Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 will bring Gojo vs Sukuna — here's what to expect
The wait for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 just got a lot more dangerous. Why? Because the most anticipated showdown in modern anime — Gojo vs Sukuna is finally on its way. That's right. The world's strongest sorcerer is about to square off against the King of Curses, and if you're not already losing sleep thinking about it, you clearly haven't been paying attention.bAs MAPPA gears up to adapt the Culling Game arc in 2026, fans everywhere are bracing for the fight that will redefine shounen anime battles forever.And while we wait (and spiral), let's break down what we know, what to expect, and why this clash is more than just fists and fancy domains.
What makes the
Gojo
vs
Sukuna
fight in
Jujutsu Kaisen
so special
Source: Youtube
Let's be clear: Gojo and Sukuna aren't just strong. They're broken. Gojo has the Six Eyes, Limitless cursed technique, and Infinity itself. Meanwhile, Sukuna — now fully unleashed — isn't just riding on his original curse power but also let's just say, he's playing with borrowed tools that fans of a certain shadow user will recognise (no spoilers, anime-only fam!). This isn't your usual protagonist-vs-villain dynamic.
These two are god-tier beings with opposite ideologies: Gojo fights to protect the weak. Sukuna? He just wants to watch the world burn — elegantly.
Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 Culling game arc is chaos unlocked

MAPPA has confirmed that Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 will cover the Culling Game arc, starting from manga chapter 159. This arc brings in new cursed users, new rules, new locations — and sets the perfect stage for Gojo to break free and finally clash with Sukuna. According to the manga timeline (don't worry, no major spoilers here), this battle is a turning point.
It's poetic, brutal, and emotionally catastrophic — aka perfect for MAPPA's emotionally draining animation style.
Visual spectacle incoming

If you thought Gojo's fights in Season 2 looked crisp, imagine what MAPPA will do when they have:
Two of the strongest domain expansions ever animated
Hand-to-hand combat at lightning speed
Literal reality-breaking attacks
A fanbase foaming at the mouth for every frame
This won't just be a fight — it'll be an event. Expect:
Flashbacks
Monologues
Screen-shaking sakuga
Maybe even a few tears (yours, not Gojo's)
What Jujutsu Kaisen anime-only fans should brace for
Source: Crunchyroll
Let's put it this way: if Shibuya broke your heart, this might stomp on it.
This arc is less about good vs evil and more about what it means to carry a legacy, especially when you're not allowed to lose. Without giving anything away, just know:
There are consequences
There are sacrifices
And there are moments that change everything
So yes, the Gojo vs Sukuna fight is happening in Season 3 — but it's not the only thing that'll leave you gasping. This season is a full-blown, high-stakes emotional storm.
When is Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 releasing?
Source: Crunchyroll
Crunchyroll confirmed that Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 is in production, but due to MAPPA's overloaded schedule, the official release is expected in spring or summer 2026.
So start emotionally preparing now — you're going to need the buffer. Until then? Rewatch Season 2. Revisit Gojo's backstory. Whisper 'Domain Expansion' into the void and hope for the best.
Final thoughts: Who's winning in Jujutsu Kaisen?
Source: IMDB
Let's be honest — we all have our biases. Gojo fans are unhinged (with love). Sukuna fans are terrifyingly loyal. And manga readers are currently sitting in dark corners whispering, 'They're not ready.' But no matter who walks away, this fight is going to define the entire anime landscape of 2026.So here's what to expect: unprecedented animation quality, pain, the anime moment of the decade, pain again and Gojo in sunglasses, hopefully.

