The series ended with an extended episode lasting 27 minutes, aired March 27, 2026, at 10 p.m. No new\/extra episodes will air with this season\u2019s continuation. However, immediately after finishing airing, the next season was announced to be produced based on the manga published after this week\u2019s episode aired. Therefore, the next season will consist of 26 episodes to be called the Culling Game Part II or Shimetsukaiyu Part II.<\/p>\n
Part 1 of season 3 premiered on January 9, 2026, with a 1-hour special episode and included episodes 1 and 2, and concluded with 12 episodes total on March 27, 2026 (single cour). The series aired weekly on Crunchyroll on Thursdays (both subbed and dubbed).<\/p>\n
Part 2 of Season 4 (Culling Games) has not been officially announced by MAPPA, Toho, or Crunchyroll as of April 2026. Currently, January 2027 is the earliest expected release date due to fully booked Japanese MBS\/TBS slots for the remainder of 2026. Some rumours suggest a fall 2027 or later release would be possible to meet production scheduling needs, while season 2\u2019s broadcast timing suggests it will not be during summer 2026.<\/p>\n
Further information could come from AnimeJapan 2026 or MAPPA events. Production continues with \u201cTo Be Continued\u201d at the end of the season 3 finale.<\/p>\n
The first half of the Culling Game arc from the manga (i.e., the first half of season 3) will be adapted in the next season, while the second half will be adapted through the time of the Shinjuku Showdown (the manga lasts all the way to chapter 271). The Shibuya Incident was what forced Kenjaku (who, you\u2019ll remember, is in the body of Geto) to initiate the Culling Game, where awakened\/non-sorcerers will have to kill each other to create enough cursed energy that will help evolve humanity for Tengen\u2019s merging process! This was done so he could rescue his sister, Tsumiki Fushiguro (who didn\u2019t want to be a participant), gain enough points to add rules to the game in hopes of being able to save his friends or escape the game, free Satoru Gojo from the Prisoner Realm, and stop Kenjaku\u2019s plans.<\/p>\n
In season 3, we were introduced to several colonies (Tokyo, Sendai, etc.) and the new players (Hakari, Kashimo, Higuruma, and the other threats specific to their colony) in the Culling Game. Many of the same themes of barriers, domain expansion, and Jujutsu evolution will drive the development of the story through the climax of the battles in the next season (season 4).<\/p>\n
In season 4 (the conclusion of the Culling Game arc), the intensity and complexity of the battles will increase; we will see major character\/plot developments related to Maki\u2019s growth, Yuta\u2019s role in the Culling Game, and Hakari\u2019s games; the manipulation of rules; and huge confrontations with reincarnated heavy hitters (Yorozu, Ishigori, Uro) will create the basis for the Culling Game arc.<\/p>\n
The core cast returns, with many new additions for Culling Game characters introduced in Part 1 (and more expected in Part 2).<\/p>\n
