First-year Jujutsu High student and vessel of the King of Curses, Yuji Itadori, is plagued by guilt over what happened the night of the Shibuya Incident. But now it’s time to fight. The Culling Game has started, and the sorcerers must enter the fray to save innocent people swept up in the battle. Yuji is making new allies and reuniting with old friends as they search for a way to stop Kenjaku – and the end of the world. Let’s talk about everything that happened in Episode 6 of JUJUTSU KAISEN Season 3! WARNING: Full details for JUJUTSU KAISEN Season 3 Episode 6 follow. Seriously, spoilers ahead! Marked Megumi Fushiguro scouts out the fight club, using the shadows to take out two unsuspecting guards. At the same time, Panda uses his adorableness to lure and knock out two more. They quietly make their way to the top level of the parking garage, where the monitor room is located. They lock eyes with Kirara, who’s walking back to the monitor room and is just as surprised to see them as they are. Kirara quickly deduces that Megumi and Yuji are from Jujutsu High and signals Hakari. Megumi calls forth his shikigami, Demon Dog. Kirara stops it with a touch and it flies back, colliding with its summoner. They activate the marks they placed on Panda and Megumi, then begin running toward the office. Panda’s close behind them, yelling that they’re just trying to ask Hakari a favor. Kirara doesn’t believe him. Panda still can’t get close to them, as if an invisible wall is separating them. Megumi attempts to understand how Kirara’s cursed technique works as quickly as he can. Southern Cross Megumi jumps in front of Kirara and insists that he’s not with the school, but they obviously don’t believe him. Panda tells Megumi that the school’s conservative sorcerers fought with Kirara and Hakari, valuing traditional cursed techniques over theirs. All of that aside, Kirara adds, Satoru Gojo can help them with whatever it is. When Megumi replies that Gojo has been sealed, the total disbelief on Kirara’s face says it all. Megumi sees that talking isn’t working and summons his rabbit shikigami. He notices the rabbits are marked with the name “Acrux,” and “Gacrux” is scrawled on the monitor room door. But this summoning isn’t to attack, it’s to push the boundaries of Kirara’s technique. Panda discovers his own mark, the name “Imai,” and Megumi finds “Acrux” on his washboard abs (where have you been hiding those?!). He realizes that Kirara’s technique is based on a constellation, the Southern Cross. It was just a guess, but Kirara’s reaction confirms it. He and Panda try to remember how many stars are in the cross, and theorize the marks have to be approached in a certain order. Love Rendezvous Panda and Megumi are too close to figuring it out, so Kirara goes on the offensive. They activate the mark on a car; since it shares the name Imai with Panda, it’s drawn to him. When Megumi confirms the mark is on the cursed energy imbued in the car, he looks for the energy of one more star – there are five total, not four. He spots it on the garage wall. The first-year student figured it out. Kirara’s technique, Love Rendezvous, apportions five stars to a target’s cursed energy; for one star to approach another, it must follow a predetermined order. Things marked with the same star are attracted to each other. Kirara changes the marks to send objects at Megumi, not realizing that Demon Dog had been hiding, and was now flying at them. They cancel their technique. Megumi won the fight, but he just wants Kirara to hear him out. Kirara agrees, just as Yuji is flung out of the monitor room door. He asks Panda and Megumi to stay back as he gets to his feet. Cog in the Wheel Hakari emerges from the monitor room and hits Yuji squarely in the face. He doesn’t try to dodge it. Yuji doesn’t view their confrontation as a fight, but as a ritual for Hakari to acknowledge him, so he won’t hit back. Kirara shouts that the kids just want his help. When a sorcerer asks another sorcerer for help, Hakari says, it’s understood that means risking their life. Hakari wants to see Yuji’s passion if he’s going to ask that of him, but Yuji admits he doesn’t have it. He’s just a cog in the machine that sorcerers need to keep exorcising curses. Hakari hits him even harder. Yuji stands up again, to the sorcerer’s shock. As Hakari rears back for another hit, Kirara calls out to him. They point out that Yuji’s gotten him heated up. Hakari pauses and says he’s ready to make a deal. Kirara remembers that he burned brightest by helping others at Jujutsu High. A kogane appears before the group and says a rule has been added to the Culling Game. Players can view the following information on other players: name, points, number of rules added and current colony. Elsewhere, an incarnated sorcerer with blue-green hair laments that things were better 400 years ago. His name is Hajime Kashimo, and he made the new rule… after racking up a staggering 200 points. What’s next for Yuji and his allies? Stay tuned to JUJUTSU KAISEN to find out, right here on Crunchyroll!
