What’s Happening in Demon Slayer Season 3?
Demon Slayer Season 3 has been one of the biggest seasons yet as Tanjiro has headed to the swordsmith village in the hopes of getting his own sword fixed. But with Gyutaro’s defeat in the previous season of the series, Muzan has utilized the other members of the Upper Ranks to make up for the mistake. This means that Tanjiro is now involved in yet another fight against a powerful demon enemy, except he doesn’t have the backup from Zenitsu and Inosuke to help him out this time around.ย
But while he doesn’t have his closest friends, Tanjiro does have some surprising allies in the returning Genya Shinazugawa, and two members of the Hashira, the Mist Hashira Muichiro Tokiro and the Love Hashira Mitsuri Kanroji. The fights are only getting started in Demon Slayer Season 3, so now’s the best time to catch up with the new episodes now streaming on Crunchyroll as they air in Japan.ย
