00:00:00Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, Episode 1, begins with Yuji Itadori running across buildings
00:00:06while being chased by a massive cursed spirit.
00:00:09As Yuji tries to escape, the curse suddenly grabs him.
00:00:13Before it can kill him, the curse is struck down by another sorcerer and its body collapses
00:00:19onto Yuji.
00:00:20The one who killed the curse is Yuta Okotsu.
00:00:23However, it is immediately revealed that Yuta is not there to save Yuji.
00:00:27He has been assigned to execute him.
00:00:30The story then shifts back to the Zenin clan.
00:00:33Naoya Zenin is shown mocking his own mother and openly insulting women, comparing them
00:00:38to Maki Zenin.
00:00:40He meets Genichi Zenin and Ogi Zenin, who scold him for arriving late while his father is
00:00:45on his deathbed.
00:00:46Naoya shows no concern and confidently declares that he will become the next head of the Zenin
00:00:52clan.
00:00:52Soon after, they receive the news that Naobito Zenin has died.
00:00:56His will states that Naoya will inherit the clan and its assets, including the cursed tool
00:01:02stored at Jujutsu High.
00:01:03However, if Satoru Gojo dies or becomes permanently unable to fight, Megumi Fushiguro will become
00:01:10the head instead.
00:01:11This condition deeply angers Naoya.
00:01:14Learning that Megumi is currently in Tokyo searching for Yuji Itadori, Naoya decides to kill both
00:01:20of them so that the inheritance will remain his.
00:01:22Back in Tokyo, Yuji is seen resting alone when Choso approaches him and asks about his injuries.
00:01:29Yuji says he is recovering, possibly due to Sukuna, and can feel his power increasing.
00:01:34Choso suggests returning to Jujutsu High, but Yuji refuses, blaming himself for Sukuna's
00:01:40actions and the deaths of innocent people.
00:01:43He also apologizes for killing Choso's brothers.
00:01:46Choso tells him that they would have forgiven him, because they are brothers, and that family
00:01:50is what truly matters.
00:01:52Yuji then runs through the city, deliberately attracting cursed spirits towards himself.
00:01:57He defeats several of them with ease and leads the rest into an underground bridge where Choso
00:02:02is waiting.
00:02:03Using piercing blood, Choso destroys the curses in a single attack.
00:02:08When one curse tries to ambush Choso, Yuji instantly kills it.
00:02:12Choso realizes that Yuji has learned to control his cursed energy and has become far stronger
00:02:18than before.
00:02:18Before Choso can speak further, Naoya Zenin appears and asks about Megumi Fushiguro's
00:02:24location.
00:02:25Yuji questions why they should run, and Naoya reveals that Yuji has been sentenced to death
00:02:30now that Satoru Gojo is gone.
00:02:32Naoya un attacks without hesitation, easily overpowering both Yuji and Choso with his speed.
00:02:39Choso realizes Naoya must be using a special technique, while Naoya wonders about Choso's identity.
00:02:45Suddenly, a massive surge of cursed energy fills the area.
00:02:49Yuji briefly thinks it might be Satoru Gojo, but instead, Yuta Upkotsu appears, landing with
00:02:55enough force to shatter the ground.
00:02:58Naoya recognizes Yuta as the sorcerer assigned to kill Yuji, and steps aside.
00:03:03Choso urges Yuji to escape, warning him that fighting Yuta would mean certain death.
00:03:08Yuji runs, but Yuta quickly catches up to him.
00:03:11Meanwhile, Choso fights Naoya, who mocks blood manipulation, and claims that only piercing
00:03:17blood is truly dangerous.
00:03:18Choso vows that Naoya will not leave alive after attacking his brother.
00:03:23Yuta finally reaches Yuji, revealing that the opening scene was not Yuji running from
00:03:28a curse, but from Yuta himself.
00:03:30A fight breaks out, and Yuji is completely overwhelmed.
00:03:33Despite his gentle appearance, Yuji possesses an immense amount of cursed energy, far more than
00:03:39Yuji.
00:03:39Yuji tries to fight back using a knife, applying what Gojo once taught him, but Yuta easily
00:03:45breaks through his defense.
00:03:46Yuji destroys Yuta's katana with a powerful kick, and continues attacking, refusing to give up.
00:03:52Suddenly, Yuji is restrained by Rika, who appears behind him and locks him in place.
00:03:58Unable to move, Yuji watches Rika as Yuta approaches, holding his broken blade.
00:04:03Apologizing to Yuji Itadori, Yuta stabs him through the chest.
00:04:08Yuji collapses as Sukuna briefly manifests inside him, but the scene quickly shifts to
00:04:14another battlefield, where Naoya Zanen is fighting Choso.
00:04:18Naoya uses his overwhelming speed to dominate the fight, moving so fast that Choso can barely
00:04:25react.
00:04:25Every attack lands cleanly, and Naoya keeps mocking Choso, calling him slow and stubborn.
00:04:32Despite taking heavy damage, Choso refuses to fall.
00:04:36He reminds Naoya that he is the eldest brother of ten siblings, and that pride alone keeps
00:04:42him standing.
00:04:43Choso activates flowing red scale, enhancing his physical abilities and sharpening his
00:04:49perception.
00:04:50For the first time, he can properly track Naoya's movements.
00:04:54Naoya increases his speed again and stabs Choso in the stomach with a knife, causing massive
00:05:00blood loss.
00:05:01He confidently claims that Choso cannot stop the bleeding, and that using weapons makes
00:05:06things easier and cleaner.
00:05:09Naoya openly admits his hatred toward his older brothers, saying that older brothers who are
00:05:14weaker than their younger siblings deserve to die.
00:05:18Choso responds calmly, explaining the role of an older brother.
00:05:22He says an older brother exists to guide, protect, and become a model for the younger ones.
00:05:28He suggests that Naoya is practiced precisely because his own older brothers were weak, forcing him to
00:05:35surpass them.
00:05:36As the fight continues, Naoya realizes that Choso is not dying despite the blood loss.
00:05:43Choso reveals the truth about his body.
00:05:45As a death painting womb, a hybrid of cursed spirit and human, he does not die from blood loss as
00:05:52long as
00:05:53cursed energy remains.
00:05:55Choso spreads his blood across the ground, causing Naoya's feet to stick like glue.
00:06:00Taking advantage of this opening, Choso fires piercing blood directly at Naoya.
00:06:06Naoya attempts to activate his projection sorcery technique, which allows him to move at 24 frames per second.
00:06:13However, Choso counters with supernova, a technique refined over more than a century,
00:06:20detonating compressed blood from multiple directions.
00:06:23Naoya manages to block some of the attacks, but is suddenly struck from behind by Yuta Okotsu,
00:06:29who appears out of nowhere and knocks him unconscious.
00:06:33Yuta explains that Choso's blood is poisonous to humans, making Naoya's condition even worse.
00:06:39He heals Naoya using reverse curse technique and tells him to report to the higher-ups that Yuji Itadori has
00:06:46been executed.
00:06:47Meanwhile, Yuji experiences a strange vision from his childhood.
00:06:52He sees his father, Gene Itadori, and his grandfather, Wasuke.
00:06:56His grandfather warns Gene to stay away from a certain woman, or risk death.
00:07:02The memory fades as Yuji regains consciousness.
00:07:06Yuji wakes up to find Yuta sitting beside him.
00:07:09Yuta casually confirms that Yuji is alive.
00:07:12He explains that months earlier, Gojo Satoru asked Yuta to secretly watch over Yuji.
00:07:18Yuta pretended to execute Yuji to satisfy the higher-ups,
00:07:22then immediately revived him using reverse curse technique after stopping his heart.
00:07:27The execution vow remains valid, meaning the higher-ups believe Yuji is dead.
00:07:33Megumi Fushigura arrives and suggests hiding Yuji within Jujutsu High.
00:07:39Yuji refuses, blaming himself for the deaths during the Shibuya incident.
00:07:43Megumi argues that sorcerers are not heroes, but their existence still matters.
00:07:49He then reveals the true crisis.
00:07:51Kenjaku has initiated the Culling Game, a deadly ritual forcing sorcerers across Japan to kill each other.
00:07:59Megumi's sister, Tsumiki Fushigura, has been unwillingly registered as a participant.
00:08:04The rules of the Culling Game are explained.
00:08:07All players must enter within 19 days.
00:08:11Failure to participate results in the removal of curse techniques, leading to death.
00:08:16Players gain points by killing others, and those points can be used to add new rules.
00:08:22Yuji warns Yuta about Sukuna, explaining that 15 fingers have already been consumed.
00:08:27He asks Yuta to kill him immediately if Sukuna ever takes control.
