Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 production officially begins. Disappointed fans say 'thought we were about watch it soon'
The news, revealed during the Jujutsu Kaisen stage at Anime Expo 2025, has both reassured and frustrated fans who were expecting a more definitive update, such as a release date or teaser trailer.
Despite being renewed immediately after the conclusion of its critically acclaimed second season, the production team behind the hit anime has remained tight-lipped for months.
Hopes were high for a substantial announcement during Jump Festa 2025, but fans were left disappointed. Now, Anime Expo 2025 has brought a sense of déjà vu, delivering yet another minimal update that confirmed progress without providing the much-anticipated details.
The only major revelation was that voice actors have begun recording for Season 3, which will adapt the highly intense Culling Game Arc from Gege Akutami's original manga.
Junya Enoki, the voice of protagonist Itadori Yuuji, assured fans of the action to come, stating, 'JJK season 3 battles are on a whole new level!' Meanwhile, Megumi Ogata, who voices Okkotsu Yuta, teased his character's arc with a dramatic in-character quip: 'I'm gonna kill you,' directed playfully at Enoki during the panel.
With voice recording underway, industry insiders suggest that the series has entered its final production phase, hinting that animation, editing, and post-production are now in motion. However, the absence of a release window or teaser has left many fans unsettled.
Watch the Season Two trailer here:
The fanbase, while excited to hear that progress is finally being made, has voiced frustration over the delayed timeline.
'NOW it's in production??? I thought we were about to WATCH it soon (sic),' one fan exclaimed on social media.
'It took 1.5 years to start production? I guess we should expect season 3 around 2027 (sic),' another added sarcastically.
'The wait was looking like eternity. I will be on my Lumiterra screens till then (sic),' joked one user, referencing another popular anime title.
Another post read, 'Cursed energy levels rising… my sleep schedule just filed a complaint (sic).'
Some fans also speculated on the arc coverage, with one warning fellow viewers: 'Gojo vs Sukuna can't be in this season, boys. Don't expect it (sic).'
While production delays are not uncommon in the anime industry, especially for titles as complex and visually intensive as 'Jujutsu Kaisen', the lack of communication has tested the patience of the fan community.
Still, the confirmation of ongoing work and the involvement of the principal voice cast signal that a return to the world of curses, sorcerers, and high-stakes battles may not be too far off.
As anticipation builds, viewers are keeping their expectations measured but hopeful, awaiting further updates from MAPPA and the production committee regarding the eventual return of one of anime's most explosive contemporary sagas.

Marvel Rivals Season 3 all the changes in the mission structure explained
Image via NetEase Games. With the Season 3 'Abyss Awakens' kicked off in Marvel Rivals, a lot of brand new contents have taken entry into the game. However, this season has also marked a new chapter for these hero-shooter titles as it has brought about a lot of changes in the game, especially in the mission structure. It was already confirmed that Season 3 would introduce the two-month seasonal formula, where the mid-season refresh update would launch the very next month. Along with these changes, new aspects like accessories, mix and match skin MVP animations, a huge array of events, and many more are also set to be featured in this season. Marvel Rivals Season 3 new mission structure explained Season 3 in Marvel Rivals has brought in a lot of new changes, but the most significant ones are the missions in the game. First up, Daily Missions has now been removed from the game. From now on, all the Chrono Tokens will be redistributed to other missions. Previously, fans had to play a limited number of heroes in order to acquire Chrono Token, but that seems to be changing soon as NetEase Games has gotten away with the Daily Missions, and now getting Chrono Tokens would be much easier. There are changes in the Weekly Mission sector as well. Previously, Weekly Missions used to expire after being unfinished over time, but as Season 3 has arrived, any unfinished Weekly Mission will roll-over to the next week, giving fans ample time to complete those. From now on, players can complete 6 out of the 10 missions, which offer 100-240 Chrono Tokens. The remaining ones will be left behind. Season 3 The Abyss Awakens | Dev Vision Vol. 07 | Marvel Rivals However, the most effective and highly awaited change has to be the removal of excessive hero-specific missions. In order to get Chrono Tokens out of these, fans used to play the specific characters which they would have never picked if it wasn't for the missions. There will be Seasonal missions as well, which lasts the entire season. These missions give a combined amount of 360 Chrono Token. The most interesting fact of these missions are that each of the three available missions can be repeated a maximum of four times for yielding more rewards. Last but not the least, Season 3 has introduced a limited-time event mission-bunch called the Milano Repair Logs. This event features a total of 7 logs, each containing three missions. The first missions of each log grants units, and the remaining ones come up with Chrono Tokens, If you are able to complete all the seven logs before the season ends, you will be awarded with a Symbiote Storm costume, which is one of the many outfit themes available in Season 3 .

Was Jo Yuri paid 4.2 billion KRW for Squid Game? Actress spills about paycheck and changes in life post-fame
Former IZ*ONE member and rising actress Jo Yuri has opened up about her experience working on Squid Game. She talked about her sudden rise to global recognition, and the viral rumors surrounding her alleged appearance fee. The singer-turned-actress made a guest appearance on MBC's variety show Point of Omniscient Interfere. She offered fans a rare glimpse into her life after becoming part of one of Netflix's most globally successful franchises. Jo Yuri gains global spotlight after Squid Game success Jo Yuri played the character Kim Jun Hee in both Squid Game Season 2 and its follow-up, Season 3. Her performance as the emotionally layered and fiercely resilient character captured the hearts of millions across the globe. Though once primarily known as a K-pop idol, Yuri has successfully transitioned into acting. And her role in Squid Game has positioned her as a rising global star. During the July 12 broadcast, the show's MCs remarked on the astounding success of Squid Game 3, noting that it had ranked No. 1 in 93 countries on Netflix. They then asked Yuri whether that kind of international attention had translated into any tangible changes in her personal or professional life. With a humble smile, Yuri revealed that the shift was quite dramatic. Her Instagram following had jumped from 1.68 million to more than 7.6 million after her appearance in Squid Game. She went on to explain that the nature of her fan interactions had also changed. Where she once saw mostly Korean-language comments, her posts are now filled with supportive messages from fans all over the world. Jo Yuri shut down rumors about her paycheck As the conversation continued, comedian Yang Se Hyung cautiously brought up one of the hottest rumors swirling online: the claim that Jo Yuri had received 4.2 billion KRW (around 3.05 million USD) for her role in Squid Game. The figure had sparked major buzz among netizens, with many speculating whether such a huge sum was real. Yuri laughed at the rumor and addressed it head-on. 'There was an article that said my appearance fee was 4.2 billion KRW,' she said. 'That's ridiculous…It's much lower.' She declined to reveal the actual amount but made it clear that the publicized figure was heavily inflated. Yuri shares bank account access with her mother Yuri also opened up about her close relationship with her mother and how she handles her finances. When asked if she gives her mom an allowance, the actress revealed that she actually goes beyond that. She explained that she had even gone as far as giving her mother access to her bank account by sharing the password. The hosts expressed shock, joking that it was way more generous than just giving pocket money. Yuri, however, explained that her mother rarely touches the account, saying, 'But my mother hardly ever uses the money.'
