What Is the Future of Demon Slayer Online?
The journey of Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, and Inosuke will soon end on the big and small screen.
According to projections aligned with the manga, Demon Slayer is anticipated to span five seasons. The fourth season is diving into the Hashira Training arc and potentially the Infinity Castle arc.
Regarding arc division, there's speculation that the fourth season could focus primarily on Giyu, including his backstory and pivotal battles, culminating in clashes with Akaza and Douma.
This choice may provide a fitting conclusion for the season, especially considering Tanjiro's minimal involvement in the Kokushibou fight.
Season 5 is predicted to revolve around the Kokushibou and Muzan fights, potentially offering insights into Yorichii's backstory.
The entirety of Demon Slayer manga is available, having released from February 15, 2016 to May 18, 2020.
For the latest cinematic anime experience, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba - To the Hashira Training is now playing in theaters.
