This post contains spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3.
Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 finally returned after years of absence, and it had a debut to remember. It was clear that MAPPA had once again outdone themselves and created a masterpiece that will be talked about for years to come. The new season of Jujutsu Kaisen debuted with two new episodes instead of just one, and as expected, they contained tons of new information.
JJK season 3 reveals humanity's new strongest wizard after Gojo and Sukuna
JJK has a new strongest wizard after Gojo and Sukuna. He will play a big role in JJK season 3.
One of the more interesting tidbits revealed in the episode was related to the legendary sorcerer, Gojo Satoru. Since the beginning of the series, it has been clear that Gojo Satoru's fighting ability is unmatched, and there is no one who can beat him. However, JJK Season 3 has revealed one character who has more cursed energy than Gojo Satoru.
Yuta Okkotsu has incredibly large cursed energy reserves

Currently, Yuta is humanity's strongest weapon
In JJK Season 3 Episode 2, Yuta Okkotsu finally talked to Itadori Yuji about the current situation in the country. After the Shibuya Incident arc, Gojo Satoru was sealed, which had far-reaching effects. Most importantly, it allowed the higher-ups at Jujutsu High to issue the order for the extermination of Itadori Yuji. They held back because of Gojo Satoru, not daring to upset the strongest wizard in the world, but with him gone, they were free to do whatever they wanted.
I want to believe that it's okay to keep living.
Yuta told Yuji how he had planned to “kill” him to fulfill the promise and save his junior from the top. Before Yuta stabbed Yuji, the former revealed that he had superior Cursed Energy Reserves compared to Gojo Satoru. But he also clarified that Gojo never ran out of energy because of the Six Eyes. Yuta's statement proves how superior Gojo Satoru is to the rest of the wizards and why Kenjaku was so desperate to seal him away. The villain knew that it would have been impossible for him to achieve his goal if Gojo roamed freely, which is why he hatched a ruse to capture the sorcerer.
Itadori and Yuta will try to save Gojo Satoru
Once Yuji had been “killed”, Yuta went to Naoya Zenin and asked him to report the same to the people at Jujutsu High. Yuta then dragged Yuji to safety and revealed that he had met Gojo Satoru, who had asked him to take care of Yuji. As the conversation between the students continued, Yuta revealed that they planned to rescue Gojo from the Prison Realm, but they needed more information.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Why Season 3 Will Have the Biggest Fights Yet
How does Jujutsu Kaisen aim to be bigger than the Shibuya incident? Just a huge battle royale that takes place across the country, of course.
So they sought an audience with Tengen, believing he might have the answers. Unfortunately, the episode ended before Tengen could reveal any details. There's no need to worry though, as Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Episode 3 is coming back on January 15, 2026.
The killing game is about to begin
Another big reveal from the first two episodes was the existence of the Culling Game, a competition between wizards and non-wizards. People all over Japan will compete in the tournament, and they must follow a certain set of rules. These are:
-
When a participant awakens their cursed technology, they must travel to a colony of their choice within 19 days and pledge their participation.
-
Players who break the first rule will have their technique stripped.
-
Non-players will become players when they enter a colony. Additionally, their entry will be taken as a pledge to join the Culling Game.
-
Participants will earn points for killing another player.
-
Each individual's life has a certain number of points.
-
Players can spend 100 points and negotiate with the game master to add a new rule.
-
The Game Master must approve any rule unless it interferes with the game of slaughter.
-
Players who do not receive new points within 19 days will have their tech stripped.
The rules sound really complicated at first, but fans will get a better understanding of them in the upcoming episodes as the Culling Game will be the focus of Season 3.
