Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is a Japanese anime television series based on Koyoharu Gotouge's manga series of the same name. The second season adapts from the 7th volume to the 11th volume (chapters 54–97) of the manga and ran for two continuous cours. The first part, titled Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Mugen Train Arc,[a] is a seven-episode recompilation of the "Mugen Train" arc as featured in the 2020 anime film. It contains new music and an all new anime original episode which takes place immediately before the main story. The first part aired from October 10 to November 28, 2021.[1][2] The second part, titled Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Entertainment District Arc,[b] aired eleven episodes from December 5, 2021, to February 13, 2022.[3] The season was directed by Haruo Sotozaki, with character designs by Akira Matsushima, and animation produced by Ufotable; staff and cast from the first season and Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train also returned.[4][5]
"Mugen Train" follows Tanjiro and his allies as they join Flame Hashira Kyojuro Rengoku on a mission inside a passenger train to face a hidden demon and rescue the passengers. "Entertainment District" takes place after the previous mission, where they assist Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui to investigate the disappearances of Tengen's wives while gathering information about a demon who terrorizes the red-light districts of Yoshiwara.
For the Mugen Train Arc, the opening theme is "Akeboshi" (明け星, lit. 'Morning Star') while the ending theme is "Shirogane" (白銀, lit. 'Silver'), both performed by Lisa. As is originally the case in the Mugen Train film, "Homura" (炎, Flame) is used as the ending theme for episode 7. For the Entertainment District Arc, the opening theme is "Zankyōsanka" (残響散歌, lit. 'Song of Reverberation') while the ending theme is "Asa ga Kuru" (朝が来る, lit. 'Daybreak'), both performed by Aimer.[2]
Aniplex of America licensed the season outside of Asia.[6][7] Muse Communication licensed the second season in Asia-Pacific.[8]
In October 2023, it was announced that the English dub of Mugen Train Arc would broadcast on Adult Swim's Toonami programming block which aired from November 12 to December 17 of the same year.[9] A month later, it was confirmed that Entertainment District Arc would also air which broadcast from January 14 to March 24, 2024.[10]

Flame Hashira Kyojuro Rengoku is tasked with finding an elusive demon plaguing a town, believing it may also be connected to numerous disappearances on the Mugen Train. He meets a pair of bento vendors and advises them on the risk of demons, before he soon locates the Mugen Train. After learning it is slated to be put back into service, he encounters the demon responsible for the attacks throughout the area. To spite him for his humanity, the demon decides to hunt down the bento vendors. Kyojuro tracks it down and kills it, saving the vendors; his actions remind the elderly vendor of when she herself was saved by the former Flame Hashira years ago. After realizing the demon is too weak for such numerous victims, Kyojuro boards the train to begin his investigation. | ||||||||||||

Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke meet Kyojuro on the train. After an explanation of the situation by the Hashira, they discover two demons hidden on board and witness Kyojuro's impressive abilities first hand. Into the night, all four Demon Slayers fall asleep, with Tanjiro dreaming about being reunited with his lost family. In actuality, they have fallen into the Blood Demon Art of Enmu; the demon had mixed his blood into the ink of their tickets, allowing his plan to go into motion without being noticed. As Tanjiro falls deeper into his slumber, Enmu finds joy that they may never awaken again. | ||||||||||||

Whilst the Demon Slayers are asleep, Enmu instructs four recruited passengers to tie their wrists to theirs, fall asleep, and enter their dreams.

Kyojuro's intruder finds his core, but his intensely strong spirit manages to stop her in the real world. Nezuko, who is unaffected by Enmu's Blood Demon Art, emerges from her box and tries to wake up Tanjiro. Though her attempts to do so fail, she is able to alert him that he is in a dream. In an ultimate attempt to wake himself up, Tanjiro slashes his own neck in order to regain consciousness. | ||||||||||||

When Zenitsu and Inosuke fail to awaken, Tanjiro climbs onto the roof to confront Enmu. Despite the demon repeatedly forcing him into unconsciousness, Tanjiro overcomes this by knowing to commit suicide to wake up, and eventually beheads him. However, Enmu does not die and reveals that he has fused with the entire train. Inosuke then awakens and assists Tanjiro in battling the demon. | ||||||||||||