00:08:32Yuta agrees without hesitation.
00:08:35Megumi says their next step is to meet Master Tengen.
00:08:39They need information on how to release Gojo Satoru from the Prison Realm, and how to stop the Culling Game.
00:08:46Yuji asks about Nobara Kugisaki, but Megumi stays silent, confirming her fate without words.
00:08:53Choso then joins the group, offering to guide them through Tengen's barriers using his connection to previous intruders.
00:09:00The group arrives at Jujutsu High, where they meet Yuki Tsukumo.
00:09:05They enter the Star Corridor, passing through multiple barriers, until they reach a vast, silent chamber.
00:09:11A strange presence fills the space, as Master Tengen finally appears before them.
00:09:18Tengen greets everyone present, but noticeably does not greet Yuki Tsukumo.
00:09:23Yuki immediately questions this, pointing out that he greeted everyone except her.
00:09:27Tengen calmly responds that this is not their first meeting, hinting in a deeper history between them.
00:09:35Yuki then directly asks Tengen why he sealed the tomb barriers earlier.
00:09:40Tengen admits that he suspected Yuki might be working alongside Kenjaku.
00:09:45When Yuki asks who Kenjaku is, Tengen explains that Kenjaku is the same sorcerer once known as Noritoshi Kamo,
00:09:53and that he is currently controlling Suguru Gato's body.
00:09:57At this point, Yuki asks the question that's been bothering him.
00:10:01Why does Tengen look so inhuman?
00:10:04Tengen laughs and tells Yuki that if he lives long enough, he might end up looking the same.
00:10:10Even though Tengen is immortal, his aging never stopped.
00:10:14He then reveals a critical detail.
00:10:16Twelve years ago, he failed to merge with the star plasma vessel.
00:10:21Because of that failure, his evolution accelerated beyond control.
00:10:25Yuki asks why another star plasma vessel wasn't chosen afterward,
00:10:30but Megumi interrupts, bringing the conversation back to the real reason they came.
00:10:35He asks two direct questions.
00:10:37What exactly is Kenjaku planning, and how can the prison realm be opened?
00:10:42Tengen agrees to explain everything, but first, sets a condition.
00:10:46He tells Yuta, Yuki, and Choso that at least two of them must stay behind to protect him.
00:10:52Everyone is shocked by this request, as they assumed Tengen was completely safe due to his immortality.
00:10:58Yuki agrees, and asks how long the protection will be required.
00:11:02With that settled, Tengen finally explains Kenjaku's true objective.
00:11:07Kenjaku's goal is to force the evolution of humanity across all of Japan.
00:11:13Megumi points out that Kenjaku could have turned everyone into sorcerers using barrier techniques,
00:11:19so why did he rely on idle transfiguration instead?
00:11:23Tengen explains that such a massive evolution requires an enormous amount of cursed energy,
00:11:29far more than Kenjaku currently possesses.
00:11:31Tengen reveals the horrifying truth.
00:11:34Kenjaku plans to merge humanity with Tengen himself.
00:11:39Yuji questions whether this is even possible,
00:11:42since Tengen was only supposed to merge with star plasma vessels.
00:11:46Tengen explains that this limitation no longer applies.
00:11:50Because he failed to merge 12 years ago,
00:11:52his form has evolved so far that he can now merge with anyone.
00:11:57Choso asks how a single being can merge with countless humans.
00:12:01Tengen answers that he has evolved to the point where his existence spreads throughout the world
00:12:07and his soul exists everywhere.
00:12:09Any human who merges with him would become something far beyond a sorcerer,
00:12:14an entirely new kind of being.
00:12:17Tengen also explains that he maintains his current form through barrier techniques,
00:12:22keeping himself under control.
00:12:24But if a merged human were to lose control,
00:12:27it could spell the end of the world.
00:12:29Tokyo would only be the beginning.
00:12:31Yuji asks the most important question.
00:12:34Why does Tengen even want this?
00:12:36But Tengen admits that even he doesn't know Kenjaku's true motivation.
00:12:41Maki then asks Tengen why Tengen simply refuses to merge.
00:12:45Tengen explains the real danger.
00:12:48He has evolved so much that he is now closer to a cursed spirit than a human.
00:12:53This makes him vulnerable to cursed spirit manipulation.
00:12:56Everyone immediately understands why Kenjaku chose Geto's body,
00:13:01because Geto's technique is exactly that.
00:13:04Tengen knows that if Kenjaku confronts him directly, he will be sealed instantly.
00:13:09This is why the tomb rejected outsiders earlier, and why Tengen now needs protection.
00:13:14Tengen also reveals that aside from himself,
00:13:18Kenjaku is the most skilled barrier technique user alive,
00:13:22and could destabilize the tomb at any time.
00:13:25But he hasn't yet, because he still lacks enough cursed energy.
00:13:29The episode then dives into Kenjaku's past.
00:13:32Long ago, Kenjaku was defeated twice by Six Eyes users.
00:13:37Realizing he could never win directly,
00:13:39he began killing Star Plasma Vessels and Six Eyes users shortly after their birth.
00:13:44However, every time Tengen's merger date arrived,
00:13:48a new Six Eyes user and a new vessel would appear.
00:13:51Kenjaku eventually changed strategies.
00:13:54Before he could obtain the prison realm,
00:13:56one unexpected person disrupted everything.
00:13:59Toji Zenon.
00:14:00Toji assassinated the Star Plasma Vessel,
00:14:03halting Tengen's merger and triggering Tengen's evolution.
00:14:07Later, a sorcerer with cursed spirit manipulation was born.
00:14:11Gato, and everything Kenjaku needed, slowly fell into place.
00:14:16Six years later, Kenjaku finally obtained the prison realm.
00:14:20Returning to the present, Megumi asks why the Culling Game exists at all.
00:14:25Tengen explains that the Culling Game's purpose is to gather cursed energy.
00:14:29As sorcerers fight and kill within the colonies,
00:14:33massive amounts of cursed energy are released,
00:14:35which Kenjaku will use for the merger.
00:14:38Tengen also clarifies something terrifying.
00:14:41Kenjaku is not the Game Master.
00:14:43Even if Kenjaku dies,
00:14:45the Culling Game will continue until all players are dead,
00:14:48either by killing each other or refusing to participate,
00:14:52which also leads to death.
00:14:54Yuji realizes what this means.
00:14:56They must participate in the Culling Game
00:14:58and accumulate points to add a rule that allows unwilling participants,
00:15:03including Megumi's sister, to escape.
00:15:05Megumi adds that freeing Gojo was essential,
00:15:08because Gojo alone could end everything.
00:15:12Yuji asks Tengen to decide who will stay behind.
00:15:15Yuki and Shoso volunteer to guard Tengen.
00:15:18Tengen then reveals the back gate of the prison realm.
00:15:21However, he explains that it cannot be used without the front gate.
00:15:25There are other methods,
00:15:27the inverted spear of heaven and black rope,
00:15:29but both were destroyed by Gojo years ago.
00:15:32Just as hope seems lost,
00:15:34Tengen reveals another option.
00:15:37Among the Culling Game players is a thousand-year-old sorcerer known as Angel,
00:15:41who may be able to open the prison realm.
00:15:44Tengen believes Angel is somewhere in eastern Tokyo.
00:15:47The episode then explains the current situation across Japan.
00:15:51Ten colonies have already formed, sealed by barriers.
00:15:55Civilians and sorcerers are trapped across different sides,
00:15:59with many ordinary people caught inside dangerous zones.
00:16:03Tengen then explains the rules of the Culling Game.
00:16:05Any awakened player must participate within 19 days.
00:16:10If they fail, their curse technique is removed, resulting in death.
00:16:14Entering a colony automatically registers someone as a player.
00:16:18Culling increases points, 5 for sorcerers and 1 for non-sorcerers.
00:16:23Players can add new rules only after reaching 100 points,
00:16:27and any new rule cannot contradict existing ones.
00:16:31Finally, if a player's points remain unchanged for 19 days, they are executed.
00:16:36Yuji realizes what this means.
00:16:38He will have to kill to survive.
00:16:41Everyone then decides their roles.
00:16:43Choso and Yuki stay behind.
00:16:45Maki decides to go to the Zenon clan to gather curse tools.
00:16:49Yuta chooses to enter the Culling Game to gather information,
00:16:52but suggests everyone enter different colonies to avoid killing each other.
00:16:56This creates a new fear.
00:16:58If Yuji turns into Tsukuna while separated, no one will be there to stop him.
00:17:03Megumi notices their concern and reassures them.
00:17:06Before leaving, Maki tells Yuji and Megumi to recruit Hakari,
00:17:10a suspended third-year student.
