It could still be a while before Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 airs, as director Shota Goshozono reveals which character he is looking forward to animating.
Jujutsu KaisenSeason 3 will adapt Itadori’s Extermination, Perfect Preparation, and the Culling Game arcs. The Shibuya Incident has caused irreplaceable damage in Japan, and while sorcerers struggle to free Gojo from thePrison Realm, the higher-ups have their own plans.
Fans are most excited about the Culling Game Arc, but there is one character who will shine in the Perfect Preparation Arc. Maki Zenin survives Jogo’s attack in theShibuya Incident, drastically changing her appearance.
Maki’s new character design first appears in Chapter 144, and fans love her new design and insane power-up. Yuki Tsukumo explains that Maki survived only thanks to her superhuman strength from the heavenly restriction. EvenReverse Cursed Techniquecannot remove those scars as they are engraved in her body like markings.
While MAPPA has yet to announce whether he will be the Season 3 director, he has confirmed that he will be part of the animation staff.
Additionally, a popularJJK translatoralso shares that apart from Maki, Goshozono is also looking forward to animating the scene with Yuta, Yuji, and Choso. He is referring to the scene in Chapter 139 where Yuta appears and shocks Yuji, Choso, and Naoya with his presence.
One fanshares, “Maki is what I’m looking forward to the most about season 3, too. It’s my favorite arc in the series.”
