Phones buzz at lunch, group chats ignite: JJK Season 3 Episode 8 — What to Expect

You last left the episode with Amai pulling Yuji and Remi shadowing Megumi; those small beats matter because they set up pressure points. Expect Higuruma’s entrance to be front-and-center: previews point to a focused character moment that answers where he came from and why he moves the way he does.

Reports circulating on X (see posts from Myamura) suggest Episode 8 will lean into Higuruma’s backstory and show him slipping into Kenjaku’s meeting with foreign officials. I’ll flag that spoilers are spreading fast on social feeds, so if you want the raw experience, steer clear of trending threads until you watch.

The episode will also clarify how Yuji and Megumi’s paths converge — and whether Amai and Remi are honest about their motives. The tension is palpable and the pacing feels like metal filings drawn to a magnet: small choices now decide who gains control later.

Will Episode 8 include major spoilers from the manga?

Short answer: Yes, Episode 8 appears to adapt key manga beats around Higuruma and the early Culling Game setup. If you read ahead in the manga you’ll recognize core scenes; if you haven’t, expect the episode to answer questions while opening new ones.

I follow announcements from Gege Akutami’s production notes, Shueisha press, and platform release windows on Crunchyroll and Netflix so you don’t have to chase scattered posts. If you want live reaction checkpoints, watch the official feeds and X accounts tied to the Jujutsu Kaisen Project and prominent anime commentators.

Set your alarm, mute the spoiler feeds, and decide whether you’ll watch alone or with the brigade — which will you choose?