00:17:12When Yuji asks how strong he is, Yuta replies that Hakari is even stronger than he is.
00:17:18As they leave, Yuji thanks Choso.
00:17:20Choso tells Yuji not to die and breaks down in tears.
00:17:25The episode ends with a sudden shift to a struggling comedian named Takaba,
00:17:30performing to a nearly empty crowd.
00:17:32His boss insults him and fires him for being unfunny.
00:17:35Another man approaches Takaba and says that there are only two kinds of comedians,
00:17:40those who are funny and those who believe they are funny.
00:17:43He asks Takaba which one he is.
00:17:46Maki Zenin arriving at the Zenin household.
00:17:49Almost immediately, she runs into Naoya Zenin.
00:17:53He treats her with open contempt, mocking her appearance and belittling her worth.
00:17:58Naoya verbally abuses her, but Maki ignores him completely and continues walking toward the armory.
00:18:04She technically should not be allowed inside.
00:18:07However, Megumi Fushiguro, now acting as the clan leader, granted her permission.
00:18:12As Maki walks, she remembers how she convinced Megumi to take the role.
00:18:17He initially refused, but Maki explained that becoming clan head would give them access to vital intel in clan assets.
00:18:24Eventually, Megumi agreed, even saying that Maki would be far more suited for leadership than he was.
00:18:30Maki, however, knew the truth.
00:18:33She would never receive the clan's support.
00:18:35More than that, she still couldn't create a place where her sister Mai truly belonged.
00:18:41When Maki enters the armory, something feels wrong.
00:18:44Before the scene reveals what she sees, the story flashes back to a conversation between Jinichi Zenin and Naoya Zenin.
00:18:52Jinichi makes it clear that he does not want Megumi Fushiguro as the clan leader.
00:18:57To stop this, he devises a brutal plan.
00:19:00They will kill Megumi, Maki, and Mai.
00:19:03By executing all three, they can frame it as punishment for rebellion, making the plan more convincing to the higher
00:19:10-ups.
00:19:10Back in the present, the truth is revealed.
00:19:13Mai is lying collapsed on the floor of the armory, badly wounded.
00:19:17Standing before her is their father, Ogi Zenin, who intends to kill both of his daughters.
00:19:23Maki tries to fight back.
00:19:24During the struggle, she breaks Ogi's sword and rushes in, believing she has gained the upper hand.
00:19:30Instead, Ogi calmly slashes her twice, proving that breaking his blade does not stop his technique.
00:19:37As he drags Maki and Mai away, Ogi explains that his strength lies not in swordsmanship, but in being a
00:19:45sorcerer.
00:19:45He blames both girls for his failure to become clan head and declares them his greatest shame.
00:19:51He throws them into an empty training room filled with cursed spirits.
00:19:55It is a place he uses for punishment.
00:19:58Once he leaves, the curses will devour them.
00:20:00Barely conscious, Mai gathers what little strength she has left and gently cups Maki's face.
00:20:06She activates her curse technique.
00:20:08Suddenly, Maki finds herself standing on a beach beside Mai.
00:20:13Mai explains the truth about twins in the Jujutsu world.
00:20:17Twins are treated as a single being.
00:20:19Because of this, neither of them can ever be complete.
00:20:22As long as they both exist, they will always be half-baked.
00:20:26Maki doesn't understand and desperately begs Mai to come back as her sister slowly walks toward the ocean.
00:20:32Mai tells her she will leave her one final gift.
00:20:35In exchange, she asks for just one thing.
00:20:39That Maki destroys everything.
00:20:41Mai cries and briefly appears as her younger self before saying her final goodbye.
00:20:47Maki awakens back in the armory.
00:20:49A newly created sword rests in her hand.
00:20:52Mai is dead beside her.
00:20:54Cursed spirits approach, but they no longer matter.
00:20:57With Mai's death, Maki's heavenly restriction has reached its full potential.
00:21:02She has no cursed energy left, only overwhelming physical power.
00:21:07She remembers her promise.
00:21:09Ogi Zanen senses something terrifying.
00:21:11A presence he once feared.
00:21:13Toji Zanen.
00:21:15He calls Maki a failure and prepares to fight her, but he doesn't even finish speaking.
00:21:20Maki strikes once, slicing his head open, and walks out of the armory without looking back.
00:21:26An alarm sounds throughout the Zanen estate.
00:21:29The Kukuru unit is deployed to stop her.
00:21:31They are elite fighters trained in pure physical combat, and Maki was once part of their ranks.
00:21:38Their leader, Nobuaki, underestimates her, failing to recognize the danger.
00:21:42When the soldiers engage Maki, the screen shifts to black and white.
00:21:47What follows is a brutal slaughter, echoing the famous Crazy 88 scene from Kill Bill.
00:21:53One by one, Maki cuts them down, leaving the room drenched in blood.
00:21:57Nobuaki opens the door and freezes in shock, unable to comprehend what he's seeing.
00:22:03Suddenly, massive stone hands slam into Maki.
00:22:07This is Chojudo's cursed technique.
00:22:09A member of the Hei unit, the Zanen clan's strongest sorcerers, Maki escapes unharmed.
00:22:15She kills both Nobuaki and Chojudo.
00:22:18Another Hei member attempts to restrain her, while Jinichi Zenin rains down a barrage of attacks.
00:22:24Still, Maki survives effortlessly and kills them all.
00:22:28The only one left is Naoya Zenin.
00:22:31Naoya still underestimates her, remembering how terrifying Toji once was, and convincing himself that Maki is only an imitation.
00:22:39He attacks at incredible speed, overwhelming her at first.
00:22:43If he keeps moving, his speed will only increase, just as it did in his fight with Chojudo.
00:22:48Maki waits.
00:22:49When she gets her chance, she blocks his path, forcing him into a straight line.
00:22:54Naoya charges forward, confident she cannot stop him.
00:22:58But Maki has already understood his technique.
00:23:01As he closes in, she strikes, smashing his head and pulverizing part of his skull.
00:23:06Afterward, Maki searches for her mother and asks her why she once told her to come back.
00:23:11She receives no answer.
00:23:13She slashes her and leaves.
00:23:15Naoya later staggers back to the house, believing he survived.
00:23:19Behind him stands Maki's mother, bleeding, smiling.
00:23:23In her final moments, she collapses onto Naoya, killing him, and says she is glad she gave birth to her
00:23:29daughters.
00:23:30Momo Nishimuya arrives at the Zanen estate as Maki walks, carrying Mai's body on her shoulders.
00:23:36Momo breaks down in tears and asks Maki what she plans to do next.
00:23:41The episode ends there.
00:23:42Episode 5 begins by focusing on Masamichi Yaga, the principle of Tokyo Jujutsu High, and the true nature of Panda.
00:23:50We see Yaga being questioned by the higher-ups about Panda's existence.
00:23:54They explain that Panda is not an ordinary cursed puppet.
00:23:58Unlike normal puppets that simply follow commands, Panda acts independently, consumes cursed energy on his own, and possesses a core
00:24:07that cannot be removed.
00:24:08This makes Panda a completely self-sustaining cursed corpse.
00:24:12Because of this discovery, the higher-ups label Yaga as a special-grade threat.
00:24:17They accuse him of having the ability to create an army of autonomous cursed corpses and place him under arrest.
00:24:24Yaga is imprisoned, where Gakuganji confronts him and repeatedly asks if he truly knows the secret behind creating beings like
00:24:32Panda.
00:24:32Yaga refuses to answer.
00:24:34The episode then cuts to Yaga inside the forest of cursed puppets he once created.
00:24:39A yellow puppet named Takeru speaks with him, worried about Yaga's condition.
00:24:44Yaga gently reassures him and apologizes, saying he may not return for a long time.
00:24:50He tells Takeru that Master Tengen will protect the forest, and that everything will be fine, even without him.
00:24:56Meanwhile, Panda is captured and tied up.
00:24:59Atsuya Kusakabe secretly cuts Panda free and tells him the truth.
00:25:04Panda was bait, used to force Yaga out.
00:25:07Kusakabe tells Panda to escape and not tell anyone.
00:25:10The scene shifts again to Yaga being escorted outside.
00:25:14Kusakabe appears with his sister, who is confined to a wheelchair.
00:25:18Takeru is revealed to be a cursed corpse, created using the soul information of Kusakabe's deceased nephew.
00:25:25When Kusakabe's sister sees Takeru, she emotionally recognizes him as her child.
00:25:31Yaga apologizes for using the boy's soul, but Kusakabe accepts it, understanding that without Takeru his sister could not survive.
00:25:39However, Yaga explains that cursed corpses like Takeru cannot leave the forest or exist in society.
