Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Episode 1 And 2 Release Date

This post contains spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen.

Jujutsu Kaisen fans have a date to look forward to: January 2026! That’s when the highly anticipated third season of the show will finally premiere, and viewers are eager to see what exciting events it holds.

With Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 concluding in December 2023, a quick refresher is helpful for fans. The season primarily focused on the intense Shibuya Incident arc, which featured major character deaths, thrilling battles, and a pivotal event involving the world’s strongest jujutsu sorcerer.

Gojo Satoru Was Sealed Away By Kenjaku

Many fans recall Gojo Satoru being trapped during the Shibuya Incident by Kenjaku. Kenjaku carefully planned to wear Gojo down and then seal him with minimal struggle. While it initially seemed Gojo would avoid the trap, he ultimately fell for Kenjaku’s scheme. With Gojo out of the picture, Kenjaku was able to move forward with the next step of his plan.

Gojo Satoru’s capture was a major win for Kenjaku and the cursed spirits, eliminating the biggest threat they faced. It also gave the leaders of Jujutsu High more freedom to act as they pleased, and one of their first decisions was to order the execution of Itadori Yuji.

Yuta Okkotsu Is Hunting Itadori Yuji

The season 2 finale featured the highly anticipated arrival of Yuta Okkotsu, which thrilled fans. However, the excitement quickly turned to disappointment when it became clear Yuta wasn’t there to help Yuji. Instead, he’d been sent with the mission to destroy Yuji and eliminate the dangerous Ryomen Sukuna.

Honestly, watching Itadori develop has been amazing, but let’s be real – he’s still got a ways to go before he can take on someone like Yuta. Yuta’s a special grade sorcerer, which is a whole different level! So, the smartest thing for Itadori to do right now is just… stay out of Yuta’s reach, you know?

Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Episode 1 And 2 Release Date

  • Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Episode 1 will premiere on January 8th
  • JJK Season 3 Episode 2 will also be released on the same day

The first two episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 will premiere on January 8, 2026. Episode 1 is titled “Execution,” and Episode 2 is called “Once More/Again.” New preview images released on the anime’s official X (formerly Twitter) account show that Itadori Yuji and Yuta Okkotsu will be central characters, which fans likely expected given how Season 2 ended.

Sorry, Itadori-kun. —Yuta Okkotsu

The preview shows Yuta and Yuji battling, suggesting the first two episodes will be packed with action. A key question is how Yuji will manage to survive, especially now that Gojo Satoru is no longer around to protect him, leaving him vulnerable. Hopefully, other characters will step in to help him.

Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 will introduce many new characters. With Gojo Satoru’s absence, these additions are particularly important, though they aren’t meant to simply replace him. Despite this, they promise to be compelling and impactful.

These characters are key to the story, so it’s best not to form opinions about them right away. We’ll likely see some new faces in the first couple of episodes, and it would make sense for them to appear after the battle between Yuji and Yuta is finished.
