With what many fans consider to be the best episode of the series, the final battle of the Entertainment District arc comes to a close.
The struggle between Tanjiro, Hashira’s son, and higher-rank demons Daki and Gyutaro has concluded, and Demon Slayer fans are overjoyed.
In a flash of action and great animation, the extended battle between the Demon Slayer Corps and the higher-ranking sibling duo came to a gruesome end. Zenitsu and Inosuke used their abilities to decapitate Daki, while a gravely injured Tengen Uzui joined Tanjiro in delivering the final blow to the villain’s brother, Gyutaro.
Both fans and critics reacted positively to this episode, with appreciation for the dramatic climax to Daki and Gyutaro’s narrative, as well as the outstanding animation and frenetic choreography made by Ufotable animation studio. Many people compared the animation quality of the episode to that of the series’ debut film, Mugen Train, which was lauded for its stunning aesthetics when it was released in 2020. Many netizens have commented on the anime fan’s quality of life on social media. They commended Demon Slayer and the most recent Attack on Titan episode for their excellent production and storytelling, which were both published on the same day in various countries.
Along with the joy of the battle’s conclusion comes a sense of sadness, as the conclusion of the Entertainment District arc may also signal the end of Demon Slayer’s second season, which will be slightly shorter. The final episode of the arc, which will show on February 13, will have a 45-minute runtime, according to Ufotable. Following the conclusion of the Entertainment District arc, the show’s creators have yet to reveal their plans for a sequel.
Koyoharu Gotouge, a reclusive author, produced Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba, which was first published in 2016. The original manga went on to become one of the most popular serial manga of all time, with over 150 million copies sold worldwide. The tale of Gotouge finished in late 2020, but the series’ enduring popularity helped it become the second best-selling manga in Japan in 2021, with 29.5 million copies sold. VIZ Media has released the whole manga series in English. Crunchyroll and Funimation are simulcasting new episodes of the anime as they show in Japan, so you can watch the second season there. These two services also have the first season accessible for streaming.
