One of the biggest highlights of this winter anime season is the return of Jujutsu Kaisen. The Culling Game Part 1 kicks off this week on Crunchyroll, picking up after the chaos of the Shibuya Incident in Season 2. Here’s everything you need to know.

Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Episode Release Schedule

The third season of Jujutsu Kaisen is expected to run for between 24 and 26 episodes total. These episodes will be split up into two cours, thus The Culling Games Part 1. Depending on the full episode count, each cours will include 12 or 13 episodes.

The new season will premiere with two episodes, releasing on Crunchyroll on January 8 at 9am PT. Subsequent episodes will be released weekly on Thursdays. Here’s the episode release information we have so far:

Aside from an unknown episode total, it’s also unclear whether the season will take a break between cours (the most likely outcome) or carry through into the next anime season. We’ll continue to update this guide as more information gets announced.