Inosuke and Tanjiro fight Enmu from inside the train but find their attacks futile. Nezuko joins the fight but is nearly overwhelmed until Zenitsu's intervention. Kyojuro damages Enmu enough to stall his assault and explains his plan to Tanjiro; he himself, Zenitsu, and Nezuko will protect the passengers while he and Inosuke will search for Enmu's neck. They locate it at the train's locomotive, but Enmu continues to generate flesh as protection. The driver, wanting to protect him, stabs Tanjiro in the stomach. However, he perseveres, and, coordinating with Inosuke, successfully exposes Enmu's neck. Using his Hinokami Kagura, Tanjiro beheads Enmu, causing the train to derail and crashes into the ground. | ||||||||||||

After the train derails, Enmu disintegrates. Tanjiro struggles with his wound but manages to stabilize it under Kyojuro's guidance.

Appealing to his integrity as a Demon Slayer, he immediately refuses, causing Akaza to attack him. He orders Tanjiro and Inosuke to stay behind.

As Kyojuro succumbs to his injuries, he confides in Tanjiro messages for both his brother and father for him to give them. He accepts Nezuko as a member of the Demon Slayer Corps and encourages Tanjiro to "set his heart ablaze". He sees a vision of his proud mother before dying peacefully.

However, when he sees Tanjiro's earrings, he explains to him he is a bearer of the first breathing technique, called "Sun Breathing". Tanjiro accosts him for disrespecting Kyojuro, leading to a fight. Later, Senjuro thanks Tanjiro for passing him his brother's messages.

In order to investigate the suspected demonic presence in Yoshiwara, Tengen had sent his three wives to infiltrate the three largest courtesan Houses in the district. However, they stopped contacting him, causing him to worry. Tengen disguises Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu as girls and sells them to the three Houses in which his wives were deployed to find clues to their fate. Despite initial difficulty, all three are accepted to work at the Houses. As Tengen surveys the district from the rooftops, it is revealed that Makio, one of Tengen's wives, is held captive in a secluded room in Inosuke's House, being restrained by numerous obi and enduring interrogation from a mysterious female voice. | ||||||||||||

Inosuke investigates Makio’s room and discovers something moving through the ceiling and walls, though it evades him. Zenitsu defends a girl from being scolded by Warabihime, the House's oiran. He recognizes her as a demon but is attacked and knocked unconscious. Days before the mission had begun, the madam of the House confronts Warabihime, having determined her true identity, but Warabihime drops her onto the street to her death. She is then greeted by Muzan, who praises her and addresses the demon by her true name Daki: the Upper Rank Six. Later, Zenitsu wakes up and is tended to by the girls he had defended. After they leave, he is captured by Daki. | ||||||||||||

Realizing Zenitsu is missing, Tengen dismisses Tanjiro and Inosuke, not wanting them to risk their lives for the mission. The two refuse to abandon him and prepare themselves. Tengen interrogates the master of Zenitsu's House, who tells him about Warabihime. Tanjiro detects a demonic scent coming from his House and sees Daki absorbing the House's oiran into her obi. The two fight but she overwhelms Tanjiro with her numerous obi sashes; one of the straps on Nezuko's box breaks, forcing Tanjiro to leave her behind as he confronts Daki, readying himself to face the strongest demon he will have fought thus far. | ||||||||||||

The obi inside it is able to function independently from Daki's body; Inosuke first attempts to slay it but decides to prioritize freeing the people trapped inside.

During their battle, Daki's attacks lead to numerous casualties. Tanjiro angrily retaliates, using Hinokami Kagura to enhance his speed and power. She sees memories of a similar figure to Tanjiro, which she surmises belong to Muzan's cells in her body. Tanjiro pushes Daki on the defensive and nearly beheads her when he suddenly collapses; he had been fighting without sustaining his breathing and a vision from his late sister only saves him from suffocation. Daki prepares to kill Tanjiro when Nezuko intervenes. Remembering Muzan’s mention of a rogue demon, Daki attacks Nezuko, but is shocked to see her healing instantly. Nezuko then matures in appearance to face her. | ||||||||||||

Nezuko's increasingly powerful regeneration and Blood Demon Art overwhelms Daki, but she accidentally injures a bystander and her demonic bloodlust overwhelms her senses; she almost attacks them before Tanjiro intervenes. Tengen arrives and beheads Daki, doubtful she is an Upper Rank. However, she does not die, and instead, her brother Gyutaro emerges from within her body. Gyutaro, the true Upper Six, heals Daki and battles Tengen with his sickles and Blood Demon Art.

