The name Demon Slayer has been heard quite a lot these days as it has garnered quite a good amount of attention with the theatrical release of the second movie, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. It made over $50 million, which is not a joke for an anime that just started airing in 2019. The movie is worth the hype as it has become a critically acclaimed new-gen anime. But are you ready for Demon Slayer Season 3?
The Upcoming Season’s Angles That Would Have Fans Thrilled
This new season is going to unlock a lot of new corners that are yet to be known by the fans. Tanjiro, Mist Hashira, Love Hashira, and other characters are going to have pivotal roles in the season. However, it’s just the first episode that has caused the storm, and the rest of the episodes of the Swordsmith Village arc are still on their way to making fans go wild.
Note: This article is subjective and reflects the writer’s views.
1) Love Hashira and Mist Hashira
In the world of Demon Slayer, Hashiras are known to be the savior of humanity as they are elite swordsmen who serve as the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps. Among the nine present, Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Hashira, and Muichiro Tokito, the Mist Hashira, will have a pivotal role in Season 3.
Mitsuri Kanroji and Muichiro Tokito will get the deserved amount of screen time as they will finally get the chance to showcase their skills and incinerate the cold-blooded enemies. They will be seen assisting Tanjiro in rescuing his sister, Nezuko Kamado. Later, they will use their abilities against Muzan Kibutsuji and his 12 Demon Moons to defeat them.
2) Introducing the rest of the Upper Ranks
Demon Slayer Season 2 witnessed the decapitation of the infamous Upper Rank 6, Daki, and her brother Gyutaro. The forthcoming season will be critical as it will reveal the rest of the Upper Ranks except Akaza, as he was already seen in Mugen Train.
The best part of the upcoming arc will be the revelation of Upper Rank 1, Kokushibo, who is the brother of the legendary Demon Slayer, Yoriichi. The former has maintained his reputation as the Upper Rank 1 for 500 years, which says a lot about his strength. Upper Rank 2, Doma, Upper Rank 4, Hantengu, and Upper Rank 5, Gyokko will also be featured in the season.
3) Progressing to unveil Yoriichi’s history
As seen in season 2 of Demon Slayer, which featured the Entertainment District arc, Yoriichi’s history has played a significant role. His story has a substantial influence over the entire plot, and thus, Demon Slayers’ history through his tale is expected to be explored further in the forthcoming season.
Demon Slayer is enriched with sword culture and depth in warrior history. Yoriichi was the progenitor of the Demon Slayer Corps. He, like Tanjiro, wore Hanafuda earrings and is regarded as the first Breath user. He invented the legendary Sun Breathing style, from which all other Breathing forms evolved.
The season will also showcase the sword Yoriichi used, which was placed inside a training model of himself. Tanjiro will decapitate it, and the 300-year-old hidden sword will come out.
4) Muichiro and Mitusri’s backstories
Demon Slayer Season 3 will delve deep into the past lives of both the Hashiras, Mist, and Love. As they have a pivotal role in the series, their backstories should also be revealed to viewers. It will showcase their motivations to be in the corps and save humanity.
Muichiro, the most mysterious and skilled warrior, has great strength and agility. Being a prodigy, he was elevated to a Hashira just two months after joining the corps. He seems shy and absent-minded, which is not always true. His backstory will reveal why he is the way he is.
Mitsuri is also a high-ranked warrior who is quite skilled and calm at the same time. Her shyness has been mistaken to be her weakness quite a few times, which is not true, as she is an elite warrior. The season will also showcase a little insight into her unique Nichirin Blade, along with her backstory.
5) Fight between Tanjiro and Mist Hashira with an army of demons
Demon Slayer is widely recognized for its breathtaking fight scenes, and the forthcoming season will not disappoint as it will feature some of the greatest fights in the series. According to the manga, there is a particular fight between an army of demons against Tanjiro and Muichiro.
It will take place when the Mist Hashira will behead an Upper-Rank Demon who approached them at the village. After being decapitated, the Upper-Rank Demon will multiply itself and form a group of demons that will further indulge in a great fight against Tanjiro and Muichiro.
