Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 3 takes readers deeper into the escalating tension between sorcerers, humanity, and the mysterious alien visitors who’ve turned the world upside down. The first two chapters focused on diplomacy and distrust, but Chapter 3 throws the characters into their first truly dangerous mission — a horrifying “man-eater” case that could shatter their fragile alliance.
Spoiler Warning: This article contains detailed spoilers from Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 3. Proceed with caution if you haven’t read it yet.
Mission in Gifu: The Sorcerers Mobilize
Chapter 3 opens with the sorcerer squad — Usumi, Yuka, Tsurugi, and Maru — being dispatched to Gifu Prefecture, a rural region far from Tokyo’s usual cursed spirit activity. Their briefing is simple yet ominous: a so-called “man-eater” has been sighted and must be neutralized before more lives are lost.
The situation immediately raises eyebrows. Tsurugi notes that cursed spirits rarely appear outside Tokyo, long considered Japan’s “supernatural hotspot.” For decades, sorcerers haven’t dealt with major incidents beyond the capital — until now.
Yuka and Usumi investigate further, uncovering disturbing details. Witnesses claim the man-eater resembles a shark, even though sightings have occurred in dense forests far from rivers. Two confirmed deaths and three eyewitness accounts confirm that something unnatural is roaming the countryside.
Suspicion quickly turns to the aliens. Yuka openly suggests that Maru and his people might be involved, accusing him of hiding information. This accusation sets the tone for a heated conflict between the human sorcerers and their alien ally.
Sorcerers vs. Aliens: Trust on the Brink
Maru doesn’t deny the possibility but insists that things aren’t as simple as they seem. Tsurugi, frustrated, accuses Maru of holding back his power during previous incidents — including a kidnapping that could have been prevented. Maru counters that he was under strict orders not to interfere, sparking a philosophical clash about duty, trust, and moral responsibility.
The Arrival of Nagata: A Retired Sorcerer
Just when tensions threaten to boil over, a new character enters the stage — Nagata, a retired sorcerer and Jujutsu College graduate. Despite Tsurugi teasing him for being past his prime, Nagata quickly establishes his authority.
Nagata reveals the shocking truth: the “man-eater” is not a curse or alien threat but Toranosuke — a tiger descended from illegally imported big cats decades ago. Driven by hunger and thirst, Toranosuke has wandered into human territory, leaving tragedy in his wake.
For Nagata, this mission is personal. He once cared for Toranosuke as a cub and still feels responsible for its fate. Unlike Tsurugi, who insists the beast must be killed to protect villagers, Nagata believes Toranosuke is a victim of human negligence and deserves to live.
Nagata’s Trump Card and the Cliffhanger Ending
In the final pages, Nagata shows that his sorcery skills remain sharp. Using his unique blood-scent detection technique, he tracks Toranosuke through the forest, calling to it as if addressing an old friend.
The chapter ends on a tense cliffhanger as something stirs in the darkness. Toranosuke is about to appear — and the next chapter promises a dramatic confrontation where the sorcerers must choose between killing and saving the creature.
Why Chapter 3 Is Crucial
Jujutsu Kaisen Modulo Chapter 3 isn’t just about monster-hunting — it’s about moral dilemmas and world-building. Tsurugi and Maru represent youth and conflicting ideals, while Nagata embodies experience and compassion. The chapter challenges readers to ask difficult questions:
-
Should Toranosuke be killed to protect humans, or spared as a victim of environmental collapse?
-
Should Maru follow orders blindly, or act to save lives even if it means betraying his people?
By the final page, Chapter 3 proves to be more than action-packed. It’s a layered exploration of trust, responsibility, and the blurred line between monster and victim. The reveal that the man-eater is not a curse or alien but a tiger driven mad by human actions adds tragic weight to the story, setting the stage for an emotional showdown in Chapter 4.