00:25:46As Yaga continues walking, Gakuganji confronts him on an empty street.
00:25:52Gakuganji declares that Yaga has only one way to escape, death, and demands the secret of creating cursed corpses.
00:26:00Yaga prepares to fight, knowing Gojo is gone and no one can protect him.
00:26:05The battle is skipped, and the aftermath is shown.
00:26:09Yaga lies mortally wounded on the ground.
00:26:12Gakuganji stands over him.
00:26:14With his final strength, Yaga reveals the truth.
00:26:18To create a self-sustaining cursed corpse, three compatible souls must be placed inside a single core, constantly observing each
00:26:27other.
00:26:28Only then does cursed energy naturally form, a process that takes three months.
00:26:33When Gakuganji asks why Yaga is telling him this now, Yaga answers that this knowledge is not a gift, it
00:26:40is a curse.
00:26:41Yaga dies.
00:26:43Panda arrives moments later.
00:26:44Gakuganji prepares to fight him, but Panda ignores him completely.
00:26:48Panda kneels beside Yaga's body and speaks calmly, saying he doesn't understand hatred or revenge.
00:26:55He says Gakuganji was nothing more than a knife used by someone else.
00:27:00Then, Panda says one final thing.
00:27:02Pandas can cry too, and he breaks down in tears.
00:27:06The opening theme plays.
00:27:07After this emotional turning point, the episode shifts to Yuji Itadori and Megumi Fushigura.
00:27:13They recall Master Tengen's instructions about Kinji Hakari, a suspended third-year student running an underground fight club.
00:27:21Hakari organizes illegal battles between curse users while civilians gamble and watch, which directly violates jujitsu laws.
00:27:30Megumi explains that Hakari hates the higher-ups and will avoid anyone connected to jujitsu high.
00:27:36Yuji and Megumi arrive at a multi-story parking structure where the fights are held.
00:27:41Guards stop them and threaten to beat them if they don't leave.
00:27:44Megumi claims they need money and want to join the fights.
00:27:47When questioned about who told them about the club, Megumi lies and says the person is already dead, earning them
00:27:53a spot.
00:27:54However, the guards decide that Yuji will be the one fighting.
00:27:57Yuji accepts without hesitation.
00:27:59Yuji is briefed on the rules.
00:28:01No running away from the crowd's view and no visible curse techniques, since civilians can't see curses.
00:28:07Yuji understands that to meet Hakari, he needs to put on a convincing show.
00:28:12The fighters enter the arena, and Yuji's opponent is revealed to be Panda.
00:28:16The fight begins in front of cheering civilians in live cameras.
00:28:20Yuji and Panda secretly coordinate, pretending to fight while barely touching each other.
00:28:25Panda exaggerates every hit, flying across the arena to excite the audience.
00:28:30Yuji is declared the winner.
00:28:32Watching from above, Hakari finally takes interest.
00:28:35He orders his men to bring Yuji to him, and tells them to keep an eye on the other boy,
00:28:40Megumi.
00:28:41Hakari sends Kirara Hoshi, his partner and a third-year student, to intercept Megumi.
00:28:47Later, Panda meets Megumi and explains why he couldn't reach Hakari.
00:28:51Panda says he often felt his approach to the control room was meant with resistance, similar to Gojo's Infinity.
00:28:58He suspects Kirara's cursed technique is responsible.
00:29:01Megumi memorizes the layout of guards and cameras, and decides they'll need Yuji's help to bypass Kirara's ability.
00:29:08Finally, Kirara escorts Yuji to the control room.
00:29:11Inside, Kinji Hakari greets Yuji and begins talking about money, gambling, and ambition.
00:29:17He explains his philosophy that life itself is a gamble, driven by passion, which he calls heat.
00:29:24He believes people only move forward through risk, obsession, and desire to win.
00:29:30He declares his goal, to control the nation's heat through his fight clubs, upturn jiu-jitsu regulations, and reshape the
00:29:37system while the higher-ups are weakened.
00:29:39The episode ends with Yuji listening silently as Hakari reveals his true ambitions.
00:29:45The episode opens in a parking area near the underground tournament facility.
00:29:49Megumi Fushiguro silently moves through the area, taking down Hakari's guards one by one without drawing attention.
00:29:57He knocks them out efficiently, clearing the path toward the building.
00:30:00At the same time, Panda is already inside, working his way upward and securing the upper floors.
00:30:05After clearing the lower levels, Panda proceeds through the emergency staircase toward the rooftop.
00:30:10Once both Panda and Megumi reach the rooftop, they come face-to-face with Kirara Hoshi.
00:30:16Kirara immediately notices that Panda has brought someone with him.
00:30:19When Kirara sees Megumi, he instantly recognizes him as the sorcerer who came with Yuji earlier.
00:30:25Kirara quickly realizes that Hakari might be in danger.
00:30:29He takes out his phone and attempts to call Hakari to warn him about the intruders.
00:30:33Before he can finish, Megumi summons Divine Dog and sends it towards Kirara.
00:30:38However, the moment Divine Dog tries to touch him, it is violently repelled and pulled back in the opposite direction,
00:30:45crashing into Megumi instead.
00:30:47Both Megumi and Panda are shocked, unable to understand what just happened.
00:30:51Taking advantage of the confusion, Kirara runs toward the monitor room.
00:30:55Panda chases after him, but no matter how hard he tries, he cannot get any closer.
00:31:00It feels as if he is running on a treadmill, unable to close the distance.
00:31:04Panda shouts that they are not enemies and that they only want to talk to Hakari, but Kirara refuses to
00:31:10believe him.
00:31:10Megumi sends Divine Dog again, positioning it in front of the monitor room door.
00:31:15This time, something even stranger happens.
00:31:17Instead of the dog moving freely, Megumi himself is suddenly pulled toward Divine Dog, as if an invisible force is
00:31:25linking them.
00:31:26Megumi realizes that he cannot approach Kirara and cannot separate himself from his Shikigami either.
00:31:32Megumi tries once more to reason with Kirara.
00:31:35He explains that they are not acting on behalf of Jujutsu High.
00:31:38He asks if Kirara has seen the news about Tokyo.
00:31:41The barriers appearing across the city are not accidents, but part of a planned Jujutsu terrorist attack, unlike anything seen
00:31:48before.
00:31:49Because of this, they need Hakari's help.
00:31:51Kirara responds angrily, saying that Jujutsu High was the one that cast Hakari aside, and now they are only reaching
00:31:58out because they are desperate.
00:31:59Megumi admits that he doesn't know the full details of what happened between Hakari and the higher-ups, but he
00:32:05insists that it no longer matters.
00:32:07Through this conversation, it is revealed why Hakari left Jujutsu High.
00:32:12His cursed technique is highly unconventional and unpredictable, relying heavily on risk and luck.
00:32:17The conservative higher-ups feared techniques they could not control, and because Hakari's power did not fit their rigid ideology,
00:32:25he was expelled.
00:32:25Kirara then questions why they would need Hakari's help when they have Satoru Gojo.
00:32:30Megumi answers directly, Gojo has been sealed.
00:32:33Because of that, they have already lost.
00:32:36Kirara reacts with disbelief.
00:32:37The idea that Gojo's Satoru could be sealed is impossible to accept, and Megumi realizes that no ordinary sorcerer would
00:32:45believe such a claim.
00:32:46With no other option left, Megumi prepares to fight.
00:32:49He summons Rabbit Escape, flooding the area with Shikigami.
00:32:53As the fight continues, Megumi carefully observes how Kirara's cursed technique works, he notices star-like markings, and how certain
00:33:01people or objects are pushed away or pulled closer.
00:33:04Through observation and deduction, Megumi understands that Kirara's cursed technique marks cursed energy and controls movement through attraction and repulsion.
00:33:13By analyzing the behavior of his Shikigami and the surrounding cursed energy, Megumi eventually figures out how the technique functions
00:33:21and successfully breaks through it.
00:33:23Defeated, Kirara asks Megumi if he is really a first-year student.
00:33:27Megumi steps forward, lowers his head, and begs him to listen.
00:33:31He says they are out of time and asks Kirara to let them speak with Hakari.
00:33:35Kirara finally agrees.
00:33:37Suddenly, a loud explosion shatters the monitor room door.
00:33:40Yuji Itadori bursts out.
00:33:43Megumi is shocked, but Yuji immediately tells Megumi and Panda to not interfere.
00:33:48Kinji Hakari steps out behind him and confronts Yuji directly.
00:33:52Hakari accuses Yuji of underestimating him and throws a powerful punch straight at Yuji's face.
00:33:57Yuji does not dodge.
00:33:59He takes the hit head-on, falls, and then stands back up.
