3 Things Fans Will Hate in Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3

Videos by ComicBook.com

Following his unexpected arrival, Yuta’s determination to kill Yuji Itadori shocks everyone as his true intentions remain unknown. Season 3 will commence with Itadoriโ€™s Extermination Arc, where Yuta will target Yuji as per the pact he made with the top brass. The season will then cover the Perfect Preparation Arc, focusing on Maki Zenin before moving on to the highly anticipated Culling Game. While the upcoming season will be full of exciting moments, these three things will likely cause some dissatisfaction among fans.

3) Yuki’s Death Is Still One of the Most Disappointing Moments in Jujutsu Kaisen

Considering the hype around Yuki Tsukumo, a special-grade sorcerer, her death was too underwhelming. The creator had an excellent opportunity to delve deeper into her character and elaborate on her goals, which heavily contradict those of Kenjaku. Yuki also had the most intriguing dream in the series, which wasnโ€™t expanded on. She died fighting Kenjaku in the Culling Game after joining the sorcerersโ€™ side. The death was brutal and too sudden, leaving readers with bitter feelings over the way she was simply excluded from the story without reaching her true potential or getting the recognition she deserved.

2) Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Won’t Reveal Nobara’s Fate

Nobara suffered a fatal injury to the head in the Shibuya Incident Arc, and technically, she couldnโ€™t survive after taking a direct hit from Mahito. However, Arata Nitta, a non-combatant type of jujutsu sorcerer, used his technique to stop her bleeding. Despite his efforts, her injuries were still severe, so he took her for emergency treatment. While he did say that thereโ€™s not a zero percent chance of saving her, he also hoped that Yuji wouldnโ€™t have high hopes. Although the manga unveils what happened to her, it was only during the final stretch of the story. This means that Season 3 wonโ€™t resolve Nobaraโ€™s plot and will continue to leave anime-only fans in the dark.

1) Gojo Won’t Be a Part of the Culling Game

Thereโ€™s no denying that Satoru Gojo is one of the most famous anime characters in modern shonen, which is why fans are always waiting to see more from him. He has a certain presence in the story that canโ€™t be compared to anyone else. However, after being sealed in the Prison Realm, Gojo only appeared years later. While Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 will have a few scenes featuring him, they will mostly be flashbacks or anime-only additions. He only returns to the story after the Culling Game Arc ends, at which point the story enters its Final Arc and commences the epic battle of the strongest.
