The stakes for the Culling Game are about to hit a boiling point. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 is shifting gears this week, moving from the chaotic introduction of the Gachinko Fight Club to a violent philosophical standoff. JJK Season 3 Episode 6, titled "Cog," is officially scheduled to premiere for international audiences on Thursday, Feb 5, 2026. As Yuji Itadori comes face-to-face with the suspended third-year student Kinji Hakari, fans can expect one of the arc's most intense confrontations yet, available exclusively for streaming on Crunchyroll. For most global viewers, the wait ends on Thursday.
While the episode airs in Japan on Friday, Feb 6, 2026, at 12:30 AM JST, international fans in Western time zones will get early access to JJK Season 3 Episode 6 on Feb 5 due to time differences. Following the series' established simulcast pattern, the episode will drop on Crunchyroll and other platforms at specific release times across the globe.
Yuji’s ‘Cog’ vs. Hakari’s ‘Fever’
Episode 6 picks up immediately after the cliffhanger of Episode 5, where Yuji finally gained entry to Hakari’s underground fight club. However, the preview suggests this won't be a simple negotiation. The meeting quickly devolves into a high-stakes brawl that is as much a clash of ideals as it is of cursed energy. The episode title, "Cog," references Yuji’s grim acceptance of his role as a mere part of the jujutsu machine, a tool to exorcise curses until he dies. This nihilistic resolve directly challenges Hakari’s philosophy of "Fever," a worldview driven by the heat of battle and the thrill of life.
Viewers should prepare for an explosive shift in animation and tone. Studio MAPPA is expected to showcase a rougher, "sandpaper-like" texture to the cursed energy during this fight, matching the raw brutality of Hakari. The chaos won't be limited to Yuji and Hakari; glimpses of the episode suggest Hakari’s ally, Kirara Hoshi, will join the fray against Panda and Megumi Fushiguro, using star-based attacks in a battlefield where even cars are weaponized.