00:34:03Hakari continues attacking, growing more irritated as Yuji refuses to dodge or fight back.
00:34:08Inside his mind, Yuji thinks that compared to the Shibuya incident, this pain is nothing.
00:34:14All he needs to do is earn Hakari's trust, no matter how badly he is beaten.
00:34:18Hakari tells Yuji that as long as he can keep standing, he will listen.
00:34:22Kirara tries to explain that Yuji and the others are not from Jujutsu High and genuinely need Hakari's help.
00:34:29Hakari angrily responds that he is already listening and continues beating Yuji mercilessly.
00:34:34Hakari eventually uses cursed energy in his punch, sending Yuji flying and leaving him motionless on the ground.
00:34:40Everyone believes Yuji is finished.
00:34:42Hakari tells Panda and Megumi to take Yuji and leave, never to return.
00:34:47At that moment, Yuji stands up again behind Hakari.
00:34:50Shocked, Hakari asks what Yuji is made of.
00:34:53Yuji repeats his answer.
00:34:54He says he is a cog.
00:34:56His role is simply to exercise curses.
00:34:58No matter how many times Hakari beats him down, he will keep standing until Hakari agrees to help.
00:35:05Yuji's determination finally reaches Hakari.
00:35:07He calms down and agrees to hear them out.
00:35:10He says he is willing to make a deal.
00:35:12Megumi is stunned that Hakari agreed so easily.
00:35:14Hirata explains that even though Hakari hates the higher-ups, he has never refused to help fellow sorcerers.
00:35:20Just then, Kogane appears and announces that a new rule has been added to the culling game.
00:35:25Rule number 9 allows players to see other players' names, points, number of rules added, and current colony.
00:35:32The rule required 100 points to add.
00:35:35The player who added the rule is revealed to be Hajime Kashima.
00:35:38It is shown that he has already accumulated 200 points by killing many sorcerers.
00:35:43Kashima states that he wants information about Sukuna, which is why he added the rule.
00:35:48With that revelation, the episode comes to an end.
00:35:50The episode opens inside one of the culling game barriers, where Kenjaku stands beside a confused civilian who has just
00:35:58woken up.
00:35:58Kenjaku calmly explains that this location was deliberately chosen as the center of the barrier, due to its history as
00:36:05an execution ground.
00:36:06The barrier spans approximately 5 to 6 kilometers in radius.
00:36:10He reveals that while he pushed his technique to its limits to create the barrier, he could not impose completely
00:36:15unreasonable conditions.
00:36:17As a result, civilians who were already inside when the barrier was activated are allowed to leave once.
00:36:23He offers the man the option of waking up outside the barrier if he wishes.
00:36:27Elsewhere, inside another colony, Sasaki and Iguchi, from Yuji's former occult club, regain consciousness and realize they are trapped inside
00:36:35the Sendai barrier.
00:36:36They recall seeing a mysterious long-haired man in robes in what felt like a shared dream, subtly reinforcing Kenjaku's
00:36:44manipulation.
00:36:45The scene shifts back to Yuji Tateri, Megumi Fushigura, Panda, and Kinji Hakari as they discuss entering the culling game.
00:36:52Panda informs Hakari that Satoru Gojo has been sealed, and Principal Yaga has been executed.
00:36:58Hakari reacts with shock, but ultimately agrees to cooperate.
00:37:02However, he makes it clear that this is a deal.
00:37:04Once the culling game ends, he expects help reforming Jujutsu Society's regulations.
00:37:09Megumi reveals that he has become the head of the Zenin clan, which surprises Hakari,
00:37:15though narration immediately informs the audience that the Zenin clan was annihilated shortly after.
00:37:20Suddenly, Kogane announces a new rule has been added to the culling game.
00:37:24Rule 9 allows players to view information about other players, including their names, current points,
00:37:30the number of rules they have added, and which colony they are located in.
00:37:34This dramatically changes the strategy, as players can now specifically target high-point individuals instead of fighting blindly.
00:37:41The group realizes that someone has already accumulated 200 points, meaning they have likely killed at least 40 players.
00:37:48Megumi instructs Kogane to display players with 100 points or more.
00:37:53Two names stand out, Hajime Kashimo and Hiromi Higuruma.
00:37:57Megumi proposes a new plan.
00:37:58Instead of killing to accumulate points themselves, they will confront a player who already has over 100 points and persuade
00:38:06them to add beneficial rules.
00:38:07Their goal is to exploit Rule 8, which states that if a player's points do not change within 19 days,
00:38:14their curse technique will be confiscated and they will die.
00:38:17They want to add a rule allowing players to transfer points to each other, preventing unnecessary deaths.
00:38:22After that, they hope to add another rule permitting players to spend points to withdraw from the culling game entirely.
00:38:29They acknowledge the system might reject a rule that directly undermines the game's purpose, so they consider possible conditions that
00:38:36could make it acceptable.
00:38:37In addition to this plan, they must also locate Angel, the sorcerer capable of unsealing the prison realm.
00:38:43The team splits. Akari and Ponda will enter Tokyo No. 2 colony, while Yuji and Megumi will enter Tokyo No.
00:38:501 colony.
00:38:51Kirara remains outside to maintain communication, since phones do not function inside the barriers.
00:38:57The date is November 12th at noon, and they note that Samiki has only 7 days and 12 hours left
00:39:03before she is forced to participate in the game.
00:39:05Yuji and Megumi step into Tokyo No. 1 barrier and are immediately recognized as official players.
00:39:11Upon entry, they are randomly teleported to separate locations within the colony, a barrier-specific condition not explicitly listed in
00:39:19the game's rules.
00:39:20Almost instantly, Yuji is attacked by two players lying in wait for newcomers.
00:39:24One uses a helicopter-like curse technique with spinning blades, while the other propels herself using rocket-like hair.
00:39:31They target Yuji aggressively, intending to kill him quickly and collect points.
00:39:35Yuji analyzes their techniques mid-fight, noticing that their power weakens at certain ranges.
00:39:41He counters their attacks, breaks through their offense, and defeats them with close-quarters combat.
00:39:46After the fight, a man named Rin Amai calls out to Yuji, recognizing him from middle school and referring to
00:39:52his old nickname.
00:39:53Amai explains that life inside the colony has become pure survival. Players either fight or are hunted.
00:39:59He indicates that powerful players tend to gather in resource-rich or strategically valuable areas of the city, such as
00:40:06heavily damaged districts.
00:40:07Meanwhile, Megumi encounters a woman named Remy, who appears frightened and injured.
00:40:12She attempts to manipulate Megumi into protecting her, asking him to become her knight.
00:40:17Megumi remains cautious and focused on gathering information.
00:40:20When he asks about Hiramuma, Remy confirms that Hiramuma has accumulated 100 points and is known within the colony.
00:40:27She provides vague directions toward areas where stronger players are likely concentrated.
00:40:32Megumi remains wary, aware that deception is common in this environment.
00:40:35As the episode closes, both Yuji and Megumi move deeper into Tokyo No. 1 colony, separated by distance but pursuing
00:40:43the same objective.
00:40:44To locate Hiramuma Hiramuma, secure access to his points, and implement new rules that could change the fate of everyone
00:40:51trapped in the culling game.
00:40:52The episode opens in March 2016 in Morioka City, Iwate Prefecture.
00:40:58A statistic appears on screen stating that Japan's criminal conviction rate is 99.9%.
00:41:04A young man named Keita Oe is suddenly confronted by police officers and arrested on suspicion of robbery and murder.
00:41:12He panics and resists.
00:41:13Worried about what will happen to the cat he secretly keeps in his residence, since pets are not allowed where
00:41:18he lives.
00:41:19The case against him seems overwhelming.
00:41:21A mother and daughter were found stabbed to death.
00:41:24Oe fled when approached by police, and a knife stained with the victim's blood was discovered in his home.
00:41:30DNA testing links the blood on the knife to the victims.
00:41:33Despite this, Oe insists he is innocent and claims the knife does not belong to him.
00:41:38The case is taken up by defense attorney Hiromi Higuruma.
00:41:41Unlike many lawyers who avoid difficult cases, Hiromi Higuruma chooses to defend Oe because he believes there are inconsistencies in
00:41:48the investigation.
00:41:49He questions the fairness of Oe's interrogation, and points out that trauma and pressure may have influenced his behavior.
00:41:56Hiromi Higuruma investigates the non-profit organization where Oe works as a live-in employee.
00:42:02Oe receives little pay, mostly allowances and occasional meals, and must pay rent to the facility.
00:42:07Many residents there have prior criminal records, and the organization itself has suspicious financial ties connected to disaster relief funds.
