Demon Slayer season 2 is coming out this year and do you know what amazing action awaits you?
The flesh-eating demons better run for their lives because brave Demon Slayers are on their way to slay them into the abyss. The much-awaited second season of the greatly popular “Demon Slayer” or “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” (Kimetsu no Yaiba is Japanese for “Blade of Demon Destruction”) anime is finally coming out this year after the first season ended on September 28, 2019. Ever since Demon Slayer premiered on television, it has been one of the most popularly watched anime because of its amazing story and God-tier animation.
Fans love every single thing about the Demon Slayer anime series, from story arcs and magnificent animation quality to the amazing music, especially the opening song “Gurenge” and hence the series was showered with love and affection.
Due to its growing popularity, Demon Slayer got a follow-up movie that came out the following year. The subsequent movie titled “Demon Slayer: Mugen Train” was a massive success and became the highest-grossing movie of 2020, a year in which all the theatres were closed because of the ongoing pandemic. The U.S. release of Mugen Train happened this year and it completely dominated (and is still dominating) the box office, beating high-budget movies like “Mortal Kombat”. With all that said we can understand the great level of excitement and hopes that Demon Slayer season 2 is packing.
Demon Slayer Season 2: Plot Details
Just like the movie picked up the story from where season 1 left off, covering an entire story arc, the second season of Demon Slayer is supposed to start right where Mugen train ended. During the climax of Mugen Train, we witness Rengoku Kyojuro, a Hashira in the Demon Slayer Corp and the pillar of fire, sacrificing himself in order to stop Akaza, the Third Upper Moon of the twelve Kizuki.
However, moments before his death, Rengoku asks Tanjiro and his friends to visit his home and use his father’s notes in order to learn the Flame breathing technique and become stronger. Tanjiro and his friends and fellow demon slayers, Inosuke and Zenitsu, swear to grow stronger so that they can defeat the twelve Kizuki. In the manga what comes next is the “Entertainment District arc”.
The Entertainment District Arc.
Demon Slayer season 2 will take up the Entertainment District arc which is the eighth story arc in Kimetsu no Yaiba. The story arc follows the visit of Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu to the Yoshiwara Red-Light District while accompanying Tengen, the sound Hashira. The Demon Slayers are on the mission to help Tengen investigate the rumors about demons in the district while helping him find his missing wives. During their investigation, they come across the Sixth Upper Moon, Daki, and her brother Gyutaro.
This is a major story arc because we will witness some very significant events in it. Of course, we will witness the battle between the slayers and the demons, but, we will also see Nezuko develop her demon marks and Tanjiro unlocking his Demon Slayer Mark. In addition to that, we will also witness the Upper Ranks altogether after they are summoned to the Infinity Castle by Muzan.
With all that said, Demon Slayer season 2 is sure to blow the fans away. Although there has been no confirmed date for its release, it has been confirmed that it will be released sometime this year. All good things take time so let’s wait patiently for Demon Slayer’s return.