Peacemaker season 2: Which DC villains are hunting John Cena's antihero?
John Cena's Christopher Smith is gearing up for a brutal fight in Peacemaker season 2. The HBO Max series, directed by James Gunn, returns August 21 after more than three years, bringing with it a mix of new heroes and a roster of villains drawn straight from DC's archives. Gunn has confirmed that six heavy-hitting antagonists will appear this season, setting the stage for chaos, reports The Direct. Peacemaker Season 2: John Cena's Christopher Smith is set to face new and old villains this time.(Screengrab/YouTube) This second outing is not just about action. Cena's antihero is still dealing with the fallout of The Suicide Squad and his messy past, even as he is being hunted from all directions. Also read: James Gunn shares first Supergirl Poster following Superman's box office success Peacemaker Season 2: White Dragon and the return of nightmares One of the biggest surprises is the return of White Dragon. In season 1, Robert Patrick's Auggie Smith - Peacemaker's abusive father - met his end. But footage from season 2 shows a new White Dragon costume, this time with a blue color scheme. The video hints it could be Auggie reappearing in visions, as he did during the season 1 finale, or someone entirely new carrying the mantle. Frank Grillo's Rick Flag Sr. also joins the season, gunning for revenge after Peacemaker killed his son, Rick Flag Jr., in The Suicide Squad. That showdown promises some of the most emotionally charged moments this season, according to The Direct.

Gunn called him 'the world's foremost eagle hunter,' which instantly makes Eagly, Peacemaker's loyal sidekick, a target. Nhut Le's Judomaster is back as well, though his allegiance is unclear. He spent most of season 1 fighting Peacemaker, but this time his role could swing either way. Sean Gunn steps in as Maxwell Lord, a character with a shady reputation in DC lore. He appears to be connected to Justice League recruitment efforts, but fans know Lord is rarely trustworthy. Rounding out the villain squad is White Rabbit, played by Brey Noelle. Known in comics as a socialite with super speed and cloning abilities, she is making her live-action debut. FAQs Who is the main villain in Peacemaker season 2? Six villains, including White Dragon and Maxwell Lord, are set to appear. When does Peacemaker season 2 premiere? The first episode debuts on August 21. Which actors are joining season 2? Michael Rooker, Sean Gunn, Brey Noelle, and Frank Grillo are confirmed for new roles. Will Judomaster be a villain again? His role has not been confirmed, but he is expected to have major fight scenes.

Kajol cheers for daughter Nysa Devgan as she graduates, netizens say ‘Anjali from K3G energy' — WATCH
Bollywood couple Kajol and Ajay Devgn's daughter Nysa Devgan is now a graduate. The star kid attended the Glion Institute of Higher Education in Montreux, Switzerland. A clip from her graduation ceremony has surfaced online on Saturday as Kajol attended her daughter's graduation and cheered loudly for her 'baby.' Nysa's graduation ceremony was telecast live on YouTube. A clip from the live session has surfaced online, featuring Nysa. Dressed in the traditional graduation robe over a lilac dress, she was spotted smiling as she walked onto the stage to receive her degree from her teachers. While some are heard cheering for her, it was Kajol who was the loudest of all. Kajol is heard screaming, "Come on baby." Even Nysa's teachers couldn't resist from passing a giggle at Kajol's excitement. Sharing the video on X, formerly Twitter, someone wrote, "Congratulations Nysa!!! (In the chaos of 100s I can actually hear Kajol's "C'mon babyyyy!!" So clearly )." Kajol's reaction immediately reminded fans of her character Anjali from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. 'She's truly the real life anjali. 'haaye… meri beti' (sic)," commented a fan. Another added, 'This is so Anjali from K3g energy.' Someone also said, 'It's the Anjali in her.' It is not known if Ajay Devgn joined Kajol and Nysa at their daughter's graduation. The Raid 2 actor is yet to post about Nysa's graduation. Nysa Devgan previously studied in Singapore at the United World College of South East Asia, before moving to Switzerland to pursue her undergraduate degree. While Nysa is Ajay and Kajol's first child, they also have a son, Yug Devgan. Yug is currently completing his school. Meanwhile, it is not certain if Nysa will make her debut in Bollywood after finishing her graduation. Kajol and Ajay have repeatedly stated that Nysa is not interested in joining the industry as of yet. Talking about Nysa, recently Kajol told Zoom: 'When I look at her, I feel, my God, she is the woman we all want to be. It is this amazing quality which today's girls have that they expect to be treated well. They expect to be treated with the same dignity. They expect good manners. If you are not there, they call you out.' "I am very proud of her. I have said that to her as well. I am proud of the fact that she carries herself with so much dignity and grace. I think it is always a test of your character when you are faced with uncomfortable situations, and how you react to them. It shows your true mettle. I am proud of my upbringing and my daughter," the actor also said.
