Here are the answers to your questions.
Is the Demon Slayer anime ending after Season 4?
No, Demon Slayer anime will not end with Season 4, Hashira Training arc.
In this latest episode, fans witnessed Ubuyashiki Kagaya, the supreme commander of the Demon Slayer Corps, confronting the Demon King Kibutsuji Muzan as he infiltrates his secret mansion. Despite being in a near-death state due to his illness, Ubuyashiki uses himself and his family as bait to trap Muzan within the compound, utilizing Tamayo’s Blood Demon Art.
As the compound explodes and flames engulf the surroundings, the Hashiras and Kamado Tanjiro rush to save their master. They see the Stone Hashira, Himejima Gyomei, locked in a one-on-one battle with Muzan. The episode reveals that Gyomei is part of Ubuyashiki’s plan to contain Muzan until sunrise.
As the Hashiras prepare for battle and charge toward the Demon King, they are suddenly transported to Muzan’s territory, the Infinity Castle, along with other members of the Demon Slayer Corps. This sets the stage for the highly anticipated final showdown.
Will there be more seasons of Demon Slayer?
No, there will be no more seasons of the Demon Slayer after the Season 4 ending.
After Episode 8 of Season 4 previewed the upcoming clash between the demons and the Demon Slayer Corps in the Infinity Castle, fans were left with high anticipation. The story will continue with a special movie trilogy announced by Ufotable. This trilogy will cover the final battles and remaining plotlines.
Why is Demon Slayer ending with a movie trilogy?
Although there will be no next season of Demon Slayer, Ufotable will bring its final arc, the Infinity Castle Arc, to screens in the form of a movie trilogy. Announcing the trilogy on X (formerly Twitter) with a 2-minute promotional clip, Crunchyroll stated, “The end is near. Crunchyroll is excited to bring Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle to theaters as an epic trilogy!”
Ufotable has not provided an official reason for presenting the last arc as movies. However, considering the success Ufotable had with the Mugen Train arc movie, this could be a masterstroke.
After Demon Slayer Season 4 ended, fans began gearing up for the trilogy. The Infinity Castle arc will show the Demon Slayers battling Muzan and his twelve highest-ranked demons in a final fight.
