Demon Slayer anime is certainly hurtling towards its endgame, going by how the situation is shaping up! While the opening episode of the Hashira Training arc was relatively light-hearted, it did touch upon the aftermath of the Swordsmith village arc, and the especially the new demon slayer marks which Mitsuri and Muichiro received.
As a bonus we got a revelation of Muzan’s past.
The upcoming Demon Slayer Hashira Training Arc episodes will build on the discussion that Hashira had, and move on to the training that Tanjiro, Inosuke and Zenitsu will have to undergo.
While Tengen returns in the role of a teacher, Tamayo too will be making an appearance, playing a pivotal role in episode 2, and also the upcoming events.
As a battle with Muzan looms on the horizon, the stakes keep getting higher in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba.
