Synopsis
Following the Hashira Training Arc, Muzan Kibutsuji draws Tanjiro Kamado, the Hashira, and the wider Demon Slayer Corps into the vast, continually shifting Infinity Castle. Separated throughout the fortress, the Demon Slayers confront Upper Rank demons as the campaign against Muzan enters its decisive stage.
Officially released in Japan as the first chapter of the Infinity Castle trilogy, subtitled Akaza Returns, the film centers on several parallel battles. These include Shinobu Kocho’s encounter with Doma, Zenitsu Agatsuma’s confrontation with a figure from his training years, and Tanjiro and Giyu Tomioka’s battle against Akaza. It directly continues the television anime and begins the theatrical adaptation of the manga’s climactic storyline.
