Demon Slayer Season 4 Plot
As the name of the fourth season suggests, in the Demon Slayer-Hashira training arc, Tanjiro, along with his other demon slayer group, will test their abilities as they master other skills under various strenuous training.
Without giving away major spoilers, fans will also witness their popular demon slayers contesting against one of the most menacing demons like Doma, Akaza, Kokushibo, Demon King Muzan, and many more in season 4. Hence, rigorous training will only make them a worthy competitor.
Tanjiro visits Himejima, the Stone Hashira, who wants to get him ready for the next challenges, as becoming a Hashira requires extensive training. Even though it appears unattainable, Tanjiro is determined to win Himejima’s acceptance. Meanwhile, Nezuko and Ubuyashik’s whereabouts are still being sought after by demon ruler Muzan.
Fans will also see Nezuko breaking her shackles by not being the ‘sun-resistant demon’ that she was in the previous installments. As Nezuko slowly starts to turn immune to sunlight, this will surely grab Muzan’s attention, who in turn will start with his hunt to capture her. This specific season will provide fans with a total of 11 arcs that cover various manga chapters.
