In October one of the most anticipated and important series in recent years returns. Demon Slayer debuted at the same time as Attack on Titan 3 and One-Punch Man 2 in 2019, which temporarily clouded it. Just a little delay in the relentless climb to success that it made Demon Slayer one of the best selling products of all time.
Fans can’t wait to see Demon Slayer 2 and its accompanying episodes until the end of March 2022. Six months of production, the march of which is known at least at the beginning. According to the latest information communicated, Demon Slayer 2 will readjust the bow of the Mugen train, the theme of last year’s film. Not a trivial choice, but one that could have precise ideas behind it. Knowing that the first seven episodes are devoted to the revival of the Mugen train, which storylines Demon Slayer 2 will adapt in the next season?
Let’s start with a basic point: Demon Slayer 2 will consist of 24 or 25 episodes that have already been announced as 2-Cour. That means that, apart from the first seven episodes, there are still 17 or 18 episodes to fill. Many of these will include the long-awaited arc of the red light district, however The saga alone can’t think of covering more than a dozen of these episodes. It would be about 7 or 8 episodes, if not a few more, to fill.
So it would be enough space to adjust the story arc of the blacksmith village as wellunless Ufotable opts for a fully completed saga. Season 2 of Demon Slayer would therefore be divided into three parts, which would then begin the final phase of the anime with a possible season 3.
The decision to also reintroduce the elements of the Demon Slayer film could therefore be the right one from Ufotable, who at the same time would have the opportunity to both reduce the workload – and thus concentrate on a better performance of the next episodes – and inevitably to do so prolong the broth of the next phases with useless or too watered down episodes.
