Release Date
Demon Slayer Season 3 began airing on Crunchyroll in April 2023. The Swordsmith Village arc kicked off with an hour-long special, as opposed to the normal 20-minute runtime, which included a seriously epic prologue. The first episode also aired early in February and March as part of a global ‘theatrical screening event’ (similar to the Mugen Train situation) that included episodes 10 and 11 of Demon Slayer season two. The dubbed episodes of Demon Slayer season 3 will start airing on Crunchyroll on May 28, 2023.
Cast
Most of the cast from the first and second seasons is returning for Demon Slayer Season 3. The two major additions have been Mist Hashira, Muichiro Tokito, and the Love Hashira, Mitsuri Kanroji. Key players from the production crew will also be back, including head of original story Koyoharu Gotoge, director Haruo Sotozaki, and character designer Akira Matsushima.
Plot
Demon Slayer season three will focus on the original manga’s ninth arc, the Swordsmith Village arc. It picks up directly after the Entertainment District arc, which ended with Tanjiro and Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui defeating the demon siblings Gyutaro and Daki. The arc sees Tanjiro travel to the Swordsmith Village to have his blade repaired, where he reunites with two Hashira, members of the Demon Slayer Corps’ highest-ranking swordsmen – Mist Hashira Muichiro Tokito and Love Hashira Mitsuri Kanroji.
