Disclaimer: This article contains significant spoilers for season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen. Reader discretion is advised.
Yuji’s fate in Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 is just the tip of the iceberg
Naobito Zen’in
Despite the heavy foreshadowing of Yuji’s death, it will actually be Naobito Zen’in who meets his demise first in the events of Jujutsu Kaisen season 3.
Despite the assumption of many anime-only fans, Naobito did not die during the Shibuya Incident arc. He managed to survive Jogo’s attack and will continue to play a role in the events covered in season 3.
In the Zen’in household, fans witness his passing after succumbing to the long-term effects of his injuries. Despite the lack of ceremony surrounding his death, it is still shocking to viewers, especially considering the reveal of his survival in Shibuya.
Protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen
Fulfilling his promise, the opening episode of Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 does indeed show Yuta Okkotsu killing Yuji Itadori.
Although Yuji’s life appears to have ended at the hands of Yuta, fans can find solace in the fact that this is not the end of his journey. In a moment of desperation, Yuta used his Reverse Cursed Technique to heal Yuji and fulfill both his Binding Vow with the Jujutsu Higher-Ups and his promise to Satoru Gojo.
The Zen’in
After Yuji’s resurrection, viewers can anticipate the Perfect Preparation arc in season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen.
The initial significant occurrence of this arc will revolve around Maki and Mai Zen’in’s return to their home, where they are condemned to death by their father Ogi. In their final moments, viewers will witness a powerful emotional bond between Mai and Maki, unlike any previously seen by fans.
This leads to Mai sacrificing herself in order to fully fulfill Maki’s Heavenly Restriction, also utilizing her remaining Cursed Energy to transform Maki into an exact copy of the Split Soul Katana.
Although presented in a straightforward and practical manner, this article depicts these situations with such emotional impact that it has the power to thaw even the coldest of hearts.
Ogi Zen’in and his wife
In Jujutsu Kaisen season 3, fans will witness Mai’s last wish for Maki to “eradicate everything”, specifically referring to the Zen’in clan.
Unsurprisingly, Maki honors this request and starts off by challenging her father who lives nearby. In the midst of the fight, Ogi draws a comparison between Maki and Toji Fushiguro in his thoughts, highlighting her impressive growth in strength.
After killing the remaining members of the Zen’in clan, Maki then shifts her focus to her mother and questions her about why she had requested for Maki to return to the clan in their past.
Despite her horrified mother’s lack of response to the question, Maki coldly and ruthlessly proceeds to kill her, ultimately bringing an end to the Zen’in clan massacre.
5) Tragedy of the Zen’in Clan
As previously stated, Maki carries out the extermination of the entire Zen’in clan to uphold her vow to Mai.
Similarly, in the upcoming episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen season 3, viewers can expect to see Maki caught up in a chaotic battle where new characters are introduced and eliminated just as swiftly. This exhilarating sequence is sure to be a standout moment of the season.
Despite the tragic events of the massacre, there is one crucial figure who meets their demise: Naoya Zen’in. As the son of Naobito, Naoya has a complicated history with Maki, one that is filled with unpleasant memories for both of them. In the upcoming season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen, Naoya’s involvement will become even more significant, underscoring the significance of mentioning him by name.
6) Masamichi Yaga
It is crucial to note the death of Masamichi Yaga in Jujutsu Kaisen season 3, as it signifies the complete betrayal of the jujutsu world towards Satoru Gojo and Yuji Itadori.
Similarly, viewers will witness fellow Jujutsu High principal Yoshinobu Gakuganji executing him, further highlighting the fact that the jujutsu world has abandoned the members of Tokyo Jujutsu High.
This death holds great significance as it sheds light on the origins of Yaga’s Cursed Corpses. Gakuganji was cursed by Yaga and informed of this crucial information, making his death particularly significant. In addition, his passing brings about character growth for Panda and a touching moment as he discovers Gakuganji’s death.
7) Chizuru Hari
Despite being a relatively minor character in Jujutsu Kaisen season 3, Hari’s death holds great significance in terms of who is responsible for it and what it represents. Simply put, Megumi Fushiguro is the one who kills Hari as the Culling Games commence, making him the first person Megumi has ever taken a life.
This event holds great significance as it compels Megumi to confront the brutal reality of the Culling Games and the sacrifices he must make to protect his sister. While it may sadden some fans to see Megumi lose his innocence, it serves as a crucial and impactful turning point in his character development.
Professional Football Player Reggie Star
Similarly, Reggie Star, the leader of their group, is Megumi’s immediate opponent after defeating Chizuru in Jujutsu Kaisen season 3. This battle proves to be one of the most challenging fights for Megumi so far.
Despite ultimately emerging as the victor, Megumi’s battle against Reggie prompts him to reevaluate his own strengths and employ his Ten Shadows Technique in cunning and resourceful manners to secure his triumph.
Megumi ultimately ends up killing Reggie, which serves to continue his growth and compels him to confront the sacrifices necessary to rescue Tsumiki.
Kurourushi
Despite being a minor character, Kurourushi’s death in season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen will undoubtedly shock fans due to the brutal and grotesque manner in which Yuta Okkotsu carries out the murder.
The scene where Yuta “kisses”the Special Grade cockroach Cursed Spirit is undeniably repulsive, but it is also quite memorable. Despite this, Kurorushi deserves some recognition for being one of the most intriguing players in the Culling Game, making him a character to look out for in Jujutsu Kaisen season 3.
Yuki Tsukumo
Lastly, it is highly probable that the enigmatic and beloved character Yuki Tsukumo will be the last casualty in season 3 of Jujutsu Kaisen.
Fans can expect an epic showdown between Yuki and Kenjaku that has the potential to go viral, not only due to its grandeur but also due to Yuki’s awe-inspiring Cursed Technique displayed in the fight.
The passing of the character is a crucial event in Jujutsu Kaisen season 3, as it foreshadows Kenjaku’s ultimate objective of merging with Tengen. Despite the emotional struggle, fans will be captivated by the intense battle and will endure the heartache it brings.
In conclusion
In Jujutsu Kaisen season 3, there are multiple deaths that will undoubtedly shock fans for different reasons, whether it be due to the sheer awesomeness of the scene, the emotional impact, or any other reason in between.
Regardless, it is evident that Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 will continue to deliver the same level of intense action and impact as its previous two seasons, if not surpassing them.
