Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Episode 12 Release Time In India: When Will The Last Episode Of This Season Be Out

Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 reaches a key turning point this week, as episode 12 brings the Culling Game Arc to its midseason climax and moves the action away from Tokyo. Fans worldwide will be able to watch the new chapter through Crunchyroll, which streams the episode shortly after its late-night broadcast in Japan.

The second court is still some distance away, so this midseason finale has a lot riding on it. The anime has already shown harsh trials for Yuji Itadori and Megumi Fushiguro inside the Tokyo No. 1 Colony barrier, and viewers now shift focus to another powerful character whose story runs in parallel within the same deadly game.

Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 episode 12 Release Time In India

Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 episode 12, titled "Sendai Colony", streams on Crunchyroll in the US at 12:30 a.m. ET. The same simulcast appears at 9:30 a.m. PT, 10:30 a.m. MT, and 11:30 a.m. CT. These times feel later than earlier episodes for many viewers because Daylight Savings Time changed the US clock.

In Japan, the episode continues to air on the usual MBS/TBS nationwide network timeslot, starting at 12:00 a.m. JST on Friday, March 27. Crunchyroll then launches the simulcast worldwide about one hour after that Japanese broadcast, letting global viewers watch almost alongside the domestic audience.

As with earlier chapters of the Culling Game Arc, the initial release of Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 episode 12 is in Japanese with English subtitles. The English dub version will not appear at the same time; Crunchyroll is expected to add the dubbed episode two weeks after the subtitled premiere, following the recent pattern.

Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 episode 12 reaches different regions on March 26 and March 27, depending on local time zones. Below is how the Culling Game Arc midseason episode lines up across key countries and cities, including India, the UK, and Australia, based on the Crunchyroll simulcast schedule.

For anime viewers in India, this means Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 episode 12 becomes available on Crunchyroll at 10:00 p.m. IST on Thursday, March 26. UK fans can stream it at 4:30 p.m. GMT, while audiences in Sydney, Australia, will need to wait until 3:30 a.m. AEDT on Friday, March 27.

Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 episode 12: What To Expect From Finale?

Unlike the recent run of episodes, this chapter steps away from the Tokyo No. 1 Colony storyline. "Sendai Colony" is the first episode in more than six weeks that does not carry the Tokyo No. 1 Colony label, signalling a clear shift in focus within the Culling Game Arc.

The earlier five-episode stretch dug deep into Yuji Itadori and Megumi Fushiguro’s brutal encounters in Tokyo No. 1 Colony. Viewers watched extended clashes against powerful opponents like Hiromi Higuruma and Reggie Star, with the anime lingering on each critical moment and technique to fully cover that particular phase of the deadly tournament.

Now the spotlight moves to Yuta Okkotsu, whose battles in the Sendai Colony play a major role in the manga. Episode 12 is expected to draw from chapters 174 to 181, following Yuta as the character confronts four extremely strong jujutsu sorcerers inside another sealed arena, each with dangerous skills and distinct fighting styles.

The official synopsis for Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 episode 12 hints at trouble from a cursed presence already known to manga readers. It states that the dormant Kurourushi begins attacking people, forcing Yuta to challenge the creature directly, a clash that should bring intense horror elements and striking action animation.

Episode 12 also has extra weight because it marks the midseason finale for Jujutsu Kaisen season 3. In production terms, this chapter serves as the closing episode of the anime’s first cour and is described as the conclusion of "The Culling Game, Part 1", setting a pause point before the next batch of episodes.

The runtime reflects that status, as "Sendai Colony" is planned as a slightly extended instalment, running for about 27 minutes rather than the standard length. That gives the production more room to cover Yuta Okkotsu’s Sendai Colony clashes and the Kurourushi threat, while also wrapping up the current phase of the Culling Game Arc.

For fans of JJK, this midseason finale promises a key mix of horror, large-scale fights, and character focus. The events in the Sendai Colony are set to stay in viewers’ minds during the break between cours, while also laying firm groundwork for the second half of Jujutsu Kaisen season 3 when the Culling Game story resumes.
