Fans who have watched the Mugen Train film can skip the first seven episodes as the latest season has a seven-episode arc by the same name. This will help the fans who missed the Mugen Train movie get onboard.

The “Mugen Train” arc will contain some new scenes and an entire episode focussing on Kyojuro Rengoku (Flame Hashira). Fans will get to know more of the “flamboyant” Tengen Uzui (Sound Hashira). He leads our dynamic squad through the bustling town of Yoshiwara to fight against Daki (Upper Moon Six).

We also see Tanjiro using his fire breathing style on Daki but, the breathing style hardly fazes the Upper Moon Six. Inosuke, Zenitsu, and Nezuko can be seen in the thick of things.

The plot of Demon Slayer

The story follows Tanjiro Kamado and his younger sister Nezuko, who has turned into a demon even after surviving the attack. The government does not recognize the Demon Slayer Corps, but only they can fight demons. Thus, the war between humans and demons is secret.

A member of the Demon Slayer Corps, who they met just after the attack on their family, advises them to join the Demon Slayer Corps. They take his advice and embark on a journey to find a cure for Nezuko’s condition.
