Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3: “The Culling Game” promises to be the most violent installment to date

Following the successful premiere of the third season on January 8, MAPPA has issued a statement warning viewers about the content of the next episode. According to the studio, the Culling Game arc will reach a peak of graphic violence and extended duration that will mark a milestone in the franchise.

Episode 4, scheduled to air this week, has been described by the staff as a “brutal massacre” that faithfully adapts the rawest moments of Gege Akutami’s manga. The directors have emphasized that the combat choreography and use of cursed techniques required months of additional work. To mitigate potential criticism, the official account posted an explanatory video about the complex rules of the game, helping fans follow the narrative after complaints about the density of the script.

Production continues under the MAPPA label, with a team that has promised to maintain the cinematic quality seen in the Shibuya Incident arc. The plot focuses on Itadori and Megumi’s desperate struggle to stop Kenjaku’s plan within the combat colonies established throughout Japan.

  Jujutsu Kaisen is not afraid to alienate part of its audience with its rawness. This season is vital to prove that anime can handle hyper-complex stories without losing commercial momentum. The explanatory video is a clever response to a community that sometimes feels lost among so many rules of cursed energy.