00:42:16Hiromi Higuruma digs deeper into the non-profit's activities, tax records, and the backgrounds of its residents, determined to uncover
00:42:22the truth.
00:42:23A flashback reveals an earlier case that shaped Hiromi Higuruma's outlook.
00:42:27He once defended a 19-year-old accused of drunk driving after being pressured by co-workers to drink and
00:42:33then drive.
00:42:34The co-workers coordinated their testimonies to protect themselves.
00:42:37Despite Hiromi Higuruma's efforts, the young man was convicted, and in his anger, he accused Hiromi Higuruma of giving him
00:42:43false hope.
00:42:44This failure left Hiromi Higuruma painfully aware of the limits of good intentions within a flawed legal system.
00:42:50Returning to Oe's case, the initial trial ends with a not guilty verdict.
00:42:54The courtroom reacts in shock.
00:42:56However, the prosecution files an appeal.
00:42:58In the second trial, without presenting any meaningful new evidence, the higher court overturns the acquittal and sentences Oe to
00:43:05life imprisonment.
00:43:07The court dismisses doubts about missing individuals connected to the non-profit and criticizes the previous investigation's conclusions.
00:43:14Hiromi Higuruma reflects on how difficult it is for cases to be properly reviewed at the highest levels, as most
00:43:20appeals are rejected without thorough reconsideration.
00:43:23Watching the system reverse what he believed was justice, something inside him breaks.
00:43:27Public reaction is harsh, with headlines declaring justice meaningless.
00:43:32Hiruguma becomes disillusioned, realizing that the legal system he trusted does not guarantee fairness.
00:43:37The story shifts to the present during the culling game.
00:43:40Yuji Itadori and Megumi Fushiguro are searching for Hiruguma, who has accumulated 100 points.
00:43:46Confusing reports suggest Hiruguma has been seen in both Shinjuku and Ikebukuro, leading Yuji and Megumi to move separately toward
00:43:54different locations.
00:43:55Yuji encounters a group of delinquents harassing a younger boy.
00:43:58Irritated by their behavior, he steps in and tells them to stop.
00:44:02Afterward, he continues toward the location where he believes Hiruguma is staying.
00:44:06He learns that the route through Ikebukuro may increase the chance of encountering other players, but proceeds anyway, determined to
00:44:13reach Hiruguma.
00:44:14Meanwhile, Megumi follows information given to him by a girl named Remy, believing she is guiding him to Hiruguma.
00:44:19Instead, he walks into a trap. Reggie's star is waiting there.
00:44:23Fully aware that Remy misled Megumi, Reggie attempts to recruit Megumi to his side, casually explaining that players must adapt
00:44:30within the culling game's structure.
00:44:32Megumi refuses to engage in conversation and prepares to fight, summoning Divine Dog without hesitation.
00:44:39Yuji eventually arrives at a theater that Hiruguma is using as a base.
00:44:43Inside, he finds Hiruguma sitting fully clothed in a bathtub, calm and detached.
00:44:48Yuji begins speaking directly to him.
00:44:50He explains that Hiruguma has reached 100 points and asks him to use those points to add a rule to
00:44:56the culling game.
00:44:57A rule that would allow players to transfer points freely and reduce forced killing.
00:45:02Yuji emphasizes that Hiruguma is not a reincarnated ancient sorcerer, but a modern human whose curse technique awakened recently, suggesting
00:45:11that he can still be reasoned with.
00:45:12If Hiruguma listens quietly, he questions whether the culling game, despite its brutality, might actually be more honest than the
00:45:19legal system he once served.
00:45:21Unlike the courts, the game follows strict, unchanging rules.
00:45:25There are no hidden appeals or sudden reversals.
00:45:27For someone who watched justice overturned without cause, the clarity of the culling game's structure feels consistent.
00:45:34Yuji insists that changing the rules could save lives and reduce unnecessary bloodshed.
00:45:39However, Hiruguma does not agree.
00:45:41The conversation grows tense as their opposing beliefs become clear.
00:45:45Yuji believes the system should be changed to protect people.
00:45:48Hiruguma, disillusioned by his past, stands firm in his view of order and consequence within the game.
00:45:54The episode ends with both confrontations set.
00:45:57Yuji facing Hiruguma in a battle of ideals, and Megumi standing against Reggie after being lured into a trap.
00:46:03The episode begins with Yuji Itadori rushing toward Hiromi Higuruma, hoping to defeat him before he can activate his domain
00:46:11expansion.
00:46:12However, just as Yuji is about to land a punch, the domain activates and instantly stops him.
00:46:18Inside the domain, violence is completely prohibited.
00:46:21Both Yuji and Higuruma are transported into a courtroom-like setting, where they stand in separate positions, like participants in
00:46:29a trial.
00:46:30Higuruma's Shigami, Judge Man, appears and begins the proceedings.
00:46:34Judge Man announces the case and states that Yuji must choose one of three options.
00:46:40Plead guilty, plead innocent, or remain silent.
00:46:43If Yuji decides to speak, he must present his defense.
00:46:47After that, Higuruma will reveal the evidence, argue his side of the case, and Judge Man will deliver the verdict.
00:46:53Higuruma explains that his domain resembles techniques used by ancient sorcerers.
00:46:58Instead of guaranteeing the opponent's death like many modern domains, it simply ensures that his technique will hit.
00:47:05Because of this simpler structure, Higuruma is able to use such a powerful ability, despite being relatively new as a
00:47:12sorcerer.
00:47:13The fight begins when Judge Man accuses Yuji of entering a pachinko parlor while he was still a minor.
00:47:19Yuji quickly starts thinking about how to respond.
00:47:22After considering his options, he decides to admit that he entered the building, but claims that he only went inside
00:47:28to use the restroom.
00:47:30Based on that explanation, he argues that he should be considered innocent.
00:47:34However, the evidence quickly disproves his claim.
00:47:37Higuruma reveals a photo showing Yuji withdrawing money from a nearby machine close to the pachinko parlor.
00:47:43Since Yuji already admitted that he entered the building, the evidence makes his explanation appear dishonest.
00:47:50Because of this contradiction, Judge Man delivers the verdict and declares Yuji guilty.
00:47:55As punishment, Judge Man confiscates something from Yuji.
00:47:58Immediately after the verdict, the courtroom disappears, and the battle resumes.
00:48:03Higuruma attacks with his large judge's gavel, changing its shape and size until it resembles a heavy club.
00:48:10With a powerful swing, he sends Yuji flying across the area.
00:48:14It is then that Yuji realizes he can no longer control his cursed energy.
00:48:18The narration explains Higuruma's extraordinary talent as a sorcerer.
00:48:22Within only 12 days of awakening his abilities, he had already reached the level of a grade 1 sorcerer and
00:48:29mastered several complex aspects of cursed energy.
00:48:32Because of his strength, he defeated many other players in the culling game and collected over 100 points.
00:48:38The fight continues, with both of them exchanging blows.
00:48:41Despite losing his cursed energy, Yuji keeps fighting using only his physical strength and durability.
00:48:47Even so, Higuruma maintains the advantage as Yuji struggles to land a successful hit while constantly dodging the lawyer's attacks.
00:48:55Higuruma also notices something unusual.
00:48:58The confiscation penalty is normally supposed to remove a sorcerer's cursed technique, not their cursed energy entirely.
00:49:05Even with that disadvantage, Yuji is still able to keep fighting.
00:49:09This greatly impresses Higuruma, who realizes just how resilient Yuji really is.
00:49:14As the battle intensifies, Yuji finally attempts to counterattack, but Higuruma strikes him again with the gavel.
00:49:21Instead of simply knocking him away, Higuruma tries to crush him into the ground with the heavy weapon.
00:49:27Penned down and running out of options, Yuji desperately searches for a strategy.
00:49:32At the last moment, he suddenly remembers something about the trial rules.
00:49:36With no other choice left, Yuji demands a retrial.
00:49:39Instantly, both fighters are teleported back into the courtroom again.
00:49:43This time, however, the trial moves extremely quickly.
00:49:47Judge Man immediately announces a new accusation, stating that Yuji Itadori committed mass murder during the Shiguya incident.
00:49:55Without hesitation, Yuji admits that he is guilty.
00:49:58The moment he confesses, Judge Man delivers the verdict once again.
00:50:03Yuji is declared guilty, and his cursed energy is confiscated again.
00:50:08This time, however, the punishment is far severe.
00:50:11Higuruma receives a special weapon known as the executioner's sword.
00:50:16The executioner's sword has a terrifying ability.
00:50:19Anyone who is touched by it will die instantly.
00:50:23Higuruma moves forward to attack Yuji with the deadly weapon, but he hesitates.
00:50:28Although he often believes that people are weak and ugly, Yuji's willingness to accept guilt affects him deeply.
