The new season is expected to cover the entire Hashira Training Arc. Hashira training arc is the 10th arc of Demon Slayer and covers chapters 128-136. The story will feature the protagonist Tanjiro Kamado as he approaches the stone Hashira, Gyomei Himejima, in search of a mentor. In addition, the season might cover a part of the Infinity Castle Arc in which the Demon Slayer Corps infiltrates the antagonist, Muzan Kibutsuji’s lair, the Infinity Castle.

Fans are also hoping for more character backstories. The most anticipated one currently seems to be Giyu Tomioka’s story. Giyu Tomioka is the Water Hashira and the first Demon Slayer who Tanjiro encounters. Tomioka was attempting to kill Tanjiro’s sister Nezuko who had recently turned into a demon. However, Tomioka lets Nezuko live when he realises that she doesn’t harm humans. He was also the one to introduce Tanjiro to the Demon Slayer Corps and encourage him to become one.

Demon Slayer has quickly become one of the most famous anime. Its stunning animation, thrilling fights, and compelling character arcs have made it extremely popular among the anime community.
