Jujutsu Kaisen Season 4 Release Tracker
This is a living Jujutsu Kaisen Season 4 release tracker, updated as news drops: current status, the full announcement timeline, what the season will cover, English dub info and where to watch when it airs. Everything is sourced from official announcements and checked against two independent outlets — last verified June 12, 2026.
📅 Expected release
Our honest read: No date is confirmed as of June 12, 2026 — '2027 confirmed' headlines are projections, not official. The realistic window: January 2027 at the earliest (JJK's Japanese timeslot is reportedly booked until early 2027), with H2 2027 also plausible given MAPPA's load. The gap should be far shorter than S2→S3 (2.5 years) since production was already underway at announcement. Watch June 19, 2026 — MAPPA's 15th-anniversary lineup event is where a window, key visual or teaser is most likely to drop.

📖 What it will cover
Season 4 adapts the second half of the Culling Game arc (manga ch. ~181 onward): Hakari vs Kashimo, Maki vs Naoya in the Sakurajima Colony, Sukuna seizing Megumi's body, and the push to free Gojo from the Prison Realm — building directly into the Shinjuku Showdown. The hype is enormous because Gojo's unsealing (ch. 221) and the long-awaited Gojo vs Sukuna clash sit right at the end of this material.
🔚 Where Season 3 ended
Episode 12 'Sendai Colony' (March 26, 2026, extended finale) — Yuta Okkotsu clears the Sendai Colony, defeating Kurourushi, Takako Uro and Ryu Ishigori; corresponds to manga chapter ~180-181. Need the full viewing path? See our Jujutsu Kaisen watch order.
Keep reading: Continue reading from chapter ~181 (start of the Tokyo No. 2 Colony mini-arc). The manga FINISHED at chapter 271 (September 2024), so MAPPA has the complete ending to work with — Culling Game Part 2 plus the Shinjuku Showdown and finale remain to be animated.
🎙️ English dub
Season 3's English dub launched on Crunchyroll January 22, 2026, just two weeks after the January 8 sub premiere — a near-simuldub pattern (same as S2). Expect Season 4's English dub on Crunchyroll within ~2 weeks of its premiere.
📺 Where to watch
- Crunchyroll (worldwide simulcast expected, as with Seasons 1-3)
- Netflix (select regions, followed prior seasons)
