpectedly reappeared.

Even after his initial plan failed, Kenjaku didn’t quit. He changed tactics, deciding to imprison the next user of Six Eyes instead of killing them, which led him to seek out the Prison Realm. Things got even better for Kenjaku when Toji Fushiguro killed the Star Plasma Vessel. This unexpected event freed Tengen and Six Eyes from their predetermined fate. Toji’s interference was a huge advantage, bringing Kenjaku closer to achieving his goals.

Things continued to go well for him, especially when he met Suguru Geto, a sorcerer who could control curses. After Geto died, Kenjaku seized the chance to possess his body. This allowed Kenjaku to move forward with his plan to trap Gojo Satoru, leading him to create the Shibuya Incident. Luckily for Kenjaku, the incident unfolded as planned, and Gojo Satoru was successfully sealed away in the Prison Realm.

It’s clear that Kenjaku is the main villain of Jujutsu Kaisen’s third season, as he’s the one behind the Culling Game. Now that Yuji and his friends know what Kenjaku is planning, thanks to Tengen, they’re determined to stop him. Tsukumo and Choso stayed with Tengen to protect him if Kenjaku attacks, while Megumi and Maki are searching the Zenin clan’s treasury for useful items. That leaves Yuji and Yuta with the job of finding Hakari, a suspended third-year student at Jujutsu High, and bringing him on board. With everyone assigned their tasks, the upcoming episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 promise to be packed with excitement and suspense.

Okay, so we’ve got a huge problem! Not only do we need to take down Kenjaku, but we have to rescue Gojo from that awful Prison Realm. Luckily, Tengen mentioned this sorcerer, Angel, who has the power to wipe out Cursed Techniques, and that might be our only way to get Gojo out. It’s frustrating because we would’ve normally used either the Inverted Spear of Heaven or Black Rope for a rescue like this, but both of those are gone now, completely destroyed! It’s really putting the pressure on us to find another solution.

Normally, the heroes might have waited to rescue Gojo Satoru, but with the future of humanity at stake, that would be a huge mistake. Saving him is critical because he’s the only one powerful enough to defeat any threat. Without Gojo, humanity could face total destruction and become something unrecognizable. We can expect Season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen to show us more about the rescue and how it impacts what’s coming next.
