Season 3 of Demon Slayer officially approaches the arc of the Village of swordsmen. Without wanting to divulge the rest of the story in the manga, fans of Demon Slayer believe that the new season will cover chapters 100 to 127 of the original work. An expectation based on the fact that the arc The Pleasure District of season 2 was inspired by chapters 77 to 99.
Unless there is a major change, the plot should focus on Tanjiro, who goes to the village of swordsmen in order to obtain a new weapon from Hotaru Haganezuka. Indeed, his sword was considerably damaged during his fight against Daki and Gyutaro, alongside Tengen Uzui, at the end of season 2.
It will then be revealed that the village in question is home to a secret weapon. However, the situation is not as simple as it looks, as new Hashiras will appear in the story, including the Pillar of Love, Mitsuri Kanroji, and that of The Mist, Muichiro Tokito. .

Of course, let’s not forget the demons, without which the anime wouldn’t be as exhilarating. Fans should therefore expect to see a higher-tier demon or two land in Season 3.
Besides that, we also know that the end of the arc The Pleasure District of the second season gave us a glimpse of the direction the series will likely take from season 3 of Demon Slayer. Tengen is out of the game, but still alive. He told Iguro that his eventual replacement for the Hashira title would be Tanjiro. From this moment, the Demon Slayer Corps will finally be able to reach their ultimate target: Muzan Kibutsuji.

Apart from this feat achieved by the protagonists, we also remember the dramatic death of Rengoku in the arc Infinite Train. Tanjiro, on the other hand, survives the battle. The same goes for his friends Nezuko, Zenitsu and Inosuke. The core of the series therefore remains intact at the end of the second season.
As for Tengen Uzui, fate was not so kind to Hashira du Son. Indeed, from the start of the last episode of season 2, Tengen loses an eye, then a hand. He is then affected by the poison that coats Gyutaro’s sickles. Tengen Uzui seemed to be about to follow in Rengoku’s footsteps, when a last-ditch intervention by Nezuko saved him, allowing him to survive.

The protagonists will be joined by two notable characters, which we have already glimpsed a little earlier in the series. Namely the Pillar of the Mist Muichiro Tokito as well as Hashira of love, Mitsuri Kanoki.
Expect more Hashiras to appear in future seasons, as well as other members of the Upper Twelve Moons/Twelve Kibuki. An Upper Moon, Doma, is also set to appear in Season 3 of Demon Slayer.
Will they finally defeat the Demon King?
Defeating Daki and Gyutaro, two higher ranked Moon Demons is no small feat. In fact, Kagaya Ubuyashiki, the leader of the Demon Slayer Corpsconsiders this victory as an omen indicating that they will finally defeat Muzan, thanks to the current generation.
If there’s anything to be happy about, Demon Slayers aren’t in great shape. They are already missing a Hashira after Rengoku’s death, and now Tengen is retiring. The most observant fans will also notice that Kagaya’s condition is worsening. The mark of curse now covers more than half of his face. In any case, the moment of truth draws nearer with the future release of season 3. Will our heroes defeat Muzan?
