Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba’s first season has been labeled by many as the best anime of the year.
The anime series is based on the popular Japanese manga of the same name. The adaptation has been done by studio Ufotable. This was announced in Weekly Shōnen Jump on June 4, 2018.
It had become very popular, and there is no doubt that there will be a second season.
Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming season:
Plot
The show follows the story of Tanjiro Kamado, a normal boy who lives with his family and makes a living by selling charcoal. One unfortunate day, his family is attacked by demons, and only his sister, Nezuko is left alive. However, she has been turned into a demon.
Now, it is up to Tanjiro to save her. He then goes on a mission to kill all the demons.
Season 1
The first season came out in April 2019 and ran till September of that year. The next season mostly won’t come out before 2021. This delay is caused due to the upcoming Demon Slayer film Demon Slayer Kimetsu no Yaiba: Infinity Train Arc, this year.
Season 2
The development of the second is yet to start. That means we can either get it as early as next year or a couple of years may go by before the project sees the light of the day.
Movie
Demon Slayer Kimetsu no Yaiba: Infinity Train Arc, the upcoming movie from the franchise is set to release in Fall, 2020. An official release date was not given.
It might get delayed because of the novel Coronavirus outbreak, but let’s hope for the best.
An update with a trailer for the movie is going to be released on April 10, though. So stay tuned and we will be back with more updates!