00:50:35The evidence provided by Judge Man had already shown that during the Shibuya incident, Yuji's body was being controlled by
00:50:43Ryoman Sukuna.
00:50:45Higuruma knows that Yuji was not actually responsible for the massacre.
00:50:49Just as both of them prepare to strike each other, Higuruma suddenly cancels his technique and allows Yuji's attack to
00:50:57hit him.
00:50:58Then, Higuruma explains the evidence to Yuji and asks why he confessed to the crime when he knew it was
00:51:04Sukuna who committed it.
00:51:06From a legal perspective, Yuji should not be held responsible.
00:51:09However, Yuji disagrees.
00:51:11He says that it is still his fault because he was too weak to stop Sukuna.
00:51:17Hearing this answer changes Higuruma's decision.
00:51:20He agrees to help Yuji and decides to use his points to add a new rule to the culling game.
00:51:26The new rule allows players to transfer their points to other players.
00:51:30After the rule is approved, Higuruma immediately transfers one point to Yuji.
00:51:35With that done, Higuruma prepares to leave.
00:51:38Yuji asks what he plans to do next and suggests that he could help them if he wants.
00:51:44But Higuruma declines, saying that staying around Yuji would only make him feel worse about himself and everything he has
00:51:50done.
00:51:51With those words, Higuruma walks away, bringing the episode to an end.
00:51:56The episode begins with Reggie Starr explaining his understanding of the culling game to Megumi Fushiguro.
00:52:03He states that Kenjaku will only take action once only the strongest players remain alive,
00:52:09meaning everything happening now is part of a larger plan to filter out the weak.
00:52:14Reggie also mentions that he is gathering strong allies and preparing for what is coming next.
00:52:19Megumi refuses to accept this and instead demands that Reggie surrender his points.
00:52:24In response, Reggie calls one of his allies, Shizuru, and orders him to attack.
00:52:28Shizuru immediately moves in, but Megumi reacts quickly, throwing him out of the building without hesitation.
00:52:35At the same time, Megumi summons Nu to continue attacking him from outside.
00:52:39He also sends his divine dog to attack Reggie, but the Shikigami is quickly defeated.
00:52:44Suddenly, an eye falls from above and explodes near Megumi.
00:52:48This attack comes from another ally, Iori, who has the ability to turn parts of his body into explosives.
00:52:54Megumi narrowly avoids the blast, but the situation becomes even more complicated when Remi tries to restrain him.
00:53:01Despite her presence, Iori launches another attack, showing no concern for her safety.
00:53:06Even after witnessing this, Remi continues to side with Reggie.
00:53:10When Megumi confronts her, she asks him to promise that he will protect her, just like Reggie did.
00:53:14Before anything else can happen, Shizuru reappears, but the moment is interrupted by Kogane, announcing the addition of a new
00:53:21rule to the game.
00:53:22This announcement triggers a shift in Megumi's mindset.
00:53:25He becomes more aggressive and begins fighting with the clear intention to kill.
00:53:30Using Nu and Max Elephant together, Megumi forces Shizuru out of the building once again, but this time, he follows
00:53:37him outside.
00:53:38As they fall to the street below, Megumi attacks and slashes Shizuru's head.
00:53:43At this point, Megumi is no longer concerned about collecting points and is focused entirely on survival.
00:53:49However, the battle is far from over, as both Reggie and Iori move in to kill him.
00:53:54Iori launches another attack using his exploding teeth, but at that moment, Fumihiko Takaba suddenly appears and shields Megumi with
00:54:02his own body.
00:54:03Takaba protests that fighting two against one is unfair, and claims that the attack did no damage even though he
00:54:10is visibly injured.
00:54:11His behavior surprises both his enemies and Megumi.
00:54:14Megumi accepts Takaba's help, and Takaba immediately counterattacks.
00:54:18He delivers a flying kick that sends Iori crashing into a wall, then continues to deflect his attacks using a
00:54:25paper fan before slamming him into another wall.
00:54:28This gives Megumi an opening to focus on Reggie, who attempts to escape as Nu chases him.
00:54:33Megumi uses Max Elephant to release a large amount of water, flooding the street.
00:54:38During this, Reggie reveals more of his ability by using a receipt to materialize a surfboard, allowing him to move
00:54:44across the water and avoid the attack.
00:54:47He continues using various receipts to create objects and launch attacks, but none of them manage to defeat Megumi.
00:54:53When the fighting briefly pauses, Reggie demonstrates the true extent of his technique by using a receipt for a spa,
00:55:00instantly refreshing his body.
00:55:02While Megumi remains injured and exhausted, realizing the disadvantage, Megumi retreats into a nearby gymnasium, planning to use the enclosed
00:55:10space to his advantage.
00:55:11However, Reggie is already prepared and launches another assault.
00:55:15Two trucks suddenly crash into the building, nearly crushing Megumi.
00:55:19Immediately after, a rain of flowerpots falls on him, followed by a barrage of furniture and other objects.
00:55:25Under constant pressure, Megumi struggles to find an opening.
00:55:28As Reggie becomes convinced that he has already won, Megumi reveals that he has always had difficulty dealing with barrier
00:55:35techniques, which is why he intentionally chose a closed space.
00:55:39At that moment, Reggie realizes what Megumi is about to do, but it is already too late.
00:55:44The surroundings are suddenly engulfed in darkness as Megumi activates his domain expansion, bringing the battle to a decisive turning
00:55:52point.
00:55:52In this episode, it starts with Reggie activating a technique similar to Simple Domain.
00:55:57Confident in his strategy, he believes it will cancel the guaranteed hit effect of Megui Fushiguro's domain expansion.
00:56:04However, Reggie immediately realizes he has made a huge mistake.
00:56:08Megumi's domain expansion, Chimera Shadow Garden, is still incomplete, meaning it doesn't have a guaranteed hit effect in the first
00:56:16place.
00:56:16Reggie's countermeasure ends up being completely useless, leaving him open to Megumi's attack.
00:56:21Megumi quickly takes advantage of the opening and lands several powerful blows on Reggie.
00:56:26Even after taking the hits, Reggie refuses to give up.
00:56:29He remembers that everything stored inside Megumi's shadows adds weight that Megumi himself has to carry.
00:56:35Using his receipt technique, Reggie summons three full-sized cars and drops them into Megumi's shadows.
00:56:41The massive weight immediately overwhelms Megumi, forcing him to the ground.
00:56:46Every movement becomes difficult as his body struggles under the incredible burden.
00:56:50But Megumi has already prepared a counterattack.
00:56:53Instead of trying to escape the pressure, he summons Max Elephant directly above Reggie.
00:56:59The enormous Shikigami crashes down, forcing Reggie to support its tremendous weight if he wants to survive.
00:57:05Now, both fighters are locked in a brutal battle of endurance.
00:57:09While being crushed beneath Max Elephant, Reggie desperately tries to figure out how Megumi's domain expansion truly works.
00:57:15He comes up with several theories, hoping to discover a weakness before it's too late.
00:57:20Eventually, the overwhelming weight drags Reggie deep into the shadows.
00:57:24Believing the fight is finally over, Megumi lets his guard down for just a moment.
00:57:28Suddenly, one of the cars bursts out of the shadows, with Reggie riding on top of it.
00:57:33Since he never gave the cars any commands before they sank, he was still able to control one afterward, allowing
00:57:39him to escape from the shadows.
00:57:41Without wasting any time, Reggie reveals his final trump card.
00:57:45Using another receipt, he summons a gigantic house high above the battlefield and sends it crashing toward Megumi.
00:57:52Knowing there is no way he can survive the impact, Megumi waits until the very last second before sinking into
00:57:58his own shadows and deactivating Chimera Shadow Garden.
00:58:02The enormous house crashes through the battlefield, destroying the floor beneath them.
00:58:07Both fighters fall into the flooded level below.
00:58:09Their cursed energy is nearly exhausted, and both are physically worn out.
00:58:13With almost nothing left, the battle turns into a desperate hand-to-hand fight.
00:58:18They exchange punch after punch, each refusing to back down.
00:58:21Just when believing victory is within reach, Megumi reveals his final move.
00:58:26Divine Dog, which had only been pretending to be destroyed earlier in the battle, suddenly attacks Reggie from behind.
00:58:33The surprise attack is fatal.
00:58:35Reggie collapses, realizing he is lost.
00:58:37Before taking his final breath, he transfers all of his culling game points to Megumi.
00:58:42Meanwhile, Hazanoki continues attacking Fumihiko Takaba, but no matter what he does, Takaba doesn't suffer any damage.
00:58:50Even the injuries Takaba received earlier mysteriously heal themselves.
