Jujutsu Kaisen The Culling Game opened with two intense episodes that immediately changed the direction of the story. Season 3 begins after the Shibuya disaster and shows how broken the jujutsu world has become. The ending of Episodes 1 and 2 sets up the Culling Game while delivering one of the biggest twists in the series so far.
Yuji Itadori’s fate, Yuta Okkotsu’s role, and Tengen’s appearance all connect to the deadly battle that is about to begin. These moments explain why the Culling Game will not be a normal arc but a survival test for every character involved.
Jujutsu Kaisen The Culling Game Begins With Yuji’s Fake Death
The biggest shock in Episode 1 comes when Yuta Okkotsu is ordered to execute Yuji. The higher-ups see Yuji as a threat because of Sukuna. Yuta is forced to accept the mission because he is bound by a powerful vow that cannot be broken.
Yuta attacks Yuji without hesitation and stabs him through the heart. Yuji dies for a short moment. This was not an illusion or trick. His heart really stopped, which made the execution officially valid.
This is where the twist changes everything. Yuta immediately uses Reverse Cursed Technique to bring Yuji back to life. The elders believe Yuji is dead, but in reality he survives. This allows Yuji to move freely without being hunted by jujutsu headquarters.
Yuta proves that he is not Yuji’s enemy. He follows the rules on paper while protecting him in reality. This scene shows how corrupt and dangerous the jujutsu system has become.
Tengen’s Reveal And The True Shape Of The Culling Game
Episode 2 shifts the story toward something much larger. Yuji, Megumi, and the others travel to meet Tengen, the immortal sorcerer who controls the barriers protecting Japan. They enter a strange white space where reality feels unstable.
Tengen already knows everything about them. He explains that the Culling Game is a massive ritual created by Kenjaku. It forces people with cursed energy to fight inside special colonies across Japan. Killing, survival, and cursed techniques all feed the ritual.
Megumi learns that his sister Tsumiki has been marked as a player. This gives him no choice but to enter the Culling Game. Yuji also agrees to fight, even though he knows Sukuna could take over at any moment.
Yuji asks Yuta to kill him if Sukuna ever regains control. This is not bravery. It is fear mixed with responsibility. It shows how much Yuji is willing to sacrifice to protect others.
Why The Ending Changes Everything For The Series
The ending of Episodes 1 and 2 does not give answers. It creates pressure. Yuji is alive but officially dead. Megumi is walking into a battle to save his sister. Yuta is now both protector and executioner.
The Culling Game is not about winning fights. It is about surviving a system designed to break people. Tengen’s presence confirms that this is bigger than any single character.
These episodes show that Jujutsu Kaisen has moved into its most dangerous phase. Trust is fragile. Rules are deadly. Every decision now has permanent consequences.
Jujutsu Kaisen The Culling Game does not begin with explosions. It begins with betrayal, sacrifice, and a fake death that changes the fate of everyone involved.
