While Koyoharu Gotôge's manga ended recently with a furious twenty-third volume, the anime version of Tanjirō Kamado's adventures continues. The enthusiasm of the fans is not denied, and the impatience is at its peak for the arrival of season 3, this Sunday, April 9!
Summary of events
Following the massacre of his family by a demon, and in search of a cure for his sister only survivor but at the price of his humanity, Tanjirō Kamado engages among the Demon Slayers. After many adventures, Tanjirô, Zen'itsu and Inosuke arrive, under the leadership of the Pillar of Sound, Uzui Tengen, at the famous Quartier des Plaisirs. A bloodthirsty demon would hide there…
But the Slayers are far from suspecting that their opponent will be the sixth Upper Moon, formed by the proud Daki and her cruel brother Gyūtarō. The outcome of the fight is more than uncertain, given the power and stratagems of the two creatures. Will our heroes be able to accomplish their mission?
Demon Slayer : The Train of Success
Remember: in 2020, after long months of confinement, the lights of the cities came back on… and those of the cinemas were extinguished to make way for the movies! Among them, Demon Slayer: The Infinity Train, sequel and transition between the first two seasons of the anime. Faced with the resounding success of the feature film, the traditional media remained amazed, and transcended fans could no longer wait for the sequel (after drying their tears…).
Three years and one season later, the Ufotable studios continue to amaze us, with a masterful animation and music to give chills. At the beginning of the year, they even decided to organize an event almost never seen before: the worldwide broadcast, during a single evening, of the last two episodes of the arc of the Quartier des Plaisirs… to which is added the very first episode of the arc of the Village of Blacksmiths, next step of our Slayers!
Demon Slayer: On the way to the blacksmith village, preview for war
For once, this new cinematic version of the franchise is enough to make our heads spin. Broadcast simultaneously in more than 80 countries and regions of the world, revised in 4K and with fully remixed music, the show lives up to expectations, even exceeds them, scatters them like a puzzle.
The spectator finds himself totally immersed in the action, he runs alongside Tanjirô, screams, suffers, grits his teeth, cries … The titanic battles are linked in a pyrotechnic deluge, without the animation having to suffer a single second. Everyone will also remember the stunning incursion into the heart of the Infinite Fortress of Muzan: unforgettable!
But here too, action is not the only way of thinking. The psychological finesse and tragic moments fit perfectly into the story, always giving more depth to the characters, even the most detestable.
This is the tour de force of Demon Slayer : to go beyond the shonen nekketsu to make it a complete work, with multiple ramifications and enchanting timbres, sometimes invigorating, sometimes melancholic.
The upcoming arrival of season 3 of Demon Slayer-Kimetsu no Yaiba promises to make our already filled hearts beat even harder. The tension is at its height! Muzan, determined not to lose face, is about to unleash his troops, while the clan of Demon Slayers, led by Kaguya Ubuyashiki, is about to lay down its last cards. In this struggle for survival, who will have the last word? You will find out by pushing the heavy door of the village of Blacksmiths ! And to wait, you can always read our review of the thirteenth volume of Shy, an atypical shonen !