00:58:54At that moment, Kogane announces Reggie's death.
00:58:57After hearing the announcement, Hazanoki immediately gives up on fighting and retreats.
00:59:02Takaba simply jokes around and lets him leave without chasing him.
00:59:05The narrator then reveals the truth behind Takaba's incredible power.
00:59:10His curse technique allows anything he genuinely finds funny to become reality.
00:59:14The most unbelievable part is that Takaba doesn't even understand his own ability.
00:59:19Because of that, his curse technique becomes almost impossible to predict or counter, giving him the potential to rival even
00:59:26Satoru Gojo.
00:59:27Elsewhere, Remy also manages to survive.
00:59:30Although Megumi catches up to her, he ultimately decides to spare her life.
00:59:34Completely exhausted from the battle, he can no longer stand on his feet and collapses in a nearby alley.
00:59:39Just before he loses consciousness, a mysterious figure descends from the sky.
00:59:44Angel has finally appeared.
00:59:46At the same time, the focus shifts to Sendai Colony, where Yuta Okotsu has already defeated one of the colony's
00:59:52strongest sorcerers.
00:59:54However, his mission is far from over.
00:59:56Three powerful opponents still remain, and Yuta prepares to eliminate every one of them as the episode comes to an
01:00:02end.
01:00:02In this episode, it starts with Yuta reflecting on everything that has happened so far.
01:00:08His friends are injured, everyone is exhausted, and Yuta basically decides, you know what, I'll handle this myself.
01:00:14His goal is simple, get the 400 points they need and take down Kenjaku alone.
01:00:19But of course, Jujutsu Kaisen doesn't let him have a peaceful moment.
01:00:23While Yuta is helping civilians escape, a massive swarm of cockroaches suddenly starts rushing toward them.
01:00:29Yuta immediately sends Rika to protect the civilians, while he stays behind to deal with the threat.
01:00:35And then, we meet Kuro Urushi, basically a humanoid cockroach curse that is absolutely obsessed with the taste of blood.
01:00:43Yeah, nightmare fuel.
01:00:44Kuro Urushi unleashes thousands of insects and completely swarms Yuta, eventually dragging the fight far away from the civilians.
01:00:52Yuta could end the fight pretty quickly with reverse curse technique, but there's one problem.
01:00:57He doesn't want everyone to know everything he can do.
01:01:00Unfortunately, Kuro Urushi pushes him into a corner.
01:01:03The curse slashes Yuta multiple times, and disgusting maggots start coming out of his wounds.
01:01:09Then, when Kuro Urushi tries to strangle him, Yuta literally bites the curse.
01:01:14And this is where Yuta reminds everyone why he's built different.
01:01:17He floods Kuro Urushi with cursed energy from inside, and completely blows the curse apart.
01:01:23But Yuta barely gets a second to breathe, because another player immediately shows up.
01:01:28Takako arrives after learning that Yuta can use reverse curse technique.
01:01:32She wastes absolutely no time, and kicks him straight into the air.
01:01:36Yuta quickly realizes that Takako's technique can distort space, making her extremely difficult to hit.
01:01:43So instead of immediately throwing hands, Yuta tries talking to her.
01:01:46But honestly, he probably should have kept his mouth shut.
01:01:49Yuta slowly gets under her skin, until Takako completely loses her patience.
01:01:54She attacks him at full power, and starts flying through the sky while choking Yuta.
01:01:59And then, Ishigori shows up, and basically says,
01:02:02Why fight one person, when I can fight both?
01:02:05He fires one of his massive cursed energy blasts directly at them.
01:02:09The attack hits both Yuta and Takako.
01:02:11But Yuta immediately notices something worse.
01:02:14The blast could also reach the civilians, even with Rika protecting them.
01:02:18So Yuta changes targets, and charges straight toward Ishigori.
01:02:22The two start throwing hands, and Yuta tries using a metal pole to redirect Ishigori's massive blast.
01:02:28Except, the cursed energy gets stronger and stronger, until the pole literally breaks.
01:02:33So now, Yuta has no choice but to dodge everything himself.
01:02:37Ishigori blasts Yuta away, and before Yuta can recover,
01:02:40Takako appears again, and smashes him straight into the ground.
01:02:44At this point, both of them think Yuta is finished.
01:02:47They seriously underestimated.
01:02:49Yuta puts on his ring, and fully manifests Rika.
01:02:53And this isn't the usual Rika appearance.
01:02:55This is the real deal.
01:02:57Rika helps restore Yuta's cursed energy, and even gives him an armor-like glove,
01:03:02basically turning Yuta into a walking problem for everyone else.
01:03:06Now the fight becomes absolute chaos.
01:03:08Yuta fights Ishigori, while Rika keeps Takako busy.
01:03:12Then, they switch opponents, attack from different angles,
01:03:15and basically turn the battlefield into a non-stop three-way deathmatch.
01:03:20Nobody can get a clean advantage.
01:03:21And eventually, all three realize the same thing.
01:03:24There's only one way to finish this.
01:03:27Domain expansion.
01:03:29Yuta, Takako, and Ishigori all prepare to unleash their domains at the same time.
01:03:34And just when you think we're about to witness one of the craziest domain battles ever,
01:03:39Kuro Urushi comes back.
01:03:41Yes, the cockroach is still alive.
01:03:44The curse suddenly invades the battle and disrupts the domain expansions,
01:03:48completely ruining the fight.
01:03:50But Kuro Urushi doesn't stop there.
01:03:52It attacks Takako, and manages to cut off one of her arms.
01:03:56Ishigori immediately sees his chance, and fires another massive blast.
01:04:00The attack hits both Takako and Kuro Urushi.
01:04:04Takako goes down, and Kuro Urushi is finally killed.
01:04:08Now, only two fighters remain standing.
01:04:10Yuta and Ishigori.
01:04:12And Ishigori is absolutely not wasting the opportunity.
01:04:16He fires a gigantic cursed energy blast at Yuta from only a few meters away.
01:04:21Yuta has almost nothing left, but he still manages to think of a way out.
01:04:25He uses Takako's technique to redirect the blast straight into the sky.
01:04:28But there's a catch.
01:04:30Yuta no longer has enough strength to keep Rika fully manifested.
01:04:34So now it's basically just Yuta versus Ishigori.
01:04:37No massive backup, no easy tricks.
01:04:40Just straight hands.
01:04:42The two of them start beating each other down, until finally Yuta finds an opening.
01:04:46He manages to hold Ishigori down.
01:04:49And then comes the biggest brainplay of the entire fight.
01:04:53Remember that massive blast Yuta redirected earlier?
01:04:56Yeah, it comes crashing right back down.
01:04:59Right onto Ishigori.
01:05:01Ishigori survives, but at this point he knows he's been completely defeated.
01:05:05So, he agrees to give his points to Yuta.
01:05:08Takako also agrees to give Yuta her points.
01:05:10But before she does, she leaves him with a serious warning.
01:05:14Yuta has no idea what kind of enemies he's really dealing with.
01:05:18And honestly, after everything that just happened, that warning hits different.
01:05:22Yuta came into this fight trying to collect points.
01:05:25Instead, he ended up fighting a cursed cockroach, a space-bending sorcerer, and a human artillery cannon.
01:05:32All at the same time.
01:05:33And somehow, Yuta won.
01:05:36This episode was basically Jujutsu Kaisen saying,
01:05:39You thought the previous fights were crazy?
01:05:41That.
01:05:42The animation goes absolutely insane.
01:05:45The choreography is non-stop.
01:05:47And every character brings something completely different to the battlefield.
01:05:50Kuro Urushi is straight-up disgusting, but it adds a huge amount of chaos to the fight.
01:05:56Takako's technique is one of the most unique abilities we've seen so far,
01:06:00basically turning space itself into a weapon.
01:06:03And Ishigori?
01:06:04That man is basically a walking cannon with an attitude.
01:06:08The best part is that nobody feels completely safe.
01:06:11Everyone is ridiculously powerful,
01:06:13but one wrong move can still get them taken out instantly.
01:06:17And that's what makes this entire battle so crazy.
01:06:20There's no moment where you can confidently say who's going to win.
01:06:24Everyone keeps adapting.
01:06:25Everyone keeps switching targets.
01:06:28Everyone keeps getting pushed closer to their limit.
01:06:30And somehow, Yuta is the one who survives the entire madness.
01:06:35Season 3 ends on an absolutely massive note,
01:06:38with Yuta gaining the points he needed,
01:06:40while also receiving a warning that the real threats are still out there.
01:06:44So yeah, if you thought Yuta was already terrifying before this episode,
01:06:48this fight just proved that we haven't even seen his full potential yet.
