Jujutsu Kaisen's third season is finally here, and it is every bit as good as fans expected. The first two episodes were phenomenal, and it's safe to say that the wait was worth it. MAPPA had released a compilation movie prior to the debut of the third season, which covered the entirety of the Shibuya Incident arc as well as the first two episodes of the new installment.
Jujutsu Kaisen Animator Reveals A Major Detail About Season 3
Jujutsu Kaisen animator has confirmed that the anime was in the works for quite some time.
However, not everyone watched the movie. So, a lot of people were eagerly waiting to see the new Jujutsu Kaisen season for themselves. Now that the third season has premiered, fans want to know how many episodes it will have.
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Part 1 Episode Count Has Been Revealed
- JJK Season 3 Part 1 will have 12 episodes
- The second part doesn't have a release date
According to the latest data, Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Part 1 will have 12 episodes in total. At first glance, it seems that MAPPA is making a bad decision, but it's important to remember that the episode count is just for the first part of season 3, meaning the overall number is going to be higher.
Bearing in mind the episode count of the first and second seasons, JJK Season 3 will likely have over 20+ episodes. Since the first part of Season 3 has been confirmed to have 12 episodes, the second part will have the same number of episodes. This will bring the overall number to 24. Therefore, fans don't have to be angry or disappointed.
The decision to split Season 3 into two parts was likely taken to give MAPPA additional time to complete the production of the entire season without compromising the quality. If JJK Season 3 was underwhelming, there would have been massive outrage, especially because fans had been waiting for more than two years for it. The studio was actually smart, and it will keep both the fans and the staff happy.
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Part 2 Release Date
The Second Part Will Likely Come Out In Late 2026
Since the new season has been divided into two halves, fans will want to know when they can expect the second part. At the time of writing, there has been no update from MAPPA, which is understandable as the anime only began airing a few days ago.
The studio is likely going to wait until the first part is over to announce the release date for the next half. Chances are that JJK Season 3 Part 2 will air in 2026, but it's also possible that it might premiere in early 2027. For now, fans should remain patient and wait for an official update.
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Part 1 is available to stream on Crunchyroll.
