Demon Slayer: Mugen Train became one of the most popular, and profitable, anime movies to ever be released not only in Japan, but in the world at large, and hot on its heels, the second season will be arriving later this year with a new trailer being released. With the next arc of the anime franchise focusing on the Entertainment District Arc, which will introduce Tanjiro and his friends to the Sound Hashira, the popular Shonen franchise is looking to have a big 2021 as their upcoming journey will see them venturing to the estate of Rengoku’s family following the insane events of the first movie.
A precise release date has yet to be revealed as to when we can expect the next season of Demon Slayer to arrive, though both Funimation and the producers behind the popular series, Ufotable, have promised that we can expect the Entertainment District Arc to arrive later this year. Mugen Train became one of the most popular anime movies of all time since it hit theaters in Japan and spread across the world, and the events that took place within it are a must for those looking forward to season two, as the battle against the powerful demons both on and off the train will have major ramifications on the series moving forward.

Demon Slayer’s manga story came to a close, with Koyoharu Gotouge still tight-lipped as to whether we’ll see a sequel series for the insanely popular Shonen franchise. Though we aren’t sure how many more seasons and/or movies that the anime franchise will spawn, it’s clear that fans are dying to see more of the world of the Demon Slayer Corps.
