Demon Slayer is definitely a best-selling anime production. Since entering anime in the spring of 2019, it has been decisively recognized as one of the must-see anime series of the year. Since the first and last episodes of Demon Slayer, the anime has seen an increase of 1.4 million viewers. A survey of Japanese viewers revealed that Demon Slayer is the most satisfying anime compared to others. The set exudes quality, making a pure conspiracy work so well and presenting high octane action as well as a vivid and beautiful picture. That is why it is not surprising that there is an extension of the landing story. After the end of the first part of Demon Slayer, the Ufotable studio announced that the adventures of Tanjiro et al would continue as a movie set in the “Infinity Train” arc. Fans will be paying attention to this novella until it releases in 2020, and on that note, here are 8 things I really feel like watching in the movie.
Rengoku activates his abilities
It’s no surprise as Kyojuro Rengoku is emerging as one of the notable characters and figures from the “Infinity Train” arc in the film. Inosuke, Tanjiro, and Zenitsu learn that they must link the Kyojuro Rengoku, Pillar of Flame during a mission at the end of Demon Slayer’s first season finale.
We haven’t had much of the excited Rengoku, meanwhile, its outline when Tanjiro and co. were transported to the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps. But like for so long, we know he must be a tough friend to Tanjiro and his friends because he is a Hashira, after all. For a long time, demons like Akaza have been after Kyojuro in order to turn him into a demon and harness his power. We’ll have to wait for the movie to see if we can see it unleash its full potential through flame breath.
Zenitsu more reasonable about his power
The most exciting part of Tanjiro’s group is Zenitsu. It’s not like the other characters aren’t as entertaining, all have their own impact on the story but he often complains about his given job, which seems reasonable. Viewers then wonder how this whiny, deflated character could have become a demon slayer in the first episode.
Of course, we then learn his story, including the fact that when his life was in great danger, Zenitsu exceeded his limits and seized Breath of Thunder First Style: Thunderclap Flash by righteously trusting his instincts. Although that implies that he is comatose. He also has the divine speed ability to increase the speed of his thunderclap. However, after using it twice a day, his legs become inoperable due to the strain it puts in and the impact it has on his body. With the risks high in the next film, now would be a good time for Zenitsu to learn to be more aware – literally – of his abilities.
Nezuko’s presentation of her demon skills
Nezuko is the main plot character of Demon Slayer. After all, Tanjiro‘s primary purpose for becoming a Demon Slayer was to help find a cure for his now demonic sister. Nezuko played a pivotal role in the Natagumo Mountain arc, battling the Lower Fifth Moon Demon Rui.
She awakened her Blood Demon Art to help Tanjiro inflict the final setback on Rui. Nezuko is known to be the only demon, at this point in the series, to boost her Blood Demon Art without eating creatures. Expect Nezuko to shine at some point in the film and perhaps show more of her blood demon art, since this is a movie and not a season. She is known to be quite a friendly demon as she always wants to protect those she loves. Additionally, she tends to sleep to regenerate herself rather than sucking blood from humans. We’ll have to see how his demon role evolves in this movie to show his true abilities.
Muzan creates thoughtful power plays
Muzan Kibutsuji is, of course, Demon Slayer’s greatest demon and the cause of all glitches and difficulties for, not just the Demon Slayer Corps, but the entire sphere.
At the end of the first season, Muzan played an important role. He killed all but one of the demons in the Lower Moons, in anger over the overall performance of the demons. Fans should expect Muzan to shake things up towards the end of the Infinity Train movie arc. It will be interesting to see if Muzan will be able to capture any of the Hashira and kill them or turn them into demons. Plus, with his ability to transform into someone completely different, he can of course fool the protagonists.
Tanjiro’s father’s lifestyle
A notable example was noted during the Natagumo Mountain arc’s climax fight with Tanjiro, who is his sister, which was a brilliant scene. His unique breathing style is known as the Fire God Dance. The story of Tanjiro and Nezuko’s father was also told in this scene.
Tanjiro practices the Breathing Waltz method of the Fire God’s Dance against Rui, a unique and powerful sentry by being adorned in fire. This style of inhaling is known only by Tanjuro and currently Tanjiro Kamado as well. A new, stronger enemy in prospect for the movie ‘Infinity Train’ arc, this style could make for a modern look.
Tanjiro consolidating his total meditation
The breathing style is constant as we see Tanjiro begin to learn in future Season 1 episodes. This is why this technique is mostly mastered by the Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps. It was of significant prominence during the final episodes of the first season, as Tanjiro well again from the events of the competition with Rui in the Natagumo mountain arc. Even during his fight against the Six of the Upper Moon, Gutaro, Tanjiro was able to combine the breathing techniques of Water Breathing Meditation and the God’s Fire Dance to increase his speed and execute attacks that look like both styles of breathing. We’ll probably see more of that combination in this movie.
Inosuke playing a bigger character
Inosuke is the toughest character and friend of Tanjiro ‘s explorer party . Inosuke is no-nonsense and possesses incredible brute strength, but is held back slightly by his tough nature and general viciousness. As he was raised in the mountains by boars, he can be quite short-tempered and not very empathetic towards humans. It will be interesting to see his role in helping the demon slayers in this film.
On the other hand, he sincerely wants to better himself and become a good friend when Zenitsu, Tanjiro, and Inosuke are taken back to the Demon Slayer Corps’ control center to recover from the battle against Rui and his artificial “family”.
A Closer Look at the Upper Moons
For those unfamiliar with the Upper Moons, they are the 6th stronger half of the twelve demonic moons under the command of Muzan. Their mission is to find the blue spider lily, capture Nezuko Kamado, kill all demon slayer corpses, and serve Muzan with devotion. They are so strong that they have the power to wipe out all members of the Demon Slayer Corps with ease, unlike the Lower Moons. At the start of the series, only the Lower Moons fought the Demon Slayer Corps, but fans can’t wait to see what lies ahead.
If Enmu and Muzan Kibutsuji don’t end up getting paid out of pocket after the plot of the movie, this one could be a real probability. Of course, if that happens, don’t expect it to be a major part of the movie.
If Enmu fails to influence Muzan in any way in the movie, then Muzan will have to face more serious events to make a dent in the Demon Slayer Corps. This could lead to a threatening moment of seeing at least some of the Upper Moon’s companions.