Taking Nezuko to safety, Tanjiro focuses on the battle despite his injuries. Tengen separates Daki from Gyutaro and is joined by the trio. Yoshiwara is evacuated by Suma and Makio, while Hinatsuru makes her way to Tengen. The Demon Slayers plan to behead the demons simultaneously but Daki engages Zenitsu and Inosuke, while Gyutaro fights Tengen and Tanjiro. Fighting as one, the demons gradually overwhelm their opponents, but Tanjiro, realizing his Water Breathing is more useful defensively, is able to fend off Gyutaro's attacks. Hinatsuru appears and fires wisteria-laced kunais at Gyutaro, paralyzing him and allowing Tengen and Tanjiro to reach his neck. | ||||||||||||

Gyutaro neutralizes the wisteria and fends off Tengen and Tanjiro, before grabbing Hinatsuru. Tanjiro combines his Hinokami Kagura and Water Breathing in a charge that stuns Gyutaro and saves her. Tengen joins him to slashing Gyutaro's neck, but he stops their blades and unleashes his Blood Demon Art, forcing Tengen to throw him and himself away. As Tengen fights Gyutaro, Tanjiro joins Zenitsu and Inosuke against Daki; he and Zenitsu open Inosuke's path, allowing him to behead her. He runs away with her head when Gyutaro stabs him from behind. Tanjiro looks for Tengen and sees him wounded and motionless. Devastated for not being able to help him, he freezes; Zenitsu pushes him off the roof away from Daki's obi. | ||||||||||||

Tanjiro survives his fall but is confronted by Gyutaro, mocking his inability to protect anyone. He offers to transform him but Tanjiro responds by head-butting him, secretly stabbing him with a laced kunai and attempting to behead him once more. Daki intervenes but is attacked by Zenitsu with his fastest form. Gyutaro removes the kunai and recovers. Before he can kill Tanjiro, Tengen, who halted the poison's effects, intervenes, battling Gyutaro despite his wounds. Tanjiro reaches Gyutaro's neck but is stabbed in the jaw. His scar transforms into a fiery mark, giving him the strength to slice through. Zenitsu loses momentum without cutting Daki's neck when Inosuke appears, having survived Gyutaro's attack. The demons are beheaded simultaneously, but in the aftermath, Gyutaro’s body erupts in blood blades, destroying the city. | ||||||||||||
44 | 18 (11) | "No Matter How Many Lives" Transliteration: "Nando Umarekawatte mo" (Japanese: 何度生まれ変わっても) | Hideki Hosokawa | Toshiyuki Shirai & Takashi Suhara | February 13, 2022[e] | March 24, 2024 | 9.1% | |||||
Nezuko burns the blood blades with her fire. Tanjiro reunites with Zenitsu, Inosuke, and Tengen, while Nezuko burns Gyutaro's poison from their bodies. She and Tanjiro set out to finish off the demons and find them insulting their relationship. As the demons fade, Gyutaro recalls their past. They were born in a red-light district into poverty and suffered from an abusive mother; despite his appearance burdening him, Daki, considered very attractive as a child, gave them a comfortable life. One day, she attacked a customer of hers and was burned in retaliation. Gyutaro found her and killed the people responsible. They were found by the Upper Rank Six of then and transformed. In the afterlife, the siblings reconcile and walk to Hell together. Serpent Hashira Obanai Iguro arrives, sarcastically praising Tengen for killing Upper Six. However, Tengen relinquishes his position and informs him of Tanjiro's potential. An increasingly ill Kagaya is overjoyed at the news, while Akaza is summoned to the interdimensional Infinity Castle, where he realizes that an Upper Rank has fallen. |
