Demon Slayer is Returning to Theaters For Season Three

Demon Slayer has become a major force to be reckoned with in the Shonen genre, with the series from Koyoharu Gotouge hitting the ground floor running and overtaking One Piece in manga sales since its debut in 2019. With the third season set to arrive next year, 2023 will air the Swordsmith Village Arc premiere on the big screen a month earlier than the small screen premiere via a "World Tour". Needless to say, Ufotable is celebrating the return of the Demon Slayer Corps with some big moves.            

The upcoming theatrical run will feature episodes ten and eleven from the Entertainment District Arc in Season Two, while also premiering the third season's opener, which will run an hour on its own. This event is set to premiere in the United States and Canada beginning on March 3rd, with an early premiere in Los Angeles, California, slated to arrive on February 18th. On top of these regions, the theatrical run will hit the world over as Paris, Berlin, Mexico City, Seoul, and Taipei will also feature a two-day event to get fans prepped for the return of the Demon Slayer Corps. On top of all this news, the Los Angeles premiere will also bring the voice of Japan's Tanjiro, Natsuki Hanae, along with producer Yuma Takahashi and a performance from Aimer.

Demon Slayer On The Big Screen

The Official Demon Slayer Twitter Account shared the new information when it came to this theatrical release, with the third season set to begin its television run this April and looking to not just feature the Swordsmith Village Arc, but give fans a new look at Muzan's top lieutenants in his demonic army:

The Demon Slayer Corps suffered two major blows in season two when it came to the Flame Hashira Rengoku and the Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui, as the former was killed during his fight with Akaza in the Mugen Train Arc, and the Entertainment District Arc saw the latter losing a number of body parts while fighting the demon Gyutaro. Luckily for Tanjiro and his friends, there are more Hashira where they came from and the Swordsmith Village Arc is set to introduce some wild new concepts to the series that sprung from the mind of creator Koyoharu Gotouge.
