Season 3 of 'Jujutsu Kaisen' is currently on a scheduled break after the release of its first seven episodes. The storyline, known as the Culling Game and adapted from Gege Akutami's manga, will take a one-week hiatus, during which the streaming platform Crunchyroll will air a recap episode on February 19, 2026. This pause in the release schedule is designed to provide a brief interval and is not indicative of any delays in the overall season rollout.

Fans of the series need not worry about a long hiatus; episode 8 is still set to release within the planned timeline. Following the recap episode, viewers can expect to see the continuation of the Culling Game arc, which has been well-received both critically and among the anime community. The season's production team has worked to maintain a consistent pattern for viewers, ensuring that there is continued engagement with the series despite this brief interruption.

As anticipation builds for the eighth episode, this pause allows fans to revisit previous episodes and discuss their thoughts on the plot developments so far. The episode is scheduled to premiere on February 26, 2026, which is just a week following the recap, allowing the series to maintain its momentum and continue to draw in viewers globally on Crunchyroll, its principal streaming service outside of Japan.
