Learning to destroy demons won’t be easy, and Tanjiro barely knows where to start. The surprise appearance of another boy named Giyu, who seems to know what’s going on, might provide some answers—but only if Tanjiro can stop Giyu from killing his sister first!
The first season of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba debuted in 2019, followed by Demon Slayer – Kimetsu No Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train in 2020. Mugen Train’s TV broadcast version debuted in October 2021, while Entertainment District Arc ran from December 2021 to February 2022.
