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.

Farah Khan Does Not Support Deepika Padukone's 8-Hour Shift: 'Sona Tapke Hi Banta Hai'

The work-life balance debate in Bollywood started after Sandeep Reddy Vanga removed Deepika Padukone from Prabhas starrer Spirit earlier this year. Ever since Deepika Padukone was ousted from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit due to her requests for an eight-hour workday, it has sparked a debate around work-life balance in Bollywood. While many have come forward in support of the actress, Farah Khan has now hinted that she does not support the idea. In one of her recent YouTube vlogs, Farah Khan visited Radhikka Madan when the latter recalled her first audition for Meri Aashiqui Tumse Hi. 'The moment the camera was switched on, I felt very safe. I never felt that safe in my life. I wanted to be a professional dancer. The way I used to feel on the stage, you can't see anyone else, I felt the same in front of the camera. I thought of course mujhe nahi lenge, but within three days I got a call for a look test and within 2 days, I was shooting for my first show," she said. When Farah asked, 'You didn't have an 8-hour shift, I am guessing?", Radhikka replied, '56 hours non-stop or 48 hours non-stop." At this point, Farah hinted that even she does not support an 8-hour work shift and shared, 'Aise tapke hi toh sona banta hai (this is how gold is made)." For the unversed, the work-life balance debate in Bollywood started after Sandeep Reddy Vanga removed Deepika Padukone from Prabhas starrer Spirit earlier this year. Reports suggest that her demands, including eight-hour workdays, a high salary, and a share in the film's profits, did not sit well with director Vanga. Deepika, a new mother, is reportedly seeking to balance her work and personal life by reducing her working hours. Several celebrities, including Vikrant Massey, Rashmika Mandanna and Anurag Basu, have come out in support of Deepika amid the ongoing discussion. Interestingly, Farah Khan and Deepika Padukone have worked on several films together. The latter's debut movie, Om Shanti Om, was also directed by Farah.

Sandeep Reddy Vanga Confirms Prabhas, Triptii Dimri's Spirit Begins Filming This September

Last Updated: Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga confirms Prabhas, Triptii Dimri's Spirit starts filming in September with back-to-back schedules. Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga has officially confirmed that his much-anticipated film Spirit, starring Prabhas and Triptii Dimri, will begin shooting in September 2025. The announcement came during a recent chat with Vijay Deverakonda and filmmaker Gowtam Tinnanuri on the Sithara Entertainments YouTube channel. Sandeep revealed that Spirit will have back-to-back schedules and a non-stop shooting plan once it hits the floors. Spirit made headlines earlier this year when Deepika Padukone exited the project following disagreements over working hours and compensation. Reports suggested that Deepika was advocating for a strict eight-hour workday, a demand that could not be accommodated by the production team. Following her exit, Triptii Dimri was roped in to play the female lead opposite Prabhas. According to reports by Rangasthalam, Sandeep has already completed the musical compositions for Spirit in collaboration with composer Harshavardhan Rameshwar. Backed by T-Series and Bhadrakali Pictures, Spirit is one of the most awaited action dramas in Indian cinema and is expected to hit theatres in 2027. The film reportedly presents Prabhas in a never-seen-before avatar, adding to fans' excitement. Earlier, a source close to the project revealed, 'Sandeep Reddy Vanga wants to shoot for Spirit in a certain way and has requested Prabhas to acquire a lean physique. The idea is to ensure most stunts are performed by Prabhas himself. The Rebel Star is excited about the challenge and is working closely with Sandeep to mold himself into the character." After wrapping up Spirit, Sandeep will begin scripting Animal Park, the much-anticipated sequel to his 2023 blockbuster Animal. With high expectations riding on Spirit, fans are eagerly awaiting to see what cinematic magic Sandeep Reddy Vanga and Prabhas will bring to the screen.
