Hakari vs Kashimo in the Jujutsu Kaisen anime is tied to the Culling Game’s Tokyo No. 2 Colony portion, which begins shortly after the series enters the Culling Game proper, not as early as Season 3 Episode 7.

What episode will Hakari vs Kashimo be?

In the manga, the full Hakari vs Kashimo fight adapts chapters 186–190.

Anime episode mapping for these chapters has not been officially confirmed yet , so any exact episode number right now is still speculative.

However, we can say:

  • Season 3 Episode 7 (“Tokyo No. 1 Colony / Tokyo Colony No.1”) is still setting up the Culling Game and focusing on Yuji, Megumi, and the colony entry.
  • Hajime Kashimo’s role is confirmed as a major Culling Game player chasing strong opponents, which foreshadows his clash with Hakari later in the arc.
  • Given standard pacing (about 2–3 chapters per episode), chapters 186–190 would likely fall in the mid–late Culling Game part of Season 3 (or early in a following cour if they split the arc) , not in the early single-digit episodes.

Simple take

So, to your question “what episode will Hakari vs Kashimo be?”:

  • The exact episode number has not been officially announced yet as of mid‑February 2026.
  • Expect the Hakari vs Kashimo fight to appear later in the Culling Game segment of the anime , once the story is deep into the Tokyo colonies rather than at their initial introduction.
