Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 OP Breakdown: Decoding 'AIZO' Easter Eggs and Culling Game Hints

The new opening for Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, featuring the song “AIZO” by King Gnu, has officially dropped. Fans are already dissecting the creditless sequence for crucial clues regarding the highly anticipated Culling Game arc.

Director Shota Goshozono handled the storyboarding and co-unit directed the sequence alongside Takeru Sato. The resulting opening is visually dense, employing painterly aesthetics and rapid visual shifts that match the intensity of the track.

The visuals immediately establish a fractured, post-Shibuya tone. Shots of Yuji Itadori alone emphasize the scattered state of the main cast entering this new phase. The sequence strongly hints at Megumi Fushiguro’s immediate fate, utilizing shadowy imagery that confirms his connection to Sukuna’s escalating influence, a central conflict moving forward.

Flashes of violence and broken barriers signal the escalating brutality awaiting sorcerers within the Culling Game colonies. The OP introduces new Culling Game combatants almost like character profile cards, mirroring how Gege Akutami introduced the shifting roster in the manga.

Quick inserts involving Tengen and imagery related to the Prison Realm confirm that the immediate consequences of the Shibuya Incident remain central to the plot progression. This opening maintains the experimental visual flair established in Season 2 while teasing the grounded, brutal hand-to-hand combat that defines the Culling Game arc. With the new season now airing and the creditless OP available, viewers have substantial material to analyze as the anime moves toward its next major conflicts.
