Demon Slayer movie and first season English dub are now streaming on Crunchyroll New, 2 comments. Demon Slayer is a unique success in anime, breaking boundaries into film and into the west like few other titles before it. There is plenty of manga left to adapt, so I would expect to see it around for a good long while. Technically, Funimation is counting the 7 episode Mugen Train arc as part of season 2 going forward here, but the never-before seen stuff will begin in December once that has wrapped.

Plenty to look forward to, and stay tuned for more info including new trailers, no doubt, as we get closer. Subscribe to my free weekly content round-up newsletter, God Rolls. Pick up my sci-fi novels the Herokiller series , and The Earthborn Trilogy , which is also on audiobook.

Right now!!! If a movie theater is understandably a no-go right now, you'll can also rent it on VOD platforms starting June The theatrical release is rated R for violence, if that gives you a sense of the anime's intensity. Considering the movie's massive success abroad, having opened as the number one movie in Australia and New Zealand in February and conquered the South Korean box office after its sweeping victories in Japan, the hype stateside was practically rabid, and the ticket sales have made it the highest-grossing R-rated animated movie and foreign movie in the US.

It'll sure make your movie-watching experience a whole lot less confusing if you do. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba the Movie: Mugen Train is a continuation of Season 1's final arc, counter to many other movie adaptations of anime series that tend to recap the important points of the previous season s.

And unlike many animated spin-offs that are ultimately inconsequential to the central plot, Mugen Train is a two-hour stop-gap that bridges the narrative between Season 1—with the final episode putting Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, and Inosuke on the titular train and setting up the powered-up big bad, courtesy of Muzan—and the upcoming Season 2.

No spoilies: As mentioned, the entire movie takes place on the eponymous locomotive we see our core crew chase down at the very end of Season 1 to meet up with the Flame Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku, and help take down the demon s that have been killing passengers aboard. Primarily responsible is Enmu, the Lower One of Muzan's extremely powerful demons in the Twelve Kizuki who we meet at the tail end of the first season, who is able to put ticket holders into a deep sleep, making it easy for lesser demons who make it on the train to, uh, eat people.

Tanjiro and co. How Tanjiro finds his way out of his reverie, where his family is still alive and Nezuko is a human, is tragic, and the rest of the movie, stuffed with big action set-pieces, builds up to a devastating ending that, one, introduces an even stronger demon in the Twelve Kizuki, and, two, will affect the entire Demon Slayer Corps.
