Demon Slayer Season 4 Episode 1 Now Streaming
Officially titled “To Defeat Muzan Kibutsuji,” Demon Slayer: Hashira Training Arc Episode 1 runs for an hour and the synopsis for the episode teases what to expect from it as such, “In the village of the swordsmith, the two Upper Rank demons were defeated thanks to the efforts of Tanjiro and the two Hashira. And the existence of Nezuko, who has conquered the sun, foreshadows a big battle with Muzan Kibutsuji. Meanwhile, the Hashira gathered at the Ubuyashiki residence and a Hashira meeting was held.”
You can now stream the first episode of the new season with Crunchyroll (which has yet to confirm how many episodes it will last this Spring), but can also catch up on the first three seasons of Demon Slayer along with the Demon Slayer: Mugen Train Arc movie streaming there as well. There has yet to be an announcement for the release of the new season’s English dub as of the time of this publication, however. But if you wanted to check out the now complete original manga, you can find it in its entirety (with a paid subscription) with Viz Media’s digital Shonen Jump library or Shueisha’s MangaPlus service.
